The Cowboys' offense has resembled a yo-yo form-wise this season, and it isn't something Lamb is too fond of.
The Dallas Cowboys' offense hasn't been the high-octane unit fans expected this season. In fact, it's been rather disjointed.
One week, the unit looks like GOTI, then the next, it is struggling against a lowly Arizona Cardinals team despite scoring 30 points.
For a unit that has Dak Prescott, CeeDee Lamb, George Pickens, Javonte Williams, Ryan Flournoy, Jake Ferguson, and others, it is a little odd that everything, at least right now, appears to be a struggle.
Consistency is the name of the game for every team in football, but the Cowboys, under Brian Schottenheimer, haven't had it this season.
So, how do the Cowboys get back some of that feel-good vibe from the Philadelphia Eagles game and move on from the Cardinals disaster?
Lamb has an idea.
"We just got to play the game," Lamb said. "We got to just make it much more simpler. I feel like we complicate it in a way to some degree on certain times where I feel like we're not coming up and getting a first down on third downs and things of that nature.
"I don't really like talk continuing to talk about this week in and week out as if I got it figured out, and then we go out there and do what we do, but you got to go out there and play ball."
After the Eagles game, the Cowboys' offense felt like it was back on track.
They scored 38 points, ran the ball for over 200 yards, both Lamb and Pickens had good performances, and all was right with the world.
Then the Arizona debacle happened.
But why?
"We stop ourselves, that (expletive) is frustrating," Lamb added. "It's annoying. I hate it. Then ultimately we end up losing. So there's that."
Given the amount of talent on this offense, coupled with the "elite play-caller" in Schottenheimer, we really shouldn't even be talking about offensive inconsistency, should we?
Pro Bowlers everywhere, an All-Pro receiver, a veteran quarterback, it's all there isn't it?
Plus, multiple times this season, the game has been there for the Cowboys to win (Ravens and Cardinals), yet the offense has failed to get it done.
"Yeah, a smiling Lamb said. "It's annoying."
So here come the Indianapolis Colts, in fire-sale mode, giving up 27 points per game this season (30th) and fresh off a 42-7 beatdown by the Jacksonville Jaguars.
If this Cowboys offense, with the weapons they have, can't get it together against the Colts?
Well, then it might be time for some serious changes.
