Goff out dueled Dak in a playoff game a few years ago. He may not be good but he's better than Dak.
out deueled? how...did Goff rush for 250 yards...wow Goff is such a great RB. perhaps he was lamar jackson and we all missed it.

Goff is so good, his team gave up two first round picks to get rid of him. that's how good Goff is

Some Lion named Craig Reynolds rushed for 112 yards on Arizona. The Cowboys RBs rushed for 25.

Who the heck is Craig Reynolds?

Reynolds actually had more yards than
Goff managed that game perfectly. Dak got a lot garbage time stats which keeps fooling a lot of fans who didn't watch the game. He sucked when the game was still in question.

Cowboys could not stop the run in that game easy to manage a guy like that off of play action.

Probably because the offense put the defense on the field too much. Lions defense didn't have to be on the field much because the offense had multiple 8 minutes drives.
the Lions defense didn't give up an 8 minute drive in the middle of first half. what's our defense's excuse for allowing a depleted offense to stay on the field for 8 minutes in the middle of first half?

I'm not arguing the Rams won the game on the ground. But, the idea what Dak made his numbers when the game was pretty much out of reach shouldn't be held like a feather in his cap either. If he was better in the first half and able to string some drives together, the Rams offense is on the bench and its a closer game at half. Goff played a smart game and made no bad plays. It would be nice if Dak could have a game like it.

so essentially what you just said, Goff was the perfect bus driver, because the offense was able to rush for 250 yards, while the cowboys offense managed only 50 yards of rushing.

got it :thumbup:

Again, playing against a Ram defense trying to keep everything in bounds. The game was lost in a 23-7 3rd quarter hole. Dak's TD with 2 minutes remaining against a prevent defense is nothing to brag about let alone make a claim he gave us a chance to win.
don't care how you want to describe it...he did.
we out played the rams in the 2nd half and had the momentum.
goff scrambles for the 1st down...game over.
that game was lost in the trenches defensively.
we could not stop the run.
and that game alone was reason #bazillion why so many on here come draft time wanted us to address the DT spot.
goff got the w and thats the only stat that matters.
but he did not out perform Dak that night.
but you already know that.
so keep playing pretend.

Oh my god. Dak was not good and got us in a hole we could not climb out of........ do you not understand a prevent defense? Piling up numbers against a prevent defense is not impressive.

Imagine Dak with the Lions supporting cast. Oh boy!!!
that's cowboys 2018.....his supporting cast was Deonte Thompson, Williams and Allen Hurns...first 8 games....we got cooper last 8 games and were top NFL offense during that 8 game period.

oh boy

we couldnt string drives together because we couldnt get the rams off the field with their ground game.
but what the hell am i doing this for.
you already know that,atlanta.
but continue with your narrative.

Prescott is the current garbage time QB, Blake Bortles before him.

I think that Murray had a passer rating of over 90 in the first half. The defense didn't do enough to make him uncomfortable. They held them to 25 points. But still there were times where the defense could have played better.

Overall the whole team could have been better. They'll either learn from this game and adjust to Arizona in 2 weeks or they'll be making a first round exit.

My narrative. The score was 23-7 mid 3rd quarter. Its Dak time! The man feasts on bad teams and prevent defenses.

Dak lives in their head rent free. they are so obsessed with their hatred they can't see the rest of the team sucking so bad. what will they do when Dak is gone? kind of like Romo haters.....they were all lost for a while not knowing who to hate

There are many who bashed Romo, who didn't start loving him until after he left and they needed to use Romo as a tool in their hatred towards Dak.

there are a few who are still holding a grudge after 6 years...not sure why people have to hate on anything so much. its not healthy...literally some of them only focus on Dak and Dak only....

What does it say about Kyler Murray only putting up 12 against the mighty lions? I’m not defending Dak. He was bad yesterday. But it’s not like Kyler Murray has been great every week.
