I'm being ACCURATE, you should try it.
No, you really aren’t. Not even close. Accuracy is that every NFL team and scouting report had Lynch rated much higher than Dak, and accuracy is that Jerry, while interested in Lynch, was not willing to pay what it would have taken to get Lynch. You, on the other hand, are acting as if everyone knew Lynch wasn’t a good prospect and that Dak was a better prospect, and you are treating Jerry as if he actually did make the trade.

Ummmmm..... a three year starter with 33 wins under his belt...?
Wait? People fault Romo for being regular season successful and not post season successful, but now for Dak the very same standard is an accolade?

No I'm not, I'm just not trying for revisionist history like you feel the need to.

Wins don't matter? :huh:

Dak has flaws but the Cowboys are indeed 32-16 since he took over. He must be doing something right.

But I am out on this argument now, so you guys have at it.
No made up stats don’t matter. Try using official NFL stats, there’s less ambiguity there.
Even if winz were real, how exactly are Dak’s meaningless regular season winz that the team manages in spite of him better than Foles Super Bowl and playoff winz? :huh:

Official NFL stats. Only Tom Brady the last 3 season has better statistics than Prescott

Everybody says Prescott can't win without Elliott. Yet he went 500 yards against the Giants when they let him loose it's the game plan Prescott has the tools

Yep, that was a must win game where the first place NY Giants played their hearts out, awsome stuff.
If you really think Dak doesn`t need Zeke or at least acknowledge that a big part of his success has been because of his 2 time rushing champion RB (2016 and 2018), then, there`s nothing more to discuss.

My football knowledge is extensive I have over a hundred thousand post on the old Forum Landry's hat. I know exactly what I see and what I'm talking about. When the game is on the line and Prescott has the ball in his hands expect to win . Are you trying to tell me winning a division game is not meaningful. Do you have any knowledge about this game. Confidence alone was priceless
Yes I am trying to tell you that winning an end of season game against a tanking team sitting multiple starters (and that Dak himself shouldn’t even be playing in) is meaningless. Try and keep up.

Yes of course every quarterback needs a great running game. But you say you can't win without Elliott alone is ridiculous

Say something intelligent if you want me to try and keep up. Every game especially late in the season for confidence reasons alone is important. Try to tell me it's not

Foles has no Super Bowl if Carson Wentz doesn't blow out his knee. Using the stat measure means Troy Aikman was one of the worst quarterbacks of his era.

Meanwhile, Dan Marino would trade all his stats for one title.

The number one thing a quarterback can achieve in the NFL is win. And if the Cowboys are winning in spite of Dak, please explain the 2015 season before he got here.

I don't believe you rest players before playoffs. Only injured players sit. Try to keep up

Literally every objective statistical metric?

I mean that seems pretty self-explanatory to me good friend. Dak has a better rating, better TD/INT ratio, better YPG, better YPA....

Really, so things like Completion percentage or yards per game don't count as an objective statistical metric? In 5 games, Foles averaged 282 yards per contest last year. Dak averaged 242. How bout winning percentage, does that count? Foles had an 80% winning percentage while Dak had something like 63%. I think that there is at least room for speculation on what you consider to be self-explanatory. Foles has gotten it done, while in Philly, with the limited opportunities he has had. I see nothing that points to Dak as clearly superior.

I can't wait until Dak gets his contract. There will be so many tears that day. It's going to be fun to watch.

If your a Real Cowboy fan....you along with us will ALSO be crying at some given time in the future.....as Dak will cost us at least 3 Superbowl's and maybe more....

Okay, so tell me my inaccuracy....

Was Dak considered a higher rated prospect than Lynch? Did Jerry make whatever offer it would have taken to acquire Lynch?
I bet he is glad he didn’t make the trade now...

Nope, not what I said, I said, "Wentz over Dak, and forget about stats, just imagine Wentz with Zeke and Dak with whoever RB you choose from that team. I bet they would look very different." So don`t try to change the subject of you saying Dak is better than Wentz.
