I didn't address Detroit not because you might be right but because I don't know.
I wouldn't even say these players too
Well I do.. there has been a multitude of "Dak can't beat good teams" posts on this site for the last 4-5 years. Therefore by definition any time the Cowboys win against a team those people are declaring those team "not good." It aint rocket surgery. People bend over backwards twisting facts around trying to be right no matter how much evidence is presented to show they're wrong. The bottom line is all our losses aint because of Dak and neither are all our wins. It's about the team. Every body plays a part.. Yes the QB plays the biggest part, that's why he gets the biggest paycheck. But no matter how much they pay a guy he aint never gonna go out there and play 1 on 11. I just wish we could quit acting like he does. It's really annoying.
I have to admit I'm a little confused. I rarely see you jump right on others for credit, but VERY willing to defned the losses. Yes...you have your caveat there...I see it. But not in direct response to the win credit like you do for blame.
You put Dak on the Chiefs and they are not winning a SB.
Noooooooooooooooooooo. They wouldn't sniff a SB.
To list Dak's wins against good teams would be an exercise in futility since the anti-Dak crowd would always come up with some rationalization for why they don't count. I mean I just mentioned wins against the Lions in 2023 and the Eagles in 2022 and apparently that did nothing for you. So why would I expect any other games to move the needle. Hell we beat the Eagles (another playoff team) last season and rightfully would have swept them were it not for some HORRIBLE officiating against us in the third quarter of that game at Philly. We also beat the Rams (still another playoff team) last season with Dak at QB. So that's 3 wins vs playoff teams in 2023 and then going back to 2022 wins vs the Giants (twice), the Eagles, the Vikings and of course the Bucs in the playoffs. So that was 5 wins vs playoff teams in 2022. That's a lotta wins vs playoff teams for a guy who can't beat good teams. But I get it, the Cowboys beat those teams with Dak at QB therefore by the pythagorean theorem they cannot be good teams and those could not have been big games. Because CowboysZone says so.
I think you guys are ignoring the Andy Reid factor. Reid is a better coach and has a more innovative and creative offensive mind than McCarthy. He gets the most out of what he has better than any coach I've seen not named Belichick. He might just be capable of doing it with Dak.
Too busy counting his money.
That's gonna take a looooong time.
You mention ONE game in each of the last two years. HARDLY impressive. And you never said HOW it was dak beat them. If you don't want to put in the effort for your claims...fine.
You wish. Dak and a few other QBs could win a SB with that Chiefs team, coaching staff, GM and ownership.
And I never will.. because Dak didn't beat them, the team did. I just rattled off 8 wins against playoff competition and you managed to use modulo arithmetic and convert to two games.
Yeah the concept that ONLY one guy can do a thing in the NFL has always puzzled me. Just like more than one back could have rushed for big yards behind the Dallas line in the 90's or behind the line that Zeke had 7-8 years ago. But would they have had the same success that Emmitt and Zeke had? Probably not.. but in both cases I think they would have done well. Dak is not as good as Mahomes.. so I would not expect him to play as well in the same system as Mahomes.. What I WOULD expect is that Andy Reid would devise an attack that maximizes the things that Dak does well and yes, I think the Chiefs would still win a Super Bowl or two with Dak at QB. Maybe not three. Maybe not back to back.. But I firmly believe they'd have at least one ring with Dak under center.
The Dallas Cowboys are fresh off of their bye week and preparing to travel to Santa Clara for a big NFC matchup against the San Francisco 49ers.
Not ignoring the Andy Reid factor at all.
