Can you give me an example of this? like few post that you feel this way about, seriously see this said all the time but I must be missing the moving of goal post
No problem, im glad you asked. Here's what I mean by "goal post moving".
1. Week one, Dak definitely didn't play well, no question.... and there were a few of his haters that are actually Cowboys fans that hopped on Dak thread after thread and post after post claiming that "GOOD quarterbacks are able to lead their team to more than 3 points, there is absolutely no excuse for that".
- Brady, who is a great quarterback was held to 3 points by a horrible, rebuilding team, who traded their best player and already gave up on the season and who's ran by a interim head coach . Now the same Dak haters barely responded and conveniently failed to touch on this topic AND one of those people today said "yeah it happens, no big deal". But they made it a big deal when it happened to Dak.
2. We all supported Rush for the solid job he's done in Daks absence. Rush was solid but limited, and thats ok!! In victory, Rush would pass for 100 yards and he would hailed, celebrated, then we saw a thousand threads crappin on Dak's name like Dak was some 3rd string backup.
- Dak comes in to play his 2nd game in 9 months after missing a month due to to hand injury and plays a solid game, making throws Rush isn't capable of making, starts of with expected rust in his game and finishes solid with over 200 yards. Then you had those same Dak haters saying "he didn't play well".... "he played a bad Lions team", etc. But those same Lions came into 3 points of beating the (6-0) Eagles, came into 4 points of beating the (5-1) Vikings, and came into 3 points of beating the (4-3) Seahawks. DAK came in and led us to an 18 point victory over the Lions, but they conveniently leave that part out too.
3. Dak owns the NFCE. Dak gets criticized for his AND the Cowboys success for beating NFCE teams as if thats the only reason he's a good quarterback. Rush came in and did a solid performances against the Giants and Commanders, the same thing Dak would have done if healthy.
- Rodgers loss to the Giants and Commanders and not a peep.
All in all... these are just a couple examples and I can go on and on. Cooper Rush really won me over and I feel very confident if Dak ever goes down again....
But for those same haters that gave Rush credit for less production in a win.... then Dak comes in and win with more production and they say he didn't play well.... its truly hilarious.
Lastly, there were Cowboys fans aka (Dak haters) that were angry that Dak led the Cowboys to a win yesterday. Picture that!!
