No, my expectation is that Dak stans will cry about how it's everybody's else's fault but the glorious Dak, who kept giving the ball right back to the opposing offense when our drives relied on his 'magical arm' that only 'performs' when in garbage time.

My expectation is Dak-stans will hype up yardage against our "bend-dont-break" defense that held the Rams to two field goals, despite all this rushing, while Dak kept floundering around giving the ball right back to the Rams, not chewing up any clock, and allowig our bend-don't-break defense, which we all know is the philosophy, to wear down over time..

Every time with Dak it's "if we just could get it one more time", meaning after the opposing defense goes soft, burns out the clocks, lets Dak pile up meaningless yardage only to lose, over and over and over again, like he did against the Rams, Jets, Bills, Bears, Seattle, Cleveland, unless your Atlanta, ad you decide to not even fall on an onside kick.
and I could say, the exact same thing about dak haters like you, where everything is squarely his fault and nobody else, including how he is responsible for the good of the team (yes, one your brethren's said that)...

and I never excused him of everything. I never gave him credit for everything. and I never blamed him for everything. which is excactly the opposite of what you do. everything is his fault. wins and losses are on him (except you have given credit to even Garrett and Linehan for wins, but not Dak, yet squarely put all the losses on Dak)...

and in the first 5 games this year Dak has 4 interceptions. 2, in the last few seconds of games in desparate Hail Mary's...you know what they are...
Tom brady threw a couple of pick sixes in a couple of games this year. yet the team won the game? why? because their defense got the ball right back and made a stop.

and I have asked you this over and over and you keep dancing around it, not answering and spinning....when you are within a score with 3 minutes to go. is that considered garbage time? are the points in the first 3 quarters worth more and weighted more than the 4th quarter?

what we saw, with our own eyes this year, as it unfolded in front of us, was with Dak we scored in mid 30's....were in every game within the last 3 minutes and the defense giving up 200,300 yards rushing in two games and 36+ points, at the time on historic NFL worst levels...then we saw Andy take over the same offense and struggle and only score in garbage time....yet you tied your feet to Andy Dalton Anvil, jumped in both feet into the Mississippi river and now crying foul.....

and now you are excusing the defense from any culpability against the Rams...like I just said above...if we won that game, you would have given credit to everyone except Dak....yet the defense gave up 250 yards rushing. gave up two rushing TDs in the first half. gave up a 35 yard TD run to Gurley....your bend but don't break defense, BROKE mightily...or should Dak have played DT and stopped the run too!?

and Dak has had the highest number of comeback wins in his young career, than any other QB in the same period...there is no give up with him.

you spin. spin. spin....

and I asked you this question and you have avoided for the past month....How many Superbowls would Brady win with Garrett and Linehan as his coaches? show some balls. stop spinning. answer the questions.

p.s.

I assume Zeke fumbles are Dak's fault to...I guess just the way he handed the ball to him was 1 inch too high and Zeke didn't have the right handle, so he fumbled it....including on a 4th down conversion play against NO to get in position for a field goal to win the game...its also Dak's fault that Maher didn't make 10 straight field goals from the 40....and cost 2 games..Dak should have demanded to be the holder or at least kick it himself and win the game. it was his fault.

so Dak and Garrett and Moore couldn't devise a plan to beat a Bilicheck team and defense, in New England....wow, I wonder if anybody else ever failed at that in new england against the patriots. I bet the list is very short (sarcasm fully intended).....let not forget the bogus call against the offense on that last drive.
Ok, his last full season disappointing and disappears against the
Saints
Packers
Jets
Eagles
Vikings
New England
Buffalo
Chicago

half of fhose games he couldn’t put a drive together to save his life and the other half he had his usual garbage second half padded stats

Yep.. but you can pay a QB if he can elevate those around him allowing you to build a defense.

Perhaps it’s time to put up or shut up with the Dak debate. Let’s pay him and see what he can do without an All Pro OL, top 5 paid RB and WR while building and investing in a top defense.

But neglecting our defense while feeling the need to invest in surrounding a QB you’re paying top money isn’t sound team building in Cap era. Time to sink or swim with Dak. Can we trust our dysfunctional organization to let that happen and focus on defense?

