What will Jason's offense look like? And who in the heck is Brian Stewart?

From the 50,000-watt hammer for justice, truth, the supreme truth and water sports, some questions about the offense. Next up, Farmers Branch Go-Khart Update and Doris Connor's Coffee Hour.

Mens and boys, I wonder what Jason Garrett's offense will look like. Like Jerry's? Like Wade's? Like his own?
As a QB, his inclination would be the passing game, but it is likey he has come around to a balanced attack.

Still, a blitzkrieg game from Romo to Witten/T.O./Glenn/Crayton might look tempting to him. (My guess is that Garrett is no dummy and will use Witten more than T.O. and Glenn.

Anybody care to guess what Garrett's offense will look like? How he will play the RBs? How much leeway will he give to T.O.? Whether he will play Witten more?

And will he be his own man or will Jerra or Wade play a part in the offensive philosophy?

And has anybody heard anything about Brian Stewart, the defensive coordinator?
I vaguely recall his name.

All these discussions of how Wade will skew his game and almost no one raises Garrett's or Stewart's name.

Well I don't know about Garrett's offense, but let's hope that Jethro don't have anything to do with it. If he trys then lock him in his office and weld the door shut, nail it shut or whatever needs to be done to keep him incaged!

About Stewart, I guess he couldn't do any worse than Zimmer, hopefully he'll atleast let the D-line get out of their stance when the ball is snapped!

Why would Jerry Jones have anything to do with designing the offensive playbook?

What did that have to do with the original post?

I hope Garrett doesn't die tomorrow. That would probably be hard to overcome if he wants to completely install his offense.

Doesn't make sense does it?

I actually wish I knew. This is a big mystery to all of us, but Wade did say in a press-conference that the way he coaches offense, is to tell his coordinator to get the ball into the hands of all of his play-makers. Sounds easy enough, and I'm sure Garrett has some cutting edge stuff to pull out, yet I do agree with Parcells on one thing... Sometimes you have to slow the game down, especially if you're out matched on the offensiveline.

Jim Fassel who coached under Phillips was on NFLTA thursday and said that Phillips allows his coordinators to do their jobs and backs them up. Now Im sure when he is generating gameplans with his coordinators it will involve a priority to his playmakers but Garrett will be allowed to determine how that is done.

Brian Stewart took two bad safeties, an average and a bad corner and made them into a respectable unit last season as the secondary coach at San Diego. Phillips said in one of his early pressers that he was a bit too hands off with his defense in Buffalo and would be much more hands on but Stewart showed in SD that he worked well under Phillips and I see that trend to continue here in Dallas.

Were not going to see nearly as much playaction but rhather a lot of draws and perimeter runs with Jones. Crossing routes, the skinny post, curls, slants, the deep out. Swing passes to the RB and a constant safety valve in the FB dumpoff. And of course the 30 yard slant.

I'm hoping that we go back to an offense that more willing to go to the pass early in the game. It seemed that we would burn a lot of plays generating runs of 1, 2 or 3 yards in order to try to establish a running game while the other team was concentrating more on putting points on the board.

Then in the 2nd half our offense would start to open up...

I would be happy witha bit more unpredictability on offense. If im not mistake we had the highest percentage of runs on first down. i like establishing the run but not when like you say its for only 2 or 3 yards a pop cause the defense is keying on it.

I like the plan to use Julius much differently then last year. Sounds to me like he'll be a lot more effective and thus a better offensive weapon. Sure beats constantly sending him up the middle for little or no gain.

Wade wanted Stewart as his DC and patiently waited Chargers out. I'm glad we able to get him cause that should help the development of our defense. Can't evaluate Stewarts' work with Charger secondary but he's got better players here then in SD so we shall see how he influences our current secondary coach.

Must admit I can't wait til TC and preseason games to see how Wade's 34 looks and which players really benefit in that scheme. I really like what I'm hearing about Spencer (and thrilled that despite Ellis complaining he's helping Spencer) and we all know Ware will do well as well Ellis if healthy. It's just time for rest of the front 7 to step it up. Unless Bradie James has a transdentel experience, I expect Carpenter to beat him out which would be a big upgrade inside.

This is a great example of how Players always out weigh scheme, in terms of effectiveness.

Back in the day, with a line consisting of LA, Tui, Step, Gogan and EW,,,, every oppossing defense new we were going to run the ball, yet Emmitt was very effective running off tackle, and with the lead draw. Even with 8 man fronts.

I will agree that JJ is better suited with swing passes and other designed plays that will get him out in space, but MB111 will see alot of action in this power blocking scheme now being installed.

Stewart is the DC in name, but Wade Phillips is doing everything...Phillips wanted Stewart though because he's worked in his system for a couple yrs now

Slow it down and run out the clock in the fourth quarter with a nice lead is fine. But don't bring it to a screeching halt just because you have a 2 point lead at halftime, ala Parcells.

I think Garrett will go with a version of the Sid Gillman (Corriel, Zampieze, Turner) Offense. But I think he will throw in some elements of the WCO to make the best use of Owens skills and understanding of those passing routes. He likely will have a twist or two from Jim Fassel’s system and some of his own. I expect it to be a fairly complex system but not anything like Coslet's monstrosity of an offense.

Romo is mobile and throws well on the run. He isn't the tallest QB and doesn't have a high release point. Given this, we have to expect that Garrett will emphasize Romo's mobility. Romo will be on the move.

So, next, Garrett is duty-bound to take advantage of the movement that Romo creates. Which means more finesse or misdirection. I'd expect more screens and middle screens than we ever saw in the 1990's.

... when Garrett first returned, I just sort of assumed that Garrett would basically dust off the 1992-94 Dallas Cowboys playbook and use it.

But given Garrett's intellect and the basic differences in the strengths of Aikman and Romo, it seems inevitable that these Cowboys are going to show more finesse, particularly behind the line of scrimmage.

Norv Turner was so unpredictable, it was really hard to guess the plays he would call. I hope JG will bring that to the table.

Be unpredictable and attack the defense where it needs to be attacked. Sounds really simple but last year the offense would sometimes defy logic in it's predictability.

With a balanced offense you have to attack what the defense is giving you. Even if it's heavily one-sided run or pass. Most importantly being flexible in your attack, and we have the offensive talent to do this.

My point originally being, I don't mind the attack attack attack approach, but if your OLine isn't giving you time or room to run, you'd better be careful in how you choose to just drop back and go at it, that is one thing we should've learned from Parcells philosophy.

When he tried that with a tomato can at LT when Flozell went down, VT nearly lost his life out there. But if we are holding those fools off from killing Romo, then I say attack until you can't.
