But against the jets, I was impressed that he kept getting up after so many vicious hits. I don’t think Romo would have survived that game. On the other hand... when you pay 1 player a hugely disproportionate % of the salary cap, there are going to be glaring holes on the team. It’s expected that the player with the huge contract is good enough to make up for these deficiencies. Right now, the coaching staff damn well better come up with a better game plan than the abortions playing tackles. For some reason I think you supported paying a middling DE (6 sacks in last 16 games) $20m, or paying the most easily replaceable position in the NFL $15m. But then again, the priorities for many on this forum are so out of whack it astonishes me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously we can adjust play calling to overcome poor players/execution.. I think the only influence JG has had is mandating that we run more.... Which like 90% of you agreed with. The last 3 losses have been the same story, once we put the ball back in Dak's hands, our offense starts moving. It all starts with the HC getting his team ready. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If only he himself could be executed OTOH in the Glory years Jimmy let Norv get the offense ready. Kellen might be too young for that though. Most of the players are older than he is.

Most of the players are older than he is. Age is a number. Either he's got ideas or he doesn't. He's not supposed to lead- laughably, that's redball's job- which is where age and experience excel. He's supposed to scheme. Being creative and quick witted is better suited to someone not stuck in their ways anyways IMO. I think Moore can do it. Garrett just needs to gtfo of his way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If only he himself could be executed He doesnt really scout or draft (much) McClay and Jones does that. He doesnt come up with the schemes, Richard and Moore does that. He doesnt teach skill drills and perform perform play call duties. All the other coaches do that. He doesnt deal with contracts, Stephen and others do. If I'm job evaluator I gotta be asking at this point. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WizardHawk Posted October 18, 2019 Author Share Posted October 18, 2019 From @BobbyBelt If interceptions are about luck, Dallas has to be the most unlucky team in the NFL. Since 2017 (38 games) Dak Prescott has had 12 interceptions that bounced off of his own receivers. The Cowboys themselves have intercepted just four passes that bounced off of opposing receivers.

And the other 15 are due to incredibly inaccurate and poorly thrown balls. So, if he had better accuracy, the mind numbing INTs- like the one last week - would be significantly reduced. Because, those ARE his fault. Oh yeah, 15 is still > 12. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You think he sucks, and cry when he is *only* top 5... lmao 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watched an Int because a WR turned the wrong way on a timing route. That was just one of many just this year alone. It has been a problem for many years. I remember Dez running a fly route against the Bears when he was supposed to run a quick slant to beat the blitz. Any body remember Beast cutting off a route against the Packers? We must have some of the stupidest WRs in the league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
