Hall Of Famer reveals reasons Dak & Cowboys struggle and lose on the road in 2023

[America's Cowboy]

Lots of very good points made. Must watch...



PS: For those (ie... Brian Baldinger, etc) claiming Dak missed and did not throw it to a wide open Ferguson inside the Red Zone for a TD against the Dolphins, go to the 8:45 minute mark on the video above. Here is a still pic below. Clearly, Ferguson was covered early while Chuma Edoga intentionally allowed Edge rusher Chubbs to come through untouched to pressure Dak, hence Dak was forced to look to his right and force an incomplete pass. Ferguson only got open after the DB sitting in the middle moved off of Ferguson after noticing Dak look elsewhere for a throw...

Edoga's constant moves to the inside on passing plays leaving the DE open baffles the crud out of me.

Edit: Monster lanes wide open for Dak to run forward though, tbh.

Dak wouldn't have gotten far if he tried to run with the ball. It was 3rd & Goal from the 15 yard line with 2 DBs sitting in the middle just in case Dak decided to run.

Gotcha.

 

[America's Cowboy]

Gotcha.

Had Chuma Edoga blocked Chubbs and given Dak an extra 2 - 3 seconds, Dak could have found Ferguson getting open late in his route for a potential TD. Our Oline has been horrible all year and costing our team big time during these 5 losses.

Need to get rid of Tyron. It’s 4 years overdue.

Ship Martin out for draft picks and average down the cost of the OL.

Invest in the OL.

But people believe we have a top 5 oline. I just laugh when I hear that statement.

Wow. Totally throwing the blame on Coach Mac. Have a lot of respect for Marshall Faulk too. Smart player and maybe one of the few guys who proved a great offense with small defense could win it all.

When tyron is playing, I still think we do. People here want the 2016 oline so bad, but y'all gotta realize those olines don't happen often, our oline when healthy is definitely good enough to win a Superbowl

When Tyron and Martin play the offensive line is one of the best in the league. You saw that when we beat quality teams like the Rams, Eagles and Seattle during our win streak. Once Martin got the quad injury everything went downhill. Just get healthy for the playoffs and take your chances.

Dude, you always post Brian Baldinger videos when he praises Dak, but the moment he says might have missed a player, you look to discredit what he said lol come on. These last two games were horrible games for the offense, Dak included

Go to the 8:49 mark and pause. If Dak just looks up, Ferg is WIDE open. All he has to do is throw the ball and it's a TD. The nearest defender is over 5 yards away from Ferg. Dak still had time to scan the field and throw the ball. Chubbs is behind Dak and no longer has any influence on the play.

Well! I hope you had a lousy Christmas!

Faulk has always hated the Cowboys for some reason. He and Irvin used to get into it when they were at NFL Network

Let's not forget Dak underthrowing Tolbert and Tolbert saving a backbreaking INT by fighting for the ball away from the defender.
Ya know, because the team always lets the Great Dak down.

Meanwhile on that near-INT our best playmaker was in the flat wide open with no one around him.

What is so hard to understand about Dak seeing color (Chubbs) coming at him from the left side, thus being forced to look off of Ferguson and look elsewhere to his right as he is forced to run right in order to avoid getting sacked? Yes, it's easy to be an armchair QB and say, "Hey, Ferguson got open after Dak was impatient and looked elsewhere." But you guys are not the ones on the field feeling the pressure while your peripheral vision shows you a different colored jersey storming in on you from the left side at the hike of the ball.

Sorry if your feelings got hurt, but Baldinger is absolutely wrong on this play.

What do ya think? Talent? Individual lack of awareness/adhering to the play-call, or coaching?

It wasn't an underthrow. Just didn't lead the receiver on that 45+ yard bomb. It was up for grabs and Tolbert came down with the ball. Had it been underthrown, the DB would have come up with that ball.

As for CeeDee, he got open late after Dak had looked elsewhere.

All of the above.

Should have kept both Connor Williams and Connor McGovern. Both left to other teams for only $7 mil/year contracts each. Both have greatly improved playing for other teams while having different Oline coaches.
