You know why we never see our receivers run rub routes, or ever see them stacked up to one side? Because the offense relies on our WR to win their one on one battles. That's why Moore calls so many option routes. In order for a WR to excel in the offense, he has to be able to cut on a dime or make contested catches. So we're talking about speed or strong hands.
A.Cooper could cut on a dime, but he always had plantar fasciitis. T Austin couldn't catch. Injuries caught up with Dez. But none of that matters. If the play caller keeps calling the same plays over and over again every receiver on this team will struggle. You can't beat a DB who knows what you are about to do. The only player I've seen that could constantly get open in our system was Cole Beasley.
The play calling has to help the receivers get open at times. Expecting these guys to get open all by themselves is a fool's errand. So, Dak has had a very nice collection of WR's, what he hasn't had is an excellent play caller. First it was Garrett handcuffing the offense, now it's Moore. And even though the offense is being held back by it's play caller, Dak and the guys still find ways to win.
