I see Quinn alot, but I feel he was essentially non-existent for tonight's game and the Packers game?

Witten, if I remember correctly, has had some bad and ill-timed drops, plus the fumble.

I'd honestly say La'el is probably the only player who hasn't underperformed.

Quinn is the only one that comes to mind for me.
I didn’t need to see his horsey ride celebration while were still getting our but kicked. At least wait until you get their O off the field. The next pass after his sack was off the mark or they get a 1st down and his dumb little horsey ride was all for knot.

Do players realize how stupid they look when they celebrate like idiots while their losing by 2 touchdowns.

Besides the ones that everyone mentioned, I don’t think heath has underperformed.... he’s performing exactly where I expected. He’s an average player with a high effort, and it is what it is.

I think out backup running back is prolly doing what we expected as well.

For a team that didn’t have a first round pick and missed out on the Taco pick.....it was very important for guys to step up. We were suppose to get better simply getting a year older and they are regressing. It’s a product of the culture around here. Garrett will get blamed for it and he has some part in it but it’s the culture Jerry has built and it’s exactly they are suffering the same fate as the Romo, Witten, Ware teams use to face. New cast same problems. Same GM/Owner though. And they will eventually fire Garrett and the same problems will present with the new head coach.

Heath hasn’t underperformed he’s just not as noticeable versus everyone else around him is stinking it up.

To me Dak. Cooper. Collins, Tyron, Gallup, Cobb, Devin Smith, Frederick, Witten, Zach have all performed well. On defense I can barely name names. I think J. Lewis when he has had a shot has stood out and obviously Quinn....otherwise they all suck. Lawrence and Elliot are the biggest thieves I've ever seen. LVE and Jaylon are the biggest disappointments for me. Non-difference makers across the board....

10 Pts vs the Saints.
Packers up 31-3 before the above woke up in garbage time?
3 FG vs the 0-4 Jets in 3 Q of football.
Man send me some of the stuff you're drinking......

Going into this season Dak was billed as a "Top 5" QB deserving top 5 pay. He hasnt played at this level so he's under performed?

Pre-injury La'el Collins and Robert Quinn. Maybe Amari.

I haven't even seen Jamize Olawale in a minute and I was rooting for us to use him more in this offense.

Why have a fullback and not use him? Special Teams is not good enough to waste a roster position. Jamize, is a good player, and a better coached team would make good use of him.

Quinn gets my only vote, he has not been indoctrinated with the laissez-faire culture of this team. Notice Zeke and others that come in fresh, crisp, and excited. They soon become lethargic drones that mimic, progress, good coach, love Jerry, and do better.

He wants to get paid so he's motivated. No issue with that at all. Bottom line is if he ends up with 12 to 15 sacks he will be elsewhere. No other person on Defense is playing as well as they did last year. PS. Darnold is a good QB. Strong arm, good touch and smart. In 3 years (baring injury) he will be at top 5 qb in the league.

Who hasn't underperformed? That question could be asked of the whole league. Lots of great players are underperforming this season. Look at Pat Mahomes and his Chiefs or Jared Goff and his Rams. It's not unique to just the Cowboys. It's no excuse for how we finish this season. We just have to get it together and stop shooting ourselves in the foot. All three games we lost are because we beat ourselves, not because our opponent beat us by being the better team. I bet the Chiefs or Rams pick themselves up and still make the playoffs and we can too.

As good as Darnold is, we should not be having this conversation on this morning.
Other teams, gain a player and win against Dallas. Other teams, lose a player, and win against Dallas. There's a bad smell in Texas, and the O'Brien has his team smelling good.

I think our longsnapper and punter haven't underperformed. In fact, they might be going above and beyond given how much work the offense is giving them.
