I don't have the numbers in front of me, but the redzone offense other than the NYG game seems to me to have been good so far.
The GB game the two TD's to Beasley were really good calls and play designs, and they were plays I don't remember seeing us run before.
Butler ran a route almost every team runs for the other redzone TD. It was a good route, great throw and very nice catch for the score.
In the Bengal game when they were in the red zone and just needed a first down something seemed to depress the creativity and were stifled. In the Green Bay game, 3 TDs is great and Beasley's plays were brilliant. But when you have 3 FGs too, in a way, those are 3 red zone failures and my concern is if you look at the history of Garrett with the Cowboys (minus years 2007, 2009 and 2014 when they were RB strong) and Linehan in old Ram articles, the red zone is a problem if left unattended. My hunch is that Garrett requests to go into empty backfield or shotgun with 1 blocking back in the red zone because "we like the chances" but it's a lazy and hazardous "play" that offers no natural advantage.
When they stay away from those plays and Linehan makes his own stew for the situation, Dallas with all of its options of Dak, Zeke, Dez, Wittem and Beasley should be unstoppable. But if they line up without even the hint that there could be a run and without any novel formations, it's just irresponsible and nonsensical.
