Last Series: All Pass Plays

[khiladi]

So on every single play of the last series, up to within the last three plays within the five, every single play was a pass with close to three minutes to play. From the way things looked, not a single call had a run as the primary play. Murray was lined up directly next to Romo and based upon what I could gather, he was clearly looking pass blocking and safety valve.

One of the benefits was that apparently, the Commanders didn't blitz essentially that whole drive, playing conservatively. And we all know how horrendous this offense is in the blitz.

This raises the issue, if what I'm seeing is correct, in the context of Aikman "raising the question" about the claim that Romo audibles in many situations. Based upon what I saw, especially in this clutch situation, the team goes with what it always does, which is rely solely on Romo's arm. The long play to T. Will, Romo bought time with his feet and as soone as he saw TWills man slips, he signaled to move in and tossed it. There was safety help on that dies but the slip helped.

I think this argument about audibling is BS.

Just imagine how much of Garrett's nonsense romo changed on that final drive.

We will never know though because romo would never call out Garrett because he has class.

Garret's offense can not pass protect haslets defense in Washington, the line is always confused yet romo bails them out.

One more week of Garrett. Then it's cigar time.

A year and they still couldn't figure out the blitz... This coaching staff sucks

 

[Temo]

To be clear, you're talking about the 5 plays that took the cowboys from their own 13 to the opponent 4?

 

[texbumthelife]

Are you talking about our last drive? I could have sworn there were a few runs...

 

[Boyzmamacita]

Who else was worried that we were leaving too much time on the clock? I'm glad it worked out.

If you think that argument is BS, you're delusional. Romo has admitted to doing it several times and other players and coaches have all mentioned it. It's happened.

A year? It's been four years.

We are always confused in protection against them. Four years.

Our last drive, up until they tried punching it in. I don't remember a single run. They had the come back to TWill on the right sideline. The long pass play. The screen to Dez. And the pass to Murray.

They only tried running it when they were within around five from scoring and failed three times, one time a horrific pitch play. Was that pitch an audible?

I'm not sure coaching changes anything. Roster is full of losers who can't and won't win anything.

I couldn't like this post more than I do.

 

[blackbull]

I was mad we didn't run any

 

[reddyuta]

you can bet your last dollar the sheagles will continue to blitz romo,they didnt fogure out the blitz in philly either.

I was paranoid about it. I was actually thrilled that we made them use their timeouts...

Audibling versus exaggerated audibling is the point. He did audible to Dez on the second to last series, just missing him, but Dez was wide open, meaning the audible was a good call.

Yeah..

A real head coach would get more out of the players by helping them and be able to control the jones family.

Coaching matters. Nothing overcomes injuries but coaching matters big time.

just like a real general manager matters and real structure.

The play calling either run or pass really blurs.

With this team it comes down to Romo.

Romo with this performance and his creativity is second to none in the NFL.

He wants the ball in his hand and is willing to endure what obviously was a significant injury.

Hand it to him.

He deserve the love.

Second to none?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!??!!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

 

[Next Years Champ]

Second to none?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!??!!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

Yes..in the 4th Qt with 5 minutes or less..

Romo has the best record in the NFL.

They have been running that stat now for the last 3 games at least.
