Is Jason Garrett = Mike Martz?

IF we are talking Rams Mike Martz....yes

IF we are talking Lions Mike Martz....no
 
Not even close. Martz doesn't use the TE. He doesn't really care about the run. He doesn't leave extra blockers in to protect the QB. Just because Garrett is a pass-first OC, doesn't mean that's all he does. It is a pass-first league, after all.

No way.

Our offense is nothing like Martz's Rams'. Nothing.

Based on some games, especially the GB game last year, I'd disagree with you.

I know Witten gets a lot of catches, but I really don't think Garrett uses him, or Marty B for that matter, well. Both of them can move but how often does he use them for anything other than a short out or comeback as a check down. You don't need a terrific pass catching TE to do that, and we have one - with potential for another.

Regardless, our offense is nothing like the offense that Mike Martz runs.

They have the 1999 Rams playbook available to download. It's awesome, go check it out, and you'll see its nothing like ours.
 
All i know is that Garrett ****ing sucks. Abysmal playcalling, if i were wade I'd smack the **** out of him and tell him to stop running this cutesy finesse offense.
 
Why, oh why does Garrett not run the football. Is it because we cannot? I dont believe that with the backs we have. Do you know that Romo threw the ball 550 times last year? That is way too many. Garrett is picking up where he left off last year. (Passing on 3 rd and short for example)

Yeah that power approach really worked last year against SD too. :rolleyes:

If you were Wade you'd be fired by now because you obviously have little IQ if you're complaining about how bad Garrett is in the preseason, after he fielded a top 5 offense last year.

Is he perfect? No, but I'm sick of fans like you who think they have all the answers just because things don't always go our way on offense.

Romo is the 2nd maybe 3rd best player on this team, and a top ten quarterback in the league -- and it's a passing league.

Put the ball in his hands.

I don 't think i have all the answers, when you pull **** like that 3rd and 1 rollout play you deserve to get popped in the mouth. I don't care if it's preseason or not.

I respect that, yes he is good and has alot of weapons at WR...Maybe I just long for the days of #22:cry: :cry:

I didn't see the play so I can't comment on it, but you may be right.

However, it is the preseason though. We always start out the season hot, so let's hold off on this unless we stumble coming out of the blocks -- which I dont think will happen. Then it will be deserved.

Haha yeah, we all are for sure.

I'd be lying if I said at times I didn't scream at Garrett to run the ball more -- we all have.

But I think fans in general overreact whenever something doesn't go our way, and then point to the playcall and say "Garrett should have done ___" -- the opposite of whatever was called.

Just because we throw a pick or an incomplete pass doesn't mean that a running play would have been successful.

People have short memories, Dallas looked awful in preseason last year as well. If they struggle to score vs Washington I will start worrying until then I am just hoping for no major injuries.
