Clutch Prescott

[black label]

That was very difficult for me

I’m half drunk and I don’t care go Cowboys!!!!!!

Thanks for being sensible. He played well and was, as you said, clutch. Others are so dug in they actually root for our team to lose. Odd behavior imo.

Why do you hate Dak?

I loved Romo and while his defenders were bashing the defense, I among a few others were consistently saying the offense was at fault because of the incompetence of Jason Garrett and all the stats that people were masquerading around were empty stats and the team each season would eventually implode like it did.

Like I said, Garrett’s hands on the offense ruined Romo’s legacy and the one year he finally got rid of him with Linehan, he had his MVP season and they actually ran the ball.

This is absolutely correct, and I've pointed this out loads of times. It's one of the things that I wonder about Dak as well. Romo did really well all things considered, and I wonder how much more Dak can improve if given a coach that plays to his strengths like his scrambling ability. I think someone like Andy Reid would be perfect for Dak. Someone who knows how to use a scrambling QB.

It always amazes me the way people qualify stuff to agree with their points.

So what the Giants only had 5 wins and were missing players?

Like we didn't?

Almost the entire OL plus Zeke?

How do you get all of your players on the field after 16 games?

It doesn't happen.

It's astonishing, you expect that kind of talk from a rival, or another fan, but your own ? Everyone is talking about it, but it means nothing.

Lol anyone who believe that bs Khalid is spewing needs to rethink, what killed Romo's legacy was Romo and the fact he never had a defense to compliment his play. Put that on the GM and the FO. Andy Reid hasn't done anything either,

Rubbish! Romo had his share of flaws, but by no means was he the core of why we didn't advance beyond the divisional round. Indeed, Romo actually was a big reason for us to have been as relevant as we.were. Garrett has been awful then and is awful now. I think that Garrett and Linehan need to be sacked if Dak is going to develop properly. I think that it is stupid that Dak doesn't run more. It's clearly a strength of his.

Additionally, I refuse to bash Romo to prop up Dak, just as I refuse to bash Dak to prop up Romo. Romo was brilliant in his own right and Dak is brilliant in how own right. As for Reid, I think someone that uses his system that he used with McNabb would be brilliant for Dak. That'd use his running ability. Hence, like Reid.

The really sad part is....if Dak wins Saturday he will have tied Tony Romo playoffs win total. THATS SAD. Just win Dak...

Romo was part two playoff victories. Dak has yet to be part of one. And teams win games, not QBs.

Well, qb's are on a team.

What means nothing?

To you?

Or the guys that actually make a living playing the game?

 

[Runwildboys]

You're not wrong. I guess that's exactly what's bothering me. I don't frequent the board as much because of it. I love to talk about the Cowboys. They've been a part of my life...well...for all of my life. I thought the negativity was just trolling, but it's also infectious.

But you are right, it's in every thread now...and my comments didn't help.

Don't be afraid to put them on "ignore". You think you might miss something, but with most people, not so much.

I'm not sure, but I think he was sarcastically saying that from the other guy's point of view.

 

[CowboyStar88]

I got this weird feeling that pass to bease is a career “defining” moment. No, hear me out here. I don’t mean it in the sense that it propelled the team into the playoffs, but I feel like that was the “play” that pushes Dak to the next level. I don’t think it can be understated the confidence a pass like that can have on a QB. He just looked different after the first quarter like an ah huh moment. I dunno, just got a different feeling about it. And this from someone who has been very critical of Dak.

Garrett and Linehan aren't awful, that's an exaggeration. I'm a huge Romo fan but to say Garrett was the reason he didn't win is lazy. Romo made too many mistakes at the worst possible time that contributed to bad results. As far as Reid and McNabb, that system as many say now is outdated, also, McNabb and Reid benefited from some of the best defenses year in and year out much like BP benefited from Belickech.

 

[Nav22]

I don’t think, I know. He didn’t do anything but hand off and throw short passes. Today was different.

What an embarrassing take.

The QB’s job is to read the defense and make the right choice with the ball.

When he throws short passes to an open receiver who gets a bunch of YAC, that’s the right decision by the QB.

Tom Brady has made a HOF career out of taking the short stuff that the defense gives him.

I'm talking about kuza, saying comeback stats means nothing

I agree that he made untimely errors, but I still think that Garrett and Linehan aren't what this team needs. For example, I still think that Linehan hasn't been helpful for Dak in terms of not letting him run. I don't think that the coaches do a good job at playing to our strengths. Fair point about McNabb and Reid, but I think you can get the gist of where I'm going with it.

 

[nobody]

I dislike the term "clutch" because it relies too much on the play of others. How can a QB be "clutch" if a receiver makes a hard catch? How can a QB be "not clutch" if a receiver drops and easy to catch ball?

It's a stupid idea. Now can a QB be cool under pressure and help the team come back from behind? Certainly. I think Dak has the talent, but is hampered by coaching a lot of the time. Other times he is too scared to commit. He's still developing so there's time to get rid of some of the poor tendencies. He has been part of the red zones woes the team has faced this season, but I mainly blame coaching.

Let's hope they get it together come playoff time. It seems like every time the Cowboys have been to the playoffs in the last 20 years, they've come in half-unready to completely unready. Again, that's coaching.

So I say to the Cowboys and anyone saying they are a championship team or are "clutch." Words are cheap. Prove it.

Stop,stop,stop. Linehan isn't stopping Dak from running, again stop with the lazy narrative. They call plenty zone reads for Dak, defenses forces him to hand the ball off, or he makes the wrong reads. Other times Dak won't take off because he's always looking downfield. You saw that Sunday. Those are decisions Dak make. Dak isn't Wilson, Jackson, or Watson, he's not that type of athlete, he's not making moves and making guys miss, he's a straight line runner and is more prone to get banged up because of it.

Dak is clutch, elite and superb if he wins a superbowl .
