Goff and Dak went in the same draft . Wonder if Broadus was scouting for the Rams back then .


:facepalm:

He's a Romo with slower release, slower ability to process defenses, and absolutely must have top tier talent around him to succeed (see Zeke 2016, Amari 2018.5 - 2021).
He’s never had top tier talent around him. That’s Aaron Rodgers and Mahomes. Nice try though.

Let’s get this out of the way first:

1. I’m pro Dak
2. He is better than Rush
3. I’m not suggesting Rush should start over Dak
4. I hope we win a super bowl with Dak.

Having said that it’s time that people started being realistic about our QB situation:

1. Dak starts off horribly slow.
2. Dak killed several drives today that were totally ON DAK.
3. He’s not a top 10 QB.
4. He struggled with the 32nd ranked defense.
5. Something is wrong with Dak in terms of seeing/processing the field.
6. Dak’s accuracy is very suspect. I’d say Dak is in the bottom 1/3 of the league in that category.
7. Dak doesn’t elevate the team. Dak doesn’t elevate the team.
8. The WRs are getting plenty open, Dak just doesn’t see them.
9. If they don’t run Dak 3-4 times per game —Dak is going to have a much harder time winning. He needs that threat to keep defenses more honest.
10. The only way Dak wins a SB is if the team Carrie’s him. He is nothing more than a middling bus driver right now.
11. I would love to see Dak develop and become the next Tom Brady, but I don’t think Dak has the football IQ to get it done.
12. Dak has the physical traits but he doesn’t have the mind to get it done as of right now.
13. I like Dak and I like Zeke as a Cowboys fan, but those two together are a handicap to overcome.
One thing I want to point out is that, although Detroit has the 32nd ranked defense, they came to play today. They were in the backfield a lot.

Other than that, I'm not really gonna argue much.

Dak is a good bus driver, but Moore loves putting him in the shotgun. Shotgun runs makes Zeke look average. Without a strong rushing attack Dak looks average.

Moore doesn't understand how to use his players. That's why they struggle with efficiency quite often.

My biggest issue is the lack of awareness about QB play across the league.


Yes Dak has some deficiencies. But people who complain often and loudly about them, often fail to bring up how freaking hard it is to find a QB better than Dak. Like they can be found just anywhere.


There’s a reason that QB’s at Dak’s skill level get massive contracts….. because they’re hard to find. Finding even better ones is damn near impossible.
It’s bitter fans with an agenda. I thought Dak looked solid today. Nice zip, accuracy, wasn’t hesitant.

first 2 drives they featured zeke and it sputtered. I thought the majority of the drives that featured pollard were not effective.

zeke had a few very nice runs and GL he did great.

nope…..Dak thrives in the spread hurry up.

Dak looks fine when pollard is leading.

He's played poorly in 3 straight games.
What does he have to do for you to see there is a problem?
He’s played two games so now we are picking 3 games? Why stop there? He came into the season and sucked against the Buccs. He was decent today. What on earth did you expect today the guy injured his thumb on a 6 to 8 week injury.

Dak went 19 of 25 for 207 yards, 76% completions, 1 TD, 0 INT, sacked 2 times, pressured all game long but still got a 113.3 passer rating...

But Dak sucks in every statistical category and can't lift the team? :facepalm:

"I'm a Dak fan..."

Yeah, freaking right!!!!

Bunch of ignorant haters seriously dumbing down this forum.
