That's also been a part of the team philosophy before Dak came along. Ball control, keep the scores close, don't make mistakes, run the clock, which keeps games closer. Even when we were leading in some games, we played conservative football, which keeps the door open for another team to make a comeback.That would be better. Let's stop forcing our QB to have to lead game-winning drives. Some other teams make it easier on their QB by actually establishing leads and holding on to them.
Of course, this is nothing different than we saw with this team with Romo at QB, the need for comebacks because our defense blew a lead. Hopefully, we're getting the defense to the point where that won't be the case and it will simply be up to the offense to give it a lead to protect.
