"Dak gets a B- this week. The structure of the offense still produced answers. There were completions available in the quick game and a few shot opportunities off play-action, and that rainbow ball for a touchdown was an absolute season highlight. But the timing wasn't consistently sharp and a couple of key throws were just a beat late or slightly off."
"I give a lot of credit to Chargers defensive coordinator Jesse Minter. The first half was all Dak, all day. George Pickens, in particular, was unstoppable. But Minter made major changes in the second half that completely stymied the offense, specifically limiting Pickens. By the time Prescott and Schottenheimer figured out how to adjust, they were in such a hole that it impacted the way they ran their offense."
The Cowboys offense created plays and produced a notable touchdown, yet inconsistent quarterback timing and a few slightly late or off throws reduced efficiency. Quick-game completions and play-action opportunities existed, but coverage and late defensive rotations narrowed middle-field windows. Chargers defensive coordinator Jesse Minter adjusted aggressively in the second half, specifically limiting George Pickens and changing looks to stymie the attack. By the time offensive staff adjusted, the game situation forced constrained play-calling and reduced effectiveness. Multiple skill players showed separation at times, but the overall result remained undercut by adjustments and execution lapses.
