When asked by Skip, what letter grade he would rate himself. Dak said, "I give myself a "C" It was average as can be." It has to be better then that. (Me too) Somebody has to let him know he was a MVP for 8 games.

When asked by Shannon, What does a Dak friendly offense mean to you? Dak said, "I am not sure what that means" (Me too) That BS term has no substance

Well there you have it. The fan base is delusional yet Dak is grounded in reality. The Dak lovers hang their hats on "Dak Friendly" and Dak doesn't even know what that means.

I'll tell you right now I wholeheartedly agree with him. Thank goodness he is grounded. There's still hope for him to improve since he recognizes the truth.

I thought Dak has always been level headed this doesn't surprise me. I don't remember the interviewed name but he said
something like last year was Dak's best learning season he grew from that.
I agree it was a tough year for Dak but its reasonable to assume he'll return to higher rankings and wins this year. due to the reinforced Oline.
Even with the tough division we're in.

NFC East is a great division a couple of bad games here and there can eliminate any team in the division. Dak has a great skill set he needs to run more planned runs only problem with that is risk of injury. Zeke really is the key to success on offense he is the best RB we have had since Emmett he may be as good as Emmitt. What really needs to happen is the defense needs to become more consistent they were good at times last season and totally choked at times. If the defense is better this season we will be in the playoffs if they are worse there is always next season.

Even though Daks tool bag has new pieces a few are going to change the character of our offense.
[1] Jamize Olawale I tend to forget about him but he brings some interesting skills to FB.
[2] Tavon Austin I dont think we'll see a lot of loaded box against us when his on the field.
Dak Friendly is tools to use

I really hope we start using the FB position again When properly done a fullback can really help the offense bring back Moose

Rookie season was an A last season was an F C is about right over 2 years. Another F and he needs to be outa here

An F last season, isn't that a bit harsh? I know he struggled the last half but the whole team was a mess. I am not a Dak homer by any means but he weathered the storm last season while not looking abysmal.

This upcoming season should tell us a lot........

I thought he would play better than he did Was disappointed with his lack of accuracy at times and lack of production for over 5 games

Well if Dak gets an F, then Zeke too gets an F for averaging 4.1 ypc. And oh ya, the great Wentz (who Dak haters worship), gets an F for his rookie season (compared to Dak's 2017 season).

I strongly feel that the OL's failures in providing adequate pass protection last year was a huge part of our problems. It adversely affected Dak, to be sure. Zeke was also adversely affected by his suspension and the stress that followed. The defense was inconsistent as well, largely due to the lack of depth.

I'm expecting better performances by both our offense and defense this year. To me, this serves notice that our expectations should be adjusted with the arrow pointing up. Depth on both sides of the ball has greatly improved. Bigger expectations are justified by greater overall talent as well, imho.

No I do not if all failures were on Romo all failures are on Dak there are no 2 sides to the story

cowpolk come on, all failures were never on Romo and that was never said by a reasonable fan.
Romo in his prime would have dazzled with this current team
in a few more years Dakota will warrant the QB contract he's gona receive.
