Offense's "identity"

[mount lefroy]

So hd6 i listened to your show and it seems you took exception to clint stoerner saying we didnt have an identity on offense. I think he's speaking from a tv persons view. Meaning our identity for the last 3 seasons has been Dak and his performance. If that is true, we do lack an identity until we have a player or players step up and give us one. Our fans know we are going back to a more read option game, but i dont think the listening public knows us for that.

We only lack an identity due to the fact that our main identity is starting for the cowboys. We'll have one soon enough.

Identity is something for the commentators to chew on and throw around as a reason for a team winning or losing. I doubt Mullen is losing sleep at night because our offense does not have an "identity"

The QB's will be running it downhill again, that will be part of the new

identity.

I heard OM will be using a fake identity.

I heard OM will be using a fake identity.

"Masked" identity: gas or hooded

But people that fake their own death usually build a new identity.

Hard to have a long term identity when Mullen likes to have an offense that balances run and pass. Sometimes it is really odd how close the yardage comparison and play calling comparisons are. So we are not known as a passing team or a running team. It depends on the skills of the players. I guess our identity over the Mullen years should really be that we are a balanced team...

Other than 2012 when we were exactly 50/50 run pass and last year when we were a little more pass vs the run, we have always been more of a running team under Mullen. Especially his first couple of years. Extremely run heavy. Our best year in 2014, we were 58% run to 42% pass. And you can only look at play calling really. Yardage can be misleading as you can't really control that.