I think we've already seen that. But hey, end of day, Jerry decides to pay who he pays, or not. We decide to spend money on the product and watch football games, or not.

I am referencing Garrett and Moore...with that said.

Saints: Cobb dropped a TD in the end zone...I guess that's Dak's fault. score is 12-10, Witten catches the ball, runs with it and then fumbles it away.....Zeke Fumbles the ball on a 4th down conversion. Cooper drops a ball on a crucial 3rd down when the ball hits him in the hand....in a 12-10 game, you can't make mistakes like we did. turn the ball over 2 times....

Vikings: we had been passing the ball all day with ease. on that next to last drive, going in for a go ahead score. we passed the ball all the way down inside the redzone. Moore decides to call run plays...even though we had only 45 yards of rushing all day, running against an 8 man front. then calls two pass plays to Zeke.....lets not forget he told Austin not to return the ball on the kick, when he had noone in front of him for 15 yards....to at least give the team a chance.

two games we could have easily won.

against the jets, the offense was out of sorts.....the defense was out of sorts, giving up big play after big play to the last ranked Jets....but if you want to blame the offense. OK.....but I expect the defense to win a game now and then when offense isn't clicking.

New England, Garrett and Moore got out coached by Bilicheck. not sure what to think of that one and I am surprised you expect Dak to outsmart Bilicheck and Brady, two of the greatest....

seemingly you are putting it squarely on Dak being able to devise a game plan, in the middle of the game, call plays, change plays to over come incompetence of his head coach, OC. Lets not forget in some close games (I will search it up and tell you), the offense was in position to kick fields goals and take leads and Maher kept missing kicks and Garrett refused to replace him, until it was too late.

I said it in the beginign of last year that the team was headed for a 7-9 to 9-7 season. given Moore who I never wanted as OC, to be the OC and Garrett and rest of coaching staff on a one year deal, with a superbowl or your get fired hanging over their head....the team, defense started to fall apart mid season, when coaches were yelling at each other on the side line and lets not forget Dak snubbing his head coach during a game after he came to the sideline for stupid calls he made.

but yeah, lets blame it all on Dak...he has to over come Jerry the GM too in the process. I blame him for not being able to tame jerry and knock some sense in him....

which defensive player would you sign in FA?

I find it funny, you have no plan, your plan is "but I don't want to sign Dak, but I have no other idea but I just know I dont' want to sign Dak"...that's your plan!!! awsome

I don’t think we saw enough of it to convince everyone.

We didn’t have to pay Dak in recent years and it didn’t help this dysfunctional organization build a better defense.

Saving money on paying Dak only helps if we have an organization that knows what to do with it. Lol

Most likely our Football Idiots are better off with an over paid QB which will keep them “ relevant and interesting”:)

We could see it for multiple seasons and there would still be fans out there who never would see it. But we do know that Dak needs talent around him and that's not a slide on him. Every QB needs talent around them. Some are able to do it with less talent around them because they are just that good. Some need more then others, there skills may necessitate that. I think Dak is one of those guys but it doesn't matter. We are going to see it again IMO. If it were up to me, we wouldn't but it's not up to me so I firmly believe that we probably will. It's going to be another Tony Romo 8 year run IMO.

Well, super stats prescott is a nice guy. He just needs all-world players around him to carry him. Even one leg Alex Smith can drive a bus better with average guys.

Once again it's everyone else's fault but Godly Dak....he is sooooo perfect.

Zeke VS.

Saints 18 Carries 35 Yards 1.9 YPC 1 TD
Packers 12 Carries 62 Yards 5.2 YPC 1 TD
Jets 28 Carries 105 Yards 3.8 YPC 1 TD
Eagles 13 Carries 47 Yards 3.6 YPC
Vikings 20 Carries 47 Yards 2.4 YPC
NE 21 Carries 86 Yards 4.1 YPC
Buff 12 Carries 71 Yards 5.9 YPC
Chicago 19 Carries 81 Yards 4.3 YPC 2 TD's


So in most of the games, Zeke did his part....how about Dak??????

I’m not sure it matters. I don’t believe this dysfunctional organization could build a championship team around Mahomes or any of the greats this era assuming they could even stumble onto a talent as such.

It is what it is . Remember “ relative and interesting” is the Bar.
