With this many weapons there is absolutely no excuse not to put up 30 points a game.

2 #1 WRs
A solid #2 In Gallup
Explosive dual-threat backfield
Average to Above average O-Line ‘At-Times’
A Top 15 TE


Dak has a bottom 5 QB passer rating in the league over the past 5 games.:omg:


What’s going on?
 
Very simple teams are selling out to stop the run. I heard today they had fallen to 27th in the league in that department. They are daring the QB to beat them from the pocket. So far far the Cowboys have beaten mediocre teams that have used this strategy. I dont see them beating playoff teams until the QB improves,

I'm not going to defend, or offend any single player over others in the fact that the game of Football is one of the most intricate and complex of games and how many players, at the same time, are involved to both do their job and outperform their opponents play after play after play after play under the direction of a Third Party is certainly a daunting task.

And they are going against opponents that are professionals themselves and doing their hardest to defeat what's in front of them and what their assignments are and things can happen from a slip of the foot to the slide of a shoulder pad push that can make someone else to look bad as they pass off players, or things like that.


I cannot be truthful to myself to say I KNOW what the issue is, but I feel fairly certain it's never one thing.
It's many things and for many reasons.

Now, like I said: I'm not defending anyone, including Dak.

I just never place a game's blame on one single person because there were so many plays that included so many players and coaches that leads up to the outcome.

Important plays are to be looked at, but how did the game go to get to that point?




TLDR: I place the blame upon both of them and the entire offensive team as a whole because Football is a Team game with many players and many assignments over many, many plays.

Well, the WR screen is asinine and its taken KM like 6 games to figure out that running Pollard off tackle is there all game long. Add in a healthy dose of stupid red zone plays and over reliance on Zeke up the middle and I think you got a pretty good case that Moore has some issues.

Dak? Well, I'm not sure if he is suffering from an injury, confidence issues or what. The fact that we can't see downfield on most plays . . . and we don't know the full read progression makes him a little harder to evaluate. I did see several replays today where guys were 1 on 1 downfield in situations that many top QB's would have made the throw and Dak didn't.

I disagree that Dallas has a dual threat backfield. Zeke has been playing like ***. Hopefully its the knee but there is a serious issue there.

Regardless, my blame list:
1. Zeke
2. KM
3. Dak
4. O-line (IMO it played better today)
5. WR drops (every QB deals with them and Dallas has a lot of amazing catches to go with the drops)

JJ...Jim Beam.
 
If we run better more consistently, if Zeke and Pollard can get healthier, I truly believe this offense will get better.

Otherwise I think it’s a bit of both, however I’m gonna lean that Dak has been worse bc he has been inaccurate.

Beat me to it.....I was about to say the same thing,...

Didn’t work
We ran very well today
Just not enough and this throwing when we should be eating clock has hurt us last two games
Moore needs to understand there is a time to be aggressive and a time to eat clock and play field position
He’s calling the games late like we have last years defense
We are 6th in rushing yards
 
If we run better more consistently, if Zeke and Pollard can get healthier, I truly believe this offense will get better.

He is tryin to hard...and he is getting fragile. However...the W on the board.
 
People don't want to believe it but defenses have adjusted since the Denver game. Dak struggles throwing against man coverage especially when the other teams front 4 can get pressure and then occasionally runs stunts.

All of that and what do you know. Still the second best offense in the NFL. Holy crap, that’s horrible

You people still dont understand football or offense. You can have all the great skill position players you want, but if the Oline is failing, which it has been for 8 weeks, nothing is consistent.

And we do NOT have a dual threat backfield. Zeke is featured and is simply a bad runner at this point. ineffective.

Did you see Lamb drop 3 easy catches today? Did you see the breakdown of last week where the receivers are simply screwing up the execution?

It’s not the man coverage! It’s the less time to throw. Also, Moore needs to make some scheme adjustments to help the receivers get open. Dropped passes are not helping either. Dak has made some bad throws and bad decisions.

It’s a combination of things!!

There were some good signs today though. The run blocking was good and Moore is starting to roll Dak out Moore.

Tyron’s replacement struggled in pass blocking. We need him back soon.
