It’s not a big secret that the Dallas Cowboys have become known as a team that wants to run the football. Success this season will rely on offensive coordinator Scott Linehan being creative within head coach Jason Garrett‘s Air Coryell offensive system.
In the NFL, offensive creativity is usually exhibited in the passing game. That doesn’t bode well for a run first team with an offense often described as vanilla or simplistic. Every NFL running back is limited to a few options when handed the football.
The back can run through the infamous ‘A-gap’ between the center and guard.
