I don't think you would find one single person that would complain about stats if Dallas won a superbowl. That is ludicrous. When you lose in the first round of the playoffs every year with those numbers... thats another story. When mentioning QB's to compare with Dak how about use Donovan McNabb, Warren Moon, Carson Palmer or Andy Dalton. Qb's whose successes are more comparable. Not the Aikman's, Montana, Mahomes stuff which is just not fair to Dak.
ONCE AGAIN…I was not comparing them…..what do you not understand….

The Chiefs last 2 backup quarterbacks have been Blaine Gabbert and Chad Henne. They have well over 100 professional games started under their belt in case Mahomes goes down

Cooper Rush and Will Grier don’t even have 10 games started between the both of them despite being in the league a combined 8 years.

Thats the MO of this FO……..just wing it quarterback depth

Maybe they can resurrect Brandon Weedens career here again.
I recalled Henne having to immediately fill in for Mahomes ..but i don't recall Blaine having to do so ..
He may have been a backup but was he ever pressed to start ..the way Henne was ?

Meh ...I'm not sweating Dak, I'd be willing to set confidence in him as a starter that will eventually get us over the hump come playoff time

after viewing Cooper Rush vs Cincy, Rams and Giants, and despite his physical limitations, I'm still inclined to trust Cooper as a clever bus driver

Hopefully it will not come down to Wil Grier who does have some game experience.

Perhaps not but he was THERE just in case he was needed.

Just looking for real competition and real depth.

I am really interested in developments in lower ranked receivers.

Which means that opposing defenses, and Cowboys’ fans, shouldn’t sleep on Simi Fehoko in 2023...year three's are the time.

when they drafted him I had never heard of him but was encouraged. The fact that hes rarely seen the field makes me wonder if hell even make the squad. you have your starters and Tolbert. Then a host of guys playing for 2 spots. You may even have your special teams returner taking up 1 of them. Im rooting for the guy I hope he makes it
