19th in the league in redzone offense with 50%, down 10% since last year.

63.2% @ home, 30.8% away.

18th in the league in offensive 3rd down conversion percentage

Although we have the most experienced offensive line in the nfl (based on colombo)

18th in rush attempts (6th in yards)

We're very highly ranked when it comes to rushing attempts to the left or up the middle on first down, but very low ranked when it comes attempts to the right

We have the 4th most rushes with negative yards when rushing up the middle

Our power rushing is absolutely horrible on the left, average on center, and rated highly on the right.

We have never failed to get a first down on 3rd or 4th down and short when rushing to the right. On the left its 50%, and the middle is 69 percent. That said for some reason garrett runs left and throught the middle more often than to the right.

16th most qb hits allowed
15th most sacks allowed


Some of the last few teams we played (some of it self fulfilling i guess)

3rd Down defenses
#2 Philly
#3 Green Bay
#6 New York Giants
#9 Oakland
#10 Washington

Nice stats.

The redzone efficiency is absolutely shocking to me.

I thought we would be top five for sure in red-zone percentage. With Barber, Witten, Bennett, Roy, and now Austin, and throw in Crayton and Choice, and I thought we would have an excellent red-zone offense.

However the "power-running" numbers are not surprising at all. I said just a little bit ago I dont trust this team to be a run-first, power run team that many want.

With this group, I want to pass to set up the run. I'm not saying I dont want balance, I'm saying I want to pass to set up the run.

Yea, we are a passing team when it comes down to it. Sure we can get alot of running yards, but when it is money time it is the pass that gets us points.

Say whatever you want, we are built to be a run first team that can kill you on play-action. If you want Romo to take shotgun snaps like Brady then we need to go get 2 more receivers that can play. We have 3 receivers that have any kind of real game experience, do you want Hurd to be the target on a 3rd and 7 down by 3 in the 4th? We saw how well that worked out in Denver.

Romo can and should be taking snaps from under center. Romo is accurate and mobile with a quick release, he shouldn't be sitting on an island with a collapsing pocket. The 2-TE formation is great, it's just a shame that everyone and their mother knows that Bennett is not going to get the ball. I'd stick a linebacker on him and call it a day, he's basically just an extra blocker.

This is not college. Yes you need to pass to be able to win, but too often we handicap our running game by running these slow developing run plays against good defenses. Fast defenses aren't going to gashed by a shotgun draw. That's why we have trouble against 3-4's, their speedy linebackers just blow up the draw as soon as they see the handoff.Anyone see the Commanders get blown up by McCoy? We could and were doing that, and then we went away from it. Why?

We're 8-3 and I couldn't be happier. I just wish our offense were as tough as our defense. Put Romo under center, let him make his presnap reads in a formation that the defense can't read like a book, and get the backs out of the backfield quickly. We are too good to be stopped by any defense in the NFL for 3 quarters. Dom Capers, one of the most respected defensive coordinators in the league even said we didn't run the ball enough. A defensive coordinator will not shut you out for 45 minutes if he's not keen to your predictability. When you're built like us up front, you make them stop the run. When they start inching the safeties and linebackers up you use play action. Why is this so hard to understand and implement for us?

My guess is that we have an offensive coordinator that was a former QB and learned how to call plays from his Playstation.

Yeah it is baffling.
You would think with players link Roy and Bennett that we should be close to a slam dunk with it comes to jumpball/fades in the end zone. And yet we dont even try it.

Baffling.
