Slow Starts?

[links18]

We came real close to getting blown out of there again early. Last week, we fell apart. This week we bounced back, but we need to so something about the slow starts, because more often than not that junk gets you beat. Good to see that we made a defensive adjustment, but we need to do a better job with the offensive weapons we have getting something going in the first quarter.

Still very early in the season. Rust is still a factor. Play calling does have to improve but be patient.Big plays will come.

They really needed to go no huddle there in the first half I thought.

O Line play has not been good early in the past two games. Adjustments not made in Denver but were tonight.

Horrific playcalling. I'm yelling at the TV all first half. We finally started to incorporate Switz... teams are daring us to beat 8 man fronts but we wont keep them off balance with better playcalling to take advantage of aggressive fronts. I don't get it and it could have cost us a deeper hole. Linnehan has been really sub par schematically for about 6 quarters.

Linehan needs to dial up the bootlegs and get Dak out of the pocket more. Only after doing that did Arizona's defense soften up in the box. Using Dak's legs to beat the extra man was all it took to make the big plays.

I feel like slow starts have been a staple under JG, and honestly, I'm getting sick of it. As is my liver.

we cannot afford to have these slow starts when we play the really good offensive teams

I remember it being a problem in years past but I thought last year we did a good job of getting the ball first and being the first to put points up on the board.

It's going to happen a lot in the next 1-2 years. This team is still very young/inexperienced at key positions...part of the growing pains of having a young core in the Post-Romo Era.

After the first drive I thought the D was done cooked finished. I thought we might not win another game. Thank goodness for the adjustment! That D killed Rogers and Stafford last year. Love it!

This is my concern also.
