I agree that posters who labels others “Dak haters” are in the wrong. People are taking too much of a black and white view when it comes to the QB

However, your post makes it seem like the labeling only goes one way. There are many people on this board that label anybody supportive of Dak or
Who believe in him as “Dak slobberers”. Which is a highly disrespectful and personal insult. All because a person happens to believe in and support the starting QB.

So the problem of labeling is a sword that cuts both ways right now amongst some of the posters here.

The truth is somewhere in the middle. Dak isn’t perfect and has things he needs to get better at. He played poorly during stretches last season and needs to keep improving.

Dak also doesn’t “suck” and isn’t a noodle arm, non talented bum, who didn’t do anything positive last season, like some would
Have you believe.
ALL FACTS... :thumbup:

Stop with the Labeling already.

If I state right now that the Cowboys should have played Romo in 2016.

The 1st thing that is gonna pop in your brain is that I Am A Dak Hater.

If I say that Dak may have had a hand in the downfall of the receiving stats of the receiving corp as a whole.

The 1st thing that is gonna pop in your brain is that I Am A Dak Hater.

If I tell you that I like his intangibles that it is obvious that he is a natural leader on the field.
If I tell you I see a bright future for the Cowboys and I am very excited to watch the progress of Dak.

What's the 1st thing that is gonna pop in your head?

Confusion

You can't phantom that the same person can be so diverse in his thinking. In your silly small world everything is black and white. Either or Or.

You know what your reactionary thinking and labeling does it puts you at WAR with those you perceive as on the other side. You then attack and force your inflicted opponent to defend himself. Often said opponent is left dipping and dodging names and preconceived labels. But always in the end you pat yourself on the back for a job well done.

The mysticism of Romo, it's crazy for some fans. Romosexual, Dak Hater, if you defend Dez your Dak Hater, If you pushed for Romo your Dak Hater,. If you say at this point in his carear he needs a lot of work Dak Hater, and his accuracy is not on par with other NFL Qbs you are a Dak Hater,

This all stems from 2016 Daks ROOKIE YEAR.
Romo's final. During that year there were many here who were so perplexed and frustrated that this team didn't go back to The VETERAN and not only any veteran but 1 of the most intelligent, uber competitive, QB 's to ever play the game. Many Fans were so delighted that this team was so talented that we were able to win with a rookie behind center.

At the same time we were ectatic that we had such a bright future in Dak. But for the life of us we couldn't understand why Romo was on the sidelines. We thought we were trying to win a Super Bowl.

But all the other fans were drinking the Kool Aid. You were high on Dak and never wanted to come down. You threw Tony under the bus.
You said he was over rated crippled can't play any more washed up, the team can't stop the momentum. Dak gives us a better chance.

All the time we argued. That there was no chance in hell that any rookie would improve the chances of the Cowboys to win a Super Bowl over Romo point blank. Including the Rookie winning with this amazing team that was built for Romo.

That's when the labeling began. You wanted to drown out the obvious truth. (You loved the pedastel the national media put Dak on and you never wanted him to come off it.) In order to drown out the truth. You labeled us Romosexuals and Dak Haters.

Now that narrative carried over to last year and this off season. Except now if you defended Dez you hate Dak and always have. We just want to see Dak fail. Dez has gone through a very precarious situation.

It's been over a 2 and a half year timeline. Injuries and QB play have been the major contributing factors (but if I say that I some how hate Dak) but if they were the only factors it would be easy to still love Dez.

Except that all that frustration culminated in Dez playing at his worse at the worse possible time. Seattle. We all saw it we all know what happened. He single handedly ended any possible chances of the Cowboys advancing to playoffs.

Many here claim that IS who Dez is. A washed up WR. National Media ran with the narrative and the frustrated Parrots parroted it.

So to sum it up:

There are fans who went "All in" with Dak in 2016. Because of this stance you took you have defended it to the death and anyone else who points out this flawed thinking is labeled a Dak Hater which is untrue and unfair.

You threw Tony under the bus then and you threw Dez under the bus now. You have been unloyal and desecrated the legacy of two of the greatest Cowboys ever to wear the star (but I am a hater.) For no other reason but to defend Dak and the foolish belief he was gonna lead us to a Super Bowl his rookie year.

Well it didn' happen but you all said that Tony was a walking cripple that never won anything (and I am a hater)

Dak struggled with injuries to his offensive line and not having a RB ( Many things Tony played with his whole carear but he was overrated"). Dak struggled with reading defenses and accuracy and you all say that Dez is washed up and has always been a Cancer.( and I am the Hater)

No, those of you who threw those two under the bus are not "Supporters" or those who think so much about the team that you put the team 1st. Ahead of players.

No you are disloyal people who are quick to desecrate your biggest stars who have given there heart and soul to this team. All for the love of Dak
“Wow”, I could respond to all that drivial but why.

I never liked labels in the forum. There was a time where I supported Romo and couldn’t stand Garrett and I felt people would still label me a hater because I didn’t like one aspect of the team. Just last week I started posts of how I loved the draft. I think Witten is a stud but glad he’s retired. Like Dak. Still not big on JG...so all over the place yet the JG thing still gets you a hater status despite the positive. Strange. I feel like the act of calling out people has overtaken just talking football

Of course he had more football intelligence he was in the league for 12 years at that point. Fact is Romo never threw for 300 yards and 3 tds in a playoff game. Like I said unless Romo was gonna be a ref or take byron jones' spot for that one play it would have made a bigger difference in the game.

Dak at his best, whether that was last year or yet to come will never match the 4th highest rated QB of all-time...Mr. Tony Romo. In fact we may see Mike White this year at some point.

How is his qbr when it counted in week 17 or the playoffs I doubt it's 4th highest. Tony constantly put our team in a bad position with turnovers then pad his stats in garbage time he even said so on air last season talking about ways to "pad" your stats.

Well, love him or hate him, we all better be hoping he is the guy because we lucked into the only QB we've had since Aikman and leaving the choosing up to this brain trust is asking for a guy that evaluates QB's on how pretty the spiral is. Let's not forget the two QB's they wanted before Dak. How are they doing?

I think it's ridiculous to be calling this so early, Dak's predecessor was still riding the bench in his 3rd year. I am going to wait until I see how he plays this season but you can put me in the "Like" group with Dak, just as I was with Romo. In my experience, posters see what they want to see and what they're looking for.

I support Dak but don't compare the guy to Tony Romo. You should check yourself into reality.
I never said they're the same person. I also don't talk in absolutes in regard to a 2nd year player. To suggest Dak will "never" surpass something Romo did is silly. Did your magic 8-ball tell you that?
What we can do is compare the 1st two seasons of each player. That's fair, right? Try it and get back to me.

You don't know that. He should have started in the playoffs, if he goes down you put in Dak. There was no risk.

That was debated on a lot of pre game shows, even Jimmy weighed in on it saying he would stay with the hot hand in Dak that season. Add to that Dak played an outstanding game vs GB hitting 63% for 302 and 3 TD's. It was not as if Dak play hurt the Cowboys. Not saying others who had a different view point was wrong or right but I don't think in the end the Cowboys were wrong for staying with the hot hand in Dak and his play proved that

One started two whole seasons and one rode the bench.

Romo was light years ahead of Dak in football intelligence as a veteran and should have been given the chance in 2016 when he was healthy. He played good in playoffs in 2014 (Dez Drop vs GB)..our defense had Mincey and Selvie at DE. How easily we forget.
Raise your hands slowly to the side of your face, and please take off your Romo Blinders.
