Please do not run WR Screen

Please do not run this play. Teams have the tell on it, and it’s been picked off twice, and almost picked off 2 more times.
I hate this play with a passion. IDK what it is with this franchise and running screens but we haven't had a team that can do this since #12 was throwing this to #33. Those guys were great at screens.
 
Use the running back screen...

- Kellen is apparently not comfortable with the RB screen,.. he'll try it on very rare occasions - if it doesn't work, then he'll totally
abandon it .

- it's one of the reasons why our RB screens are so under-developed and vastly underutilized.
Pollard would be so deadly with this.! ..just like Zeke used to be .
 
well, we need to run it just not so much and especially not to start the game as teams are looking for it..don't go to the well to many times.
 
Feels like a half dozen screens this season have been blown due to Schultz inability to block on the outside.
 
The problem is it works once every 10 plays so Moore remembers the one time it worked and calls it 10 times. The Cowboys are terrible at running screens for some reason. The other teams seems to sniff them out early which means the Cowboys are not selling it. But then, after the RB gets the ball, 3 blockers will block no one and the RB will get tackled for no gain.
 
Which is about the time it needs to be used as a decoy.

Yes. Shoulder fake the throw & have the receivers hesitate then go. The only defender left should be the safety & if you have threatened his zone with a crossing TE he might not even get a shot.

When you do something so badly, take advantage of it!!
