Real

Excuses excuses they never stop, just say Dak choked, the truth is always the best view. So Dak needs elite talent at all offensive position and a top 3 D that gets 40 to 50 turnovers, what excuse will you have when chokes again, a hangnail. Keep the humorous posts coming we all enjoy the laughs.
no, he just needs a defense that's not all time worst...let that sink in....

We had the worst special-teams in the entire league. Started every drive on our side of the field. Most inside are 30

How did special teams contribute to that? Poor punt returns? Poor kick returns?

Cowboys have maybe 2 punt returns per game, and most kickoffs sail way deep into the end zone, or even out of it.
Then Why did the Cowboys continue to play him?

Because Romo sat out most of the year, too rusty to play was the reason, the one given at least...

Really? That's ALL he needs?

Dak has still not lead the Cowboys to the playoffs in a season where his RB didn't win the rushing title.

We need game manager Dak back if we really want to be a serious threat to anybody.

I tend to agree with Jimmy Johnson when he said "I think he can win you a championship if he has great players around him. I don't think Dak can carry a football team if he doesn't have great players around him". I believe he would know better then any of us.

Its not what Dak needs, its what the Cowboys need.

Great QB.............CHECK!

Defense.............big need
Coaching...........was a huge need, we shall see
Skill position players.............CHECK!
Oline...................CHECK! depending on the year.
Special teams...............Probably a CHECK!

Most issues are on the defensive side of the ball.

Mahomes, Brady, Aikman, ect.....ect....................were all surrounded by incredible talent and coaching.

Look what happened to Mahomes when he lost 2 lineman? Couldnt even score a TD on the biggest stage.

You QB challenged naive types just dont understand the game of football. Aikman couldnt even win a game without Emmitt. Aikman was one of the best bus drivers we have ever seen.

Are you saying what Jimmy Johnson said is not true? Are you saying Jimmy Johnson is QB challenged and doesn't understand the game of football?

I think I am pretty clear. Its YOU that are QB challenged.

I didnt even mention Johnson. Trying to change the narrative?

So now you're taking jabs at Aikman for knowing his role and doing his job? Kiss the rings.

Do you think that somehow makes Dak look better when you hate on everybody except him? It doesn't. It only shows the weird lengths you'll go, even as low as hating on legends and winners of the organization, to try and put your hero over.

I bet you have Dak bed sheets don't you?

If we were to do a little compare and contrast as to what Dak/Romo has and what Aikman had, who do you think would come out with more?

Aikman drove the bus and was one of the best we have ever seen at it. You can turn this into a Dak infatuation thread if you want.

Aikman drove the bus because its all he had to do. The players and coaches around him were so talented, he just had to drive it.

Im quite sure a QB challenged troll like you is completely incapable of making that distinction. No doubt you think Aikman did it all by himself.

Aikman averaged about 220 yards and 1.5 TD's per game. Did Aikman need everything perfect around him troll?

Poor guy, you just cant get out of your own way.

Aikman did similar with Emmitt. I guess Aikman sucks...but we digress

Why are you down playing a 3 time Super Bowl champion and Hall of Famer just to try and put other guys over?

And you call yourself a fan. You're a Dak fan, not a Cowboys fan.

that's the point he is blind too. all these great QBs had great talent around them. they didn't do it alone. the one great QB who hasn't been able to do it is Rodgers and he doesn't have all the great talent around him and he continuously falls short. he won't be satisfied until Dak, has a bunch of 7th round and UDFA at RB, WR and OL and we have the 32nd rank defense and win a championship and even then he will spin it somehow..its to a point it seems that its personal.

Aikman knew his role. He was a leader and didn't care to get up in faces. He didn't care about his numbers. He did what we needed to win games. The proof is in the rings.

Dak wants to be the star, highest paid, prettiest numbers, and everybody's buddy. Dak has the Garrett mentality. Dak has the "we'll get em next time" mentality. It's weak.

oh jimmy understands.... he understood what it takes to win championships. that's why he surronded Aikman with Emmitt, great WRs, great OL and had #1 defense for several years.... so Aikman sucked...I guess

but we digress

Jimmy Johnson: "I think he can win you a championship if he has great players around him. I don't think Dak can carry a football team if he doesn't have great players around him".

What did he say that's wrong?
the subsequent question to Jimmy would be

"how many QBs can carry a team without great players around them?"

So you agree with what Jimmy said? That Dak can't carry a team without GREAT talent around him, not good, not average, but literally GREAT talent?

so now you are claiming you know personalities and people and how they acted and thought and how their teammates percieved them.

that's totally new..

you got proven wrong, again....and again.. and now you are spinning it into something totally different.

you failed.

I didn't say I agree. I just posted some facts. you got your shorts tied in a knot and threw a hissy fit.

all I said, Aikman was surronded by great talent. he is a HOFer
