You feel it too?of all the plausible scenarios, i definitely feel like Dak feels Cooper Rush breathing down his neck

I laughed way harder at this than I should have.He seemed pretty confident when he negotiated his contract.
he did look shell shocked. he looks frustrated. he looks like I want to do this, but he can't....he has no power in his throws. he can't set his feet. so he is not trusting himself. then doubt sets in and you lose confidence and that's why he is talking so much....Did you catch the look on Prescott's face after that pick 6 got the WFT back into the game? He looked shell shocked.
He has been off ever since he came back from the calf and was at his worst yet yesterday.
Add to this his comment last week about the offense "we're coming" and he puts that performance out there as proof of that? Talk about all sizzle and no steak. I think the owner had something to do with him saying that.
Now, the national media is on him as the problem on the offense but it isn't that simple, it is multiple problems including the OC, OL and mistakes by the players.
However, that does not stop the possible erosion of self-confidence that could already be happening to him. It is not just arm talent that separates the winners from the also rans, confidence is key.
This isn't about Dak's contract or whether you like him or don't, it is about what should they do to restore that confidence he had because he has had that and has proven that he can play at a high level, a top 5 level. He was even being mentioned a s MVP candidate just weeks ago.
If this team is to make any noise in the playoffs, they cannot have QB play like yesterday and they have to get this fixed before it does become a real confidence issue, if it hasn't already become one. If it has, they have to fix that sooner than later.
And is it just me but in crunch time, do you like Kellen Moore's body language and his sideline demeanor? He has been looking more confused as this progresses and I wonder if the QB is not the only one that needs a run game?
What's your plan for keeping or restoring his confidence level?
Cause you're a hater....I laughed way harder at this than I should have.
Wentz is mobile. Dak isn't anymore.I’m beginning to see some Wentz in Dak but I’m hoping it physical and not mental
You forgot:It's just funny how people come up with new and creative excuses to justify why he's playing so poorly every week:
- "Well, if he just had Tyron Smith healthy."
- "Well, if he just had an average defense."
- "Well, if he just had Amari Cooper."
- "Well, if he just had a better OC."
At what point do you look at the situation and admit that Dak just isn't very good...
#1 rule. Don’t question mods or how this forum is ranWhy hasn't this been merged or moved?
Anyone that knows football or sports in general knows that this happens in a heartbeat for many reasons...why did Simone Biles quit the Olympics? It happens...the real question is how to fix it....he has his contract, maybe he'll choose to flip the bird at the haters or maybe MM can get him right...some lose the grit and grind...it happens...Did you catch the look on Prescott's face after that pick 6 got the WFT back into the game?

he is trying to talk himself out of the situation and that's not possible.... sit him for couple of weeks let his leg heal a bit
It has to get exhausting trying to find every excuse in the book. He should have never been paid to begin with, unfortunately, we're stuck with mediocrity for 3 more years.You forgot:
"It's Linehan and his play calling" - Now it's "Moore and his play calling". There is one constant bewteen Linehan and Moore.
Also, "It's Garrett fault"
It doesn't matter what happens. They will find a scapegoat to absolve Dak from any responsibility.
But the rest of us should just shut up and cheer him on?Anyone that knows football or sports in general knows that this happens in a heartbeat for many reasons...why did Simone Biles quit the Olympics?

They've went from "Dak is elite" to "hopefully the defense carries us".It has to get exhausting trying to find every excuse in the book. He should have never been paid to begin with, unfortunately, we're stuck with mediocrity for 3 more years.
Unfortunately were stuck with idiot fans.....fans that didn't give him credit for good games but pounce on him for bad games.....I HATE fans like you!It has to get exhausting trying to find every excuse in the book. He should have never been paid to begin with, unfortunately, we're stuck with mediocrity for 3 more years.
The rule is wrong??It's just wrong....
On a positive note, that defense is real and IS carrying the team.They've went from "Dak is elite" to "hopefully the defense carries us".
Those poor souls really believed in Dak.
I have no issues with critics....I just don't like the name calling or fans that oy come out to talk negativity and can't acknowledge positives...But the rest of us should just shut up and cheer him on?
Fans aren’t football savvy enough to offer any criticisms?
I’m not sure what you expected in a fan forum setting with open discussion ?
They are and sometimes that's all you need.On a positive note, that defense is real and IS carrying the team.
