If Dak struggles like he did in 2019, how long before Dalton steps in?

[leeblair]

Dak did not play well vs good teams in 2019. If he plays under the tag, the Cowboys are not bound to him long term.
At what point do you think he would be pulled?
I think that Dalton would get a shot if the Cowboys struggle to a .500 mark after 8 games, or if the Cowboys were to go into a three game losing streak early in the season.
How much leeway do you think McCarthy will give him if he is struggling?

I really don't see how. But if he does pull him before the bye.

It's a legitimate question.
If Dak plays like he did in 2019, at some point we have to try someone else.
This is why so many of us lobbied against giving him a long term deal.

STRUGGLES LIKE HE DID IN 2019? Your kidding. He was a shade under 5k yards passing and THATS struggling? OH MY.

Yet he was ineffective when the pressure was on.

better tell our division that..they missed your memo.

 

[Rayman70]

Has Dalton passed for over 5k yards in his career? JUST ASKIN

 

[America's Cowboy]

 

[Rayman70]

4293 YARDS PASSING IS THE BEST DALTON HAS DONE AND THAT WAS WAY BACK IN 2013. Last year he passed for 3400...and you all wanna bench Dak lol

 

[Hardline]

The only way Dak gets benched is if he's carted off the field.

1 yard shy of the Cowboy all time record. Pro Bowl. Yeah, he struggled so badly. Our fans are the dumbest anywhere.

 

[Scotman]

Unreal. If we go by 2019 performances, Dak would rightfully get benched after we benched the coaching staff, the entire defense, the leading-the-league-in-drops receivers, the I'm-working-out-in-Cabo RB, the special teams units including the kickers, and then kickers just so they could be benched twice. And Rowdy. And the lady who runs the cheerleading squad...because she's mean.

THEN...by all means...bench Dak next.

 

[Rayman70]

DAK LIT UP Minny..and if not for piss poor coaching, would have led us to a nice win. Give me that guy 8 days a week.

yeah but the majority of his good stats only happened against NFL teams over the first 4 quarters of games
