That’s a good overall assessment. We no doubt had a good offense in 2021. But we also did not win a playoff game with that same offense. Isn’t that the bottom line?

Offense was just not same after Dak's and Zeke's injuries.

And defense was always soft vs run.

If it matters, which it does not.

What has being the stats champion brought to Dallas? 20 years from now people will remember that Matthew Stafford and the Rams won super bowl 56. No one will remember who had the #1 offense that season because it's a meaningless garbage stat. Did Jameis Winston and Tampa Bay win anything by him being the #1 overall QB in 2019?

But I get it - when you don't have anything else to hang your hat on you have to roll with junk like this to prop yourself up.
Yet, you keep watching them, don't you Acr?

Garbage time stats and beating up on terrible teams. When we play +500 teams Dak ***** the bed without an elite running game.

Stats don't tell the whole story. The Arizona game did.
Dak was outclassed by the Cardinals and Kyler Murray when the games got real. The playoff game had to be played , but everyone knew that the Cowboys would lose. To deny this would be silly. Eventually Cowboys players knew they would lose vs the 49 'ers when they took the field and it showed.
The Cowboys will continue to waste years and talent as long as Dak(Jason Garrett 2.0) is under center.

Garbage time refers to games that are not closely contested.

Of Dak's 5 games with the most passing yards, all but 1 were within 7 points.

Of Dak's 5 games with the least passing yards, all but 1 had points differentials of greater than 7 points.

100% true all factual. those saying garbage time as if we were out of it and teams let up.that didn't happen in any game but Denver from memory..

Dak had a lot to do with all the negative stuff and the positive stuff he did was against nst lesser teams. :)

So let me get this straight before i start pulling out actual numbers to prove you wrong...

Everything Dak does positive, is ONLY against lesser teams, correct??? You're saying he's NEVER had good games against good teams, am i right?? I just wanted to make sure this is what you're saying and sticking to....

What pisses me off is nobody gives Jimmy G credit. He isn't a great QB but he makes enough solid throws to move the chains. He isn't going to carry a team but he will contribute to a victory. Dak is similar but he doesn't make those big 3rd down conversions and is inconsistent. He fools people by throwing for 500 yards against the WFT where Jimmy G will just win games with 225 yds passing.

Were people fooled when Dak put up 400 yards on the Superbowl Bucs but the defenselet Brady drive in fg range under a minute???

Or were people fooled when that same WFT that Dak put up 500 on, beat Brady and the Bucs????

Which one fooled them the most?

You sure were fooled! The Cowboys defense got Dak 4 turnovers and had Daks converted them into TDs instead of settling for FGs maybe they win. Moving up and down the field between the 20s is Daks favorite thing to do.
