The west coast offense is so much more then what I could put in this video! Bill Walsh was a genius!! Im excited for this season!!

[@patrickfurlong9169]

Actually Jerry Burns and Bud Grant and those 1970's Minnesota Vikings teams were the inventors of the west coast offense. There just wasn't a name for it, Walsh copied them,that dink and dunk $#it has been around forever .

[@thelogicalcowboy]

@@patrickfurlong9169 I have to respectfully disagree with you, Patrick. Al Davis received the concept from Sid Gillman when he was the Chargers' wide receiver coach in the early 60s and brought it to the Raiders in '66. At the time, Bill Walsh was the running back coach. He took Sid Gillman's concept and became the first coach to formulate it into a true offensive scheme with the Bengals. Fran Tarkenton ran a form of the West Coast offense a year after Al Davis brought it to the Raiders in '66. Tarkenton was with the Giants, not the Vikings at that time. Tarkenton and the Giants ran a form of the concept out of necessity, not because of a concept. Thanks for watching 🙏

[@patrickfurlong9169]

Gillman was the first one to throw more than he ran but I don't know if his offense featured a lot of west coast concepts. I would have to look at some old tape. I would love to pick Tarkington's brain on this subject.

[@thelogicalcowboy]

@@patrickfurlong9169 If you want to read up on it, the link below provides a great summary and discusses Gillman's West Coast offense and how Walsh was the one who formulated the concept into fruition but didn't necessarily create it. www.google.com/amp/s/syndication.bleacherreport.com/amp/76008-the-real-west-coast-offense.amp.html Another excellent resource is Wikipedia.

I followed the Packers quite a while since Aron Rodgers went to Cal. McCarthy is underated, and I like his ball control philosophy. I was actually quite happy when hired at Dallas. Just knew that he needed some time

[@cowboyschad5x778]

Great video 🔥🔥🔥, Looking forward to seeing MM run his offense, According to a Jalen Tolbert interview KM was asking the receivers to read defenses mid route, The more you have to think the more likely you are to hesitate and in a game of inches and seconds that’s never good. We might score less points than with KM but we won’t wear down our defense and our offense will be more efficient overall and we will be a better team playing complimentary football. I’m not a KM hater I just don’t think what he was doing was working for this team and I’m stoked to have MM finally get a chance to fully coach.

[@thelogicalcowboy]

I'm with you. I think Kellen Moore is going to be an amazing OC, (maybe) one of the best we've ever seen. I think his problem was that we hired him early in his career with absolutely no experience. His biggest issue was that he didn't know how to adjust, and sometimes he was overzealous. McCarthy has been there and done that. Just based off of experience we're definitely going to see a more proficient upgrade in our offense, which, to me, will lead to more consistent points. Maybe not more total points than Moore's offense, but it'll be more consistent vs good teams. Which is scary. Like sb scary! Thanks, bro!

LC I love your ability to blend in both the old and the new in your videos. Brilliant.

[@BonnScott1980]

Good info. One thing I always liked about Walshes teams was the scripting of the first 15 plays, this had to really payoff in big games where the team is often a little nervous on the first drive. They just had to do what they were programmed to do and didn't have the chance to over think it. I think that kind of structure would benefit Dak in divisional games.

[@thelogicalcowboy]

Thanks, CS! What's crazy is that most teams had at least 15 scripted plays, especially back then. But Walsh was known to have 25 scripted plays. The 49ers practiced those 25 plays more than any other play of the game. No matter what other teams did, as you said, they kept steady with the program. That offense was an oiled machine.

A lot of great points in this video. But with all those drops do you think the Cowboys have the RECEIVERS to execute a precision offense well? Hopefully. Norv Turner brought a timing offense to Dallas in the early 90s that worked with their personnel then. Maybe a greater emphasis on timing and precision will have tangential benefits like cutting down on overall sloppy play.

[@thelogicalcowboy]

Yeah, I think that's the point. The players will play with more confidence, which will lead to more efficiency. When you don't have to think as much because you know where you're supposed to be, you end up playing better and faster. Everyone will know their assignments.

[@thelogicalcowboy]

Norv Turner's version of the Air Coryell was beautiful. Although he received his philosophy from Zampese, he always had way more timing routes than both Coryell and Zampese ever did.

[@dwightlove3704]

There are some concepts of this offense that were taken from a school called Mississippi Valley St that produced Jerry Rice who said that he anything he used in his early years in San Francisco he had used in college.

