One thing about KM is, the only way he will run the ball two consecutive times is if it works the first time, or they're close to the first down. He needs to trust the running game because we needed it.
OMG… if KM would just spend 5 minutes a day browsing this forum he could learn so much about football. Please join KM!

Defensive played great but Dak is not the engine that makes the offense go. It has been that way since he joined the league.
He's not, it's the offensive line. when they struggle we've got no run game and no pass game. Basic football.

Offensive line was trash tier which is the death of gaining any traction. Then throw in the fact Dak was terrible because of said OL and when he did have time he either missed horribly or the recievers had the drops.

OL struggles so will damn near every quarterback.

Pollard is the only one who didn't have his head up his ***...

You asked a question above about what do I expect you to say.

How about just say Dak wasn't very good without then saying this above? Because it reads like excuse making for Dak and that, in fact, he wasn't bad today, it was just everyone around him that was bad.

I mean you can see how that reads right? On one hand you say, "yeah, I can admit Dak wasn't very good today," but then in the very next post you say well how could you expect Dak to play better than he did if everyone else was bad?

If you want to act clueless so be it. But dont expect the rest of us to do that. Dak played poorly because the players around him sucked. Simple as that.

Why would I say Dak wasn't good without acknowledging why he wasn't good lol? That makes zero sense. And yes it is excuse making for Dak. Its a excuse. A legit one. Zeke sucked today. His offensive line run blocking sucked too. You can tell both sides of the narrative. Its not as black and white as you want it to be. When someone sucks there's normally a reason for it.

Dak made enough bad plays today without the effects of the OL that it's a bit crazy to me to sit here and suggest that Dak was bad BECAUSE everyone else sucked around him. No, Dak played poorly because at times, Dak played poorly. Yes, there were times that the OL totally failed him. Yes, there were times when the WRs failed him. But there were enough times where Dak failed the offense to the point that I don't think we can make Dak out to be some victim here who would have played great if the OL had played better.

I mean it wasn't the OL that forced him to make that god awful throw before the half that resulted in an interception and cost them points before the half. It wasn't the OL that forced him to whiff on an easy pass to Wilson later in the game on a crucial third down throw. It wasn't the OL that caused him to miss Brown wide open on a crossing route on another key third down in the 2nd half. All key plays that he botched on his own in a game where things were just not working. I expect my elite QB to make those plays in a game where the team needs someone to make a play for them.

Offensive line was an absolute embarrassment. Seems like McGovern and Biadasz played better than the other 3, and that’s really sad. It’s hard to win any game when there are multiple defenders in the backfield within 1 second of the snap
..thats my blame. Dak was under pressure probably 70% of passing time. Fix the damn OL.

Not sure I’ve seen our oline play worse since that Atlanta game a few years back when they almost set a sack record against Dak. Kellen and Dak are going to have to scheme something for them to help the with the problems on the line.

I primarily start my blame game with the OIine. Hard for a QB to get into a rhythm with his offense when he constantly has guys in his face or has to scramble. Running game wasn't doing much either.

We suddenly have an Oline problem. Aikman, during the game, made mention of Dallas having "one of the best Olines in the NFL" and I almost spit out my drink. Really Aikman? o_O haha

It doesn't have to be either/or here. I know that's difficult for fans like yourself but the most likely answer for today was that Dak stunk, so did the OL, the WRs dropped too many balls, Moore didn't have a great game plan.

KC had the 30th ranked defense according to Football Outsiders. It was an embarrassing performance by the OC, QB, WRs, OL and just about everyone. Trying to give Moore and Dak a pass for today.............. LOL.
Homer glasses hide a lot for some.

Dude I’ve explained this to you a million times. Your brain don’t know what to do with the words it reads.

Go watch a video. A lot of people are visual learners. It’s ok.

Did I understand your words when you said you didnt like Parsons because he didnt affect the passing game? How about those 3 sacks tonight? Was that affecting the passing game? LOL

Never seen a guy get more things wrong then you do. Its ridiculous how much you get wrong. Horribly wrong. Easy stuff too. You just whiff on it completely.

I said Parsons has to impact the passing game to validate the pick.

He has done that.. Great..

He also got two TOs in scoring territory for himself, but came away with FGs.. He also sucked against Denver when pass blocking wasn’t elite..
