It's obvious that we will be doing a lot of SLANTS in this offense this season. Some of the passes look good, some don't. I'm afraid there's going to be guys that will hear footsteps, have balls tipped, and or poor passes that are going to lead to turnovers, from doing this route so often.

I'm not saying get rid of it or anything of that nature, I just feel that there's a lot of room for error using this route, please give your thoughts
Offenses evolve over the year. If something’s not working they’lladjust note that MM is in full control of the offense.

Dak is good at the quick slants. But if we keep going to it they will jump it. So hoping they know this and use that pump fake and go to the deeper route. I heard that Dak is looking deep this year also. Open it up with the pump. Romo used to do that and it looked sweet.

It could be a factor
