Dak 1 yard short of tying Romo's single season franchise passing record; 2 yards shy of rec

[America's Cowboy]

Dak Prescott finished the 2019 season passing for 4,902 yards, just 1 yard shy of tying Tony Romo's 2012 single season franchise passing record of 4,903 yards.

Dak was only allowed to pass 1 more time (a 1 yard sideline dump to Tavon Austin) after 9 minutes left in the 4th quarter. The rest of the offensive plays were strictly running plays. Coincidence? I doubt it. Someone must have known Dak needed 1 more passing yard to tie Romo's 2012 franchise single season passing record, and a mere 2 passing yards shy of Dak breaking it.

It is shameful Dak was only allowed to pass the ball 1 time within the last 9 minutes of the game. He deserved a better opportunity to break the franchise single season passing record. He earned that opportunity this year.

The final question was regarding the Romo record of which he was a single yard short.

He said a few things about when he found out it but his final statement was a very clear, genuine, and succinct “... I didn’t make the playoffs, I don’t deserve to break the record.”

 

[Aerolithe_Lion]

I don't see that record as affecting negotiations, but keeping him away from 5000 absolutely does. He can make any claims he wants with that under his belt.

Why not be a true Cowboy and say “If that’s the worst thing to ever happen to me.....”

Another person that is easily impressed by sounds good talk. I see how people get taken for their money now

Who cares? These records mean NOTHING.

We're going home for the playoffs. THAT'S what matters.

 

[PA Cowboy Fan]

Record is meaningless anyway.

is this a joke? They threw on 2nd and third down before punting. He threw to austin in the flat and then was high to Someone...i think it was jarwin or gallup on third down.

Do you think they meant for austin to get tackled one yard short? Give me a damn break.

 

[Captain-Crash]

lmao, so sad. you can only make up this crap. "why can't Dak play bad teams all year?" lmao

 

[bewp7]

blah, blah, blah...

u know i think the cowboys spend more time taking pr classes than watching film.

 

[PA Cowboy Fan]

Dak has always been a class act so that's not surprising.

Not bad for a QB that the idiots on this board told us would never be the passer that Romo was. In Dak's 4th season, he matched Romo's BEST season ever. Given that Romo is apparently a God to some...and that Dak is a terrible QB to these same idiots...that has got to hurt.

Not bad at all.

Oh, and his contract price in fact went up. Should have signed to a Goff/Wentz contract this off season. Now it will cost the Cowboys a cool $30 million plus.

 

[Satchel89]

Dak is a good guy and as tough as they come but I don't know if he's the QB of the future

If he hit Austin last week on that wide open look down the sideline, he would have the record and the Cowboys would be in the playoffs.

Don't worry Dak there's a lot more Garbage in the world to be had....

None of us do after the last 6 weeks or so. I love Daks game but then I also hate his game. He didn't come through when we needed him this year, but neither did most the team. Dak gets franchised and the new staff can evaluate him and advise further.

 

[JayFord]

I never thought Dak would throw for almost 5k yards
I always had him as a 3500 yard 25 td kinda guy

Pretty hard to compare eras like that. The rules keep changing in favor for the passing game, increasing the yards per season on average for all starting QB in the league. I mean, I find it ironic that someone is trying to make this point here, when aikman pointed out one instance in the game where a receiver would've been blown up in the past.

more to the point, Put Dak on that 12 team with no reliable running game, a shaky offensive line with a bad interior and see how that works out.....on the flip side of that Give romo this line and running game along with that group of wr.

Just throwing the numbers doesn't really mean much. The Opposing teams in 2012 game planned to stop Romo and Dez, Romo and Witten. The game plans for this current team are to stop the running game and make the qb beat them. There is a severe difference.

 

[Boyzmamacita]

I don't think anyone on the sideline was even aware of the record. It's just as well.
