What you call excuses are simply facts. In 2018 the line was riddled with injuries. Offense was struggling and we gave up almost 60 sacks that year. Trolls like you kept saying it was Daks fault. Remember changing sacks to a QB stat? LOL Those of us that understand the game tried to educate you that it was the Oline. Low and behold the line got healthy in 2019 and Dak was only sacked 28 times. You were proven dead wrong. Case closed
Also in 2018 the "receiver by committee" approach was ridiculous. Dak had little to throw. We tried to tell you it was a BIG reason why the offense was stalling and Dak and the passing game. Of course you blamed Dak. "Dak cant throw for 300 yards", ect......ect.... Again, those of us that understand football tried to explain the void in passing weapons and the importance of them to a QB. Cowboys were 3-5. The moment they trade for Cooper the entier season turns around. Dak is averaging 275 yards passing per game and the passing game catches fire. Cowboys go 7-1 down the stretch, make the playoffs, and win a playoff game. Once again you were prove DEAD WRONG. Case closed.
You are what a I call a QB challenged fan. You dont understand the dynamics of the QB position or how the different aspects of the team work together. Its actually, not about what Dak needs as much as it is what the team needs.
No different than a RB needing and Oline to block for him, a QB needs the same thing in order to do his job to the best of his abilities. WR's need a quality QB to hit them when they are open. A QB needs WR's that get open. They need a scheme that maximizes their abilities and exploits the mismatches against whatever defense they are playing as well as being unpredictable.
This stuff is football 101. And obviously the entire team will go further the better the defense, the more turnovers and better field position they can give their offense. Having to drive 85 yards to score every time is more difficult than having to go 30 yards after a turnover with momentum.
You show an complete inability to understand these basic concepts. Like a naive child you think that everything is all about the QB. I probably believed that when I was 12 until I learned to understand the game. Are you 12? I dont think so.
As far as Dak being clutch he was as clutch as it got his first 3 years. Those are just the facts. Led the NFL in last drive wins. As far as 2019 he definitely wasnt as clutch. NO question about that. He had a few opportunities and didnt get it done like he did previously. Some were his fault, others werent. Thats the NFL. Which again, you fail to grasp.
You are always one to attack the poster around here, calling them trolls and such, and then you paint yourself as quite the expert when others around here don't think so. Anyway the point you keep missing is, well you say Dak, and now "no the team" needs this and that, but back then it was Dak needs this and that. The thing that many of us were trying to tell you when you clapped both palms to your face and made that home alone face, is that nothing has change. I mean here you are stating what Dak, and now no the team needs, and well most of us are left wondering why you bring this up now, after years of bad drafting by the Jones there have been plenty of times this team has had more holes in it than swiss cheese. Dak needs an offensive line, Romo played under one of the worse offensive lines ever seen in the NFL. Dak needs Defense; Romo played under some awful one of those. If you would listen to others besides yourself, perhaps you would get the point that, that 2016 team that Dak played under might be the best team he'll ever play under. I know I made the point many times that Dak will have much worse offensive lines and defenses if he is the long term QB around here, He'll have crappy receivers at some point of time. Heck, Aikman for the longest of times only had Irvin and no real number 2. The point we were making is that it seems very whiny to cry about all the things that Dak lacks around him, when that is just a given in today's salary cap age, and on a team with a history of bad drafting.
