Terry Bradshaw rips Callahan: "Same old weak junk we saw in Oakland"

[CATCH17]

Until our QB can learn how to beat a blitz it won't matter. Romo is usually very good vs the blitz. He was awful week 17 vs WAS and awful yesterday vs it

When teams blitz they know exactly where Romo is about to go with the ball and take away that option. Once they do that it's a panic to get rid of the ball to an open guy.

It's the system. I'm blaming 90% of our problems on predictability and letting teams dictate us.

 

[visionary]

yeah, let's panic, shout, and cry.

That'll get us in the win column

if we all do the happy dance and close our eyes to reality will that win us the next game?

 

[kramskoi]

I'm just so disappointed with the offense.


They had all offseason to figure it out and it's just as bland as its ever been.

When will we have a coach that actually gets the most out of our talent instead of the bare minimum?

Why do we call games that keep every stinkin team we play in the game?

Seems like they spent that time merely figuring out how to "get over"! Bland? They better be careful it does not become completely backward, belly-up and bankrupt! What a beautiful boondoggle that would be eh?

That's a good point.

Doesn't help that Romo is the worst slant passer in the nfl.

Teams run slants and get 10-20 yard chunks. We run slants and get 3

“I’m extremely disappointed in what I saw in Dallas,” he said after the Cowboys dropped a 17-16 decision to the Chiefs. “I have a feeling we are going to see the up and down of the Cowboys. That’s just the way it’s going to be.”

Earlier Bradshaw unloaded on Cowboys offensive coordinator Bill Callahan, who has assumed play-calling responsibility from Jason Garrett. Keep in mind you rarely hear NFL TV voices slice and dice head coaches let alone question coordinators.

“Same old weak junk we saw in Oakland,” Bradshaw said, referring to Callahan’s days with the Raiders. “It drives me up a wall, five-yard out routes, five-yard drag routes. You have to take chances. You can’t keep running this short dinky offense.”

He nailed it. Case and point was not going to Dez for an end zone fade and instead trying to dump it to Williams behind the line of scrimmage.

Yes. I said in the game thread. That was inexcusable of Romo to not even look over at Dez. He was infatuated with that stupid screen play. One of the stupidest playa calls I've seen. Dez was dieing for a chance.
We out smart ourselves.

Bottom line the Cowboys need to do whatever they need to do , to get the offense clicking and open up the game and be more inventive.

 

[Frozen700]

Who said anything about being happy?

You don't see me running around making sunshine posts. Even when we win

But i see a lot of panic attacks, and high blood pressure. Lay off the sodium

Frankly after watching Seattle, last years San Fran , last years Commanders, and now Chip Kelly's new Offense in Philly ... we are looking at another rebuild of coaching to catch up to the innovative offenses.

When it comes to the redzone playcalling, he's right. But it's amazing nobody is considering the possibility the Chiefs defense actually played a great game. Whenever Dallas loses, the other team never gets credit; it's just a long list of what the Cowboys did wrong.

The Chiefs played us very well on defense. They blitzed at the right time and it wasn't until late in the game that we beat it and it wasn't much or often. That was as poorly called game as I've seen in awhile from Dallas. I still say the 20 for 25 Romo who did throw downfield some wasn't the same guy at the end of the game.

 

[jobberone]

I'm not going to bash people because I don't know for sure what happened. I do know this. I watch other teams around the league and they are scoring points and they are throwing the ball all over the place. We're not going to be able to keep up with Philly or NY. We may or may not matchup with Wash.

The bottom line is you should not consistently be able to cover receivers with the current rules. The offense moved the ball well for most of the game then ground to a halt. Some of that is on the turnovers. The big problem there was again scoring FGs and not TDs. A large part of that is on the inconsistency of the running game and self destruction via penalties. Some part is on execution and play calling. I still say Romo couldn't throw the ball late. My problem with that is if he can play well then he needs to take himself out or the coaches do. Maybe that's not the problem at the end of the game but it has me wondering.

And I agree that this offense is too predictable at times. Teams seem to have a blueprint on how to play our offense. If that's true then its disturbing.

We're 1 and 1 and it's early in the season. Some games get you a stinker. Teams adjust. We'll see how the team responds this week.

Romo was killing the Giants with the slant last year. Once the defense figured out that's our only answer to blitzing, they have been defending it perfectly. Go watch yesterday's game again. KC always had someone dropping and defending the slant every time they blitzed.

Why we don't try to run a draw, shovel pass, or roll Romo out to beat the blitz is baffling.

 

[Jerryrage]

JG is here to stay along with Bill. Get over it. Tony Romo and Jason Witten have valley ranch on lock down and the owner will side with them. They love JG because it made them millionaires. I'll be honest with all of you here. A football player would rather get millions of dollars vs winning a Superbowl.

 

[Doomsdayblitz]

Telling it like it is isn't panic. It's exposing the faults in the play calling. Why is criticism considered "hate" by so many of you? I watched the team against the Giants twice run a 3 yard "button hook" route, for lack of a better term, on 3rd & long. It had NO chance of creating a 1st down, since the receiver was stationary when he caught it, & was easily tackled. What is the freaking point to doing that?

 

[dallasdave]

Same old bald head year after year we have to look at with bradshaw.
