I saw zero improvements or any new wrinkles. The same stale playcalling. Nothing to keep the defense off balance or guessing. It is the same junk. Each player lines up and tries to beat his man every play. If they do, it looks good. But it is not a recipe for long term success. The same ol run based on 1st down boring playcalling. The same 2 and 3 yard outs. So many comebacks routes and routes where the receiver catches it with zero opportunity to make a player after the catch.
Also, the same ol long developing routes down the field where Dak has to drop back 4-5 steps and wait. When you already know this OL can not hold up against the Rams dL. And the right side of your line has an undrafted free agent for goodness sake. Dak is best when he is making quick reads. But nope, we have him drop back constantly. We didn't attack down field and open anything up.
The play that stands out to me is the 3rd and 4 on the first drive of the 2nd half. We have all the momentum. We have a 1pt lead and looking to go up 8 and take a little command. What do we do here? A long drop back where Dak's main read is a long developing cross route in the middle of the field about 12 yards down the field. Awesome. Nothing quick or heck, even a run.Zeke was getting going at this point.
