Moore showed nothing much different but the execution was crisp, precise

Glad to see the offense back to what we are accustomed. Dak looked healthy and spry tonight.
 
Unless you watched the All22 film already (which isn't out yet for this game), you won't know for sure if KM did anything different or not.
You don’t have to view the all-22 to recognize different alignments and motions. The counter draw plays was one very obvious difference and they absolutely paid huge dividends. The shotgun toss sweep to Zeke was also something new.

We've done counter trey runs earlier in the season and we've done shotgun toss sweep to Pollard also.
 
I thought Moore pushed the call down the field more than in previous weeks. The biggest difference is there were not as many propped passes this week. Or receivers made some great catches. Zeke and Pollard were also alot more effective running the ball that also helped loosen the defense.
 
Is that what they call running on all cylinders?

Seems that the Cowboys put in lots of OT in getting ready and playing on the same page.
TDs to Zeke, Schultz, and Steele were essentially the same play.

Dak sold the play action SO well on all 3 (especially the Steele TD)

Execution was the key.
 
More under center, counter, misdirection and toss runs, only 1 bubble screen that was on first down not third.

A lot of the plays were stuff they had been running but they clearly changed some things up with the game plan.
 
If we hit some of those deep throws it gets even nastier.

Let’s hope our QB and Wr’s get on the same page down there because the Wr’s we’re open and the ball was thrown a few times.

Just seems Dak and the WR’s are still off touch in that regard.

CeeDee dropping that screen also.

More tuning but we’re on our way.

I watch All 22 every week, and... you are incorrect. You can gauge enough about an offensive gameplan to see differences in scheme / playcalling without it.

You can if the difference is huge. The difference wasn't huge last night.

I think the 2 biggest passes downfield were on offsides plays where Dak had no worries and let it rip!

Two main things I saw:

We used far more outside runs than in the first game. That might have been because of having Pollard back, but even with Elliott we were attacking the edges. A good example of that was Elliott's TD run. We went from Moore basically saying outside runs aren't all that important (paraphrasing) to him regularly using them.

The other thing was we essentially had all the wide receivers attacking the two-deep safeties, forcing them to choose who to cover. That was our zone buster. Defenses had been taking away the deep routes by essentially doubling the two deepest receivers and then zoning underneath the shorter routes, causing us to hold the ball. We got all three of the receivers out into those deeper routes, too deep for the linebackers to get under, and then ran the tight end and back underneath to keep the linebackers occupied. I'd have to go back and look, but I think we used the second tight end much less this time, so that we could force Washington to worry about those receivers more. If I'm correct, we mainly only played second-tight end/fullback when we brought in McGovern.
