Nick Foles has more 4TD passing games in 2017 than Dak has in his entire career

I think Foles is a pretty good QB but I don't expect him to win two playoff games.
Wentz was looking borderline bust last season but their FO went out and got a better Wr than we have on our roster. They have a coach that can adjust and a defense that can be relied on to make stops. Wentz has gotten better for sure but it's because of their record that Wentz is considered an MVP candidate....which Dak was one last year....because our team won a lot.
Anyone putting Cousins (who has yet to beat Dak 0-4) and Manning (who is clearly done) over Dak has a blatant agenda and bias because it's ridiculous. Dak isn't a perfect QB but he is a great leader, young, hard worker, constant winner, who minimizes mistakes and is sturdy enough to withstand some contact without worry. I was a total disbeliever in Dak coming out of college but he won me over. The guy is a winner and he will get a ring or two at some point.

Our playcalling is so predictable its like clockwork. I don't blame Linehan because I think he takes orders from Garrett. I blame the coach because he's stubborness in not wanting to change things up.

Dak has not regressed. He got coached into an archaic system which the league has already figured out. Dak excelled last year because he made plays outside of the playbook. He took a step back because he is forced to playing within the playbook.

Get a new OC and a new coach and this team will be better. I guarantee it.
100% agree. How many more wasted years will it take for Jerry to agree. This being said, if we make it into the playoffs 100% healthy, we have chance because of OUR talent.

fwiw...We could say that about most NFL QBs. Most never have a 4 TD game, let alone in their 1st two seasons.

And as we know, some not so great ones (Kellen Moore comes to mind) can have 4 or more and it doesn't really mean much.
Supzzz bro.....I agree 100%. Just starting convo around here. It was getting boring. :muttley:
You could say I was instigating a debate lol

His #1 WR leads the league in drops. His #2 WR is a body catcher. His #1 TE has great hands but is slower than his OLinemen.
Not to mention they can't even run a full route tree...Beasley is still good but our routes are so predictable.

When it comes to fans who love to trash the Cowboys every chance they get, I am a prick. Guilty as charged. They don’t get a pass from me
Oh gosh I based my whole life on getting a pass from you this is so disappointing.
The point of making here is if Nick Foles was in this offense and had our play caller he'd suck too. Anyway I'm still crushed about the whole not getting a pass from you.
Really.

Yes, Beasley is too small to function well deep where it's often a jump ball situation (yes I know he can dunk) and he does not have super deep speed or RAC elusiveness (Not like a young Desean Jackon at all).

TWill has small hands which limit what types of throws he can catch.

Witten is now a short yardage possession TE.

Dez never Developed his craft/route-running to overcome a decline in physical ability. The big contract didn't help.

Brown might be good paired with a speed WR and speedier TE but his speed is probably just similar to TWill at best.

Switzer is a wildcard. Maybe a little more deep speed than Beasley and slightly bigger but still not a burner. He is not as fast as Lucky on those Jet Sweeps.

The Cowboys talent is over rated on this site. It's not in the same class as the top teams. I am sad to say.

Defense alone there is a big drop off.

We lack good, young talent in the front seven. You have Lawrence, Irving and Lee............. Lee is old and injury prone. Lawrence has shown he's legit. Irving has shown flashes and has real potential but he's not a dominant DT like a Cox from Philly IMO.

If the Cowboys do one thing............ only one damn thing this offseason, it should be throw money at the front seven in FA and in the draft.
