Fans blaming Dak

[nobody]

This defense did not give this team a chance!!!!!!!!!!!! What game were you watching?????

You think it's an either or? Both can be true. Why is that difficult?

If you are blaming Dak for this loss....you should be banned from talking football. This defense was a sieve.

That and people dropping passes left and right. Our D gave up 10+ play drives over and over. And the o tackles aren’t it. That one pick by Dak was dumb, but the whole rest of the team was garbage.

175 yards passing. 1 INT.
Throws off of one foot and thn throws while he is being tackled.
Our D might yet again be putrid but Dak did not help his cause.

There is plenty of blame to go around and yes, Dak deserves some.

 

[RustyBourneHorse]

Slow start on Dak
Interception before half on Dak
Missing on deep throw on Dak
Leading the “top 5” offense to 7 first half points on Dak

Yes, the defense is to blame but so is Dak and the 2 WRs with key dtops

Exactly, at the very least, he needed to be giving the defence more rest in that first half and moving the ball more. Skatabo was obviously going to wear the defence down, and Dak has to get that ball moving to give them a chance. And as the QB, he has every right to tell Schotty he wants to go for it. He should have made it clear we're going for it on that first drive.

...which nearly took three additional minutes to cement. Minutes that were becoming more and more precious trying to secure a comeback win.

Yes it did. I'm not defending him. He does just enough to be betrer than average against average or less teams and then either disappears or doesn't get the support he needs to win against better teams. Its been the story for 11 years. He missed a throw and he threw a pick that led to a two score swing. The defense though come on. He could have scored on every drive tonight and still lost that game.

He's capable of winning and taking the team far but needs ALL tools avaible around him to do it. Aint happening so we wait for the next "franchise" QB and hope things are different. However hope is not a strategy with Jethro at the helm.

Really simple.....Look at Time of Possession and also ask where was the Giants' punter (He went home early.)

 

[Swagger]

He didn’t outplay the other quarterback. His interception hurt.

Quite.

It was a huge 14 point momentum swinger just when the Cowboys were set to take the lead before half time.

The defense obviously needs some more serious work but Dak's fingerprints were over the defeat as well. He was lucky to not be picked again after an awful throw with around 5-6 mins remaining in the 4th quarter.

He was outplayed by Dart...that's the reality.

I wanted the Cowboys to smack down that obnoxious Giants rb.

Dak did not come out playing as a Seasoned Veteran in Game 1.

 

[triplets_93]

The seasoned veteran Dak crapped the bed.
Others did bad things too.
But Dak has nothing to hang his hat on.

 

[triplets_93]

Dak spotted the giants 7 points before halftime. I don't care about the Pickens drop. Stuff happens. What is inexcusable is your 60 million dollar player doing something like that. That's an awful throw. Dak stat pads against bad teams, always has and always will. He's not a winning player when it counts most.

Until that changes, that is, what it is.
I blame Jerry for paying the guy.
Jerry is the worst GM in the League.

I'm triple posting without knowing it.
I better go to bed.

Embrace mediocrity. It hurts more when you fight it.

He didn’t outplay the other quarterback. His interception hurt.

That’s not why they lost. Did you watch the game or just look at the stats?

 

[DarkVader33]

I'm sorry. I'm normally a Dak supporter, but he has a huge hand in why we lost. That pick before halftime was likely the dagger. He's not the biggest problem. But he didn't help us there. As long as he just throws it away, we likely go to halftime 7-7. Unfortunately, he threw a duck that sapped any momentum we had going our way out. So, yes, the loss is partly his fault.

I expect growing pains from the defence, but they did make a couple key stops. That takeaway could have been the momentum we needed, but then the pick happened, which was inexcusable.

QBs throw picks almost every game and don’t lose. Did it hurt? Yes, but it’s no way the reason we lost.

 

[DarkVader33]

Good grief the Dak Stan’s here just cannot stand it when they’re not being talked about.

The dakidiots can’t shut the heck up. I guess the D played great tonight and the cowboys should have won.

 

[DarkVader33]

Let's take the loss and the poor play of the defense off the board for a second. One question. When the game was still in doubt, what is your opinion of Prescott's throw when Lamb got behind the defense for a sure touchdown?

Do you always pick and choose one play to criticize most QBs? I’m sure you don’t. I know you’re much smarter than that.

 

[DarkVader33]

Dak got outplayed by their QB fo schizzle.

He also didn’t have to play against his own crappy defense. You would probably do pretty well against them

 

[DarkVader33]

His dumb throw did cost us. Take the sack or even grounding.

It was not good but it didn’t cost us the game.
