And it was a perfect pass between the 8 and 5. Bloke.
Perfect pass? No, it was low and that’s why brown isn’t still running the route on that play, he’s going to the ground and that just not debatable. Sorry but it may have been catchable but it was also a duck that changed its spin bc it was tipped.

It was a perfect pass between the numbers. He was going down because defenders were around him and Dak threw it where it had to go. Any NFL WR will tell you that it should’ve easily been caught. The fact you can’t admit that shows you have a hate agenda going on.

One pick was the result of a guy tugging at his throwing shoulder as he let the ball go and the other Brown played volleyball with. Dak had a very good game.. His teammates let him down. He will never say it, but any rational fan saw it. These delusional morons trying to spin it as a bad game are again trying to convince themselves that they're right. Dak was on point that entire game. His only mistake continues to be trusting his receivers.. and they keep letting him down.

Generally, on this post and on others, I'm in agreement with you. I would reinforce the comments about the two ints, it was clearly shown on the television that on the first int Dak's arm was hit just as he threw. It was also clear that the ball's trajectory showed it was short of where the pass was intended, though it appeared to me that it would have been incomplete if Dak's arm hadn't been hit, Schultz either ran the route incorrectly or Dak threw it too far to the sideline. Regardless, an incomplete pass would not have been so damaging to the drive than an int.

And on the last int Dak threw the ball low and away from Brown, which was a smart throw, because high throws are more likely to bounce up and be intercepted. I would also note the intercepting player made a pretty difficult catch, most of the times the ball hits the ground if not caught. Just a very good catch by the defender on a throw that should have been caught by Brown.

If Dak makes a very poor throw, he's due for all the criticism he receives, but if there are mitigating circumstances, such as the ball being tipped, Dak being hit as he throws, etc. those facts should also be noted. Most times the Dak haters just blithely ignore that.

In other words, be fair, take the entire play into consideration, not just the actual int....

Apparently an attempt at trolling since all throws on the move come off one foot and Dak is one of the 2 or 3 best I've ever seen at it. If Dak stands there in the pocket and tries to make that throw the DE who Tyron was battling on the loop either clobbers him, slaps the ball out of his hands or the ball bounces off the leaping defender's chest. The movement created a throwing lane when there wasn't one.

Yea, I’m lost at the “backyard football” post like Dak did something wrong for evading a sack and throwing a strike to Noah that would’ve given us a 1st down.

When there’s a pass rusher bearing down on you a QB is supposed to scramble and likely will have to throw off platform.

Regardless - the throw was on the money and hit Noah in the hands.

I’m not sure the point of your post here.
if you dont know the point I canna hold your hand as we decipher it.

The fact so many feel the need to defend Dak at all costs tells you how much Dak is not a franchise QB.

Me fellow frustrated fellows and bland men (a good thing):
I took time from me prank calls and dominos tournament to revisit a highlights video of Cowboys vs. Jags.

Upon further review, Dak turned in a good to very good game. It is clear to see. Passes to Lamb, Brown and even Sequel Elliott made him a highlight reel in itself.

Dak's stats, 23-30/256 yards (save 2 INTs) against the jags are impressive.

Looked crisp. Tough, bulls headfirst into a defensive wall close to a TD. Off the field he is a role model.

Thus, on second look, in the rumination of a vacuous mind, I extend an olive loaf to the Dak lovers, who loyally bear the slings and feathers of the many Dak skeptics. They exemplifiy fealty of true fans, some of whom see the star and withhold valid complaint.

But on the same token, as Dak impressed this keen eye I thought to meself, but what about crunch time.
That, me hale, misguided Dak lovers, is what worries me.

Me dudes and the ambiguous, I and the Dak detractors need to see a leadership and decisiveness come crunch time.

Mateys, on Sunday, a holy day, I saw Dak throwing TDs at each end of the end zone, running for a first down and bulling his way near the end zone.
But short.
I respect Dak, hale men, but against the Egirls I expect an "A" game.

If he plays a good game yet doesn't take his team over the line, it is fair to question Dak's cumulative gain to the Cowboys.
It is tha simple. Get over into tha end zone now and in tha playoffs.

So you are saying the Dak turds are wrong again? Never would guessed that.

I don’t know if you’re trying to have some kind of
character act or if this is actually how you talk.

I’m not trying to be rude - I literally don’t understand what you’re saying.

Lol…hey we all grow and learn.
We're supposed to for sure....when it comes to the Cowboys? Ehhh lol….
Same. I was completely behind Campo until late in his third season when he had fourth and a foot against SF to win the game but opted for the long FG instead. Only then was I done.
haha I’m mad that I remember that. Damn….

The view from the all 22 does allow for a broader perspective, and you are correct with a lot of stupidity, missed assignments.
Not just Daks fault, but he is deserving of due criticism just as much as others need to be, not just on offense, the entire team.
I don’t disagree. I’ll even go further….the issue I have is I feel everyone was in position to fail. Especially the skilled players. Some of those runs it’s like they were meant for the backs to fail. The one formation where no backs are in the backfield? Then Pollard motions back into the backfield? It’s just stupid. It’s all game. I think Dak played well but one thing I will say is he does hold on to the ball too long at times.

I'm pretty sure that he was better than Lawrence who fumbled at the end of regulation and went 3 and out in overtime. If Brown catches that last pass they probably would have won the game.
That’s what stinks. If that happens and we get the DPI on Lamb in Green Bay, team is 12-2 and playing for the one seed tomorrow

You out yourself as clueless.
Any conventional throw begins with two TWO feet planted.
Yes, the throw does depend on torque and power from one foot.

But throwing off one foot with the other off the ground while moving is something you'd do at your mens touch football game, not the pros.
Blomey, learn basics at least.:rolleyes:

Witten was a rare bird indeed. People who watched him struggle as an older player those last few years and use that to paint the picture of the player he was simply don't get it. That dude was a hoss before Father Time got him. I am saddened every time I think of how badly the Cowboys wasted his career. That guy deserved at least a coupla rings before he hung 'em up.
Why don't you marry Witten while we watch THE game Saturday?

Moores failures have always been staying with what is already working well, he struggles with conservatism and designs a game plan based on homerun hits being used in the worst times during game.
It's fine to be aggressive most of the game, but there are moments when a more dialed down script is Moore appropriate.

Mahones tends to disagree, but I understand the generalization in the context.
Two feet planted is great if you have the time, but can snap off both your legs when the pocket collapses.
Todays QBs that are entering post season play have a lot in common.

Yes, old fellow, tha is why I hate to see Dak go long. He does not have spidey sence on coverages.
Dak is at home with short passes.
Dak is lost without the shorter pass and he should stick with tha.
