Is it impossible to call a RB screen?

Have you seen the results of screens we run the last 3 years? It's a debacle. On offense and defense s reens kill us.

Screens require pocket poise and pinpoint accuracy to maximize space between players.

It's been more than 3 years. I can't even remember when we used to be good at running the screen consistently or defending it. It's always boggled me.

I'm glad they don't call it. The Cowboys are TERRIBLE at screens.

I wish they practice it and be at least decent at it. I remember when the Cowboys were one of the best in league at it.

A screen would have been a good call on 2nd down on the final offensive series of regulation.

Not a single one called all game and probably only a handful the ENTIRE year.

We have one of the best RB's in the league in space...I just don't get it.
I think screens and pick plays must be really too hard for our players. Otherwise, I’m sure boy genius would use them like every other team in the league instead of reverses and option pitches.

I’m not piling on or being funny, but Prescott throws a terrible screen. They’re often late and high so the RB has to leave his feet and loses time to get moving.

Kellen will only call a screen after a triple fake handoff in the backfield
