Sturm- Decoding Linehan - Saints

[Sturm1310]

The problems with the 2015 Dallas Cowboys offense are present. They are not the same offense they were in 2014 for a number of reasons. Those reasons, for simplicity sake are named Tony Romo (has missed 9 of 16 Quarters), Dez Bryant (has missed 13 of 16), and DeMarco Murray (16/16). Two of those are mending as we speak and plan on returning, the other one wishes he could return based on his first four weeks in Philadelphia.

When you look at the production of the Cowboys offense under Scott Linehan in 2015, you will see that many of the numbers have regressed. What might surprise you though is that the numbers are not dropping to the bottom of the league.

reason for hope when #9 and #88 come back.

My conclusion is, without Romo and Dez and a dominant defense, this is at least an average team. There is hope if the defense improves (with the returning players) and Dez heals quickly giving Weeden a true #1 WR.
