Cowboys 26th in epa per play right now.
21st in success rate.
This team has always felt like difficult.
Like the offense feels challenging for Dak.
Why does it feel like nobody is open on this offense?
But it’s never been outright bad results wise from any like metric standpoint.
It’s been bad this year.
Uh ba basically like any metric you look at to evaluate offense.
It’s not even just been disappointing really like we’re talking about is it stuck in mid?
It’s just been bad.
Not really fun in Dallas right now.
I like, I hate watching them like I, I really do II I really hate studying them right now, which is kind of stinks.
They did not build roster that made sense for the coaching staff that they had.
And not only do I think this team is stuck in mid Nate.
I actually think this could get worse.
Like I can, I can, I can see more scenarios about how this can get worse before it can get better when more teams have more tape, it’s just gonna get worse.
And I hate how many stop routes they on stop routes are extended.
Hitch routes, you know, 10 to 12 yards on the outside.
Dak loves them.
I hate them like they, they are, that is a relic of old football.
That is an old offensive attack that I even grew up in.
But those times have passed, there’s a time and place for them, but you shouldn’t rely on those as your base concepts to have those because it’s just too hard to win that way.
