At some point, Dak has to take a look in the mirror!

The best thing ANY quarterback including Prescott should do is avoid this toxic franchise. Dak should have never signed. A handful of teams would have grabbed in. Dallas is unserious and unaware of how to build teams.

I guess you don't give a damn about the checks Jerry has signed to make this team better. You don't have to believe his words but the checks he's signed says a great deal. He wants to win. I know in the NFL you can't pay for results. The people you pay have to come through to get those results. So don't blame Jerry.
His failures to withhold the money that could improve his team tend to outweigh his promises to participate in free agency. The Dallas players have unfortunately lost confidence in his willingness to provide the needed funds to spend what it takes to have a contending team this year. It shows in their play. Jerry's "all in" comments did absolutely nothing to inspire confidence in him. I blame him plenty for the outright lies that he offers. He could have had Derrick Henry, who was 100% willing to play for this team. He chose to lie about not being able to afford him. That's your hero.

Seems a shame that Dak started out his career with such a great attitude, but gradually became a greedy, self-promoting jerk, instead. :angry:
Really? Projection much? Dak has been the same. That’s one of his best attributes is his demeanor. But do you

You should write him love letters . . . I'm pretty sure I wouldn't care to. I admired him once, but that's in the past. ;)

Sure, lets take a look at that record - 2-5 in playoff games, the worst in NFL history.
He has led the offense to at least 30 points in 2 of those losses and at least 22 points in one other if I'm not mistaken. At some point it might be prudent to hold the other side of the ball accountable. I mean Mahomes threw for like 190 yards and 2 picks against the Niners on Sunday.. yet his team won by 10. How is that possible? Oh yeah.. his defense picked off Purdy three times and shut the Niner offense down. I know I am screaming into the wind, but this is the ultimate team game. Continually blaming one player for losses and crediting one player for wins is simply brain dead. No such thing has ever happened in football and never will.

When teams continue to work individual drills vs team drills this late in the season, that is an indicator to me that we have a severe like of talent on this roster.

Or just maybe we have too many starting rookies and 2nd year players, undrafted players, has been players, injured players or veteran days off so we can not practice as a team.

Either way, not practicing as a team, in a team sport, has to be one of the dumbest things I have ever heard of.

I didn't see you object to crediting winning regular seasons records to dak.

I don't do either. I always credit the team for wins and the team for losses. The only exception I might make would be if one player committed a boatload of turnovers or penalties. Or threw multiple pick sixes late in the game the way Romo did that one game against Detroit. Other than that.. teams win.. teams lose.. Always had been that way and always will be. Yes it's true that the QB is the ONE player on the field who can single handedly lose a game for his team. But there is NO position that can single handedly win one.

I wasn't aware that they aren't practicing, although, I'm thinking the number of injuries may have something to do with it. I'm guessing that Mike McCarthy has joined the players in their loss of enthusiasm lately, since he's eventually destined to be given the old heave-ho at season's end.

Maybe the time off might provide those injured players an opportunity to recover what's left of their health, if any exists, at all. I hate to see this happening, just like most fans. Here's hoping we'll get our injuries healed and get to practice, before the 49ers contest gets much closer.

What i am saying is that someone just noted daks regular season record. Then someone noted daks playoff record.

Which one did you opt to reply to to make a point?

Honestly I did not read the one with the regular season record in it. I don't read every post in a thread.. just the ones that pique my interest.

What difference does it make. QB's don't play by themselves.

Yeah I don't know when we started counting won-loss records only for QBs. I don't recall it being that way when I was comin up in the 70's and even the 80's. Wins and losses were always about team. With acknowledgement that a player playing well could contribute to a win and a player playing poorly could do the opposite.. but I just don't remember seeing a lot of graphics with "So and so is 7-1 as a starter." Back in the day. Maybe they did it and I just didn't notice? No matter when they started it, it was stupid then and it's stupid now.

It is really just an attempt to help women understand and follow football. They don't understand the game, but might be able to follow a QB or 2. It has exposed a lot of men who think they understand the game.

Jerry is the one who needs to look at himself in the mirror ........ Dak is a symptom ........ Jerry is the disease.

Everyone remembers Marino but very few others from that team that never won a super bowl.
