I think the best part of the game was the sideline reporter telling us after the start of the 2nd half that Garrett's came plan was to run the ball and dink and dunk and essentially "hope" that a WR broke a big play.

LOL. You can't make that $#%@ up.

I wasn't a dak fan and I said we would have an answer in six weeks when Zeke went out. 2 weeks in, plus Smith and Lee out and the answer becomes clearer by the game.

Dak came in behind perfect OL, with dominant RB and was a great bus driver but he isn't going to be the answer. A great QB wins despite the players around him.. dak can't even get a TD without the perfect support cast. Very worrying signs.

Putrid game by Dak. I am sure he knows it. He's rattled. For a 2nd year player his coaches certainly aren't doing him any favors either. Not defending him, he sucked tonight....

In all seriousness. Where are the pick plays to help WR’s gain seperation?

I swear to god they run routes from 30 years ago.

You’ve yet to even form an argument regarding Daks studliness, but here is to hoping you are right even if it’s just blind faith.

Lol...blind faith. Are u even real? Your either a complete troll or completely clueless. You keep up the dak sucks train and I’ll fire up the Garrett sucks wagon. Enjoy.

Romo would only come back for the Boys.

I'd take Romo with a bad back over this scrub.
I'll take neither, you can hang on to Romo's sack, but I want a #1, top draft pick QB in here. I want skins on the wall.

Dak is not a franchise QB. Several of us have said this all along. He is a role player. QB should be the best player on your team. Dak is not the best player on the team. He's bad.

I gotta be honest.

I am starting to buy into this. Great QBs still show flashes when things break down around them and we don't see that from Dak when things go wack. He's struggled back to back weeks against teams that can bring pressure.

Throw in a coaching staff that certainly doesn't help him and what you get is what you get.

And the sad thing is, I don't think Jerry will change a damn thing this offseason.

I’m hoping for JG to get canned but QB is a major problem. Dak was fools gold. He’s proving that all year long. His only good games have been the ones where Zeke has huge success and the defense lays off him. He’s not a winning QB, he’s a bus driver that needs a dominant RB and defense. In other words, he’s a backup.
So you want him to make plays for his receivers too, who can't get open or stretch a defense vertically.

Dak is basically a better version of Brad Johnson. He’s not a playmaker like Romo nor is he as accurate as Aikman. So basically he’s a conservative QB who isn’t accurate.

Usually he won’t lose you the game but when you need a spark he won’t give you one.

We can win games with Dak, he'll be fine. He's not that gunslinger of your dreams and frankly he doesn't need to be to be highly effective. Better coaching would help but even with our "worst coaching stuff ever" Dak has shown real quality. You know how hard it is to find a viable option at QB? We have that here folks and you should be great full.

With no protection too!

I like Dak but if you arent somewhat concerned right now I dont know what would concern you. His passing game has regressed this year.

I have high hopes for him as he is a tough kid, with excellent character, heart and work ethic. But he is definitely in a funk. I realize his numbers have been really good but he has missed a ton of throws. He has made a ton of plays as well.

All I was hoping for was incremental improvement and I dont believe thats the case so far this season.

However, the deck has certainly been stacked against him this year starting with awful matchups out of the gate and now losing Zeke while our Oline falls apart after losing Leary, Free and now Smith.

All said the rest of this season will be revealing as to what we actually have. Am I writing him off? Hell no. But hes gonna have to show something. He cant always have everything perfect and everyone healthy. Adapt and overcome, thats the game. Fwiw Id still bet on him.

Another thing............ I don't know if the pressure is mounting on Dak, but if you go back and watch him from last year, he would take far more chances with the ball than he does now. He seems quick and ready to just quickly hit a short, safe route.

He's ***** up in the head and this coaching staff ain't gonna help him try to fix it.