What youre missing is AC is built around a Big Strong TE that can get down the field and make the catch like Kellon Winslow. DC wanted teams to Play cover 2.

[@leewood331]

Sidney Gillman when he was with the Chargers invented the West Coast Offense.

[@Gorfvan]

You can look at all the Dak stats you want. The stats aren’t going to tell you one important thing that makes him bad for this style of offense. And that is, HE DOESN’T LEAD RECEIVERS. Yes he has good completion percentages, but his receivers usually have to stop, slowdown, drop down, or catch on the wrong shoulder. He does a good job on jump balls, back shoulder fades, comebacks, and sideline throws, but have a receiver streaking horizontaly and Dak will slow him down. So focusing on short passes where you want YAC, forget it.

If Pollard didn’t get hurt we would of won the SF game. Is losing by 6 and 7 points really imploding? If anything Daniel Jones imploded, Imploded means you get stomped imo. Does he get any credit for beating Tampa Bay on the road? If he’s more successful this season and we go even further in the playoffs then I guess it was a coaching issue. If he regresses then there’s really nowhere else to put the blame. Guess we will have to wait and see, I do think KM running the clapper era system was hindering us but time will tell.

Cowboy means one who tends cattle or horses . Most of cowboys live in Texas. Many cowboys in old west had been civil war soldiers. Cowboys typically lived in bunk houses . Cowboys developed distinct style of clothing. Rodeos were created to test skills of cowboys in roping and other launching activities. Most famous cowboys such as willd Bill Hickok, Wyatt Earp . Several women as cowhands alongside males. Iam so sorry to be little long but reading and writing both are great ways to improve our English as none native speakers. Happy father day in advance.

I guess it goes without saying that having a QB like Joe Montana helped the West Coast offense thrive in San Francisco. I hope it's a real West Coast offense instead of that run and shoot that Houston ran in the late 80s and early 90s. The run and shoot was too one dimensional and too predictable.

[@thelogicalcowboy]

The run and shoot offenses in the 90s are similar to the Air Coryell offense. But what's going to separate Dallas from a lot of what we've seen before is that McCarthy is a true West Coast guy. Trust me, we're going to see a lot of West Coast plays, more than we've ever seen in our history. LOL. If that's the case this offense will be nothing like the run n shoot offenses of the past. Thanks bro!

[@Deezboyzjustwin]

Kelly Moore scarp the west coast part of the offense because dak struggles with Timing and anticipation and going through his progressions that’s why he added the option routes it will still come down to Dak ability to read defenses and make decisions

[@cowboyschad5x778]

According to who? Is that according to KM? According to Jalen Tolbert the receivers were having to read defenses mid route, KMs offense was stupid. I don’t think he made it extra complicated because Daks timing if anything you’d make your offense more simple if that was really the case. If we get to the Super Bowl I wonder if Cowboys fans who are Dak haters will be able to say “guess I was wrong it was KM” and on the other side of the coin I wonder if Cowboys fans who are Dak lovers will be able to admit 4 was the problem if things don’t go well.

[@thelogicalcowboy]

You cannot say that Dak has issues with timing and anticipation. We need to be fair across the board. In the video, I presented data that displayed Dak's proficiency when throwing quick timing and rhythm passes that were 2.5 seconds or less. His numbers were elite in that category. Moore's long stop routes posed problems for Dak, and the numbers support it. Moore requires a strong-armed quarterback with a quick release to execute his system and make those deep stop routes successful. Dak lacks a strong Brett Favre arm that is necessary for throwing a deep curl across the field, nor does he have the quick release to do so. You can't just put it all on dak. It was the system too.

two topics I would like to see . Why did the Cowboys lose Superbowl 13 and why did the Cowboys lose the NFC championship in 1981

[@thelogicalcowboy]

Good idea!

[@arcticraven2462]

​@thelogicalcowboy the Cliff Harris video pretty much explains why they lost 13 with the pass coverage in the first half and they didn't run Dorsett enough. Pittsburgh always had Dallas' number in the 70s. As good as Dallas DBS were they couldn't cover Swann and Stallworth but no one in the league could. 81 game was even until the Catch but Dallas was in field goal range until Danny White fumbled on the last drive inside SF territory. One of Danny White's reasons for being called a loser...the catch wouldn't have existed if Danny hadn't fumbled and they had kicked a fg and won. Dallas got blew out in the regular season by SF and Landry went back to the drawing board to beat them in the championship game. I always thought Landry got too fancy playing Pittsburgh with trick plays that didn't work either. Landry could not physically match up to the Steelers. The only team that could in the league was Oakland. In all honesty the best games of the mid and late 70s were in the AFC playoffs.

