Jerry on how to get the run game going

[Nova]

The RB position is probably the one that Jerry understands the least.

I should have just listed my reasons in a file somewhere in my computer so I can just copy it. I don't have the energy or time right now to write a dozen paragraphs.

Suffice it to say, if you look at the history of the position since Jerry became owner, you will see Emmitt's holdout, Barbers promotion to franchise back, the free agency departure of Murray, and the contract of Zeke.

Do Jerry's actions indicate that he knows what he is talking about?

man that's a really good point. Never really thought about it that way.

But also, HB is only part of the problem right now

I always thought it was run to open the passing game.

 

[John813]

Is it schotty or Solari

Mix of both. They both were together in Seattle from 2018-21.

Cowboys have to hurt teams who are playing more coverage and defending the run with light boxes.

 

[Hadenough]

Why aren't they asking McCarthy? Jerry should be seen but not heard as a GM and owner.

 

[Doomsday]

Defenses aren't loading up to stop the run though. Eagles played their safeties deep most of the game.

Can someone please shut this moron up?
Oh, and his son while youre at it

Better run blocking.

I don’t find it coincidental that the run game has been far worse now that Schottenheimer has introduced his new OL blocking scheme.

Last few years they did a lot more ZBS, and now they pull guys. Idk, hope these guys figure it out.

I wonder what the SanFran, KC, or Philly owner would have said if asked that very question?

Actually...we all already know: "You'll have to ask the coaches about that"

 

[ClappingCarrot]

Shout out to Coach Jerry here for the analysis.

 

[Bobhaze]

Wow…What a football genius. I hope he has shared this deep insight with his coaches.

Why do you listen to this Dumbo GM? Cowboys threw the ball from 1989 until 11-18-1990 with the same results you have now. Then Jimmy Johnson got rid of the OC and ran the game plan through the running game of Emmitt Smith. I was at that Rams game in Anahiem. The Cowboys then went on a 4 game winning streak running the ball, passing to score, and resting the defense to attack fresh. 3 Super Bowls latter the rest is Dallas Cowboys HISTORY not Jerry Dumbo GM Jones Arlington Jonesboys STORY.

No running game is established with the pass. You pass to score and run to win. Defense wins championships. As long as there is football, that will never change.

I remember that game well and exactly where I was.

That was arguably when that team began their run. IMO it 100% was.

I don’t know if your theory is correct or not, but something DID click that day and they went on a run thereafter until Aikman went down.

Agree with the run blocking being part of the problem. As for the blocking scheme, it falls more on Mike Solari. He is the Oline coach. Plus, he's the one who allowed McGovern to leave and Farniok get cut. Not so great moves, especially concerning the run game (or lack of it).

Are you new here?

Correction: It all starts with the Oline.

If you don't have a good Oline that can run and pass block we'll, along with have good backups, it won't matter who you have a QB, RB, FB, TE and WR.

I get it.

But an elite RB will make a great OL look impressive.

Scrubs RBs do the opposite.

We went through this in 2015.

And then 2016 happened with Zeke.

We have All Pro and Pro Bowl OL.

Steele is a problem. But he will improve.
