"at one point" - who cares? You don't play points in games you play the ENTIRE GAME. He has to be done.

The hard thing is that Dak is 30 and on the tail end of his 7th season.. there isn't going to be dramatic improvement from here.

What you see.. is what you are going to get.

We have a slightly above average bus driving QB that is also capable of amazing plays and disastrous plays. He is Kirk Cousins, he is a poor version of Alex Smith.

Dak is good enough to steer a team to a SB.. IF you understand what he is and is not. Unfortunately our coaches think he is a 40M 'elite QB' that they can ride to victory. They continue to want to put the ball in his hands at key moments and think that Dak will produce like Mahomes and Allen or Brady and Rodgers..

So is the issue Dak or is the issue the coaching. Dak has shown us time and time again what he is.. is it his fault the coaches refuse to believe it?
I think you hit the nail on the head. The coaches and front office think Prescott is something he isn't. They think he's a Josh Allen type playmaker when as you mention, he's a poor man's Alex Smith without the wheels. So they need to limit his touches. No more than 25 throws for starters and make them basic easy throws.

He also has a trash o line. No use having a ferrari if you don't have any gas.

cowboys have the worst pass rush win rate in the league. elite qbs are supposed to overcome shortcomings, yeah?

and both tds were absolute dimes.

I can’t believe how bi-polar this performance was, snd Im sick of needing to go through the mental exercises of analyzing his play. This loss really deflated me

Yep, the way Dak let those guys score 40. Cant believe it. He needs to work on that. :muttley:

The Cowboys D has provided a ton of turnovers this season and last in addition to great field position on many occasions helping out the offense. Help comes in many forms.

Further, I would much rather have the Cowboys O line than the wall paper line over at the chargers. Bosa has missed most of the season as well.

For Dak this would be making excuses so why is it not for Herbert?

Joe Burrow was the most sacked QB in the league last year and he got the Bengals to the Super Bowl. Just saying.

From now on, each game will factor into it 2 Dak INTs because...well...that's just what the heck is up you feelin' me dawgs? That be the way it is. There is no escape. We get our 2 INTs. You're killing me, Peety!
