Good question. The comment you quoted....was not really meant to technically assess this season so far. But the truth of it...is clear....don't you think?
I watched tampa get dominated in the 1st qtr and most of the 2nd. I then watched them assert their will and just plain make plays to win in the 2nd half. The opposite of what we did last week.
I'm reluctant to compare to other teams. We aren't them.
I think we have not done well to assert our will regardless of missing players. The missed pass to Noah, which h dak apologists are sick of me bringing up (I get why they don't want to talk of it), is telltale sign.
I'm still in. I hope we can get the "reinforcements" back and finish up strong. There isn't much time...we are leaking our season away. Plug it up and sail on!


I get it, and missed throws happen for sure, and when teams lose the QB has to come into question. I do think we have the most missed games by any team with a winning record. Dont get me wrong I expect them to step up also.but we are well over 30 games missed by starters while every other winning team is well below 20. I think they will get back and when they do it will al be ok. We are 2 games back of the #1 seed things change fast in the NFL and I expect them to keep changing. And there is no haters or apologists as Ive said before, there is only what happend and how its taken. For instance one could say Dak had a bad game against the Raiders, or he could say Dak threw us back into a game that the defense gave up 500 yards and 33 points without his #1 and #2 WR...which one is wrong?

Yep, we sure are. Not playing like it lately but 3rd best record.
3rd best in the early days of the season.
In the last 4 weeks....heading into the meat....are we still the 3rd best team?
We seem to be losing our ground....like quicksand...while tampa , new England, and green bay are forging onward

I mean look at the teams that are 1-2 or 2-2 over the last 3 or 4 games...

To answer your question....I am once again going to have to evoke Romo. He too....threw us back in the game time after time. Until he failed and we crucified him.
Dak still has a chance to make it right. I kinda think he's on that cusp too. He needs to gather this team on his shoulders....can he?

Dak threw for 375 yards, 2 TDs, and had zero turnovers, without his top 2 receivers. Meanwhile, the defense gave up 500+ yards and 36 points.

It's obvious to anyone with a rational thought which one is wrong.

And youd be right about Romo...Im a fan as you know..Romo was not the problem at all, man gave everything he had for this team. I wish they had a coach who could be on his level when he played.

He had 2 chances to go down and win the game.

So how did the Cowboys comeback from deficits of 30-22 with 8 minutes to play and 33-30 with 2:54 to play to force overtime? Or were those not pressure situations for Dak???

Nope just anything bad...again think of what they are saying... tell me the scenario... The Cowboys are going to give up 500 yards and over a hundred yards in defensive penalties aand 36 points....They will also be missing WR #1 and WR #2. What's your prediction? Is it the offense will bring them back, force OT and lose by 3?

What happened in overtime, didn't the Cowboys win the coin toss??

Here is the thing Dak, for the Cowboys to have "bandwagons", we would have to be winning, but we can't because you are our QB. We are a better version of the Lions but that is it. No QB does less with more than you.
:clap:

After the Dallas Cowboys’ disappointing loss to the Las Vegas Raiders, Dak Prescott threw a bit of shade at “bandwagon” fans. Prescott addressed the idea twice during his post game media session, admitting that “a bunch of people are jumping off the bandwagon.”

I’m 57 years old, I’ve been a fan since I was 5 years old and have been through the golden day’s Roger and the 70’s early 80’s, the God awful teams through the rest of the 80’s, the Triplets & the resurrection in the 90’s and then THERE IS THE LAST 21 YEARS!! The Cowboys are the most liked team in America and we are also the most hated, its always been this and it always will! So Dak, what are you talking about? We only care about ONE thing, win a damn Super Bowl! This team is talented enough in a water downed NFC to win the whole thing but Dak, as the leader has to be the one to lead this team to the promised land! Worry about football, play better than you have 2 of the last 3 weeks and for God’s sake, quit worrying about social media or any other B.S. Just win!!!

And you guys are enjoying the losing, just to prove your point....lol!! Keep laughing at our loss and then disappear when we win.....great fans!

Hey, mushroom head, don't take it personally. When we win its good. When we don't we complain. Its no Royal Crowne pomade off yer head if fans complain.

And it's not mine or anybody else's problem that you live and die as a cheerleader with puffy pompons and cry all week when your man Dak leads us to another loss.
Blimey! Be a man and quit yer crying.

Did you get the facial-hair edger? Amazon will deliver. Great gift for that man or woman.
