The WR group is somewhat mediocre and muddled due to no standouts, although Jakobi Meyers could ascend to the front of the pack. His scheme is typically heavy on wide zone-blocking concepts, which he ran with Mixon in Cincy in 2018 (Mixons most productive year). The use of 12 personnel was 10% higher than the league average at 30%. The Cowboys still derive much of their scheme from their Air Coryell past. DJ Moore and Robby Anderson will thrive.

Prominent coaches that use or used this scheme include Joe Gibbs, Norv Turner, Mike Martz, Bruce Arians (TB), Jason Garrett (NYG), and to a degree, Scott Turner (WAS).

For context, Tyrod Taylor handled 95/580/6 of that load while LeSean McCoy (234/1267/13) and Mike Gillislee (101/577/8) handled most of the RB carries. The Coryell offense introduced the concept of a tight end that ran wide receiver-type routes with Kellen Winslow in 1980. One can understand why Cutler hated Martz's offense so much. To be fair, Mike Martz's schemes would be really good if the Bears had the best offensive line in the league, multiple elite receivers, a top notch running back, and a quarterback that thrives on consistent, accurate throws rather than a gunslinger with an arm.
