The worst part is there is no hope going forward

This team is still young I think it is absurd people dont think this team should be right back in it next year, need a new OC RG and another RB, I think Cox helps a bunch draft more young fast players on D. Need a future plan at LT maybe it is Steele

The NFL is essentially about remaining competitive until you can bring it all together and have things fall your way one year. Sucking for the sake of maybe being good years from now is a horrible idea.

Unless you can sit here and tell me we won’t hear a peep from you while winning 20 total games between now and 2025, I really don’t want to hear it. Youre just angry and lashing out, and will be doing the same when Dak is no longer here to be angry at. You’ll have the audacity to complain about going 5-12 in 2024 with some jouneyman QB.


I’m sorry but teams don’t win anything by paying Dak’s 40 million a year. Move along.

You can disagree with me but I’ll just be right.. Again…


The Dak delusionals watched him do squat as we waste a season and go 1 and done.

Dak is better than Car, Rodgers is almost 40 and Wilson just had the worst year of his career.

Dak just choked when it mattered most. Blame whatever you want, the entire team rolled over but it didn't excuse Dak choking when it mattered. A 40 million dollar QB choking in the playoffs.

Does the O-line need some repair? Yes. Does the defense need work? Yes. Do other things need to happen? yes. Does Dak need to either get his head out of his butt and play better in big games or get out of the way for someone who will? Yes.

He played scared. He played as if something is going on mentally and it regressed his accuracy and made him question himself. He'd better fix it because he just helped to blow the season.

Dak isn’t better than Carr.


Listen.. I’m not dealing with Dak delusionals today. Blabber about his greatness all you want. I’m done with that crap.

Im right. You’re wrong. Move along or go find Ranching and tell yourselves how good our QB is in a private message.

You’re clueless as to what Dak is. I’m not and I’ve proven that.

Dak is better than Carr by every statistical and accomplishment metric available. It’s not even remotely close.

I get it, you’re angry. I’m upset about the loss too. But we’ve seen how these conversations go, you lash out and then pout and walk away when people start pointing to objective data.

You can think you’re right, it really doesn’t bother me. You can call me a Dak homer as if that’s somehow going to upset me if it makes you feel better. But eventually you’ll calm down and see reason.

And we are 1 and done in the wildcard round with Dak and I disagree with Dak being better than Carr.

The other 2 have actually won super bowls.

A 12-5 season is never a waste, because you had a shot. A waste is cutting or trading a top 10 QB out of spite and not making the playoffs for years after.

And if the Giants can win a Super Bowl with Eli eating up a larger % of their cap than Dak is, we can certainly do so with Dak making what he makes.

And FWIW, his cap hit isn’t $40 million until 2023.

I don’t want to hear about fixing things to make Dak better.

I watched guys with his pay grade perform and make plays with decimated OLines and WRs out.

Dak needs to help Dak. He’s paid to be the answer and he’s constantly a problem.


You know what the answer is for Dak? Take the game out of his hands and put it into a runningbacks hands. That’s what we pay 40 million for.
Well I’m all aboard with a better RB but also means betterOL

Why would we assume we could get the other two, assuming we ignore their ages for a moment?

And again, by no available metric is Carr better than Dak.

I know I’m right. You guys are good with playing with numbers and doing whatever.

What you guys are bad at is watching a football game and comprehending what’s on the screen. You suck at it and I am great at it.

So you keep spinning and doing what you do with Dak’s numbers and production or whatever else you look at to digest your confirmation biased but you are wrong,

The kind of coach that could change the culture is the kind of coach Jerry will not hire. Once again, all roads lead to Jerry. All our major problems: MM as HC, KM as OC, Dak contract, Zeke contract, Lawrence contract, Stephen as top executive, Jerry as GM, all lead back to one guy.

I just have no idea where this team goes from here and the thought of starting this whole process over just makes me sick to my stomach.

They can’t just say this is good enough and if we clean up mistakes all will be well.

Lining up and doing the same thing over and over is just not the way and I think they have to fire McCarthy.

He’s been here 2 seasons and he was awful in year 1 and year 2 he beat a bunch of bad teams and nobody had an answer for the 2 high safeties. Also the lack of Pollard and playing Zeke was just criminal.

Dallas needs a culture change and they need a new face for this franchise right now but I know management believes in continuity and they get continuous results.

I just don’t know what they can do outside of a coaching change to give any hope to the fans.

Yep all true.
And you didn't even mention all the factors in their favor THIS year but now facing the opposite going forward.
Cap
Strength of schedule
Extremely poor division possibly improving(okay, this may or may not be true, lol)
Free Agency
Overall Team Healthy/injury luck

These are major factors that were all a net positive THIS year

Even the biggest of homers should be able to see how this year was another squandered opportunity based on these things.

The uncertainty of the variables here does not project to a very positive foreseeable future

But hey,
just another opinion

We knew this, though. They blew the cheap QB (and great OL) window with Jerry's pet Garrett. It was always going to be much harder with the OL getting older and Zeke and Dak making huge money.

Their only chance was to knock it out of the park with the draft, which to be fair they've done very well at the last two years. But they'll have to keep it going the next couple of years, and that's tough to do year after year.

How was his metric yesterday? 1 TD thrown, 1 interception. A rating of 69.3. His completion percentage for that game was a full 10% lower than his normal average. That's objective data. In the biggest game of the season, he choked objectively.

Have fun being clueless and delusional.

I’ll just stay over here being right.

Ok, we don’t pay Prescott and he walks. We win 4-5 games this year, then what?
You draft or sign another QB.

The problem is not only signing Dak but believing we needed to sign and over pay Elliott for support and then feeling need to pursue Cooper for 100 million and draft capital.

A 40 million QB shouldn’t need all of this supporting cast.

So let’s assume we did jet Dak walk. We draft and rebuild. We missed the playoffs for two years anyway and another early exit could have missed again.

What could we have built with those picks and all of that Cap space. It’s an unknown but is it necessarily worse than the current results?

Since 2000, 14 QBs that were objectively worse than Dak Prescott have made it to the Super Bowl. That’s not including Eli Manning and Matt Ryan, who only on their absolute best days from their best seasons would be regarded as better.

It’s complete nonsense that you can’t win the NFC and make the SB with Dak Prescott. Rex Grossman, Jake Delhomme, Nick Foles and Kerry Collins all did that for gods sake.

What were those (mostly) Super Bowl losers getting paid? Were any of them near the highest paid salary in the league? I think your comparison here undermines your support of Dak.

Even the two above average QBs you mention- first off it's arguable that Dak is better or even as good as either of them, considering their playoff successes. Secondly- the one who actually won (Eli) did so off the back of monster defenses.

But the main point here is you're comparing him to bus drivers and saying you can win with a bus driver... but he's not paid to be a bus driver.

He doesn’t get it. All he can comprehend is some meaningless stats. If he watches a game it becomes very confusing because these guys don’t know squat about actual football.


Stats Prescott has thrown them for a loop when it’s clear as day what he is as a player but it just doesn’t add up with those darn numbers.
