Dak has huge flaws but he is clutch
Yes and no. "Clutch" would've been hitting a wide open Cooper for a sure TD. "Semi-clutch" is throwing a ball that's catchable, but requires an extremely good catch by Beasley.

That said, he had a very good (almost great) game, and if he can play like that in the playoffs, I like our chances.

You have to give respect for at least that.
He's like the anti-Romo. No gaudy stats, for the most part, but when the game is on the line... we all waited for that pick by Romo.
We all expect Dak to just find a way.

I will give at least that to him and it's a huge thing.

Part of my optimism with him going forward is the fact a huge majority of his bad balls are the result of poor footwork. Man I think if we can fix that he can make strides. Time will tell but I have no problem rooting for him until things sort themselves out.

I’m so glad Garrett played the healthy starters today. Looks like he may have learned something from ‘16 playoff flameout.

It’s the giants. I want to see him do this next week
Yup
That didn’t take long ...
what’s that mean ?? It’s the giants ? It was an nfl game against an opponent who is in our division?
Dak looked good , period ,.. he was clutch in a meaningless game ... a game where the defense gave up 30 points .. a game without Zeke ... a game on the road .. a game with two of the o line anchors not starting ?
Of course we all want to see the entire team play well next week in the playoffs but that doesn’t take anything away from how the team and Dak played today

I'm still on the fence with Dak but he played great today when it mattered. Kudos , hope this bodes well for the playoffs and he continues to throw downfield. If the D rights itself and Dak does 3/4 of what he did today I like our chances.

I can only hope, big guy. I can only hope.

I wonder if Beasley was hurt for a while, and that's why he disappeared. He's really come on the last few weeks.
He's been dealing with a foot injury the past few weeks. Looks like he's turned a corner on the injury front. Good timing for us.

This is the kind of game we needed going into the playoffs

It was ugly and we looked bad on defense but when it was time to pull the bootstraps up we did

They won.

Dak was great despite no Zeke and half an O-line.

We had a productive TE.

Defense stopped the Giants when it mattered.

Back to back games with multiple takeaways.

Clutch!

The discovery of multiple offensive options.

Are we all okay with this? Can we accept the total destruction of certain agendas?
Now let’s do it when it matters!
