3 seasons you say that Zeke carried the Cowboys?

1. 2016....Dak won rookie of the year over Zeke.
2. 2017....Zeke single handily ruined the season by getting suspended for 6 games. Cowboys went 9-7 and missed the playoffs by 1 game.
3. 2018....Cowboys were 3-7 the first 8 games until Cooper was traded for. Dak and the passing game led the Cowboys to a 7-1 record in the 2nd half of the season to make the playoffs at 10-6.

Overall, Dak Prescott led the NFL in final drive comeback wins the first 3 years in the NFL. The same first 3 years you claim, Zeke the drunk carried the team.

In other words, he not only carried the team in crunch time, but beat Zeke in Rookie of the year honors in his best season as a RB.

Nice try troll.............another laughable comment gets smacked down!!!! :lmao2::clap::flagwave::yourock:
1. 2016....Dak won rookie of the year over Zeke.
Everyone knew Zeke should of received ROY but the great job Dak did driving the bus on Zeke's back gave the QB as usual the award in a QB league.
2. 2017....Zeke single handily ruined the season by getting suspended for 6 games. Cowboys went 9-7 and missed the playoffs by 1 game.
So Dak is the guy that carries the team but because Zeke is out 6 games it is Zekes fault Dak sucked so bad and the Dak led team failed to make the play offs and the Dak led team couldn't win games with out Zeke, talk about stupid reasoning , this one proves how little you know about football. Thanks for confirming how Zeke was more valuable to the team as without him Dak failed to carry the team
3. 2018....Cowboys were 3-7 the first 8 games until Cooper was traded for. Dak and the passing game led the Cowboys to a 7-1 record in the 2nd half of the season to make the playoffs at 10-6.
Again Zeke held up his end but old Dak couldn't hit the a barn and needed yet another high end player and take more resources to prop up his poor play. so it appears in your own assessment that Zeke and Cooper are the players that carry the team and as a side note these are the players that got paid first. Thanks for confirming what anyone with a brain knows Dak gets carried and is a very good bus driver.
You are Living in the fantasy past, 1 play off win in 5 seasons, lots of soft garbage stats, has 1 comeback in 2 1/2 seasons and that one was on a miracle onside that keep mighty Dak from being 1-4, . So by your warped twisted reasoning you should blame Dak for the 2020 season failure because he missed 11 games. You are a truly pathetic Dak homer fan boy.
Thanks again for confirming how Zeke carries the team and Dak does a very good job driving the bus, it refreshing that a Dak homer troll can see the light to what Dak is.

This is a new twist...a thread about a former coach morphs into a Zeke versus Dak thread.

Joined Dallas in 2013.

He went 0-16 as Lions HC in 2008.

Tampa Bay won the Super Bowl in 2003 and Marinelli wasn't even the Defensive Coordinator.

He's washed.

Let's all just be glad Marinelli is behind us and hope that Quinn can help resurrect some defense in these here parts.

Taco over TJ Watt will never be lived down. Embarrassing and most everyone knew it was a mistake .

Yes I heard that, how true I don't know . Recall hearing they took fit. Most analyst felt Watt was an OLB in 3-4
Frustrating. Accumulate talent, then worry about the rest. Stick to the board has merits

I thought Ramsey was a safety? Yeah I never like the Hill pick and believe safety should've been the pick. In regards to Watt across the board they thought Watt was a 34 guy. We pick Taco due to the fact he was the better fit. But must note the scouts and Mclay thought Watt was the better player.

Yes, let's hope the same mistakes aren't made again. Draft the best available and make sure they can play in ANY scheme (not just Quinns)

....sometimes I really think they should, outsource these decisions to couple of other opinions. I'm very surprised Jerry for being business minded, does not do that.

I heard Babe Laufenberg speak on this as well. Basically was saying Maranelli got scapegoated for the Taco pick......but he wasn't the only voice and wasn't the loudest either. He didn't go into who actually was though. I figured it was either Jerry or someone else.
Pizza boy face was probably the deciding vote. :muttley:
