Dallas Cowboys assistant coach: “Our receivers don’t win”

Through the first five weeks of the regular season, the Dallas Cowboys possess the 28th worst passing offense in the NFL. And that’s fine considering this team has been built to run the football, with four first-round selections being spent on the offensive line and running back since 2011. Plus a second-round pick that was used on starting left guard Connor Williams earlier this year.

With 2016 fourth round quarterback Dak Prescott under center, the Cowboys are considered a very conservative passing offense anyway. What Dallas really needs are receivers who step up when their number is called, especially when opposing defenses stuff the run.
