Offensive scheme is changing

[Hawkeye0202]

They're going full college scheme for Dak. If the NFL does this in full, I'm out. I hate college/high school offenses.

I don't believe that.......IMO the Pats, Packers, and Eagles are better comparisons. No true #1 but 3-4 #2s who could have bid games on any given Sunday.

2017 to me wasn't so much trying to force it to Dez as it was going back to the old hang on to the ball for 5 seconds & go deep.

PHI runs a very heavy RPO offense, WAS does too and Alex Smith ran a ton of it under Andy Reid at KC.

The RPO is here to stay guys, the NFL is evolving.

Jerry hinted at it during one of the post draft pressers. He mentioned using more WR’s and more RPO plays where Dak may run the ball more. I think they realize that Dez and his I’m the #1 WR give me the ball offense doesn’t work. So look for more multiple receiver sets and more RPO plays.

THE stupidest thing we can do is gave Dak run more. Dak needs to learn to throw better. however I don't doubt that Garrett is stupid enough to think it's a good idea

Yet another opportunity to hit the 'reset' button and start yet another 'process'

You’re complaining about something that hasn’t even played out yet. Patience grasshopper.

2016 Dak was at his best when ALL receivers were options depending on who was open. This is where I think they try to go. A lot hard for defensive coor plan if they have no idea who you lead receiver will be on any given Sunday.

Yeah, that transition has been in the works for some time now. They'll be using it in TC whenever that starts. Here's hoping it helps.

Those are very negative opinions.

In the past we won because of Offense's ability to sustain drives and keep D off the field. Now we want to depend on the D? If we had picked a good 1 tech DT and Hurst in the 4th round to booster our DL then I would feel little better. Right now.... D has a lot to prove to me before I would rely on them.
This team is still built around the OL and Zeke. It will go as far as they will take us. If Dak would improve his accuracy to the 67% range (last year he was at 62) then this O will go far.

yup Zeke got 900 yards in 10 games. Dude is a 10k career back easy and in his prime. Its Zeke 25-30 a game and peppering in the pass game. The Elliot vs Barkley games will be fun to watch

I hope he hands it to Zeke and doesn't run much. We need Dak to stay in one piece. He was not the same after the beating he took in Atlanta

 

[Tabascocat]

Is the evolution of RPO based schemes in any way related to watered down QB's coming out of college? Will we ever see a crop of guys like Roger, Montana, Favre, Troy, etc etc at the same time instead of once a decade?

Just seems that the number of stud QB's are becoming extinct these days. When this last batch of QB's retires(Brady, Rodgers and Brees), that rare, elite HOF QB will become a unicorn.

Necessity is the mother of invention.

Ron Popiel is the daddy.

 

[KJJ]

The more Dak runs the higher the risk of injury. Using his legs in certain situations is a good thing but we can’t turn him into a running QB who’s always looking to pull the ball down and take off.

 

[GenoT]

I don’t care what all else they do, but if they don’t give Zeke by-God Elliot the ball on first-and-goal from the 2yd-line, then the offense won’t be anything other than the same old same-old.

The talent in the nfl comes from college systems
Stands to reason the nfl is going more that direction

Nobody will miss you but thanks for telling us I guess

What a beautiful strategic shift.

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

Well that’s fixed now with the cancer gone, a 2nd OL, A 3rd rd WR , Austin, Hurns and a change in scheme.

Come on man.....is it necessary to turn this into ANOTHER "Bash Dez" thread?

 

[CouchCoach]

I will miss him and run after him yelling "erod, erod, don't go erod".

I get what he's saying and that's why I spend the most time with SEC with teams that run more traditional offenses, the spread is OK as a side but not the main course.

If a team has a QB that can run like Dak can, why not? Yes, injury is a concern but so is getting hammered in the pocket, the game comes with risk. And he's one of the best sliders in the game.

And Phil, why be so mean?
