Dak, like Romo, is a garbage stat QB

[starfan1]

Fake news. He is suppose to be the leader of his team...that means 1st. He is the leader...the big man. He asked for it...deliver.

I would like to see that as well . But I’d also like to see the rest of the guys deliver as well : qbs can’t do it on their own at least very few can and that’s real news

not than cnn that gets posted like above

For some reason I thought I was the only one that ever looked at that lol. When a ratio is that lopsided, I just look at the poster as somebody who is full of ****, emotional and lacks knowledge lol.

Yup. The lopsided-ness speaks volumes unless the poster is just “spammy” me thinks… But otherwise, I don’t put too much stock into it as an indicator of a posters merit. But a lopsided ratio like that is worth noting.

 

[starfan1]

Oh...Dak play so nice in the locker room...lets just love him.

you don’t have to love I could care less maybe you need to go to a Philly forum
The qb you despise is gonna be here

Dak has the opportunity of a season...and he sucks at it...it most likely will get worse than better with him this coming game. If only the other players would help him....lmao! That is his MO...."help"! Bull crap!

We had 11 Pro bowlers in 2007, went 13-3 and got eliminated in the first game due to an interception he threw to seal the game against the Giants.

I was a huge Romo fan. I’m always a fan of our players, I don’t bash players of my favorite team, I think it’s stupid.

However, let’s not sit here and act like Romo walked on water. He had a plethora of talent, as well.

That's BS..the int was at the end ,last gasp..after Crayton had just slowed up on a.perfect game winner..not to mention the massive drop Crayton had on a critical 3rd down that Romo escaped pressure,hit Crayton in stride which would have gone for a long play and possible TD..07 was not on Romo..all on Crayton

He's real good against bad teams, or when we're down 2 + possessions against good teams

Cute...another poster that does not want to hear my opinion? I must be a troll...but I'm not a sheep.

I guess I'm in the minority. I like both Dak and Romo. Nothing Dak does makes me think less of Romo and nothing Romo did makes me think less of Dak. I feel like both fell into our laps and without that luck we'd probably have another version of ryan leaf at the helm. All of you football gurus claim to know what you're talking about but this goofy *** argument says otherwise.

 

[lqmac1]

I did not love him I respected him I hated his fans. I do not love Dak either but I probably like him more than I did Romo

he probably gets more latitude from me because he replaced the guy I was ready to see leave . I also think his team mates play harder for him because he more respected in the locker room than Tony

The way I see it is that these guys play for the Cowboys. I can’t do anything to change it, so I get behind them and support them. I realize that it’s in my best interest as a fan for them to do well.

Would I choose Romo, Dak or whomever if I had the choice? No! I would’ve loved to have Rodgers over Romo and Mahomes over Dak, but that’s not how **** works lol.

If they got way more posts than likes then I mentally label them as a ********ter. However, if it’s like yours where it’s the opposite, I tend to have interest in the posts because I’d usually either agree or appreciate the point of view.

 

[GINeric]

Oh because we might disagree or aClaim was made for 10 years ago.....I don't watch games now.

You haters are nuts.

I don't have a problem with anybody disagreeing with me... I just look down on the cowards who make baseless statements without actual proof to back up their weak *** arguments.

I mentioned that in another post. I still haven’t forgiven Crayton for that drop and especially giving up on the would be touchdown that would’ve sealed the game.

But if I remember correctly, we were hovering around a 25-30 yard line with close to a minute left and kept trying to take shots at the end zone instead of getting closer. I remember something like that pissing me off when I looked at the highlights after the game. I felt like there was a few wasted opportunities that could’ve prevented Romo from having to attempt that 4th and long throw.

I usually get tired of the Dak and Romo comparisons because they have almost nothing in common except for the star on their helmets. This one I read the whole way through. I legitimately don’t understand why it has to be one over the other with some people.

Romo was really good and came in at a perfect time with Bledsoe doing nothing but standing there getting sacked. Romo provided an elusiveness that was fun and his ability to improv was exciting. He also made me angrier than any other Dallas QB. Overall I always hoped his explosiveness would get us a championship that never materialized.

Dak came in at the perfect time and took the entire fan base by storm after making a very successful season out of something most of us left for dead in the preseason when Seattle injured Romo again. That team was tailor made for Romo and Dak took it and may have made it even better with his mobility. No matter who ended up starting once Romo recovered, it was going to make half the fan base disappointed. I believed Dak was the right answer but I would have been rooting Romo on to finish what Dak started.

Romo gave us serious potential for big plays which he mostly delivered on. I think the best game he ever had was going toe to toe with Manning against Denver and we lost. But the interceptions he threw many times made me wonder ‘What the heck was he thinking?” I never felt a 3rd & 11 was a punt waiting to happen.

