Next man up doesn't work here

[Jarv]

How about next coach up?

This is what happens when your coaches rely on simplistic schemes that rely so strongly in your man just beating the man across from him.

Once your starter gets injured, your back up is almost certainly not at talented as the other teams starter.

The players are not put in advantageous positions.

Also when you spend huge chunks on your starters leaving limited funds for your backups.

High paid players makes it tougher. This is where drafting and player development comes in.

Yup. And on top of that, player evaluation. And we've been notoriously weak at that.

Remember when they were touting Sam Young as the next greatest thing? Funny stuff!!!

Oh how we forget what happened when Sean Lee got hurt or when Romo got hurt lol.

 

[LucaBrasi]

Teddy Bridgewater is 4-0. I just watched Devlin Hodges win a road game.


Either coach them better or build a better roster. Every building in the NFL has significant injuries. Do not try and sell “this us the deepest team we’ve ever had here” like the GM tried to.

Jerry should heed Mark Twain - “Better to remain silent and thought a fool, then open your mouth and remove all doubt.”

Why worry, the owner is everybody's friend. He even calls plays.

Their player evaluation has been fine. Now you can question player development on a few guys.

Disagree. Taco, Chaz Green, Gregory, Fleming, Heath, Cooper Rush, Crawford, M Collins, all poor player evaluations. Might be some more added also.

Wait what’s your definition of player evaluation? You named backups and people not even on the team lol.

That's what we were discussing, backups. Poor backups are one of the reason this team isn't winning at present.

And yet, Dallas has $24 million for cap purposes right now. In 2020, it will be $85 million.

And so the urban myth continues . . .

Next man up doesn't work in DAL b/c the scheme aren't adjustable to players strengths, so if a player isn't an exact fit for what the scheme ask then the production suffers. That's why, in order, to get in the playoffs this team needs like 6-8 pro bowlers.

Then that goes back to the original point, they must be horrific judges of talent.

Fixed that for you!!!!!

Next man up is a flawed concept. It excuses the coaching staff from devising a plan to put an inferior player in a position to succeed rather than simply asking a backup to replicate the performance of someone more talented.

Devin Smith is not Amari Cooper, so don’t ask him to do Amari Cooper things.

Cam Fleming is certainly no Ty Smith, so maybe get him some help with chips, double teams and maybe a quick passing game?

Same goes for Knight and Collins.

This staff needs to get creative and stop pretending these backups can do what the starters can.

Well you aren’t going to have pro bowlers at every position. You named like 8 players out of what? 53? That’s good talent evaluation.

I'm going to have to agree w/ that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Not if you're discussing quality backups.
