Brandin Cooks, who has played with Tom Brady and Drew Brees, with some high praise for Dak Prescott

[Flamma]

Yes Bc other fans are very happy that dak is our guy. You think San Fran wants to see anyone else besides us in the playoffs?

I don't know. Were 49ers fans saying what you said in 1994?

 

[Captain-Crash]

yeah, and he said he's better than Mahomes too, and it doesn't have anything to do with being on a new team and wanting to fit in. Great guy.

 

[Momanpr100]

Substance? Try the last seven years!
It's a disgrace that some here still defend him, especially after last season's loss to the 49'ers.
Every Cowboys fan should be demanding change, instead of blindly accepting the crap that Jerry offers!
He wouldn't have an empire if the fans didn't buy into his hype. He asks fans to support the team, but gives crap In return.

Don't talk about, be about it. Why you not front and center at Jerry World with your picket sign?

 

[Momanpr100]

I just think he can't do it by himself. He's like Hurts, a bus driver. And for the zillionth time, there's nothing wrong with that.

No QB can do it by themselves. And I agree with you.

 

[Big_D]

Can they put the pads on and play in some real games. Everything is great without pressure!

 

[USArmyVet]

How is this news given the fact that a new WR will of course say good things about his new QB......that is until he sees first hand how much Dak sucks.

 

[Motorola]

It all sounded great until he said, " There's a couple guys i've been around that can lead a team, and the way that he's doing it, to be this young, it's unbelievable" SMH
Dak will be 30 when the season starts

- and has started over 100 games across 7 seasons.

 

[NotForLong]

I get his point. It’s just a incorrect point being made. Dak had an injury to his hand and played aggressive instead of timid. Every quarterback has an interception year like this. Brees had a few. Aaron had a few.

We shall see. . . I am very optimistic of Dak improving this year based upon the weapons we have added. I expect many of the new pieces will be firing on all cylinders come the playoffs

We will control the T.O.P and I expect Dak will not be asked to do much . . . Just Ride the Bus.
It will be interesting to see how he performs in what could be perceived as a diminished role. Does He go with the flow and performs as a complimentary piece or does He struggle and crack under the pressure ?

Micah and the Defense have become the identity of this team Dak's turnovers will not be tolerated this year because they diminish the effects of our Advantage . . . The Deffense

Last year He was Hurt . . . Last year he had no weapons . . . Last year was Moore's Scheme. . . Ok, this year is different, a brand new slate

It's sink or swim . . . I believe the offense with the Weapons added and new scheme will be so easily a Cave Man could do it

 

[DFWJC]

You go to a new team with new QB who you must get along with

What else could he possibly say

Oh I don't see a diminished role. Well....I guess it depends on what you mean by that. At worst I see it like 2014 with Romo.

And at the end of the day we can talk about what Dak didn't have and what he did have....they won 12 games. They were right there with the 49ers....Dak played poorly. I'd argue this team didn't [put him in position to succeed if their idea week 1 was to have Dennis Houston as their #2 receiver. I tis what it is I'd hope they've learned officially this time. Sadly, I feel it took to watch Hurts in order to realize how to build a team around DAk and that's pathetic.

 

[NotForLong]

He said Jerry is the bestest Owner ever . . . Way Better then Kraft . . . but I think that is because Cooks doesn't like Chinese Take Out so Much but prefers Johnny Walker on a Private Yacht with Snow Bunnies

If you are expecting Romo 2014 you will be highly disappointed . . . Try shooting for an elevated Dak 2016 . . . Maybe a role such as Dilfer

That is all Dak is capable of if that . . .

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

I mean he wouldn't even come to Dallas. He asked to come to Dallas.

I'm telling you what the team is expecting out of him. They did not just draft a tight end in the 2nd round, trade for Brandin Cooks just to be Trent Dilfer. Sorry to inform you that lol. They are putting resources in the offense to be better than what it was last year. And last year it was one of the best offenses in the league.

I addressed this in my response. . .I said with the scheme and the talent added will make it so easy a cave man could do it . . . it is Sink or Swim

It will be so easy that Cooper could do it or even the Dark Horse Will Grier's could do it . . .

People believe the fact that the Cowboys did not take a QB was indicative of Faith in Dak but I believe it was indicative of the Faith in Will Grier. Will was a highly rated QB prospect his entire scholastic career . . . The difference with Him and the QB's in tgis draft is that He has spent time on an NFL Roster learning.

I believe He may be able to drive the Bus if called upon and we all saw what Cooper did with the old offense that had no weapons . . . He drove the Bus. . . Dak said He was learning From Rush on the sidelines . . . He promised. . . Then He proceeded to do the Rock Star Interception thing

Rush drove the Bus and didn't turn over the ball. . . With All the New weapons and New scheme Cooper should play at an elevated level if given the chance

I believe this year they are during up all the weaknesses . . . As it stands we have 3 QBs learning a new offense . . . I wonder who will be the "Quick" Learners and who will struggle?

Brandin was brought in to clear out the safeties and keep defenses honest. Something Dak has not had here as of yet

The Tight End was drafted specifically to rush the ball while having someone capable of getting open and catching the Ball

Luepke was brought in to Rush the Ball

Duece was brought in to Rush the Ball

The 2 options at Oline of

1. Smith Smith Badaisz Martin Steele or
2. Smith Steele Badaisz Martin Smith is built to run the Ball . . . If you are a fat slow guard they will not even look twice at you

This team is being built to control the Clock and keep the defense fresh . . . Not to showcase Dak . . . We tried that with Moore and all it got the Organization was a Fat Paycheck for Dak

Dak is no longer the identity of Cowboy Nation and if truth be told He is still here because it is cheaper to keep her

If you are hoping for a Romo MVP performance circa 2014 from Dak then you have not been paying attention the last 8 years

 

[Rockport]

try offering something that explains his sudden willingness to throw picks.

And BLAMING EVERYONE ELSE is not going to work.

No WR’s other than Lamb. No RB other than Pollard who should be mostly a change of pace RB, JAG’s at TE, Inexperienced over his head OC and a hodge podge for an offensive line. All the pressure feel on Dak to make things happen. Due to the lack of offensive talent he had to take risks. You have no grip on reality if you think all those int’s were solely on Dak.

 

[GMO415]

Tell us come January, not in May. Means absolutely nothing now.

I agree. That's why I said 2014 Romo. Wait, you thought that team was built to live on Romo's arm and "showcase" him? This is not about showcasing DAk this is about winning football games effectively. The blueprint is out there on how to win. And its not throwing 40 times a game. Just not.

 

[Brax]

Weird that all the pro scouts, coaches, and GM's on this board think our QB sucks.

And they be right
