better talent than the 90's team. zack martin and smith and Fredrick (yes, I know he is injured this year). better than Alan, LT and Newton and whomever at center....

when we had Romo in 2014 and in 2016 when Dak was an unknown, teams played us honest, this OL was all world....

Not better, different. They were road graders in the '90's. These guys are more athletic to be sure, but I'd still take Eric Williams, Nate Newton, and Mark Stepnoski over La'el, Connor, and Fredbeard. Tuinei is probably the only guy I would sub with Tyron.

and those were the 90's.......and Dak does have Zeke...he is not getting the job done. teams have figured it out since last year...when zeke was gone...it all came down to Dak and teams figured out, that they don't need to fear this guy, they actually need to put the ball in his hands and force him to win the games. so they have been selling out to stop running game and force him to pass and he is not doing a good job of it... we saw the break down of the film for first two games and there were plenty of WRs that were open in plenty of plays that he just didn't get the ball there or didn't see them. he is not putting the ball where it needs to be and now WRs are looking back. he is holding on to the ball too long and makes the OL look bad...Dak is not good and someday very soon all his supporters will realize that and come to their senses that for the good of the team, we need to find another QB

This is the problem with fans. Ignorance is bliss, even when opposing players have told you this in countless interviews. Ill simplify it for you.

Reporter: how were you able to dominate Dallas WRs.

Opposing defender: We see the formation and we know what theyre going to run. they dont have any deep threat so we know we dont have to worry about that and can break on the route.

Thats the problem. Some of you, people just like you cant get over the hate for Dak even when you gripe about the system and everything in between.

in MORE LAMENS TERMS, teams are saying they can call the play being ran because Dallas recycles the same plays in the same game situations. You know teams do watch film. And not replayed games which some of you call film.

Josh Norman, Patrick Peterson, Derelle Revis, Landon Collins, Janoris Jenkins, Dante Hall, Chris Collinsworth Troy Aikman, All of Cowboys media Luke Kuechle, and list goes on and on. Stop being lazy and google interviews done on this topic or just dont act like you have never seen these players say this exact same thing.

I just asked you to prove your assertion. Deflection is the height of laziness.

NFL defenses as a whole have basically took outside routes away. Thats why you see trips bunched and you see "natural" picks freeing a guy up to get that open. Or you see a QB scramble and you see it open late. Does Dallas run these kinds of plays?

Right because those plays results in big plays -- defenses were taking those away Dak's rookie year too and he burned them in the middle of the field with Witten and Beasley.

Then after watching a year of tape D coordinators realized Dak doesn't really have the ability to burn them outside and started packing the middle of the field. That's basically what we have been watching ever since. This year we have tried to counter with more go routes since Dak does throw those well, but blitzing reduces the time to throw and those routes just aren't there in such short time frames.

OK, then lets nominate Dak for HOF, since according to you its everyone else that's the problem, Troy Aikman is wrong, all other analysts are wrong. you know more than all of them. right?

I wouldn't. the only guy from back then that would defintley start on this offensive line would be Allan. I doubt if Newton would beat out Martin as martin is both nimble and strong. Eric Williams before injury was a beast, after injury he was average to good. I take beard over Stepnoski....

funny that people so touted that emmitt was good because he ran behind a great line, but only one member of that line made HOF.
