Twitter: Dak wasn't the problem Sunday, it was the defense

[gtb1943]

Wholeheartedly disagree because if George Pickens makes the catch That interception was meant to go out of bounds he couldn't get enough on it 'cause he threw it off his back foot it happens he's allowed a mistake no he had nothing to do with the loss not even a little bit i'm sorry he's blameless in this one they were holding his receivers his receivers were dropping passes his 78 wasn't blocking well the run game wasn't exactly fire And the defense's special teams are horrible no he's off the hook 100% i'm tired of this three years now we've been talking about making excuses for the rest of the team and it will get better someday but when this guy has what would be called a normal to above average game for a quarterback for the limited possessions he had he did all he could given the circumstances he's blameless in my opinion 100 percent blameless in this one that interception wasn't thrown recklessly he was trying to get it out of bounds and it should have never happened if George Pickens did his damn job making $27.5 million and complaining and threatening to hold out because he thinks he's a really great wide receiver...

Don't get me started that interception was not an interception in my mind it was a culmination of the snowball effect from the rest of the team not doing their job and for one George Pickens had a chance to flip the field change the momentum in the game put us in scoring position and it hit him in the damn hands and he's why that interception happened 78 is why that interception happened play calling is why that interception happened..

I am not putting that on the quarterback at all trying to get the ball out of bounds because that is a natural thing for a quarterback not to take a knee or take a sack he was just trying to get rid of the ball and it didn't go far enough and by the way the defender made an awesome play on the ball to get his knee down it was spectacular give the defender some credit..

not an interception in my mind
explains why your novels are worthless

The whole team pooped the bed!
I can’t think of one member of this team that didn’t contribute to the clown show.

Dak for the most part always puts up good numbers, it's what he does situationally that stats don't tell, like throw a dumb INT at the end of the half on the road to swing the momentum of the game.

That was inexcusable.

 

[Surfguy]

That was inexcusable.

That was true Dak. How long has he been doing that now where he gets under pressure and just throws some crazy pass prayer?

[MikeT22]

11 straight years where Dak isn't at fault. Congrats #4.

 

[DCwarrior]

I think at this point it's not whether Dak is the problem, it's that Dak is never the solution.

Post of the year!!!!

In other words dont believe your eyes

 

[CowboyFanInLexKy]

The loss was a team effort. Dak is part of the team the last I checked. But again.... It was a team effort.

 

[Rockport]

The team is also the outler in your head, what happens with it is inconsequential.....you will hold no bounds, or wear your Cowboys hat in here. His INT caused a 7-7 game to swing the momentum to the Giants coming out of the half. At some point you may actually blame him for it, and not blame world issues on everyone else. It's actually quite pathetic,. Why not stand up and say Dak wasn't the only problem, but was part of it? In no world should we have won the game on Sunday, to believe otherwise is more delusion

Haters gonna hate putting most of the blame on the QB.

Well, if you are referring to me as a hater once again, I challenge you to back up your point, and not based upon a criticism of a stupid pass the QB made that influence the game...? Surely you can find other points I have made in regards to GP, and the D, right? On a side note, the Reds are runnning it back next year...if there is a next year

But you mostly talk about Dak. All the Dak time. Astro’s are on the downswing and will probably start a rebuild after this year.

Lol, it's hard to avoid the topic of Dak when he takes up about 85.68% of the threads on here....if you want to learn more about Mr.Redsfan, you should read threads not about our QB...just sayin'.

 

[LouBrown]

This ....100%
It seems Schotty and Dak take the first 2-3 series, trying to see IF they can score, rather than aggressively attacking the end zone. To be honest, I tend to believe it's more Dak than Schotty coz these slow starts were problems under MM also.

Kind of. It's more that they waste time trying to play ball control and run the ball. It was the same nonsense under Garrett but a bit lesser under MM

 

[PA Cowboy Fan]

More of a killer than the defense or the dropped passes?

The defense sucked. The drop passes were awful. This is a Dak excuse thread. It's a thread that is always made to excuse the qbs shortcomings. Because we can never criticize Dak. He's untouchable.

 

[JBS]

His interception was a killer .

Big time. But I’ve seen some suggest Dallas wins if the doesn’t throw the int. I don’t see how we win even without the interception. Defense had no prayer of getting a stop

 

[erod]

His interception was a killer .

Changed the game entirely.

 

[SteveTheCowboy]

Notice how this argument is framed. Wording is VERY important.

"Dak wasn't the problem"

Wasn't THE problem

As if ANYONE said he was THE single ONLY problem?

No one said that...but here we are arguing it.

Again....WORDING.

"suggest". It of course is within the realm of all possibilties. MAybe not the no inetreception part...but if this allegedly potent offense goes down for a TD there...are you saying it wouldn't matter at all?

mmmm....I dunno. I'd SUGGEST that may not be true.

The defense was the major problem why we loss. Dak was a problem. Heaven forbid we say he needs to play better.
