That's not real high praise, considering Jason Garrett only had one losing season as coach and that was with Weeden, Cassell, and Kellen Moore at QB. We need a higher standard.

So what would the higher standard be, thats the a
The best part is watching you trolls post yourself into a corner.

First 3 years, winning and record didn't count. It didn't suite your agenda, it was all about Dak not putting up the stats.

Then all of a sudden Dak blows up with the stats and the Cowboys go 8-8 so now its not stats, its winning that matters. :muttley:

With Garrett gone and the team stacked...……...what are you going to do this year when the team goes 11-5 or better and DAk puts up the stats as well? Heck if we go deep into the playoffs you might blow a gasket.

Where will the troll logic go then?

Better start hoping for a cancelled season or injuries.

Poor little troll, you must be terrified!!!!! :oldcouple::dance::dance::yourock::yourock:


Imagine, with the line they have drawn in the sand about ONE PLAYER on "their" team, if Dak takes us to the superbowl they wont be able to enjoy it...... 25 years of heartache and they gonna be pissed about ONE PLAYER...and he has done nothing but good since he was thrown into the starting position.

I’m talking about yardage starting every position inside or on 30 yard line. Magine that all but one possession last year we started on the opponents side of the field. That’s the traveling an extra 40 yards of the drive.

Well if it wasn’t for the offense getting in position to kick a field goal that never would’ve happened either. Maybe if Elliot didn’t trip over ego he could’ve gotten one or two more for stones

Part of the benefits of a twelve step program are you eventually stop seeing pink spiders on the walls and tiny elephants floating around the room.

One would also assume the program would end any thinking that Jerry's Grandson, who is about 5'9", will ever play on an NFL team. Surely Jerry's ego isn't so large that he thinks he could take a height challenged relative and make him the starter at the most illustrious NFL franchise ever.

Just repeat this over and over.

Jerry, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, (Dak's contract situation)
courage to change the things I can, (To stop posting nonsense about Dak not wanting to play in Dallas, that he is greedy, and the worst QB in the league)
and wisdom to know the difference (Between the skill set of Dak and Dalton, who cannot get out of the way of a pass rush, and that Mini-Me Jones will never play for the Cowboys)

Just because it's French Cognac doesn't mean it won't make you cray cray. One day at a time.
He's 5'11" jus sayin.

Good to know you are in AA

The difference between Dallas at 26.19 and the average starting FP of 28.41 is a matter of two yards, meaning statistically insignificant. Dallas was 16th in the red zone and 22nd on the road, meaning when they got near to the TD, which is un-related to starting FP, they couldn’t put the ball in the end-zone.

Dallas was actually fifth at plays per drive, a half a drive more than the average, and had 170 drives, 14 MORE than the SB winning champions, the Chiefs.

That's a lot of it. Everybody touts this offense but the truth of it is that we move the ball a lot between the 20s. When we get into scoring position, we kinds suck. That's the truth Khiladi.

Dallas has been hovering at 50% the last two years. One could argue that Zeke and the RG were problematic last year, but this year Zeke and Dallas were basically top 5.

The problem is the passing game.

https://sportdfw.com/2019/12/04/dallas-cowboys-red-zone-problem/

Dak’s been so good running the ball in the red zone, teams have taken notice. They are now shadowing Dak – especially when the Cowboys go 11 personnel and spread out the defense. Opponents are essentially daring Dak to beat them outside through the air. How’s it working?


Dak has thrown for 24 TDs outside the red zone since 2018, the second highest in the league.

https://www.fantasyguru.com/cowboys-dak-prescott-gets-job-done-outside-red-zone/

Basically, Dak takes advantage of the man coverage on the outside that is a result of the runner by game. Teams basically dare Dak to beat them with their arm and are more than content with giving him the looks in the 20s even with all the speed on the outside.

https://sportdfw.com/2018/10/24/dallas-cowboys-zone-coverage-is-daks-kryptonite/

Dak is really a product of Cooper and the looks he gets.

Much of Cooper’s impact this season has been against a man defense. Since Cooper’s first game with Dallas in week nine he ranks first against man defenses in yards (432), yards after the catch (209), touchdowns (6) and has put up a 139 receiver rating.

Having Cooper as a weapon against man defenses has improved the entire offense, as Prescott’s game has been elevated to new heights against man defenses, including a 48-point jump in IQR.

So many drives seemed to be our own 10 or something long. And the missed FGs. Grrrr.

Aye @rocyaice remember when what's his name was saying Dak was "bad" in the redzone lol



So Adam’s excuse is Dak has less 1-2 yard TD chances and more THREE yards to go TDs? Clue.. Dak is still awful from TEN yards out. He was an awful 47%

Also, most of those non-passes are replaced by Dak’s LEGS, but that isn’t mentioned by Adam as one of the reasons why the run rate is higher since 2016.

And it also demonstrates how much Dak has an advantage, because of the RG.

Brett Maher was ranked 14th in FGs, meaning top half of the league. Plenty of kickers actually struggled worse than Maher and Maher has two of the longest FGs in the last two years, one a 62 yarder and one a sixty three.

If you talk 50 plus, Maher scored the third most and was 4 for 8. So Dallas often attempted FGs that weren’t even close, because of his leg and that was in 13 games. Maher was average. This idea Dallas faced some unique experience is a joke.

The Patriots went out and signed Nick Folk mid-season.

And yet he didn't get cut or hold out?

No, not at all

I thought every Cowboys fan was aware that Romo was injured all of 2016 and retired right after. Never cut

He also never held out in his career.

.......alas he also never made the NFC Championship game. Just facts

Also it doesnt demonstrate his advantage at RG at all, you completely pulled that out of your *** lmao

To be honest, the kid was a bad$$$ in high school but he's shorter than I am, which is 6ft. He's about 5'10, I stood right next to him at one of his games.

Want to talk about awful in the redzone?



Gurley- 29 TDS all 29 in redzone
McCaff- 22 TDs 18 redzone TDs
Zeke- 18 TDs 16 redzone TDs
Henry- 28 TDs 23 redzone TDs

Now this is an area where you gain "dirty yards".
