A major component of
The Dallas Cowboys Times is the use of game tape to study the Cowboys and draw conclusions about players' play not based on media hype, but
objective statistical research and film study. We currently track a variety of aspects of each offensive play:
Down & Distance
Field Position
Personnel
Formation
Motions/Shifts
Checks
Game Time
Run/Pass
Run Hole/Pass Location & Distance
Draws/Counters
Screens/Playaction Passes/Rollouts
No-Huddle Stats
Stats vs. Blitz
Blocking Stats
Yards Per Play When Witten Blocks vs. Runs Route
Play-Calling Trends
By compiling a database of this and other information, it is very easy to sort and subsequently obtain seemingly complex results, such as yards per play when Romo checks on 3rd down, or the difference between using Felix Jones and Marion Barber on 1st and 2nd down draws, for example. It is this innovative and unique approach to studying the Cowboys upon which we thrive and hope you will enjoy.