But I will say it's a major improvement in the pass schematics compared to what they've been doing the past 15 years. I liked Moore's run game schematics, but his passing game schematics were dreadful because they were basically Garrett's schematics outside of using more bunch formations, trips, and the occasional goofy quad formation

I dunno... He often looks perplexed on the sidelines when shit is going bad. He sacrificed Kellen Moore to be the fall guy for his lack of success up until now. His D coordinator is great so who will he blame next? Dak Prescott I guess.

kzbin.info/www/bejne/jWGUi4qLg7WXras I really liked the breakdown on Dak's stats. Dak has got to get a bit quicker on his reads and his progressions and I think he will prosper in this style of offense. Look at Romo to Dez, some of those throws are into very small windows. Professional breakdown!

They play very sloppy football and have for the past twenty-five years. Also they are consistently overrated. Dak is a good QB just not great and his receivers are good receivers, just not great. Dak isn't the best at reading defenses and they aren't the best route runners. I believe Dak is good enough to make it to a SB, (after all Rex Grossman made it to one) But he's going to need great coaching to work around his weaknesses and a GREAT defense who can consistently get off the field on 3rd down. They will never have great coaching as long as JJ is around because he considers himself the coach. Johnson and Parcells were the best Jerry had (both disciplinarians) and he got rid of both. Jerry loves making big moves in the off season to generate media but always falls short in the playoffs. Hope I'm wrong, but...... Once again great video!

[@thelogicalcowboy]

Thanks CJ. I understand your frustration brother!

[@donobedabest8446]

Drew Brees said Dak is one of the best at reading defenses. The problem was it was easy to fool the RECEIVERS in Kellen Moore’s “No Identity Offense”

Schottenheimer will turn the Cowboys into a dominating offensive powerhouse.

[@thelogicalcowboy]

I agree

[@zacdorsey1906]

I'm not sure we will see enough change that will make this offense the cream of the crop. I think it will take a season before it starts rolling. I hope I'm wrong, but usually switching offenses takes time to get continuity with all that said we will look different. I hope we're drastically better offensively.

[@jamessalter571]

The west coast is not a hard offense to implement. That's why quarterbacks like Aaron Rodgers, Bret farve, Montana, Gannon had huge seasons their first year in this system.

[@thelogicalcowboy]

I hope I'm right lol. Only time will tell! Thanks for watching 🙏

[@zacdorsey1906]

@THE LOGICAL COWBOY thanks for the content

[@zacdorsey1906]

@James Salter This is true. The passing concepts explained in the video I believe will help Dak's growth. Usually it takes a second for it all to come together. The coaches are flexible too I hope to see a better offensive scheme this year.

[@jamessalter571]

@@zacdorsey1906 Usually it does if it's the coaches first season with a team. But remember Mccarthy has already introduced the WCO since 2020. It wasn't full fledged yet like it is now but the concept is not foreign to the playes. I'm pretty sure the coaching staff knew this was coming for a long time now.The same coaches are still here except for Moore.

Dak is not the QB for this offense. This is why Dallas will fail

[@Deezboyzjustwin]

The west coast offense is based of timing and press Tampa 2 destroys it now defenses has safeties playing the middle linebacker spot in nickel which coverts that tampa 2 shell to a confusing cover 3 on backend it still boils down to can dak read the defense and get rid of the ball with with accuracy with the speeder pass rush in today’s NFL

[@thelogicalcowboy]

What's up, bro?!! Always enjoy your perspective! One thing I love about this offense is that it will have aspects of Schottenheimer's modern version of the Air Coryell, which destroys Tampa 2 defenses, especially vertical routes up the sidelines, drive routes that attack the high low middle of the field just under the linebacker, and seam routes that attack on the numbers. If teams run a Tampa 2, guys like Cook and Gallup will feast on deep sideline passes, while Lamb will feast horizontally, and our TEs will eat up the seams or on dig routes. Keep in mind, the Tampa Cover 2 is not the best defense against the run, particularly on delay runs. Schottenheimer is one of the best run designers in football. If the defense leaves the box open by sending their middle LB/SF in coverage up the field, Pollard and Duece will eat that middle defense alive. When it comes to generating pressure (unless you have a Warren Sapp), Dak will not be under pressure as often as other defenses because you can't blitz often in a Tampa 2. This means Dak will have more time in the pocket to make his reads and decisions. You're not going to be able to put this offense into a box like previous west coast offenses.

