I wasn't the poster that put up the challenge. I would never do that. Just curious if I missed something in the article. FWIW, I think we were on a smaller Cowboys forum at one point so I don't have any issues with you.
FWST? Cowboys forum?

Later in the game without being touched he fell down . Think that was the drive Turpin gave the offense the ball at the Lions 40 . How Detroit stayed in this game so long as bad as they are is not good . The only time Detroit sees a playoff game is on television . Dallas has to play better ( offense ) to do anything in January .
Yes he was paddling back so fast. The defendant was on him before he even got the ball

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.
What’s wrong with you people,

He was terrible against the 49ers , so that's 3 games.
I expected better play today.
I respect you as a poster, so we are just going to have to agree to disagree.
The rest of the season will prove out if hes worth the contract.
Based on the last 3 games I don't think he is.
Well based on his last 3 games? No. He's not. And i'm in the same boat. I'm gonna see how this season plays out I just disagree he should've been better than he was today. But i'm just comparing to how I saw Russell come back and he was far better than that.

This ain’t very “pro Dak” lol. If this is your observation for this year? Fair enough. He’s only played twice so I’d agree with some of the above. But if you are saying his resume isn’t that of a top 10 QB then you must have a bad top 10. There’s Pat Mahomes and Josh Allen. Then there’s the Dak’s, Burrows, Watsons, etc.

lol, Dak in the same sentence as Burrow. You guys crack me up

Fair enough.
Maybe I have unreasonable expectations, so I could very well be wrong.

people crying Moore should game plan as he did for Rush. well, maybe big ego isn't going to take the easy passes and hand the ball off. That is what I learned today, dak will not run the same game plan as Rush did, but let's blame Moore.

Dak, Smak... who cares?
He is what he is, just an average NFL QB who was able to make Jerry overpay.
.
I like Noah Brown.
I think he's the best receiver on the cowboys' current roster, despite the unfortunate fumble near the goal line.

after seeing the thread title, I didn’t even have to open it to know it’s going over 10 pages…

it’s pretty clear reading this board after a win why we are pretty much universally seen as one of the worst fan bases in the league. Thank God Philadelphia fans will always be around to keep us out of the basement in this category
