The Cowboys won a SB under the coaching of Barry Switzer. You going to give Switzer the credit for that SB win? It's widely agreed upon that the Cowboys won that SB in spite of his coaching.
It's on his coaching record, he gets credit for it then and now . The big difference was Aikman at QB, everyone knew he had no limitations, Dak on the other hand may be a reason for the coaching killing limitations all have seen, only time will tell the full story.

Good job of straddling the fence and give a completely ambiguous answer. You might have a career in politics ahead of you if you want to pursue it. :thumbup:

There are several quarterbacks who make great throws though that are not great quarterback. Matthew Stafford makes great throws at various times, but I don't think he's great either.
Jeff George threw the prettiest passes ever.

no one takes Dak top 5, luv the fake hypotheticals , yes he moves into first round vs 4 and maybe goes around 10 but stop the bs how zeke keeps coming up in these conversations from haters..


Best case scenario that draft is Bosa failing to us and we also dont take dak and Romo never gets hurt that year , take Henry in the second round but that didnt happen.. SMH half this forum is Fantasy island with Opinion based rhetoric saturated with narratives..

you cant change the past..because what ifs can also be played to death as whomever we took at 4 and in the forth instead could have got hurt and on IR first day of practice and never plays another game again and thats how history works..

..
This take convinced me

Zeke -- has not played a single game without Dak, we have no idea how good Zeke is outside of Dak...he could be...not saying he is...another Leonard Fournette outside of Dak

Cooper -- the same one that mostly everyone was against even trading a 1st round pick for? The one that mostly everyone thought would be wasted because Dak "can't throw anyways." The one that was going nowhere fast in Oakland playing with a "much better QB" in Derek Carr...that same Cooper?

Gallup -- 2nd year, 3rd round pick... That many had ranked as the 9-11 best WR in his draft class? If this were Tony Romo, people would be screaming that Tony MADE Gallup.

Lamb -- I not even sure if Lamb has even ran a route in practice yet as a pro.
Boom!!!

Yah, not so much. A very fair number of Cowboy fans think Dak is average. Tons of opposing team fans hope we give him a huge contract and sink ourselves. And the same media touting him now will turn on him in a second as soon as he gets a big contract and delivers average results. I wish a Dak was half as good as you guys think he is.

Sometimes I wonder if Peter King even watches football.

He doesn’t. Obviously.

He plays people like you who wouldn’t be talking about his article if it weren’t for him saying something stupid like that.
Yeah just like what Troy Aikman and Emmitt Smith said about Dak. I guess they're both stupid too and you're the genius?:muttley::facepalm:

They said Dak is good enough to win a championship..

Duh.. Some bad QBs have won Superbowls.

Did you also get your Cowboy Pom Pom’s out when Emmitt said that Dak should take less money?

Duh.. Money has nothing to do with evaluating a QB.

Zeke was the MVP of that team.

All of the accolades going to Dak is because of the position he played.

He was fantastic for a rookie but Zeke made that thing hummm..

While Zeke garnered more MVP votes, Dak received votes for league MVP in his rookie season, so obviously Dak can play at an MVP level.

Also, you didn’t address the fact that despite Wentz being absent for the Eagles entire playoff run that year he played at an MVP level, they won the Super Bowl. So how valuable was Carson that year? We can never know for the regular season, but come playoff time, a bag of chips was more valuable to the Eagles as it could at least provide calories for players.

Considering your argument AGAINST Dak using Zeke, how do you rectify that with what happened to the Eagles after losing their MVP level player you think is better than our MVP level player?

Dak was the steal of the draft, but now it's payday time.

Eagles are playing with house money because they won a Super Bowl.. They can do whatever they want.

We’ve won squat