[@Deezboyzjustwin]

@@thelogicalcowboy in phases the shorts quick passing game of the west coast tampa 2 is a west coast stopper. The addition of air coryell will be Kellen moore offense that is there already then it’s longer west coast that’s when defenses disguise that they are in cover 3 it will be a chest match. Tampa 2 will only rush the front but that’s all giants washington eagles chargers patriots jets rams needs is there front to get to quarterbacks But the main thing is dak struggles with his timing and anticipation and deep intermediate route’s except the go ball or 9 route he throw ball behind receivers on digs and our slants or late often And press man zone is other ways to disrupt the timing of the west coast short game I hope it work but to many ifs for me OTAs against air and against no contract practice it will look good

[@thelogicalcowboy]

@@Deezboyzjustwin Again the don Coryell kills the tampa 2!! Those teams are not getting to dak with just their front 4 lol. Schottenheimer will definitely install his own version of the Air Coryell offense, which should not be difficult to do. I'm not saying that it'll be a lot of changes because, at the end of the day, a Coryell offense is a Coryell offense. There isn't that much to change; however, Kellen Moore's version contained too many stop routes that resulted in Prescott throwing too many interceptions. That won't happen with Schottenheimer designing the plays. Schottenheimer likes to keep his receivers on the move, and so does McCarthy. I agree that it will be a chess match that, I believe, will favor us. Dak's accuracy against zone coverage and cover 2 defenses, he posted a 0.419 EPA/play last season, which is phenomenal. In the game against the Eagles, a heavy zone defense, Dak earned a season-high 91 NGS passing score in Week 16. He completed 24 passes against zone coverage for 300 yards & 3 TD, earning the only perfect 99 NGS passing score vs zone in a game since 2018. Dak is highly accurate and underrated, but to your point he does at times have issues against traditional cover 2 looks such as Tampa 2. New concepts will be helpful for him in these situations.

[@Deezboyzjustwin]

@@thelogicalcowboy see people kills me with the Kellen blame why isn’t Billy Gonzalez Scott Linehan blames routes on the move are go routes 9 dak is good with that because either it’s complete or over thrown routes on the move are slants outs ends crossers digs which consist of timing anticipation which dak struggles with so like a good OC Kellen built a offense to fit Dak strengths routes that is a easier target to hit You have excess to more film than me without being bias go look a 10 slant out routes maybe 2 was on target that the receivers didn’t have to slow down to adjust for the ball

[@Deezboyzjustwin]

@@thelogicalcowboy stats and percentage mean nothing without context because against bad depleted injured defenses he pad those stats tell me his percentage against washington and giants Tampa 1st game 49ers jaguars colts titans Texans how about top 10 defenses not missing key players

[@terrenceliburd8655]

What people, dont realize in my humble opinion the Cowboys could of went further in the P.O. if they would have let Dak "dink and dunk" and let the running game and defence take us to the Super Bowl. It's time to let Dak just manage the game and play smash mouth running.

[@terrenceliburd8655]

I'm surprised you like the comment, because since Dak is getting all that bread Cowboys fanatics figure he needs to throw the ball. If our defence has improved from last season, a smash mouth running game and a hellacious defence will have us hoisting the Lombardi trophy again. LC in the last two game against the 49'ers I think our defence has given up a total of 3 TD's! What's bugged out about that is we scored the same amount of touchdowns as well. Smh. HOW BOUT DEM COWBOYS!

[@deadlyoneable]

I don’t know man…..I put a lot of it on Dak with the INTs, especially the later half of last season and the exit from the playoffs, but my patience is starting to wear thin on this guy. I’ve not been too impressed with mccarthey so far.

[@thelogicalcowboy]

I understand bro! At one point I've had the same mindset that you have right now. Lol. Hopefully this season will turn it around. One of the commenters said that im being too optimistic loll. Maybe I am lol thanks again bro!

[@deadlyoneable]

@@thelogicalcowboy a lot of people (not all) also blame this guy for GB not having more than one ring when they were stacked and had Rogers so……🤷🏻

[@thelogicalcowboy]

@@deadlyoneable One thing that I like about McCarthy is that he was humble enough to admit where he went wrong during those years. During the couple of years when he wasn't coaching, he and other coaches who had been laid off spent time devising new and improved concepts that I believe we'll see this season. Dan Quinn did the same thing with his previous defenses, and look at how that paid off. It's not how you start but how you finish. Thanks again bro!

