Past two weeks has really highlighted lack of passing game too. One playcalling criticism I have is more with Jones running on the RPOs...there are times he should keep it that he doesn't...he reads it wrong at least once a game. I also noticed a couple of those misreads on the read option. and the poor touch on easy, but high leverage short throws. The game is slowing down for Jones, just not quite enough.

gmenroc Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 Officiating was questionable. Lamb got away with some offensive PI pushing off. There were some holds missed and phantom calls too. I think it was bad both ways though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A couple weeks ago I almost posted how this reminds me of the 2004 season. A good record, but a team obviously going nowhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might just be easier to chuck it deep with pressure in face than an accurate pass to the flat in same circumstance. Jones continues to not lose games, but not win them either.

I said it going into the week, we take solace in knowing we are going in right direction and that we have taken bigger steps than expected...but understand the reality that is our roster and is our injury situation. I will say that Jones has earned himself a contract offer, but under 30mil per year avg and with outs built in for injury given he is a running QB.

Thibs getting held and a few phantom calls against us… However the talent level between the two teams is obvious… especially at WR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueInCanada Posted November 25, 2022 Author Share Posted November 25, 2022 Well I thought it was a gonna be a blowout. They were in it for as long as they could be. Coaching seems to be there but this team isn't even close to competing with a team that has any sort of talent on the roster. We have no LBs, no WRs (healthy), and we need TEs to back up Bellinger.

Iceman_NYG Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 Dak was strictly average today and played worse than Jones but his WRs kept bailing him out with great catches. A luxury Jones does not have....AT ALL. I was expecting this result, but was pleasantly surprised that this team actually fought. If you just look at the roster and the injuries - there was no fucking way this game should have even been competitive let alone close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not sure going after OBJ is the right way to go though. I’d rather draft a stud big body WR than go for someone coming off a serious injury. Not to mention this team needs a whole lot more than just OBJ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nas Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 I thought it was disrespectful for McCarthy to go for it on 4th down in their territory so early on in the game. For that alone, I wish we’d stomped on them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It may be attributable to having so many guys who need a lot of help to get to their assignments. I noticed a lot of pre snap questions yesterday, often took way too long to get to the line.

I think making a play for him is smart for multiple reasons. If healthy, a generational talent who competes. Will immediately improve the roster. Will immediately improve Jones in short and long term. Only drawback is health. If passes a physical and accepts some level of injury protection (for Giants financially) in his contract...I think it's a no-brainer. Not to mention driving up the cost the Cowboys will have to pay should he eventually sign there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coaching was also having them huddle up after every play instead of going hurry up. And calling so many run plays. if you need to huddle up in that kind of scenario spike it.

BlueInCanada Posted November 25, 2022 Author Share Posted November 25, 2022 I think the late game play calling was just indicitive of the team we were fielding. Practice squad backups at WR, bench backups on the Oline. Some guys starting their first ever NFL game on a short week, most of them probably don't even know the play calls. Not excusable but understandable. Just the simple fact that we had to run a hurry up offense or attempt too in the final minutes of the game shows how far this team has come despite the injuries. We had zero business being in that game, and I"m entirely surprised by how the game played out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. P Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 Like I said, if they had to huddle up they should have been spiking then all and not running so many run plays. Regardless of the players we are fielding thats just flat out bad coaching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're down to what... a 4th string LG and two fourth string LBs? Fucking FOURTH stringers. We lost by 8 (should have been 4 if the refs don't fuck us) points to a healthy team littered with All-Pros all over the roster and I couldn't even tell you the names of half of our starters this week. This coaching staff is excellent and we have a lot to be happy about but there was no way we were winning this game; I was just happy that we we're competitive.
