The effectiveness of this offense is rooted in your ability to successfully and consistently run the football. This is not the greatest show on turf in personnel or design. IF you cannot run the football, it can and will be rendered ineffective. Especially against GOOD teams!
As a guess, we don't throw deep more often because we lacked speed on the outside. Too many curl routes, because lack of consistent ability to get separation. There's also the question about Dak's accuracy on digs, slants, crossers etc., but don't want to compound that with WRs that struggle to get seperation.
Sometimes it’s simply execution and we don’t always execute well.
I think that's overblown, Dak, he's not Rodgers or Wilson, in their prime, but has a decent deep ball. Our deep threat is Gallup, who ran a 4.5+, that was before his injuries, so he isn't consistently getting a step on many people. Deep throws, like the 60+ yder to Hilton are low percentage for any QB, but not something you're likely to call often when you know you don't have speed. A lot of deep passes aren't QBs trying to hit a guy in stride, it's about putting air under it and letting your guy run under it, we don't have a WR like that.
He hasn't learned what to do in game time situations. I don't doubt that he's a smart guy but he lacks the ability to play chess with the guy right in front of him on the other side of the field. Just like Garrett, he didn't spend time learning what to do during the game.
So true. Airman was much more accurate , the receivers could run timing routes., we had a FB who was a pass catcher also. A deep shot to Irvin to get into opposing territory then grind them with Emmitt
Hey, I resemble that remark
