Who hates him?
I was one who thought Romo should get his job back, but I was never "ultra salty". I thought he gave us a better chance in the playoffs.I have to disagree. Some on here didn't like Dak from the beginning and got ultra salty even Romo was "healthy" and sat on the bench as a backup
Here is a thought, how many people were talking poorly of Dak in 2016 ?????
How many " haters" were posting here?? ( haters = anyone who wants another qb or thinks dak isnt good enough,
or thinks he is good but not worth the money he is demanding.)
None I would guess, this all took the last 3 years to develop and then add in the whole longest contract debate ever, and dak wanting
to be top salary at point of signing, and yeah we have some people that are saying dont sign him.
It is NOT like people have been against dak since day 1.
Same thing for elliot back in 16, but this is years later and both have been meh for last 3 years.
They have good stats, but that has not translated to much season wise or in playoffs the last 3 years.
There are valid reasons for people to think dak is not the right guy, especially now that his pay will
go up what 35 times what he was making?
Again my point is this didnt happen overnight, and didnt really start until late into 2017.
Some slid back in 2018, but then after a 8-8 season and the last phil game , the whole
not liking dak started up in earnest, and then this contract thing has made it snowball.

But I rooted for Dak just as hard as I would have for Tony.
None of this makes me a hater, it was just my opinion, which in reality means nothing to anyone else but me. There's so many arguments over opinions on here that it's comical. That last line was not directed at you, just in general.
I think I'm the only one on here that's admitted to that.Nah, there were still some unsold on his performance. And some who felt Romo got screwed and blamed Dak
Very true. I had to put some on ignore because of it.I have to disagree. Some on here didn't like Dak from the beginning and got ultra salty even Romo was "healthy" and sat on the bench as a backup
That's good rational thinking. And as much as I don't like to admit it, the Cowboys did the right thing.for me it was never about the playoffs. We didn’t have a legitimate shot to win a sb anyway.
for me it was about moving on with the new guy and getting him the experience. Takes years to groom most qbs.
No one 'hates' him now. What most dislike is the outright greed without earning it.
Sure, Dak had a great season in 2016, but lets not forget why the season went well. Romo was supposed to be the starter with Dak as the 3rd backup. The rest of the NFL had plenty of film on Romo, but nothing on #3, who unexpectedly got tossed into the mix when #1 and #2 went down. If you remember, Dak started going downhill later in the season as the film on him expanded and the rest of the NFL started catching on to his tendencies.
Dak is not a bad QB, but he hasn't come anywhere close to earning top tier money like Mahomes. If it makes some people trolls or haters for feeling that way then so be it.

ExactlyWho hates him?
Dak beat winning teams and led fourth quarter comebacks in 2016, while being paid $1m
2019, not so much and is asking for $35m+ a year
Romo was fully healed and medically cleared to play.Romo's heart didn't want to quit, but the rest of his body did. Too many broken backs, broken collar bones, broken fingers and cracked ribs.
It was time for Romo to quit.
I do not hate Dak at all, I just do not think he is worth top 5 QB cash. Kinda disappointed in his greed is all, I mean the guy was a 4th round pick.
No one hates Dak. That's a common misconception created by the jock sniffers to debate a strawman.
In reality all we want is a franchise QB that justifies paying him what he's worth.
Dak can become

I did blame Dak. Dumb, irrational, uncalled for? Yes, it was stupid on my part and I readily admit it. Romo, along with Woodson, and Randy White were my all time fav Cowboys so of course I wanted him on the field. But I understood the decision to go with Dak.
And I rooted for Dak just as hard as I did when Tony wasn't available. I'm a Cowboy fan first, but I can also admit when I do stupid things. And holding that against Dak was stupid.
