You must be trolling. Seriously!

Prescott was ok in the game. Wilson outplayed him, every impartial fan watching the game said the same to me at the time. Wilson made so many good throws in that game - the Cowboys had a superior team with home field advantage. Again, it's not a criticism of Prescott, he was fine in the game, he kept up his end but to claim that he put the team on his back etc is just delusional. Nice run, it was Tim Tebowesque, best play of the game with his legs. Ironically it was the play calling and coaching of the Seahawks that ultimately cost them by not putting the ball more in the hands of Wilson.
You think anyone gives a damn what some chicken wing eating fan tells you after a game? :lmao::lmao:

We need that Dakota every week. Hopefully the coaching change propels this team

Did you even watch the 2009 playoff game? We lost our starting left tackle Flozell Adams in that game. We didn't have enough line depth. The Cowboy's offense was handicapped because of it and the Minnesota D was already unbelievably good. Even with Witten double teaming the DE to help our worthless backup LT, Romo ran for his life most of the game with a crippled offense and he just got killed. With all due respect, your comparison is short-sighted.

I'm not blaming Romo for that game. He was definitely up against it from the start. His offensive line was absolutely crushed by the Vikings D-Line and it would've been very difficult to win that game. I'm just saying, everything taken into account, all 3 of Dak's playoffs games were valiant efforts and gave us a chance to win... didn't seem like Romo against Minnesota gave the type of effort I saw from Dak in those 3 playoff games no matter how much people like to discredit Dak for the Rams or the Seahawks. Saying A) he didn't do anything against the Seahawks and saying B) that he operated in garbage time against the Rams, for the hundredth time.

Yeah, I'm not a Dak hater and I'd rather not be a part of those lover/hater debates. I was just commenting on your comparison. Romo was one of the best in the league at evading pressure and there was no escape for him that day. So if you put any QB in the Minnesota game the results are likely the same because the line depth and coaches are the same. The coaching had a lot to do with Dak's playoff losses as well.

Saquon Barkley, Christian McCaffrey.

Here is a list, not in order of the top backs in the NFL:

Zeke, Barkley, McCaffrey, Henry, Chubb, Dalvin Cook, Josh Jacobs, Joe Mixon, Mark Ingram, Gurley, Bell, Melvin Gordon.

Personally I put Barkley and McC ahead of all of them. Then I take Henry.

The rest of those guys are all in the next tier.

Honestly...……..I don't need a back that can carry the ball 30 times a game or has to have the ball that many times to be effective.

I want guys that can get the ball 15-20 times a game and make big plays. If I am going smash mouth, give me Henry. I want several backs in my stable. Don't want ONE guy.

Kamara and Ingram when they were together is the ultimate combination for me.

Dak has drive and the will to win. He is a competitor and does not give up. Anyone that truly watches his game can see this. I can't wait to see him in this new offense and with a better coaching staff. Really hope the defense and ST's step up to actually help more this season. I just want things to open up so they can get in a few OTA's before TC starts.
I can't wait to see Dak play with his new toys. If our defense gives Dak half a chance to outscore our opponent we should have an excellent season.

When I saw Barkley his rookie season make a remarkable run against the Eagles. Best one I’ve seen in 10 years. I was like wow here we go. I need that first down I want Elliot I want to take it to the house. I actually like Pollard

You want 2nd and 7, give it to Zeke.

Despite the coaching.



That was one of the best QB runs of any Cowboy QB in a playoff game.


Hell of a run and to think he did it despite the poor coaching. Not only that but you can't detect any of the 4.7+ 40 times in that run he looks like he runs a 4.4 40. He dodges, jukes, and ends up cartwheeling a55 over tea-kettle. Man that was something to behold. It was like he was a 1st round draft pick in that run no doubt.