[@dcoopthemann]

MY THING IS THIS: Is McCarthy talking about the "OLD" WEST COAST OFFENSE, that he ran - and got STALE in Green Bay with, that even had QB Aaron "PRIMADONNA" Rodgers later admitting, McCarthy would call the plays, I would roll my eyes, change the play, then latet admitted, he lied to the coaches on the sidelines and said, the speaker in his helmet had stopped working, so he had to call a different play, so we're NOT talking about an "AUDIBLE" or is McCarthy talking about "MODERNIZING" his WEST COAST OFFENSE, like what or similar to what Andy Reid did in Kansas City? REMEMBER: Both Reid "AND" McCarthy was eventually FIRED! Reid was "MAN ENOUGH" and "MATURE ENOUGH" to admit what he was doing in Philly was no longer working, and he "MODERNIZED" it! Can McCarthy do the same? SIDE NOTE: Same thing with defensive coordinator Dan Quinn! I was 100% AGAINST the Quinn hiring, based on what he had done on defense that wasn't working anymore. Especially after that 28 - 3 lead MELTDOWN in the Super Bowl against the Patriots! There's NO WAY - NO WAY - they should've lost that Super Bowl - BUT THEY DID! But Quinn - like Reid - was "MAN ENOUGH" and "MATURE ENOUGH" to admit what he was doing, the league caught up to it, so he "MODERNIZED" it! Now, I don't worry about Quinn - AT ALL - and even trust him!!!

[@thelogicalcowboy]

What's up, Coop? It's the same offense, but with a lot of modifications - a lot modifications lol. In Green Bay, it was only the West Coast, so things got stale very quickly. Now, it's a combination of the Air Coryell offense. What I didn't mention in the video, and I'm mad that I forgot to mention, is that McCarthy's mentor, Paul Hackett, did something similar in the 80s when he was the Dallas Cowboys' offensive coordinator. Landry and Hackett combined the West Coast offense with Landry's offense, and it became a success. That was until Danny White injured his thumb, and the offense went downhill. It seems like McCarthy is trying to do what his mentor did.

[@dcoopthemann]

@THE LOGICAL COWBOY Yeah, I remember when the Cowboys brought in Paul Hackett - like it was yesterday! He actually was supposed to be the Cowboys' next Head Coach, BUT Jerry bought the team - and the rest is history, as they say! IN COMES Jimmy, OUT GOES Hackett! SIDE NOTE: NO. 1: White actually broke his wrist. SIDE NOTE: NO. 2: Now, go and sign "NUKE" Hopkins!!! He'd look real, real GOOD / GREAT in a NO. 10 Dallas Cowboys uniform!!! SIDE NOTE: NO. 3: CeeDee lamb, A.K.A., G.O.A.T. (that's my nickname for him, that's a play on his last name, not 'cause I think he's the "G.O.A.T.") wanted to wear NO. 10 when he was first drafted out of respect for "NUKE" Hopkins, before Jerry talked him into wearing NO. 88 after his old college WR friend whose name was "LAMB" and who wore NO. 88, that recently passed away around the time the Cowboys drafted Lamb! What BETTER WAY to "HONOR" Lamb than to "TEAM HIM UP" with the WR he patterns his game after than to sign "NUKE!"

[@thelogicalcowboy]

@@dcoopthemann Oh, if we get Hopkins, we are going to have to put all of our haters on suicide watch 😂 😂

[@dcoopthemann]

@THE LOGICAL COWBOY Yeah. They're already hanging off the ledge, as it is! BESIDES: Signing "NUKE" Hopkins will take some of the sting out of - and make up for - trading COOP, especially for the LAME A** compensation they got for him. And I'm not saying this just because my name is "COOP." He legitimately should still be on the team! SMFH.

Dallas needs a new Starting QB Dak is the Cowboys only problem moving forward

[@PlanetEarth3141]

Sorry LC, but I disagree with you. Cowboys have no training in this concept. They don't have the players to implement it. Their history doesn't use it. The NFC East is a run offense and defense history. And I have no confidence in McCarthy being able to teach it or get the present players psychologically to accept it. It's barking up the wrong tree and a decades old concept. What is needed is a new concept and Dallas is clueless for that like most NFL teams.
