This I think we ALL can agree .......is sweet music

What am I missing here?

Aaron Rodgers.

 

[slick325]

Aaron Rodgers.

Lol

I love the zoomed in horizontal scale that makes it look as drastic as the discrepancy between interceptions by the Dallas secondary vs. league leaders.

 

[LandryDay]

Im excited to see how our team performs with a headcoach.

 

[Bigdog]

Aaron Rodgers.

That’s funny. I don’t care what anyone says.

 

[big dog cowboy]

Dak's feeling it!

 

[Bob-Lillys-War]

Yeah, this might not work in dallas.

 

[ghst187]

Yeah, this might not work in dallas.

I tend to agree...esp when we have a strong OL and Zeke. Second and third and short is exponentially higher % to convert than 3rd and 10.

 

[RustyBourneHorse]

I could see us doing a few first down short passes to Zeke. Sort of an extended handoff.

 

[jazzcat22]

Or they could disguise plays better and just run Zeke.

 

[reddyuta]

Yeah, this might not work in dallas.

why not? we have Zeke for petes sake and those GB teams didnt.if teams continue to stack the box then we need to pass on early downs .

Yes they never had a strong RB like Zeke in GB, so pretty much had to pass more.
However we do have Blake Jarwin at TE as the starter for sure now over slow footed Witten. We have options.

 

[tyke1doe]

Aaron Rodgers.

Ba-da bing!

 

[Nav22]

I like it.

Unless you’re trying to run out the clock, 2nd and 7 doesn’t thrill me. It’s practically a win for the defense.

And when the D expects a run (or at least has to honor it) as they would on 1st and 10, that makes it easier to pass successfully.

Amari was a beast on 1st and 2nd down too.

Excellent find to tie it all together.

 

[Cowboys22]

While I would love to see more unpredictable play calling, being saddled with 2nd and 10 effectively takes the OL and Zeke out of the game. Passes on 1st down need to be play action high percentage plays designed to get an easy 5-8 yards so that they can be unpredictable again on 2nd down. I really don’t want Dak trying to complete 15-20 yard throws on 1st down on a regular basis. That has 3 and out written all over it.

Wow...must've been Aaron Rodgers throwing Amari the ball too lol. No way it could've been Dak.
