Agreed. I would say more is needed during them preseason games since a whole new system is being introduced. Best to be better prepared before the regular season starts. Can't afford to use the regular season to get acclimated to the new west coast system.
Chunk plays need to happen early and often to get this team to buy in.
Why do you keep saying this? The Cowboys were among the league leaders in this category when Dak was healthy and were Top-5 in both 2021 and 2019.
I can’t imagine risking playing our starters more in preseason just to acclimate a new system which should be fine tuned in practice and scrimmages where our starters can be more protected from injury.
Great question. That would assume Prescott needs fixing. Have we established he needs fixing ?
If the start of last season was any indication (the starters started 2020 very badly, plus they didn't play all of preseason for the very same reason you stated above), these Cowboys definitely need to play a good amount this upcoming preseason, especially since they are integrating a new offensive system.I can’t imagine risking playing our starters more in preseason just to acclimate a new system which should be fine tuned in practice and scrimmages where our starters can be more protected from injury.
Doesn’t matter, they are all vanilla in preseason.
True, CC, but live playing in preseason is better than non-contact practice. The players need the live game contact to get adjusted.
