Red Zone Offense

I don't understand why we didn't try to get to the edges of the Patriots defense. Why not give either Pollard or Lamb a chance to make a defender miss? Clearly their defense was too stout in the middle. Going forward if we are clearly out matched at the center of the defense I'd really like to see us try the edges.

Dak scored on the sneak.

Dak scored on the sneak.

Yes, I think we can all agree on that, but the larger point is why not test the edges at all against a stout front.

It’s simple. Elliott. I don’t know why Prescott has the ball twice

We do. Just not every time

They did. Lamb on the jet sweep. Pollard was stopped on a two-point try going around the end. Zeke picked up a first down going around the end. Those are the ones I remember.

I'm particularly thinking about the goal line series when Dark ultimately fumbled at the end. Maybe I need to rewatch that series, but I remember being frustrated that we didn't test the edges that series.
