This was the best game I've ever seen Dak play

I thought he played a near faultless game against Tampa Bay in his first year but they weren't a very good team whereas the Eagles are a top team. Whatever people think of him he showed a lot of character to come back from the pick six.
 
There has been something different with him since the last texans drive. He’s just letting it fly. Sure it may lead to an occasional pick but he’s being very decisive with the ball. It’s almost like it’s first read second read and then run. I read of sitting back there in the pocket.


He’s using his legs more as well that has helped a lot. He’s looked great using his legs as well. A lot more mobile than last year
 
I have to agree with Risen on this one the pick six was brutal . Schultz was so wide open he could have caught the ball and run it back to Stanford . Having said that the Eagles twice held 10 point leads and each time impressive Cowboy drives unfolded . But this was not nearly a “ best game Dak career “ effort.

True. But he was playing against a good team today. He does baffle me as a QB. He made some brilliant plays today but as you mention, the pick six was awful and I don't know what he was doing on that final drive! I think he wss just too juiced up and didn't think about what he was doing.

Not his biggest fan but it was the best game he has played. Still was not perfect but kudos to him.

Don't know if I'd go that far, but he was quite good outside of a few plays.
 
I applaud Dak’s effort - but no QB’s ‘best game’ should include a pick-6.

Dak’s rating was sky-high but he HAS to eliminate the costly turnovers. Regardless of his overcoming them.

Don’t… make… them.

Honestly it's like he's brain dead at times but it's an improvement over the full panic paralyzed choke he was doing before....

Yes. The one thing Rush does better is throwing passes with touch. Dak doesn’t quite have that. Two times today he needed that. Once on the pick 6 and the other late to Pollard for an almost TD. And I almost lost it when he ran out of bounds.
 
Passer rating of 124 with 6 sacks...77% completion rate. His best game of the year. Still would like to see the INTs disappear for at least one game...but it wasn't him throwing the ball to the secondary. Situational awareness is also still a concern...but Moore is definitely on the hook for this nonsense. Because of that, I don't want Prescott being the quarterback that ONLY does what he is told. This team might have to succeed in spite of the situational awareness problems that persist with their coaches.

Hilton should help but I'd like to see Tyler Smith tighten up on the left side. I think it's 3 or 4 sacks in two games.

Trust me. The Eagles are saying the same thing about their defense that we are about ours. "It's not championship defense when you let Prescott go off for 27/35, 3 TDs and 347 yds". The round table, which included Jaworski, really went after Watkins for the takeaways.

Not sure the Eagles respect Prescott as much as they probably should, considering they have not won at Dallas since 2017.

Isn't Dallas like 7-1 against teams with winning records this year?

Which makes those losses to GB and Jax sting a little harder.

Moore needs to learn to use misdirection run plays when we have established a good lead. A couple of QB runs, tosses, and fake jet sweeps could have made a world of difference in those two losses.

Tonight is weird for me.

People so much happier about beating a backup QB than I am. So much happier with Dak than I am.

I saw Dak hitting very open WRs but having very likely pocket awareness.

Wanna be happy, be happy with the offensive receiving crew. Got open and caught the ball. Some nice running by Ferguson. Hilton looks like a big plus. Lamb getting very hard to cover. Gallup looking like a strong possession WR.

He needs to throw a pick six early in every game, help make him concentrate.

Yep an excellent performance....just cant help think the Eagles laid the trap to get tape for a play-off re-match.

Yep, I get the feeling the Eagles DC got exactly what he wanted from the game.

True, but it actually was his best overall game that I can remember.
