Jerry Jones on @dfwticket on what he's excited about with the Cowboys' offensive changes: "It's Dak-friendly. He's going to have an offensive line that is going to be able to protect him better, their spacing is narrower, which is conducive to protection. He's going to have more opportunities to dump the ball off to the backs. He's going to have less to do before the snap, and less to read after the snap. The receivers are going to be less dependent upon reading the d-back and Dak reading the d-back. It's going to be more about being at a spot where they should be. The (combination) of all of it, and all of it is adjustments, not dramatic changes. When you combine it all then I'm confident that we're going to be excited about how it protects Dak and how it actually helps efficiency for Dak."

Here we go Dak-Friendly # 3 coming soon............... :muttley:

Those comments by Jerry say that, we will win in spite of Dak….not because of Dak”…….imagine what the playbook would look like if a truly talented Qb like Burrow or Herbert was here?….no dumbing down whatsoever
Except that maybe this is the SAME offense that "the great aaron rodgers" used.

Dak's best year was his rookie year where he was functionally asked to do the least. I know joking about Jerry and downplaying optimism fits the bill after decades of playoff failures but IMO everything I am reading is going in the right direction.

The big caveats to this are the O line and RB2. If the team can't run the ball, this will fall apart quickly.

Seems people forget the "Romo" Friendly offense and how Jerry said how he's paying Romo like Peyton and how he expects to put the Peyton hours in.

The same offense that Rodgers used was one of the most “pass happy” offense in the entire NFL and in fact the running game was an afterthought.

we’ve been told that this offense is now going to put a new emphasis on running the ball so how can it be he SAME offense?

i should also remind you that NONE of us has seen the new playbook or even a single play run in a game.

my comments are based on JERRYS OWN WORDS……not on hypothetical offenses that we’ve yet to see

Yep, exactly.
There's enough data which shows that this QB seems to win a whole lot more when there's dominant run support.
The answer is definitely NOT in throwing MORE.

REGARDLESS of offense or playcaller.

Hilarious comments from Jerry.

What that means is Dak will have a A-B option, if he come to line and sees the Safety is up, A pass, if the Safety back, B run, simple that way you don't have to think about or try to read the umbrella

This is hilarious. Dak needs offense for dummies and he’s being paid like an elite player. How Jerry reconciles the absolute contradictions he spews daily is beyond me. Dude is a con man.

I disagree with the comments alluding to the "same old same old". What I read are some specifics that I was hoping to see change that this team clearly has struggled with. Dak definitely struggled to identify both pre and post snap and there was absolutely confusion between he and the WRs on where everyone should/will be. This is exactly what we needed to hear, I'm just wondering why it is coming from the owner instead of the coaches...

That's easy enough. As it's always been post Parcells...
The Owner, GM and HC are one in the same.
