Fortunately for the Cowboys they really don't care if you're bored. They will continue to rely on the 2 out 3 year league leading rusher as their primary option. It's obvious that you haven't picked up that trends run in cycles. At one time 95% of the teams ran a 4-3 defense and then came the trend and 1/2 of the teams switched to 3-4 and then the cycle changed and teams started to switch back to 4-3 defenses. Trends run in cycles but one thing that hasn't changed is there has always been teams that have really good RB's rely on the running a game to base their offense on.

Could you please restate this: Trends run in cycles but one thing that hasn't changed is there has always been teams that have really good RB's rely on the running a game to base their offense on.

I couldn't make heads or tails of it...

I guess when Dilfer was the 21st ranked QB but the ravens had the #1 defense and won the Super Bowl, that doesn't count. Your statement is just when people say unless a team has the best record and home field through out they have little chance of winning the Super Bowl even though there have been wildcard teams that have. Why Prescott has to be top 6 passing when the Cowboys are a primary run team is baffling.

Let me unbaffle that for you! 1-10 on 3rd down conversions in Rams game.

Gee there aren't any real big words there. Trends in the NFL run in cycles. The one trend that never cycles out is there are always some teams, like the Cowboys, who have a really good RB and chose to make the running game the focal point of their offense.

I see, you're another Prescott hater who makes assumptions and generalizations based on a game or play and not use all of his games or plays to make your determinations. If you only realized before writing how obvious and crystal clear how weak your argument is by using limited cherry picked samples to prove your point. Not saying that the limited success the offense had was only or even primarily Prescott's fault seeing he went 20/32 for 266 yards and no picks, but while you're at it list all of the QB's that have never had a bad game and/or play.

Evidently you dont SEE! Your love for Precott has clouded your vision. Dak only started to produce when the team was down 20-7 and the Rams couldnt help but relax a little. If it wasnt for the defense killing themselves to hold the Rams to FGs the Cowboys could of easily been down by 30 points. Yes you can call it one bad game but it was the biggest game of the season for Dak to have one good drive and then start off so slow that he couldnt help the defense catch thier breath. Dak is a middle of the pack QB that has premier talent around him. That talent has helped to keep him from being a bottom level QB. Put Dak on the Jaguars or Browns and he does nothing. This thread is about can Dak win a championship and I dont believe he is good enough.
Even if they beat the Rams do you really think the Saints game would of played out the same way. And if they won that do you think Dak would lead this team to victory over the Chiefs or Patriots. It just gets harder and harder. Dak isnt even on the same level as the 4 QBs playing in the championship games. So my comment about him being not good enough has nothing to do with hate it has more to do with talent.

All we can do is educate the dummy's



Oh boy this couldn't be any more true!!!



"Dak is inaccurate" lmao sthu and sit down




Stay woke, not ignorant my friends!

Sounds like Dak is so accurate he is right up there with the best. I wonder why he missed so many open WRs down field this season?

He missed less than average amount of receivers down the field. He's throwing the long ball more often, and with more attempts you're going to have more misses.

So it's not "so many" it's actually less misses than average.

We can win a championship with Dak, if Dak doesn't ask for more than 15 million, if he wants more than that, then move on. Because he is no Rodgers and can not carry a team.

QBs worse than Rodgers have won every Super Bowl since the beginning of the NFL outside of one year that Rodgers did win it. Dak has carried this team at times, including two of our last three games, so it's a pretty silly statement.

He's getting way more than $15M so just accept it.

I think your confusing accuracy with completion percentage!

I think you can't read graphs, I guess. You literally quoted the evidence proving as such.

Ugh it was literally there in front of your face

Because every QB misses open receivers down the field........

If you actually watch other games, you see it happen all the time where a QB has a receiver open down field and misses the throw.

As a matter of fact. And on the topic of this thread. I saw the Super Bowl MVP from last year, miss on a whole bunch of throws down the field, against the Bears and Saints during these last two playoff games. Including a few that were intercepted.

The cowboys need to be as perfect as possible in order for Dak to win anything special. It's almost impossible for teams to do that, and imo QB's that need that much assistance are not worth the time.

I'd rather take my chances with a QB who has better skillset and abilities.

Dallas has never been good at babysitting any player and most players like Romo, dez, Murray, Witten etc have always did it on their own.

Dak on the other hand needs a little more assistance than those guys and that is where it becomes a big problem.

Now I'm not the major Romo fan like most but when common sense told Romo to make a left turn when the coaches wanted him to make a right, Romo always made the left.

Dak will never become that. He will always play how the coaches want him to which plays directly into their flaws.

Dak is a guy who doesnt get it and will never get it. That clearly showed in the playoffs on the big stage.

He failed to make those left turns against the rams and because of that, I am out on dak long term.

He showed me just where his mind is and will stay regardless of the situation.

It's obvious with the four best defenses(Bal, Dal, Chi, LAC) being put out of the playoffs that defense will no longer win championships with today's offenses.

That brings me to our QB. Dak is not a pure passer, we will need to pass to win in this league from now on. Our style of ball just wont cut it and anyone who believes it would are fooling themselves.

High scoring offenses are becoming a trend and it will only spread throughout the league as the years go. Dallas will certainly have to "join'em" to bring competitive football to this fanbase.

Now I know most of you will tell me that Dak needs a fair chance with better coaching but I disagree. Dak simply is not built for this new trend that will soon take over this league in the next few years.

Not only is Dak not talented enough but he has hit his ceiling and is not a player that can even develope the skills needed to succeed in this jungle. He just doesnt have it.

The rams, saints, and cheifs will be there every year to intercept teams like Dallas and so will the newcomers that are starting to look for the mcveys, Payton's, and Reids.

Dak was given a chance to prove he could carry this team and he failed yesterday. He failed to run when opportunities where there, he failed to be accurate, he failed to extend drives, giving the ball back, which contributed to the rams continuing their scoring party on the defense.

When you get hit in the mouth you have to hit back everytime. Slip ups by the captain righting the ship are unacceptable.

Dak is not a captain. He is a players that cant keep up with the herd.

If you are not skillful enough to run with the herd then out the door you shall go.

As a fanbase who have put up with loads of BS through out the years, we dont deserve just competitive football. We deserve "competitive championship" football.

Dak as a handicap will never give our fanbase that.

Not to disparage your post, but overall, defense is what won the divisional round of playoff games. The Chiefs broke the Colts. The Rams lassoed Cowboys. The Saints clipped the Eagles wings. And the Patriots deenergized the Chargers. If Dak cannot get the Cowboys to the championship, is Luck and Rivers in the same category? Out of the losing group, Foles is the only proven QB, although his resume may not be acceptable to all observers.

The defense actually forcing a turnover during a playoff game would be nice help.

Dak capitolizing on opportunities would help also. The defense has had Daks back more times that whole season then he has had theirs.

Now when the chips are down and they call on the mighty Dak for help he is nowhere to be found.

It's like flashing the "BATsignal" in the sky and batman doesnt show up!

Then accept never seeing A SB. I like Dak, but he needs elite talent around him.

The offense scored a pretty high number of points per drive against the Rams. They actually did well with the number of opportunities given to them.

The problem is, the defense played so god awful horrible that they didn’t have many opportunities.

The offense would have had to be perfect to beat the Rams, given how bad the defense was. And no, Dak wasn’t perfect.

Either way, and ignore the point I made if you wish. But getting ZERO turnovers in the playoffs isn’t going to win championships either, no matter who your QB is probably.
