I've seen enough.
This team is piss poor and unless Dak plays beyond incredible they don't have much of a chance.
Run game -absolutely nothing
OL - poor, injured, and old
Defense - Swiss cheese. Burnt toast.
Dumbest head coach in the league
If Dak isn't other worldly, we don't have a chance and if your hope is for one player to carry you that is just stupid.
I hope he gets out of here and gets a chance like Stafford did... And Romo didn't.
I've been saying this since Midseason. This is Dak's team, this is a passing team. Whatever they get out of the running game is just gravy. I would call very few 1st down runs, but they should use play action more and more on early downs. And they should run out of different formations, the passing formations...to try to catch the other team in bad positions.
Sometimes when the Cowboys run, I feel like they're just wasting a down. Why run on 2nd and 10 out of a base formation? It almost NEVER pops, and they're usually stuffed at the LOS.
Just realize that Dak may need to throw 3 downs in a row to get the first down.
As for getting Pollard touches, use him more in the passing games. Flank him out and make the defense respect him (even though he dropped one tonight). Use him in a slant, or a bend in route. I was mad that McCarthy didn't go back to that same route he ran when he dropped it...that could have been a big play. I think the Cowboys should try to use Pollard more like McCaffrey in the passing game.
This offensive line as a unit can not consistently block people in the running game...so many missed blocks and blown assignments. Just run less, use play action more, rarely run on 1st down (at least not out of base sets), and do what you do best...THROW THE BALL. And use more screens (HB, TE and WR) to substitute for runs.
It's time to put this offense on Dak's shoulders from Snap 1. Let him throw the ball to get the lead...stop running so much early in the game, wasting plays! Run more once they get the lead...and preferably a 2-score lead.
