Has nothing to do with any claims of Dak hate or anti-Dakvibes.
The fact is that every team that believes that their QB is franchise Caliber has a long- term deal attached to that player.
Excluding rooks.
Now if you want to mud the waters with Dak hate words fine but the above reality is confirmed from Rodgers to Ryan to Wilson,etc etc....
The only one of the two of us who mentioned the word hate (and twice in fact) is you alone.

My opinion stands on the topic of franchise quarterback, as does yours.

Jerry just spoke on 105 the fan and basically stated that offense struggled even when Dak was starting and they only moved the ball more because teams defense allowed them to.


This owner will die without another ring. Dak & Will McClay to Atlanta is 99% guaranteed.



Why do people listen to Jerry Dumbo GM Jones, when you have 25 years of the same talk and the same results?

The Cowboys are so easy to stop, it leads to QB stats. The opponents go into the game to stop Elliott so Dak will get passing stats, and when you have turnovers and the Cowboys are down 14 points, you are not going to start gambling on defense to change a defensive game plan that is working.

Jimmy Johnson, Tom Landy, and Bill Parcells would never abandon the run so quickly as Jerry's puppet head coaches.

Why am I even responding to this stupidity.....OUT.

I seem to remember you asking for 1 game. I can give you more. And in that game. As I am told here. Stats don't matter. What i do remember is a clutch run to win us the game.
I'll give you that. More often than not Dak has proven to have the clutch gene from day 1. I just don't consider that carrying a team, and would only use that phrase with a handful of active QBs. If Dak could really put this team on his back we would have been 8-8 last year, 2-4 this year.

The Cowboys thrived when Dak didn't have to be superman like he does now. Obviously the overall talent level on this team has dropped since 2016, but so have the Ws. Daks numbers have improved drastically as he enters his prime years, but the results have gotten worse. It's been very Tony Romo or Matt Stafford esque. All are a lot of fun to watch at the end of games, but none have consistently won in this league. I think it makes for a fair debate about signing QBs to long term high dollar deals.

Carrying the team is a misused myth. And if you need one of 53 to "carry" the rest, you suck anyway.

They mean something because for years you said he couldnt put up those stats. Now that he does they dont matter. Its amazing you have any room left to move the goalposts.

Also I like how you ignored the fact i called you out for not liking Dak for reasons that have nothing to do with football. And that if he won Superbowl MVP you would make up excuses and still not give him credit.

When he wins games. Its the team. When he loses. Its on him.


I’m not blaming Dak for losses. He goes as the team goes. I like Dak.

My problem with Dak is we can’t build a good enough team to win a championship while paying him like he is elite.

He's never been paid "elite" money.

Youre problem with Dak is that you think he caused Dez to be cut.

The first "cracks' are starting to appear on the Dak-Mafia wall.
By the Spring the wall will be totally demolished!!


LOL i listened to this interview live...started laughing when he said "the defense was letting us move the ball" I knew it would be so fun to watch you and your crew now dawn JJ as the voice of truth......its ok puppy just make sure you back him when he says the truth about who our QB is...like he has said 1k times...

Not really but Dak doesn’t throw guys open so that did hurt a player like Dez.

Dak is a see guy open and then throw type of QB.
So when he threaded the needle to Amari between 2 defenders he didnt throw him open? You guys are funny. I should go get the stats of tight window throws and how much Dak has improved on those. Never going to be good enough for you guys though.

Listen.. When you throw as many times as Dak has you'll always have that 1 time he anticipated a throw. I'm heavily generalizing how he plays because he is safe by nature as a QB.

The Cowboys weren't easy to stop. They were moving the ball and only the turnovers were stopping them.

And that's what Jerry was saying. Contrary to what the OP would have you believe, Jerry wasn't disparaging Dak, nor was he disparaging the offense on any count other than the turnovers. He specifically said that when Dak was playing there was nothing wrong with what the offense was doing except the turnovers.

For as many excuses as we give Dak for being a victim in the Cowboys organization, and led by Jason Garrett, we are going to turn around and blast Dalton for not winning last year with the Cincinnati Bengals?
I'm not blasting him for not winning. I'm blasting him for looking like crap because Burrow has that same bad team and it doesn't nearly as bad.
