Or perhaps there are too many people on here willing to see what they want and use it as an excuse to lash out in a vile and disrespectful manner.....regardless as I really do not care.

On to next week.
Yes I don't understand the hate and anger. Our 2nd string QB dropped the dime and played well. Why can't we be happy about this. I'm going to break out the Dr. Pepper and chocolate chip cookies

Dropped a dime? If Dak made that pass Gallup saved him. Lol wow

Remind me again, how much is Dalton being paid compared to Dak:facepalm:

Dak was getting paid nothing before his tag and yall still was coming at him for every little thing. I remember when his detractors said he couldn't throw it deep.

I can't agree on drafting a QB top 10 with a defense as bad as this one.
After watching Darnold, Haskins, Daniel Jones, Paxton Lynch, Mitch Trubiski, Bortles, Rosen, Mariota, Winston, Tannehill, Gabbert,...... and more.... we are far better off fixing this defense and rolling with Dak.

I’m a big Dak fan, I hope we can bring him back on a deal! Only reason I want to draft a qb is because teams that pay their qbs don’t win a super bowl.. most of the time it’s on a rookie contract or qb taking under market contract aka like how Brady did.

Well I for one was excited to see what would happen on that last drive. Probably a little more so than if Dak would’ve been out there

I think there’s a chance this team has a better season with Dalton than we would have with Dak, if only marginally so. And before people jump all over me, please hear me out. It’s not that Dalton is the better QB because I highly doubt he is. But with him at the helm I think it’s more likely we go to more of a ball control offense versus the slinging it around that we were doing with Dak. With a competent defense I think the slinging it around could work. But it also comes with more turnovers and less time of possession which puts more pressure on an already garbage D. I think running the clock and taking care of the football reduces the liability that our D is and keeps us from digging huge early holes as we have done in every game so far this year.

With that said, this team wasn’t going very far with or without Dak. Just too many holes to be honest.

That game in Cincy should be interesting for Dalton.
Might be the only win we get of those games.
SF could be a win although it is late in the season and might not matter. That game next week IMO will determine how this team goes for the rest of the season. You win that game and you start feeling good about yourself with Dalton. If not it's probably an uphill battle for the rest of the season. None of those games are games we can't win but you have to take it week by week now.

Okay, so it was a dirty dime.
Like the ones you see in a Wawa parking lot.
Crusty, run over, barely reckonizable.
Still though, its a dime... lol

...or you just assume things as I was celebrating Dalton leading Dallas to a win and avoiding a 1-4 start but whatever.

You were....backtrack if you like. Man up and apologize if there's remorse but don't lie, proof is there for all to see.

Go 5-1 in the division and then find three more wins among: ARI, PIT, @MIN, @BAL, @CIN, SF
Not to argue with you, but the team that struggled to beat the last place Giants has no chance of going 5-1 in any division in the NFL.

I agree.
That is exactly right.
