Before you blame Dak

No doubt he was inaccurate at times. Of course there were some misreads. He seemed rattled on occasion.

But the ENTIRE offense was bad!!! Coaches, OL, RBs, WRs etc...

Dalton Schultz CANNOT block. People might like him because he catches and has yards. But when you have Cooper, Lamb and Gallup..and Zeke in the backfield...someone has to be open. And often it is Dalton Schultz. If he made tough catches....I could understand the love. But he makes routine catches because he is wide open. My point. He is not all that impressive. TEs in this offense need to be able to block to for the run game to work. And he could not block my grandmother (who is deceased by the way)....so I will not miss him.

Untimely holding calls. Lack of separation. Bad play calling. But more than anything....the inability to run the football. And this is not something that just started happening. When the playoffs start...Dak is NOT going to throw for 450 yards 4 straight games. We cannot run the football. And because of this...our ceiling is the divisional round.

From a Dak fan:

He was bad today. There were a lot of passes he would like back. It seems when the rest of the team bogs down, he bogs down with them. It's a bad pattern. Even though his final stats actually appear decent, he stunk today. And again, I support him.

He hurt this team today and Moore did nothing to help him.. Almost see why he dont take off if he is not going to protect the ball when he runs..

There is a specific thing defenses are doing against dak. Showing blitz on third and longs. When the defense drops out, he hasn't been quick enough to adjust, and he's just a step slow when trying to run. To be honest thats why I get pissed when we run the ball into nowhere with zeke for 2 yards. Its a waste of a down sometimes.

Why can't we do more designed runs with dak, use his legs. It freaking worked on our last touchdown drive.

Dak is at fault as much as anyone but not more .
Special teams was crap with missed field goal , fake punt conversions leading to a ten point turn around , defense could not get off the field but it was all dak ? Dak had 3 TDs thats usually enough to win a game

Dak is a middle of the road QB. He’s not an elite signal caller and he is never going to be. The cowboys coaches need to have a sound game plan going into games and aggressively make adjustments throughout. You also have to use the guys legs. I don’t care if he’s reluctant. Call the plays.

Having said all of this, the playcalling today was also a bit weird. It's like Moore can't tell when Dak is struggling and continues to dig him into a deeper hole.

I idnt even read the thread... DO YOU ACTUALLY WATCH THE GAME? Even some of his completions are at people's shins, or behind them... he was awful, AGAIN. Face it, great QBs, when the game is over, you arent sitting around saying dont blame the qb.

No more excuses. Team is healthy, great WRs, and nothing from Dak... again.

So to summarize

Dak needs EVERYTHING TO GO PERFECT

Dak can't over come adversity
No...but when we convert a 3rd down...and it gets called back because of holding...that is a lot to overcome.

When we are trying to establish the run game....and the TE completely whiffs (AGAIN) on 1st down...and we lose 3 yards. And now we are in 2nd and 13...that is HARD for a QB to constantly overcome.

And the defensive coordinator completely SCHOOLED Kellen Moore. I get the QB gets the majority of the blame...because they get most of the praise....but Kellen Moore, the OL and the run game etc..were all bad today.