Dak is very responsible with the football, usually cool under pressure makes great downfield throws when a receiver is “open enough.” Daks down side is his accuracy. It is plain as day if you watch. He very rarely hits receivers in stride or throws them open. Most downfield passes that are caught has the receivers adjusting to a high or low pass or sometimes making them stop completely to catch the ball. It seems the NFL has figured him out and takes away what he likes. This is when the offense goes into hibernation.

Romo had the ability to break a game wide open at any moment but the next week he also can cost you the game.

Dak can be successful but a lot has to be right. I’m still a fan and he is my current favorite QB because he leads my team and has big play ability. The good thing is he is still young and hopefully has a chance to win it all.

The biggest difference lies in hat 3rd &11 I mentioned earlier. With Romo there was always a chance he could convert whereas Dak very rarely does. I don’t even think the coaches think he can which is why all 3rd down passes are screens or underneath to an outlet receiver hoping they can make the yards after catch. The OP lays out that Romo never won multiple playoff games and it’s looking like Dak may end up the same way. Time will tell but it seems pretty accurate to me. They both have different styles and both have had a lot of support from talented teams. At the moment Dak has a chance to change his outcome.

Cute! Have you’re opinion once again I don’t care. Dak will get it done ir he won’t but either way he won’t be by himself
I won’t lose much sleep either way . But yes trolls are the ones who have their opinion over and over precisely to get a rise out of others

 

[Blackrain]

Romo could actually throw the ball

Yep and to the other team at the worst times when it was impossible to overcome

 

[kramskoi]

Dak is a system QB. Romo was the system.

He kept Garrett in Dallas well past his expiration date. We got to see just how good Romo could be in 2014 with a tremendous ground game. His attempts per game dropped from 40.5 (2012) to 29 and he beat out Rodgers that year (2014) in passer rating (113 to 112). I do think that he didn't start coming into his own until after the 2009 season.

Romo wasn't as risk averse as Prescott is, which to Dak's credit helps him to limit turnovers...but it also means that he won't press the ball downfield like Romo did. I keep going back to that 3rd and 20 on the road against Seattle in 2014...the Legion of Boom era. 20 - 23 Seattle with just 4:55 remaining. Romo improvises, evades and twirls his way free to hit an extreme toe-dragging Terrence Williams two yards past the first down marker for the play that (in hindsight) sealed the win. The offense went on to score 7 (on a Murray TD run) and put the game away. One of Romo's best ever signature wins. Dallas spotted Seattle 10 points in that game but they never panicked.

 

[SteveTheCowboy]

Do not argue with these fans about Tony. Ran for his life, throws for 300 to get team back in game. Yet these fools say Dak has no time to throw as he happy feets for 3 seconds!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ain't that the truth. They won;t watch the video I posted....it will hurt their feelings.

 

[SteveTheCowboy]

he probably gets more latitude from me because he replaced the guy I was ready to see leave . I also think his team mates play harder for him because he more respected in the locker room than Tony

"more respected". Proof?

 

[SteveTheCowboy]

Perhaps so might be the only thing you and I agree on. I got sick and tired of the excuses being made for Romo over and over and over and half the time they were inflated

I think people see the UFA and the San Fran game with punctured lung and maybe the famous scramble in the costa snap and get all caught up in some Cinderella story or think he deserves more

I don’t ! The only thing I feel sorry for him is the same thing that Dak had they both were stuck with Garrett and Jones outside that He gets zilch from me

he took a lot of hits because he tried to hard to be Brett Favre and his lines were not bad always he had good ones as well

and you romosexuals think it’s fun to throw the Dak card out well he’s is about my 4th or 5th favorite player on team so that don’t bother me

I’m just smart enough to know that on the list of problems this team has he is about 3rd or 4th on list of things that need urgently fixed

I agree....Dak is lower than 3-5 on the list of fixes. So we got that I guess!

The thing is you won;t see me bashing Dak. Am I critical? Sure. (I've been more critical of Zeke this year...and Moore).

But find just ONE comment from me that "he can;t get it done" or "well never win"....or "it's all Dak's fault".

I make this challenge to people like you who claim I'm a hater and blamer. So far...no one has been able to come with even ONE. But there you go....try. Or give it a rest.

Dak would've never got a contract extension if he had the O-line Romo had in his prime.Give Romo a prime Zeke, Cooper, Lamb and Gallup and we would own the NFC. Defenses would never be able to stack the box and Zeke would be stacking rushing title on top of rushing title. Hell, if Romo would have got his job back or be given a chance to compete for his job in the offseason, we would have won Superbowl either that season or the next. Dak would not beat a healthy Romo out for a job.
