Sanjay Lal to be Cowboys WR Coach

[mahoneybill]

I was luke warm on Dooley. About the same with Lal. I don't know how much talent he's had to work with but if he can coach above average out of our average group of WR's then it's good[/QUOTE

And get us to run rubs/ stacks/ legal picks . Especially putting Zeke into that mix all the better otherwise we will see DBs knowing where the ball is going with their man as we run the same old plays

So, after reading all the back and forth in this thread it kinda seems like Lal is a JAG. I virtually knew nothing about him but as someone posted he's not coached any receivers that produced much. Maybe a step back in coaching talent. Guess we'll have to wait for this to play out.

You never know. It may be that the lack of big production from WRs at his previous stops had a lot to do with him, or maybe very little and much more to do with the overall poor quality of the offenses of the teams he was with. Who knows, may the receivers he had wouldn't have done as well as they did if he hadn't been there. It's hard to know.

This guy has been part of some of the worst offenses in football. Some seasons the top receiver didn’t even top 750 yards. Now he wasn’t the offensive coach, so there is that. But man, talk about coaching up a bunch of nobodies.

The Troll is strong in you...

By the way, this is the second coaching position where fans prematurely slammed the Cowboys for hiring a former Cowboy player with little experience. This is a lesson in patience - hell it wouldn't have taken that much, just a few days. But fans were so eager to jump on the Cowboys for hiring Myles Austin and Marc Colombo they couldn't wait.

Yep
Facts (put through homer filter) = trolling

Yeah because we've had such great success with the other former cowboy player hired as OC 11 years back

Maybe this one can be trained to be equally below average in 11 years

What does this have to do with what I posted?

Which previous cowboy player did we hire as coach that fans are currently upset about?

In 3, 2, 1........

If he can get Dez breaking crisp on his routes then this is an improvement.

Aye, there’s the rub.

Did you not read the rest of my post on him in the thread??

I’ve said several times, he’s had crap to work with! Could work well with some talent. Not trolling

Huge upgrade over Dooley

 

[Zordon]

Hope this guy is legit. Dez's future depends on it.

Giving all that money to Dez and then giving him Dooley as a position coach is like buying a Ferrari and putting conventional oil in it.

I can't say that Dooley was anything special but it's as much about the scheme and the play calling as much as anything. Unfortunately all of our WR's have limitations whether it's size, route running, hands or speed. Can't teach speed and can't create size so work on their route running, catching and RAC. I think we're in the lower third of the league when it came to RAC this year

It's either coach up the guys we have and fit the scheme to their talent or find better talent. The latter preferred

 

[atlantacowboy]

I like what he is preaching which is preparation. It seems like Dez has always been able to win by being more physical. He just can't win those balttles enough now.

Its a copy cat league and now everyone is gong to be preparing. Damm you Sanjay! You just gave away our edge.

Garrett has nothing to do with my post, which was about fans slamming the Cowboys for hiring people they actually didn't.

ZzZz lazy analysis.

 

[TheCoolFan]

I'll give him a chance I guess. It's not always easy to judge a position coach based on how many great players he coached. In Cincinnati, they see Frank Pollack's resume that he coached Tyron, Fred, and Martin for 5 years and they could say "Wow this guy helped develop these players into All Pros!"
