Brother I have missed one Cowboys game in the past 30 years and that was three weeks ago when I was dying of shingles
I can assure you the numbers do not bear out The idea of that Prescott is usually the reason we’re playing from behind
Of course, hes had bad games and put us in bad positions
But the vast majority of the time he’s the only thing dragging this lifeless corpse of a team along
The Cowboys have allowed 20+ points in 15 straight games, the longest active streak in the NFL.
The last team with a longer streak (21) was the 2019-2021 Jaguars.
The Jaguars ended up with the #1 overall pick in the 2021 and 2022 NFL Drafts.
@Takela331 Don’t overcommit, stay in your lane, do your job
49ers love to force you to react, see that reaction, and then exploit it the rest of the game
Since film is still a struggle for my eye and Kyle Shanahan has long been one of my favorite NFL coaches, I thought I’d write about the 49ers and what makes them so good year in and year out. Their stability should be a model
I’ll have it finished later today, and hopefully at some point get some film to accompany the breakdown
To be fair though It’s the defense that we’ve been absolutely decimated with injuries at
Some o line issues, but for the most part we’ve been healthy on offense
Imagine reading this if you’re Brian Schottenheimer. But Jerry Jones is accurate with his assessment.
The division-leading Giants have started three different QBs, the Eagles four and the Commanders two.
The Cowboys have had Dak Prescott for every game — both this season and last season and could miss postseason both times.
Alright, just got through the IND film. Let's get started (thread, offense 1st):
First and foremost, the o-line absolutely dominated the LOS. Run game, pass pro, movement, impact blocks. You name it, Dallas’ O-line got it done. Credit to the whole group.
Real shame Garrett’s tenure went the way it did.
He’s probably the most intelligent man in every room he enters, and he understands the game of football inside and out
Much like Schottenheimer, he might have just had the wrong team at the wrong time
Next loaded box "pass" isn't even an awful play call or design, but for some reason we leave the edge unblocked, the one guy who can blow this play up.
We've actually got it blocked up pretty well on the outside, and if we just don't let the edge go untouched its probably a TD
There HAS to be some type of rule regarding getting a block on the most dangerous defender. Diagnosing WHO the failure falls on is tough, because it could be poor blocking scheme or someone could have missed their block
Why is Steele not blocking outside instead of inside here? That’s my real question. The unblocked edge is the only one who can blow the play up.
As always, genuine question because o line logic and blocking scheme is my weakest point of understanding
But it sure looks to me here that if we just block the edge it’s an easy touchdown
One of the main things the offense has consistently struggled with is protecting against and scheming to beat a loaded box and the resulting blitz if it comes.
so the first thing I wanted to look at were all of the throws NFL pro identified as against a loaded box
This was 3rd and 6, 0-0 game, left in the 1st. A big early game possession and a perfect opportunity to come away with the TD.
Watching this live I thought Dak missed the TE wide open, but when you watch the tape the defender is standing there reading Daks eyes and sitting on the route the whole time. If he throws this ball its broken up at best, possibly picked.
If Dak is able to just get a little more on this throw it's an easy completion. Unfortunately the protection just doesn't hold up long enough and the ball falls incomplete
