Sanchez also said that is normal for most offensive’s … you run various formations of that…

To be fair, that's a little on Dak too for not reading the defense and calling an audible (or if he did audible, for getting tricked into doing so). He's the field commander after all. But you're right, it's mostly on Kellen and his playbook. He needs to go.
Dak had never been and will never be a field commander.

I believe it. Way too often it seems like the defense knows exactly what’s coming. Jumping and sitting on routes too. Like they were in the huddle.


When they're all curl routes it's easy to stop

I would also like to see the % of time that a play is “killed” at the line and it’s a run. Seems like 99% of the time it’s a run and the D knows it.

Red (run to the right)
Blue (run to the left)

Both runs were stuffed for losses. Are our audibles that simplistic?


Study any team and you too can do the same exact thing most of the time. Romo does it all the time cause he watches tape of the teams before he calls their game so he knows what to look for. At this point in the year we know what everyone is doing by formations etc. Tendencies are what they are because it's what they do given personnel and situations.

Yea. One of the booth guys said Ball missed his block. It didn't matter at all because the safety on the left side had already knifed thru and tackled Zeke in the backfield. Dak should have seen that safety on the line and kept the ball. He could have strolled right in.
yep the qb needs to read and adjust to what def shows presnap and post snap.

Not sure but he said this in a previous game and many teams use red and blue for the direction, which seems kinda stupid?
you could use it to fool a team, by using blue for left then on one play say blue and go right lol..

Moore is a *******,he cannot self scout his own playcalling and not change anything which is not working forever.

The announcers do this every game for every team. It’s also important to remember, or maybe most fans just don’t know, that the angles the announcers have and that you have on TV give insight into plays that defensive players at field level from their vantage point don’t get. This is one reason why most coordinators prefer a booth rather than being on the field. If you know what you’re looking at even most educated fans can guess roughly what’s about to happen based on alignment, motion, situation and personnel. For instance, our first touchdown today was either going to be a dive to Zeke or an end around to Pollard. Those are literally the only two things you’d ever run out of that combination of wide side receiver/tackle alignment with the lone short side wide out coming in motion. The fact that said wide out was Tony Pollard makes it even more obvious. You had a 50% chance of being right just by knowing basics of offensive football.

If every defensive player had access to the pre snap view of the play from the TV angle the average score of an NFL game would be 10-7. The most challenging pre snap aspect of playing defense is the lack of relative depth and movement perception. It’s much harder to read linem
Every team does this every week
It’s not rocket science

So this means he should be our next offensive coordinator or head coach right? Right?

He's trusted by the coaches and players to call audibles. Like it or not, that makes him the offense's field commander. It's part and parcel of being QB.

If I remember right, back in the 90s, the offense only had three running plays. The defenses knew what was coming but couldn't stop it. If that's the case here, I'm not too concerned what butt fumble has to say.
