A reminder that Dak Prescott is the longest tenured starting QB in the NFL

[KJJ]

An excellent take. We should have beaten them. I was not as confident because they blew us out in the regular season. I know that doesn't always mean much, but it did give me pause.

I thought because they blew us out in the regular season it would make us angry and more determined. I felt we weren’t prepared for that game and took them light. The Cowboys were real good at avenging losses back then but the 49ers simply had a better team.

Why don't the 10 of you "true fans" start your own fourm?

You guys can just love everything Cowboys all day long and ban anyone that dare criticize anything about the Cowboys.

Doesn't that sound like the perfect utopian echo chamber for you 10 true fans?

I'll donate money for it.
LOL!
I'm serious though.

 

[pitt33]

Most of those teams suck.

How about the Eagles?

Or the 49er’s?

The 49ers suck.

The Cowboys approach of sticking with an undrafted loser and a 4th round loser for the past 20 years is the way to go, for sure.

This right here is/has been the #1 problem with this football team.

It’s gospel.

And things will never change in Dallas until they get a true franchise quarterback.

 

[pitt33]

The 49ers suck.

Oh yeah ace?

What’s their record against your Cowboys?

So that's what the powers that be here want. All negative whiners on this board and no positive, true fans here. Makes sense. I guess that's why there's only about 10 true fans here. The rest are trolls and crybabies. I guess either way this site is getting traffic. The worst fanbase in all of professional sports. SAS is right about that!

I don't have a chihuahua. Shepard mix, husky and pitty.

I truly dislike Stephen A. Smith and have said so here many times. That said, I do not believe he is being properly acknowledged within the context of Cowboys fandom and Dak Prescott as the team's quarterback.

I will let Smith speak for himself. His typical Cowboys fan description can be heard in the first 21 seconds here:



It is 100% true that he is talking about Cowboys fans. However, I would ask whether he is discussing:

1. all Cowboys fans? Or
2. highly critical Cowboys fans of their team? Or
3. not so critical Cowboys fans of their team?

In my opinion, Smith is talking primarily about fans matching #3 criteria. Below is what he said last August about the team retaining Prescott about the (then) ongoing contract extension negotiations (44 seconds/video starts at the 14:07 mark):



To be frank, I do not believe Smith is the right example to use as a defense for how the entire fanbase acts. His longstanding sentiment has been that he cannot stand Cowboys fans, who promote Dallas as a very good football team. Additionally, Smith has been straightforward during the past few years as far as his assessment of Prescott being the answer at the quarterback position for the franchise.

Smith sounds far more like fans strongly criticizing Dallas and/or Prescott than fans who do not. Perhaps someone other than Smith would serve as a better analogy.

Aaron Rodgers doesn’t approve of this message

 

[conner01]

Dak is an All Pro. Teams don’t let All Pro’s guy the following season at quarterback.

Runner up for mvp

 

[rambo2]

Oh yeah ace?

There is a reason they drafted in front of us. They sucked and they do suck.

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

Runner up for mvp

Yeah they don't let MVP runner ups go either.

I didn't diss his stats, originally it was said that in 9 years that Dak only has 4,000K yards thrice. Then AC responded to that saying that, that was deceptive. To which, I responded how are facts deceptive. AC could've responded and said that even so, Dak stats are impressive and match Romo's for the most part, and that would've been a valid argument. Heck, one of DAKS best years 2016 he didn't get 4000 yards, and AC could've pointed out that, that was because peak Zeke was on the team. You still can't credit people for things that they haven't accomplished, because they WOULD'VE had more 4000 yard years, because they never accomplished the feat. You can argue that DAK stats are still good, and you BELIEVE it could've been better were it not for injury or the team being run focused on a certain year. The point is, the stats are what they are, set in stone.

Ok so using this argument you don't believe Dak is injury prone then right? Because he's only been hurt 3 times out of 10 years.....

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

You originally said, "You guys will hate him too lol. Everyone loves the backup until the backup comes in…then he’s public enemy number one….to the point you guys forgot you hated Romo but would rather go back to him long as it isn’t Dak."

Risen was pointing out that He liked Romo when he was the backup, and he liked him when he became the starting Quarterback. A lot of people around here remember the local chatter of the back up being kind of good. and Despite Romo losing the first game, the next game he looked good in and people were happy in the quarterback. So Risen liked the backup and continued liking the backup when he came in and played.

Ok Risen liked the backup in 2007. It was never argued but ok you are right.

It's weird...what do we have to show for it?

I don't think "Double Down Jerry" is any reason for awards.

 

[big dog cowboy]

He’s been unchallenged because he’s been better than every QB we’ve brought in.

He's been unchallenged because the Cowboys have never made a serious attempt to bring in any kind of possible replacement.

Exactly what I said the first time.

 

[big dog cowboy]

It will be a day of huge celebration when Dak Prescott is no longer the quarterback of the Dallas Cowboys.

No rueage.

Trey Lance was a former 2nd overall pick, Romo was a former All Pro....that's about it lol.

Let's direct all this hate where it belongs- towards the selfish owner that has put his own pleasure ahead of the Cowboys. It's his toy, and nobody else is playing with it. He wants to play GM more than he wants to win. His fun above the team. He's a curse upon the franchise.
