Most of his rabid defenders, are the same ones that used to blame Romo. When Dak was completely blowing, they started leveraging the valid excuses Romo had, for their QB, when none of the excuses are applicable. I’ve been on this forum for over 15 years plus and the majority of its members were rabid defenders of Jason Garrett and his ‘play calling’, but when it comes to Dak, suddenly Garrett, who was banished from play calling completely bu Jerry in 2014, is the reason for Dak’s lack of success. I was bashing Garrett for years, among a select few, while ad nauseum, he was declared on this forum as the next Tom Landry. Romo wasn’t even allowed in game planning meetings by Garrett until he had the opportunity to force it when he got his new contract on 2013, which is what Jerry Jones meant when he said “Peyton-like” responsibilities.
I’m not going to get into how these Dak-stand are flat out making things up as the years go by, but what is clear is, when this team finally had a roster and Garrett out the way in the offense in the short SB window, we wasted it, instead of giving the one who had that right, to lead this football, to train this QB, who in year 3, literally took a week to throw a TD in training camp, and I’m not making this up. They have given every opportunity for Dak to learn and grow, including playing on ‘meaningless’ games even when they say guys like Zeke and Smith to end the season. The Dak-stabs gave bashed Jerry at every corner and guys like Zeke and Amari, as well as the defense, while Romo was bashed for guys like Garrett and Julius Jones and a bunch of journeymen OL who weren’t even considered on the map until they played with Romo.
I mean the lengths these Dak-stans go to try and mention Dak in the same category as Romo now, suddenly making Romo a victim too, just to prop up their boy Dak is a joke. Teams defender Romo with deep cover 2 constantly while Jason Garrett has zero clue how to field a RG. We were bottom of the barrel in play action and we had to go shotgun and hurry up in the second half abandoning Garrett’s game plan because of consistent 3 and outs. Our RG was revamped because we lucked into Callahan and by the time we had all-pro linemen at 3 of our 5 spots at OL, we went with Checkdown Charlie, who took three years to see he had man coverage on the outside with Amari, while teams kept an extra man in the box for Zeke constantly.
It’s a joke listening to these guys make Dak a victim for years, even leveraging what Romo went through, when the scenarios are exactly the opposite. Romo carried trash, Dak is getting carried by a an offense loaded by talent period.
Herbert was throwing bombs against cover-2 and was getting pressured all day long. One TD got called back, another the WR slipped leading to the INT. Dak couldn’t break 200 yards against zone except for a 48 yarder off a dump off to CeeDee Lamb to end the half. And Dak had the RG to consistently move the chains while SD didn’t even bother to run. SD is basically unleashing Herbert as soon as he started his career. To sit there with a straight face and say Dak is in anyway on his level is comical.
Everybody is a sacrificial lamb at the altar of Dak to the Dakstans and it’s a joke.
