I'm a homer but I was very disappointed in MM, Dak, Zeke, OL and Quinn

[TheMarathonContinues]

Very disappointed in MM, Dak, Zeke, OL and Quinn.....
MM is trying to hard to not be Garrett.....Quinn is trying to hard not to be Quinn.....Dak played well, but missed some easy ones, Zeke should have taken the day off....he's not healthy...OL is decent, but Philbin has been reading the CZ...I haven't gotten too emotionally involved in games for a while, try to take it in stride and stay positive....yesterday was different....I was pissed! Still am.....we should have won that game. I don't complain about the refs much, but they were horrible! Salud!

I'm with you....except I'd add the corners ESPECIALLY AB.

I am torn about this team, given the recent 1-3 performance....very disappointing.....yesterday should have been an ugly win. I take ugly wins. but it ended as an ugly loss. refs and 250+ yards of penalties played a big part. the ref's should be invisible in the game, but they became the most prominent figure....I was angry at brown, but man some of the interference calls were very controversial.....

Here’s the thing. You’re right to a degree, but you can’t dismiss his brilliant 4th quarter so easily.

I was also disappointed in Dak’s play during the first 3 quarters (and later VERY disappointed in OT). But he turned it on late and helped get us into OT.

Overall, I give him a C- for the game. The miss to Noah Brown in OT was just killer and the opposite of clutch. Which is a shame since he was very clutch in the 4th quarter.

Cooper would have caught that ball....so would most starters in this league....I guess now I know why Brown isn't a starter

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

We...don't. Maybe that will change with Gregory and Tank back.

Yeah the defense sucks and they have guys out so there is some hope there.

 

[CATCH17]

Haters with an agenda are hilarious!

Oh yeah.. I’m such a hater.. I spent the last 2 months with both Pom poms in hand telling everyone how awesome Dak was.

Just because I’m not a super homer fan and will praise a player when they are good and call them out when they are underperforming doesn’t mean I’m a hater with an agenda.


You know what my agenda is? It’s not Dak or any individual on this team. It’s winning a freaking Super Bowl and winning a freaking Super Bowl isn’t going to happen with a 40 million dollar player playing like he is Jameis Winston or Kirk Cousins.

Yeah Dak is getting heat for that pass but that's a catchable football. It was a easy throw and I think if you give Dak another shot at it he'd throw it better but surely Noah is capable of catching that.

Now see you say you aren't a hater but you end your sentence with he's playing like Winston and Kirk Cousins......

I must say, if the officiating wasnt so atrocious yesterday, how different of a conversation are we having today? Let me count out 3 massive calls/no calls that changed momentum. 1. The Waller play. I still think it was a fumble, and I thought it was dirty that NY intervened when they did preventing Mike from being able to challenge. That would've set us up at the 40 instead of the 5. 2. The hold on the 20 yard run by Pollard. Even the commentators were saying the hold wasn't there or was weak at best. 3. The non-DPIs in the 4th quarter on our last regulation drive. On 2nd and 3rd down, Dak threw perfect passes that would've been caught if the WRs weren't so egregiously interfered with. If any of those are called properly, I think we are talking about a gritty win.

He threw the ball way behind him.

You act like Cooper is some sure handed WR that is guaranteed to catch a terribly thrown ball.


That was on Dak! Duh! Give your receiver a somewhat catchable ball and don’t throw behind him with everyone rolling right.

 

[DuncanIso]

I respect that. I do agree about Zeke. We needed a running game and if Zeke had sat, Pollard may have been able to tee off on them given the opportunities he'd have gotten.

only 19 rushes between Zeke and Pollard.

None of the RBs had a good day.

You’re right, he probably would have. Cooper’s a stud.

But it was still a bad throw that would’ve required a great catch. It was a short throw that should’ve been an easy pitch and catch.

I’m a huge Dak fan and I expect better from him than that.

 

[JustChip]

Refs should never be the story of any game.

Bingo. But they always are. As much as the players. It’s obvious the NFL wants that, otherwise it would change.

 

[CATCH17]

He is!

We’ve lost 3 of 4 games and he has been terrible or average in these games.


*** are some of you super fans even watching.

This is what you expect from a 40 million dollar player?

 

[jwooten15]

So glad to see a post like this from you! I totally agree. Yesterday was such a winnable game and the Cowboys just kept shooting themselves in the foot. Yesterday looked like a replay of the last 25 years in some respects — sloppy and inconsistent play that leads to a loss.

 

[Vtwin]

Average QBs have won Superbowls with good defenses......but I get it....haters gotta hate.

Were they getting paid as elite QB's, though?

Coopers not a great catch guy with a huge catch radius.. Coopers entire game is getting separation.

I have 0 confidence he catches that poorly thrown ball. Blaming Noah Brown for that is par for the excuse making Dak Prescott course. It’s always someone else’s fault.

We chose Dak over the someone else’s. This is Dak’s team and the someone else’s will go as he goes.

If we’re going to win a championship he needs to step up and the someone else’s will come along for the ride just like they did pre-Denver.

 

[Bullflop]

Shame on me, but . . . after that game, I'd laugh if Jerry's boat sunk!!

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

Here y'all go with this pocket watching I don't gauge him on what he gets paid.

Dak overall was fine yesterday. You can be overly critical if you want but if the guy puts up 400 passing yards and 2 Touchdowns that should be good enough to win.

Now the Bronco's and Chiefs games? I agree with you 100%.

But its funny his salary gets brought up. He's 40 million but let's pocket watch the other players on this team. Amari Cooper, Lawrence, Collins are WELL OVER 40 million and they haven't a contributed a damn thing these past two weeks. Let's keep the same energy.

 

[Aven8]

Well at least we got to see history. 14 for 176 is a new record beating the old record from 1970…….

I think Cooper’s hands are better than you do, but either way, I agree that it was a terrible throw.
