Can we stop with the QB chasing already? Its the defense and special teams that need immediate attention.

Give Dak one more year to see if he can eliminate the inconsistency, like that second Eagles game. Build a defense first. Then, if Dak is not showing more consistency, then trade picks for a QB. And by the way, there is no guarantee that any of these college QBs are going to be better than Dak. A lot of top college QBs have failed in the NFL.

Yes...! And then we trash the new QB who inevitably WON'T be as good as Dak... and spend all season whining about how we could have continued to build around our young QB with all the intangibles and WINS.

...........dont leave out the part where the new Qb may be as good or better and that we saved paying 40 Mil for mediocrity and signed veteran FA help on defense with the savings

You trade off 2 yrs of your draft when you have so many free agents you guarantee any QB you draft fails

The Cowboys were #1 in Total Offense
The Cowboys were #2 in total passing yards
The Cowboys were #5 in total rushing yards
The Cowboys were #3 in total receiving yards
The Cowboys were #6 in total Points.

The Cowboys were #9 in total defense
The Cowboys were #10 vs the pass
The Cowboys were #11 vs the run
The Cowboys were #11 vs points


Hmm...offense or defense ...hmmm

Impressive numbers for the offense but a real head-scratcher on why it could only score 3 FG's against the Eagles for the division?......they feasted on crap teams and scored plenty in garbage time against better teams when the game was decided.

But yes, the Defensive stats were also built against the same crappy teams and we saw what happened to them facing good offenses.

plenty of improvement warranted for all 3 phases of the team.........but just dont pay 40Mil for Mediocrity

I can guarantee a college QB wont take up 25% of our salary cap

Impressive stats, so where was this vaunted offense in the games where NO only scored 12 on offense and we lost? or NE where the Pats only scored 13 on offense and we lost? or the Eagles where they only scored 17 on offense and we lost?. If we win any of those games we make the playoffs. Those offense ranks were the result of beating up on horrible horrible teams the 1st 3 weeks of the season and also by putting up alot of garbage time stats against teams that had us blown out by the end of the 3rd quarter (want me to name those games and the scores at the end of 3 quarters?)

Wut?

Saints? Pats? Rams? Eagles? They didn't play many proflic offenses this year, but this take is way off. The defense's worst games were against average, at best, offenses except maybe the Vikings.

Has Jerry having 100% of the say worked out any better in the last quarter Century?

Jerry is final word but others are clearly involved. I accept Dak critics do not want him, that is fine that is your view. I don't agree with this view and have watched steady progress with Dak. I think McCarthy can get more out of Dak

This is dumber every time someone posts it.

Jason Garrett went ultra conservative in road games and it absolutely crippled the offense. It's the reason why he is no longer the head coach.

There were also 20 bad defenses in the NFL this year. EVERY TEAM beat up on them.

I like Herbert. I like Tua.

I don't like either enough to pour a crap ton of draft capital and players into trying to acquire them. Burrow? Well, then you might have my interest.

Ya ok! Thats why in the Saints game Dak threw 33 times and in the Pats game he threw 34 times and in the Eagles game he threw 44 times...cause we were playing an ultra conservative version of our offense....lol. 12 points, here i'll say it again 12 points and we couldn't beat the Saints, now i'll grant you that can happen to teams sometimes but then we get the the Pats 13 points!! and in the biggest game of the season for us we couldn't score more than 17 to beat the Eagles and get into the playoffs

And get our new Franchise QB.
Lions would be dealing here I figure as they have no need for a QB.

I'm guessing maybe 100 more such threads will actually compel Jerry & Son to do as you ask.

Keep up the good work.

Please stop with these complete unrealistic threads just because you do not like the current QB.
I know, the team knows, an old grandma in a nursing facility in Texas knows and most importantly YOU know that the Cowboys consider Dak a franchise QB and want him to stay and that they have no plans what so ever to trade up to number three to get a QB.

:clap:

Was Minnesota a good or bad team? Or that doesn't count because it doesn't fit y'all agendas
