The Hurts fumble

[ConstantReboot]

People are singing his praises....if Dak has that fumble.....nuclear warheads would have been launched.....!!!

I still think Dak is better. Hurt has so many weapons and an elite oline. Dak has a patchwork oline and aside from Lamb, no one else to throw to. Give Dak what the Eagles offense has and hell be a pretty good QB.

Dak couldve played the same game Hurts played last night and everyone wouldve said he was trash and it was his fault the team lost and not blame a defense that couldnt cover 2 pregnant chicks and 4 elderly men

1. Hurts won as many playoff games in 2 weeks as Dak has won in 7 years.
2. Dak led the league in interceptions even with missing 5 games.
3. I doubt Dak not only could get to a Super Bowl, but have the same game as Hurts with only 1 turnover.

But come on man...you do the very thing you hate others doing. You find ONE thing to prove your point. And ignore all the other stuff.


It's okay....I don't hate you. But you do the SAME stuff YOU hate other people do.

The difference between Dakota "WENTZ 2.0" Prescot and Hurts was the number of turnovers each committed. WENTZ 2.0 was a turnover machine this year, end of story!

If Dak fumbles but then throws for 300 and a TD, runs for 70 yards and 3 TDs, I am sure we'd be fine.

I think in the context of leading 6 scoring drives it’s not as damning. Any QB who has 4 TDs and 1 turnover is typically depicted as having a phenomenal game.

You could correlate it to the pick 6 Dak threw early against Philly in game 2. Few use that to define his game because of everything else that occurred

You've hung around here long enough to know that that isn't the way we play. The QB is always to blame if his team loses. The six scoring drives don't matter because that one mistake cost Philly the game. Not the defense's fault at all. Hurts should have done more.

We've been like this since at least the Romo days. Probably were like this before but not as much internet or message boards around during the Aikman days. Probably would have blamed him for the 1994 NFC Championship Game loss to San Fran (in which he did throw three interceptions). In fact, he threw an interception on the first drive that was returned for a TD. (Nevermind that Irvin fumbled on the next possession and Kevin Williams fumbled on the next one as the 49ers took a 21-0 lead in a 38-28 Dallas loss.)

People really think he outplayed Mahomes

He did you idiot. I swear I'm really starting to see why people hate Cowboys fans. Sensible fans knew to keep quiet and let these two teams have their moment, meanwhile ******* fans couldn't wait to trash the Eagles for losing in the Super Bowl.

It's not about the error (everyone makes mistakes), it's about the subsequent reaction/meltdown (Exhibit 1: Dak, vrs 49er's) as your QB visibly crumbles as adversity takes hold... whereas Hurts drove his team to two TD's (one of which was a 75yard drive in the 4th Inn) and a 2 pt.

Whenever you tools get called out you immediately forget how a discussion forum works and suggest you're being followed or stalked, lol. Like clockwork.
You can keep reading the same fan-made fallacy that Dak can't read a defense. It's one of the dumber ones, but that doesn't stop you from parroting.
Would you feel less threatened if you just blocked me?

I stay out of the Dak debate because it's pointless. He's here and isn't going anywhere, so we have to hope for the best.

The one thing I've noticed over and over on the debate though is one side seems to resort to name-calling a lot more than the other.

Sort of dumbs-down your argument when you have to use it to get your point across.

Just my opinion.

 

[rnr_honeybadger]

Only difference with that thought is Dak won the game, Jalen lost the game with said turnover being a factor.

Too bad the same couldn't be said about Dak's multi interception performance against the 49-ers.

 

[Roadtrip635]

That fumble was huge and really kept KC close. Philly was dominating the 1st half, but was only up by 10 pts, felt like it was a lot more. Instead of being up 10 at the half, they could have been up 17, or more by 20 or 24 if they scored on that drive instead of turning it over. Considering that KC scored on every drive in the 2nd half, there probably wouldn't have been enough time to to come back from 20 or 24. The Philly defense could still have played as poorly as they did in the 2nd half and still won the game.

But still nowhere near Dak's white flag performance vrs 9er's.

Unless your Romo versus Peyton Manning

That's true, but if we had just lost the exact same way the Eagles did, most would not be praising Dak for the way he played the rest of the game. They would be pointing out that one play that probably cost them the game, and there are others that if we had won and Dak had the same stats as Mahomes would still be ragging on Dak for getting "outplayed" by the other QB.

Dak is better?!! You wouldnt trade Dak for Hurts straight up?

Cmon man.

I think if Dak could ever lead the team to even an NFC title game, let alone a super bowl, the narrative might change a little.

Remember when Dak had 3 first team All-Pros on the O-line (Hurts didn't) and a RB that won the rushing title by over 300 yards (Hurts didn't) and we couldn't even win a playoff game (Hurts led his to the Super Bowl)?

Give Dak whatever you want and he will fail.

Losers will always find a way to lose.

 

[SteveTheCowboy]

When he fumbled the Eagles were leading 14-7 and the Chiefs scored there was over 9 minutes left in the second quarter. By end of the first half the Eagles were up 10 points. Also I'm evaluating this by the standards set by the Church of Dak since no fumble, no interception is ever the fault of Saint Dak, shouldn't the same apply to Hurts?

One of these Dak Crusade guys actually blamed Kellen for that interception, where he threw the very same pass that almost just got intercepted. Kellen made him throw it.

Borders on insanity.

 

[glimmerman]

They had a good game. So did chiefs. Comes down to turnovers and missed opportunities. It’s usually a good game when it’s high scoring and comes down to mistakes. I fell asleep in the third.

 

[SteveTheCowboy]

How is that a prop up though?

It just seems to me...there's some funny business going on. Using one play from a super bowl qb to show Dak isn't a failed QB, but Hurts somehow is.

This whole dak thing has me quite puzzled. It's Romo it's Hurts it's always something else.

I'd said before I'm amazed that we're not terribly bored with this bickering stuff. Feels like Groundhog Day.
