Great stuff Bob. I really like all the things Linehan has brought to the table. The Garrett offense was tired and predictable, and relied too much on taking what the defense would give them, rather than imposing their will.

Thanks Bob, waiting to see what Rod does in the way of adjustments during the game this week, Payton will have found all the weaknesses and will try to exploit them, can we adjust.

Terrific, this might be your best work yet.

1. It show's how the CB is dependent on the pass rush. If Romo wasn't going to get pressure he could have double-pumped and Dez would be wide open with a lot of room to run.

2. The offensive coaching is terrific this year, IMO. They are doing excellent work getting the blocking coordinated in the run game including the TEs and WRs. They've had some really effective run block from Harris and T. Williams this year. It's amazing how fast Frederick gets down-field. Many draft analysts had him ranked as a late 1st until he ran the slow forty than they immediately dropped him in their rankings.

3. The TD to Williams was one of my favorite play designs. Finally the Cowboys are using the legal "Rub" play to their advantage. The Rams tried a lot of Rub plays in the game both legal and illegal. They got penalized on one, but the TD on the end-zone reception was an illegal pick-play on Scandrick.

Good stuff, just shows Jenkins didn't guess but someone misread the defense AGAIN.

Again, this is why you wanted Linehan. Because he thought all of this through with Megatron.

Yep. Almost all of the talk was about how Linehan would find more ways to get the ball into Dez's hands. Linehan's real accomplishment in Detroit was to get everybody else involved.

I think as season goes on, Linehan will get Escobar going in the redzone. He did it with Fauria last year where he had 7 TDs as a UDFA rookie TE.
