I didn't like Dak when he first came into the league because he rob Romo the opportunity to win a Superbowl back in 2016. I'm neutral when it come to the Cowboys but I am a fan of Romo and tend to root for the Cowboys when he is playing outside of my team. I did the same for Nick Foles (former Rams) and the Eagles (Hate the Eagles) when he is their QB. Once Wince became starter again this year, I had nothing but absolute hatred for the Shiggles.

Fast forward years later and I actually like Dak. He seem like a pretty well rounded person and doesn't cause any controversy (outside of CZ). He has the heart of a champion but doesn't have the talent to go along with it. I don't see him being anything more than a game manager but since JG is his coach, I can't say with 100% certainly. If I was the Cowboys coach, I would do more roll-out play play with Dak. I would also do a ton of play action since it will make it easier for Dak while Zeke is getting all the attention. Dak is a mobile QB, not a pocket passer, so JG is not playing toward Dak strength. I think someone like Sean Payton or John Harbaugh would use Dak to his fullest potential.

There's ten percent in here who just can't get past the fact that Romo didn't win a Super Bowl by himself in the ultimate team sport so they hold it against him. Of course they never have an answer on why Troy didn't win more Super Bowls in the late 90's with not as good of teams as the early 90's.

Everybody else loves Tony and knows he was hampered by terrible offensive lines early in his career and bad defenses most of his career. Those 8-8 teams were really 4-12 teams and he never got bailed out unlike Brady who has thrown 3 INT's in 3 AFC Championship games and won them all. He is also Jerry Jones biggest regret in that he didn't get him a Super Bowl. A class act who did his job when the organization didn't.

As far as Dak, most everybody respects and admires the kid and his leadership. Where we tend to get nervous is in his accuracy and pocket awareness and thus ultimately his long term success. Then it gets wildly split in here, some hate him, some revere him.

Dak needs everything to go right, including the best coaching he can get. Unfortunately that's where we fall woefully short.

Well that the million dollars question isn't it?

Joking aside, Romo remind me a lot of Rivers, lot of talent but with poor coaching. Neither one has ever had an elite coach in their career. Both HOF QB that would win at least one ring if they had an elite coach.

I think that Chevy truck could have been nice if its body wasn't a Toyota Tundra. Nonetheless I see no reason for Chevy to update their truck when their current Silverado 1500 Z71 (I believe that what its call) is the best looking truck on the road (not counting Raptor).

I dig the Transformer looking headlight, but the front side box frame and the overall body design makes it look small. I have yet to see one in person so I can't fully judge yet. Personally I'll probably end up with a Tundra if the re-design (whenever it comes out) is sexy enough for my taste. Not to mention Chevy commercials makes me want to swallow a lizard.
