Just211- actually, you make a valid point there. Short passes are a huge part of that scheme. However..the west coast offense uses those passes to open up the intermediate and deep routes by pulling up the DB's. Carter hasn't yet shown the ability to throw intermediate and deep routes consistently...(my opinion-at all). Carter throws a lot of -3 to +3 yard passes and the backs or receivers make a lot of yards after the catch. If it works and they win as a result...excellent. Unfortunately, the Cownboys are being exposed at this point. I think Carter will start going deeper downfield this week as a result. I just hope he connects. Anyway....your point was a good one.
