Dak Prescott is becoming Romo

Romo_To_Dez · Oct 7, 2019

Changing QBs but keeping Garrett as coach will always have this team in the same spot of failure. At this point I don't believe that Garrett could get past the divisional round with Mahomes. Because he would find a way to mess it up somehow with his bad coaching decisions.

Dak is just in his 4th season while Romo is already retired. Comparing finished Romo to Dak is silly but looking at the first 4 years in both of their careers Dak is just as good as Romo if not better.

By the way this myth that Dak has been loaded with talent is silly. Dak had a team that was 4-12 the year before with the same players minus him and Zeke. OL was good.... key word, was. Not only that he doesn't even have the same receivers from his first 2 years. Witten coming back or he wouldn't even have the same TEs and yet Dak still wins. Doesn't mean he isn't going to win every game but this myth needs to stop. Dak helps his players just like they help him

I guess all of the "If Romo has this team." takes are saying that Romo can only ever win a Superbowl if he had the so called "perfect team" around him that Dak has had. Yet, couldn't get it done before with the other teams he had around him? Dak still gets criticized for needing help, even while saying that Romo was great enough to win a Superbowl but only if he receives the proper amount of the same type of help that Dak has.

It's not garbage time when the other team is still blitzing and trying to stop the offense. You silly fools with these garbage time crap is just moving the post on the stupid Dak can't throw 200 yards.

This goes for all you fools, garbage time is when the game is out of hand and the winning team goes prevent defense to prevent big plays. GB didn't do that and that's why Dak hit Cooper on that big TD play.

NFL is a tough, intense sport. When a team is up by 3-4 scores it's common and instinctive to relax a little. Which means the other team has a better chance to score.

It took them seven drives to get 3 points. Every QB will have some games like that during a long career, but that wasn't the norm with any "franchise" QB not named Quincy.

Defense didn't throw those picks.

Yes outside of those picks, the defense played great!

The score was 31-3, old man. It's time to take your meds and go to bed... it was garbage time.

You seem like a cool dude to hang out with and have a beer.

*End of sarcasm.

Dak says the same thing after each loss....."We" and "We'll get better."

I hate Garrett but he had no choice the defense put him in a position he had to wing it

And I don’t like it. I feel like I’ve already seen this career played out. Putting up good yardage and losing. Then when we lose people will say well Dak didn’t have a good team around him. I just don’t know what to think anymore with this team. We’re having game losing mistakes by our best players, Witten,Elliott, Cooper, Dak. Thats the sign of a team that’s full of themselve. I actually want to be more conservative and run the football. We abandoned the run after the first drive which is disgustin. We just paid an RB 90 million dollars and don’t even use him. This coaching staff is so bad.

Dak and Romo are nothing alike. Romo kept the team punching above its weight. Would you say Dak is making the most of the cast of pro talent around him?

And yes, the circle is now complete. I guess us critics may now adopt the term "Realists", which was coined by the never-Romo crowd. Karma be thy name

The poor starts and atrocious defense is eerily similar to the Romo years. I swear Garrett is going to ruin yet another core of players.

This^

How many HCs get multiple core player group, and haven't won much in the playoffs?

Dak brings it at the end of games, and playoff games. He's not that after a couple tough losses. I trust him with ball at the end of the game

You mean the end of games as current as last week knowing his team had no timeouts and taking yet another needless sack.

Actually what he needs is an accurate arm. #4 sucks as a QB, he's a stud athlete no doubt, should probably be playing TE, but as an NFL QB he's garbage when it matters. His throws are almost always behind open receivers, he's been like that since he came in the league. Yes, he's had the occasional "dime", but even a blind squirrel finds a nut every now and then.

Inaccurate QBs don't have as high a completion percentage as Dak. Not only that your statement that he's garbage when it matters most it the most ridiculous statement yet. Even some of his biggest haters will say Dak plays well in clutch moments, especially at the end of games.

Mmm bingo. Couldn't have said it better

Most times that is correct but did you see that yesterday with GB? No you didn't, GB was still going all out until the very end. That's not garbage time stat padding.

Any team that hands GB multiple turnovers is probably going to lose.

Romo was his offense, he made the players better.

Dak is a jag, made better by the talent around him. And now we know why linehan kept the gameplan simple.

America's Cowboy · Oct 7, 2019

Dak can't win the big games? Totally untrue. Bunch of whiners.

SultanOfSix · Oct 7, 2019

LOL. No.

I always associated the team with Romo. I think most people did too. The team lived and died with Romo. I don’t think the same with Dak.

Romo had some historically bad defenses and offensive lines, and was practically under bad coaching and management for most of his career (outside of Parcells). Dak is simply not as accurate nor as cerebral as Romo. He’s just more careful with the ball and has to be because of these factors.

shabazz · Oct 7, 2019

The Legend of Rayne Dakota 2019 version was propped up by beating teams that are a collective 2-12.......let that sink in

Agree but what do accuracy and a sweet Cerebellum have to do with playing the Quarterback position?
