It's hard to get a good/comforting read on what this offense is.
We've had 3 blowout wins and we still don't really know how good this offense is.
It's just one game, but the redzone deficiencies are very concerning.
Without all of the Defense TD's, those blowout games could have turned into close wins or tight losses.
The Offense seems pretty pedestrian and doesn't provide much confidence when facing better teams.
I am very concerned that SF will really expose this offense.
This type of play won't succeed against them.
the offense is good, except inside the redzone. the plays inside redzone lack imagination, they are not creating mismatches and the personnel grouping is not good. like last week, Cook a 5'10" guy running across the endzone, and not even the back of the endzone. that should have been Lamb or Gallup who can go up and get the ball. the throw was forced and had bad results. against NE, Deuce is pass blocking, against a blitzing LB!? why? why? why? he is 180 wet and all his equipment on. that's not a good match and not sure why we had that personnel grouping. the players aren't just plug and play and play design/call has to match with personnel grouping.

"Dallas co-leads the NFL with 19 red zone drives along with the Buffalo Bills, but their red zone touchdown rate is 36.8%, the third worst in the league. Only the Houston Texans (35.7%) and the New Orleans Saints (33.3%) are worse."

if we fix the redzone issues, then this offense is going to be really good.

After watching that 49ers game and seeing Brock Purdy play, our QB looks like he's playing in molasses by comparison. Definitely seeing the weak link on offense.
I watched some of the Arizona v SF game. Purdy always anticipated the receiver's routes and threw the ball before the receiver's break. We don't see that with Dak.

It is called complimentary football. You know, a TEAM game.

Sometimes one unit needs to step up at times to give some help.
So Dallas gets a lead (no matter how they gets that lead), and the defense can tee off on an offense.

You heard Olsen, say that the DE's do not want to come out of the game, because they know NE had to pass. So they can go do what they are supposed to do.
No, it is not stat padding for sacks, it is called....FOOTBALL....
Dak's offense seldom does that, please see Arizona's game.
