If you think Dak played well

[Wildcat711]

Unfortunately we needed closer to 50. Hell, Detroit only had 3rd down 8 times the entire game.

I think they only punted once..

It was a poor effort by the D.. I was trying to think how they looked so much better the past couple of games...

Only thing I can come up with is they were outcoached.

 

[triplets_93]

I went back and looked


Dak has never went on the road and beat a team in the playoff hunt in December for his entire career

Thank you.

This is the tell.

Missed the game because of family event. Gotta lookup the game… But sounds like the Dak we know all too well. Disappointing.

dont believe what you read here lol just watch the game and decide.

 

[DandyDon52]

Dak didnt win or lose this game or past playoff games lol the " team did ".

This game coaches game plans ST Def and offense were awful. I was shocked at how bad it all was.
Only Flournoy and Aubrey played a good game, the rest sucked.
I like shotty, but his game plan and playcalls sucked most of the game. He didnt help the tackles to give dak more time and avoid those sacks.
Eber boy reverted back to being a moron.
It was so bad I sort of think they threw the game on purpose.

I think it's less complicated than that. Almost no pressure at all on Goff. Doesn't this coaching staff watch film? What were the Eagles doing to be in the Lions backfield all game? Were they just rushing 4 with a soft zone? That still doesn't excuse our O in the first half.

This whole conversation is hilarious. Has Dak ever played poorly in a big game? Yes, of course. But he led the offense to 30 points in a game where his #1 was gone before the half and his #2 wasn’t even trying. It was a game when our OL was punked all night so we couldn’t run much, and both OTs were really bad. He threw 2 INTs that were right in the hands of Pickens and Flournoy. Detroit only punted twice and their last punt was with 9:23 left in the second quarter. On top of that, the punt and kickoff coverage teams gave Detroit 261 yards in kickoff returns and a punt return of 21.

Nate Thomas gave up 8 QB pressures and a sack all by himself. Steele gave up another 6 pressures and a sack.

We haven’t had a ton of Dak hate this year, but it’s insane that you guys come out of the woodwork after a loss when Dak was the only reason, besides Lamb in the first half, that we were even in the game.

Well said Chuck54.....some of the threads are comical now.

 

[Cowboys5217]

Dak and his offense did not score a TD in the first half, made us kick five FGs, and did not score in the final two possessions of the game.

That ain't helpin'.

Yep. If not for Aubrey's bionic leg Dak would have lead us to a 44-15 loss.

 

[SteveTheCowboy]

30 points is 30 points.

Five field goals? In most situations, a field goal is considered a win by the opposing defense. Imagine if the offense could have just scored a couple TDs and 3 FGs instead.

Imagine if one or two were in the first half instead of none.

No....I'm not blaming only the offense. Yes...our defense sucks. Jerry sucks...the coaches suck. Rowdy sucks. Our Jumbotron sucks. Fans suck.

Did I cover enough of it for you?

I do not believe in looking at just and only stats (points). There's a nuance, timing to the game that stats do not explain.

 

[WillieBeamen]

Anyone in here saying “30 points was enough and the offense did its job” is a casual

 

[CowboysFaninHouston]

People forget that early in the KC game, Dak threw an INT directly to Nico Collins...and at the end of the game, he nearly threw another pick. He spazzes out in key moments...it's year 9. Anyone who can't admit this is in love.

you did see his arm get hit on that first interception. right?

and yes, the second throw was stupid.

but lets focus on those two plays and forget the other 37.

oh, btw, Mahomes had two almost intercepted. but shhhh, quiet. don't tell anyone. ok. its our secret.

 

[kramskoi]

Dak did not play well. Hard to defend him after a game like that.

Those non-division games on the road are a big downfall for him.

With Thomas and Steele consistently getting their a's whipped?

The way these irrational and illogical fans quote nonsense you would think that no other quarterbacks in the league make bad throws and get intercepted.

Mahomes has thrown 7 INTs this year, with a passer rating and QBR rating that are both less than Prescott's.

Very much so.

Nope.

Poor edge pressure.
DET has the best OL in the NFL.

Previous games: Philly: Hurts is a poor passer. It's easy to cut off his running lanes by stacking the box.
KC: KC just isn't very good this year. They are what their record says they are.

Dak is what he is. He's having a really nice season. I doubt he'll ever win a SB, which in fairness, is not entirely his fault being stuck on the Jones turnip farm. That being said, he also almost always does just enough dumb things or has enough bad performances that would make you question even if he had better personnel and better people in charge, he could win a SB.

He'll go down as statistically one of our best QBs but that's about it. A good, not great, QB.

Giving him too much credit Syd.


What QB has two receivers as good as the ones we have and cant score more than 2Tds?

Fair enough.

Let's do playoff games now.

So I take it you don't wanna do playoff games.

I'm going to pass out from being not surprised.

 

[Chasing6]

Im seeing a lot of fans “relieved” that the defense should shoulder the blame for this loss as opposed to lumping Dak in there as well.

He played a bad game. The lazy will look at the stat sheet and see he threw for over 300 yards and the ints were the fault of the receivers.

He was inaccurate on several deep passes (got CD concussed).

Threw that horrific backwards pass instead of throwing it away

Led 0 Td drives in the first half against a team missing most of their secondary.

If you think Mahomes played well with his 3 picks and 17.1 QBR, when his D once again only gave up 20 points.

Is he going to retire?

Is KC going to cut him with his $70M cap hit next season??
