Mike McCarthy’s implementation of West Coast facets highlight some of the changes made to the Cowboys’ offensive unit.
Not all the interceptions were his fault. Some were the result of balls bouncing off receivers, others were because Prescott was pressured into making an errant throw and other times the cornerback or safety just made a better play on the ball. The Cowboys want to help Prescott’s ball security, so they’re making the quarterback’s footwork more aligned with the receivers.
That will be something to watch for this season. Prescott will be taking three- or five-step drops and getting rid of the ball, so the receivers need to be ready.Outside of Mike McCarthy saying he wants to run the ball more and the numerous elements of the West Coast offense being introduced, starting running back Tony Pollard will get more carries. The question is, how many? As the backup, Pollard had 424 carries the last three seasons.
The Cowboys have faith he can handle not only the increased workload but also the pass protection that comes along with more time in the backfield.
