He’s certaintley keeping it from drowning. It’s kinda weird....trying get used to him being a big passing number guy. He couldn’t win some of these games before,just passing offense with no run,or good defense. Not a good situation,but good to know he can sling it 400 if necessary.

I’m adapting quite well. I like our newly improved QB. It does take some getting used to, but this is a welcomed change :flagwave:.

No, the defense making it a game plan to stop Zeke is what’s killing the run game. They’re daring Dak to beat them and he’s not only beating them, he’s making them look like a high school defense.
Agreed..

But is this a winning formula for us against the better teams without a running game and our horrific defense?

The offense can only control the offense. They’re currently the #2 offense in the NFL. Who cares if it’s by running or passing? Teams are going all out to stop Zeke running game and Dak is killing them. I mean I’m not sure what you’re trying to say here.

Only on this board would a bunch of brainless Dak slobberers think Dak is the reason for the success of this team. He stands in a pocket all by himself, firing inaccurate passes that require circus catches, all against awful defenses week after week. It’s a joke... just like Dak slobberers themselves.


Those 3 Detroit lineman should get fired for giving Dak so much time

Dak is carrying the team. I’m not bashing him. But is it our best method to win?

Having a dominating running game controlling TOP has been in our best interest to mask our defenses weaknesses keeping them off the field more?

No team can run the ball when the defenses are selling out to stop it. You want to feed the ball to Zeke against 9 man fronts every play?

Just like the Romo years when he used to put the team on his back and make up for a poorly coached team. If Dak goes down they are a 3-4 win team. We saw that in 2015 when Romo went down. Garrett is fraud head coach.

He also leads the league in tomato can defenses faced, but you conveniently leave that out.
And he isn’t in any MVP conversation, this ain’t baseball. The voters don’t care about nerd stats like QBR and EPA.
Too bad you don't hold other QB's to the same standard.

Carson Wentz is the greatest QB in human history even though they play mostly the same opponents and doesn't have the same numbers.

Wentz slobberers are looking worse by the week

Dak is getting it done, at least against the lesser teams. We still don't know if he can carry the team against the better teams. We're headed in the right direction at least.

It’s damn near impossible to win when you give up 150-200 yards rushing.

It’s more likely to win if you stuff the run but allow 400 yards passing. Still hard. But more likely.

that being said. Our running attack with our OL abs Zeke should be more efficient than it has been. Even with defenses focusing on it.

the OL and Zeke aren’t playing well in the running game.

You think this team is more likely to go deeper in the playoffs this year than last year?

I’d agree . The running game is a problem . And we have some issues on OL beginning with health.

I’d argue teams are placing so much focus on stopping our running game because it’s a more proven method to beat us.

Not when the team just cannot run.
