Imagine leading this team to 1 measly Wild Card win in 6 years and still having the nerve to think people have hopped on or off a bandwagon.

No, Dak, a few fake fans have crowed you already without doing anything, why? I have no idea, maybe they think you're dreamy or something, but the real fans of the Dallas Cowboys team expect you to be better. We expect success. If you don't deliver. If you shrink in big moment. If you buckle under the pressure. If you don't lead us to wins in meaningful games against good competition. If you don't lead us to playoff success. Then you best believe you're going to be criticized for it.

We aren't settling for pretty stats. We aren't settling for mediocre. The real fans of the Dallas Cowboys expect success.

Apparently some of the younger generations just measure success in Money and Celebrity status....high on style, low on substance or meaningful accomplishments

It's the participation trophy mindset. Also, don't get it twisted, a lot of the older fans have adopted this mentality also.

again, well said. It just shows either 1 of 2 things. Dak is smug and thinks HE knows more than we fans do as far as the lack of playff history over the last 25 years, OR he just is ignorant and he REALLY believes what he says. The fans are pretty educated pertaining 2 this teams recent history. He's not giving the fans the benefit of the doubt here. Maybe he lives in a bubble or echo chamber. Winning cures all.

Did you read his words? The headline is misleading. He didn't call out fans - no animosity was expressed, or even disappointment or blame - he merely indicated fan interest can be dependent on how the team is playing. Seems to me he got that pretty right.

This is quite typical. Some read/hear/see what they want. 40 pages later, some are still parroting the wrong message.

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.”

So its the fans fault the Cowboys lost 3 of 4? Someone needs to remind him many of us fans have been waiting 26 years for another chance at a Super Bowl. We are clinging to the band wagon like it is the only solid ground between us and the gates of Hades. He has to forgive up if we begin to doubt the team. Winning only 1 of 4 will have that effect. Instead of blaming us for the team letting us down, and he has been a good part of that, maybe he needs to focus on the real problem for why Dallas cannot beat a team better than the Falcons.

I hope we hit on the next 3 drafts with some more superstars like Micah. . . or its 3 more years of Dak blaming us the Fans

Can we trade Dak for Lawrence? Is that a possiblity? Like it not like Lawrence isn't completely stinking it up as a rookie. Would that be a fair trade? Are the Jaguars that incompetent enough to do that?

The whole "bandwagon" concept is flawed. The truth is just about every team has different kinds of fans. There are the diehards who live and die on every play and are there rooting for the team even if they have the worst record in the league. Other fans are more casual and will watch if something peaks their interest like if they hear the team made the playoffs for the first time in a long time. When any team is winning, it attracts a lot more of the casual fans. It's been like that for as long as the sport has been around, and it's true of every team.

Of course . . . but why is Dak attacking a segment of the Fan Base?

Right after Thanksgiving and before the playoff run . . . this may be the biggest part of the season and we are all still here while they tail spin

Why is he throwing shade on us

Egotistical Narcissist . . . Jerry created a Monster and we got 3 more years of this ungrateful punk
