Green Bay Packers vs. Dallas Cowboys (away vs. home)

What is the Offensive Coordinator equivalent to in the corporate world?
He's the VP of Offense. Jason Garrett is our SVP, and the Jones family represents the C-suite team.
Kellen Moore, the man of the hour. He's our Offensive Coordinator, whom has received the highest praise for the first three weeks of the season, until last week. We lost, badly, to the New Orleans Saints, with their back-up Quarterback and a Defense that shut us down. No Brees, No Problem? Well, there was still a problem. We became predictable again.
It wasn't about the score. Losing by two points wasn't a big deal. But it is a big deal to lose, while looking like you lost your Offense, going into a week where we play the Green Bay Packers.
What do we do?
Well, this is where I leave it up to football experts. "They say" that we only throw the ball when Dak takes a snap in shotgun formation and run when Dak is Under Center. This makes us predictable.
What? Under Center? Shotgun? This is not a Miranda Lambert song... just football... no little red wagons here.
Shotgun formation is where Dak stands away from the Offensive Line, hikes his foot up in the air, like a horse, yells a few things that don't make any sense, points at a few defensive players and then finally calls for the Center to hike the ball to him. Then he passes (aka throws) the ball to one of our WR's (wide receivers), TE's (tight ends) or RB's (running backs). In the case where no one is open (in position to catch the ball without the Defense getting it #interception), Dak sometimes runs himself or throws the ball away (not into play).
Under Center is when Dak stands behind the middle guy in the Offensive Line and takes the snap there. Usually handing it off to Zeke to run it up the middle or a different route. I have seen us use this position to run play action, but nothing we did last week worked.
I can bust out the stats, but this guy did a great job explaining the percentages of what and why we did this differently this past week vs. the previous three weeks.
Bottom line: we faced a great defense in the New Orleans Saints. We were out played. We lost.
Green Bay. 3-1 in the NFC North.
Aaron Rogers. Y'all. This team has won three games, but not in the fashion we'd normally expect them to. They've had a lot of injuries and Rogers has had to overcome that. Davante Adams, his top WR, who averages 15.1 yards per catch, is out this week vs. the Cowboys with a toe injury. Next man up in GB.
As for their Defense.
They rank 4th in the league in force fumbles and fumble recoveries and 9th in the league in sacks. We will get a lot of pressure, again, on our O-Line and Dak as he's throwing the ball down the field. Zeke only rushed for 35 yards last week. Hopefully we can get back to the creativity we saw in the first games and maybe throw in a few trick plays to get us to where we need to be to beat these Packers.
Tough game. Packers were defeated by the Eagles last week (eww). But I think we can pull it off. Barely.

Random Info...
One word... fri-ttaaa-tta.
I try to make everything from scratch, if I can. But sometimes, you're in a hurry and you just need a quick option. I go with the Egg White Frittata from Costco.
It's clean-ish for a frozen, fast option, and it tastes really good!
They're all individually packed too, so you don't have to bake 10 of them at one time. You can eat one at a time. And if you need more food, you could add more veggies on the side or a meat with it.
