It's a shame Dak Prescott played less than 1/3 of a year. He still has more touchdown passes than Cam Newton, who's played the entire year. Patriots fans made me aware of this fact.
If you think we were putting up a crazy offensive rout before Dak got injured, think how amazing we can be next year when Gallup and Lamb gets better. Gallup and Lamb are not Julio Jones yet. But Julio Jones wasn't Julio Jones until his 4th year.... a year that Gallup and Lamb haven't even reached yet. Lamb recorded his only two 100 yard games when Dak was playing. Cooper had as many 100 yard games with Dak in 5 games than he did with Dalton who's played in twice as many games.
Case in point... Atlanta Falcons. When they signed Matt Ryan following their great run in 2012.... they went 4-12, 6-10, and 8-8 the next 3 years. But in 2016, their offense finally reached their full potential and went to the Super Bowl.
2021 could be our Atlanta Falcons 2016 year. I know what people are gonna say: "that's just optimistic thinking. They say that every single year" But the only shot we have of even obtaining that type of optimistic thinking is by signing Dak Prescott. Without Dak Prescott, there's not a shred of chance of even having that type of optimism, however pessimistic the extent of your viewpoint is. The next guy simply cannot put up the kind of offense Dak can like we saw.
He was lighting it up in his 5 games here. Only the Rams were able to keep him down, but they have a top defense it's no wonder they held him to only 3 points in the 2nd half. Look what they did to Russell Wilson last Saturday... they made him look like Tim Tebow. Dak played the big boy portion of our schedule.... that's why he went 2-3. He didn't play the guys Andy Dalton did..... that is 1 team with a winning record.
Our offense will leave history in the dust next year!
