As well as pit with ab and bell. Rams. Kitchens was too creative if anything. Use your best players and have a set of plays perfected. You watch the Vikings and they capitalized on Cook. That translated into an efficient and explosive pass game. Shouldve been the same with chubb leading the show. Yeah it’s a balance but Freddie definitely tried some crazy plays at really bad times. Like 3rd and one. That’s a hand off to Chubb or a short pass to Hunt, Jarvis, Odell etc. not the time to pull out a trick play Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You gotta be creative on how you are going to use your personnel grouping, your formation, and pre snap motions to disguise your play. I rather run the 5 plays but have 20 different ways to make that play look different. Freddie has 20 plays and they all looked different, so defenses knew it was coming. That’s a great thing Shanny and McVay do, they are very good at making all their plays look the same or have the ability to run the same play in many different ways. there is no need to reinvent how to run a trap, counter, power, iso, off tackle, inside zone, or outside zone. Just need to learn how to show a team something that looks like 20 different things but the end result is still a power run. Freddie was actually good at it last year and it gave Baker a lot of info pre snap when they would shift and motion but this year they barely did that at all 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess Daboll can be updated to 1/6 and I'm not sure what date McDaniels is now. I'd imagine Stefanski is Friday. From there we would have interviewed 7 candidates. Would've liked to see them interview a college coach or two as well as a non OC/DC type. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BleedTheClock Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 I'm enamored with PJ Fleck. I'd have loved to interview him. I don't know if he'd make a great NFL coach, but he's an elite college coach. The best young coach in the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DawgX Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 Sounds like McCarthy to Dallas is about to be a done deal. He wouldn't have been the most exciting hire we could have made, but he was likely the safest hire out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reginaldm9 Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 (edited) McCarthy makes Dallas the NFC East champ the next couple of years. It's a good hire, but they aren't winning any Super Bowls either. Edited January 6, 2020 by Reginaldm9 adf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It all depends on the coaching staff tho McDaniels can prolly piece together a solid staff. Stef would be a great hire if he gets Kubiak to come as his OC. If they miss out on those guys, it’s officially a clown show yet again and we get stuck with Daboll as HC 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BleedTheClock Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 Give me Stefanski or McDaniels. I never really wanted McCarthy. He wouldn't have been a bad hire, but that's not a slam dunk. I think the other two would be better. I know McDaniels is a bleh human being, but he's a great offensive mind. I'd be happy to land him. Stefanski is doing a lot with a little in Minnesota. I love his scheme. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
