It was an accusation masquerading as a question.

No, it's either question or an accusation.

Again, answer it - are you going to use the excuse that the win will suddenly be impressive because Norman, who can barely even breath, will be playing? Or will it be important because Breeland, who ranks 84th out of all CBs, will be playing?

If Dak throws 4 TDs, is it suddenly a great performance?

And if you answer no, that better be used in the future every time Dak has a "big game" against shoddy defenses. It's best to be consistent with your criticisms.

It can be both. An "accusation" has to do with motivation and can take the form of a statement or a question. "Don't you care?" is a pretty obvious accusation and a question at the same time.

Considering I haven't called the win against the 49ers, the Giants, and the cardinals "quality wins" you can rest assured I won't suddenly be jumping up and down shouting "SUPERBOWL! WE'RE UNSTOPPABLE" if we beat a wounded Commanders. A quick glimpse of my posting history should back that up.

Dak is a great YOUNG quarterback, but he's not great yet. Wentz is a future great, but he's not great yet. Whenever I see people lauding Wentzing and dissing Dak I want to know what they're seeing. Dak has Zeke and a good Oline which helps, but Wentz has a good defense and the knowledge that he doesn't have to put up 40 points every game to win. But they're both flawed, and they're both inaccurate. Dak's better though :)

No, it's either an accusation or a question. They are different, you are putting intent behind my question. You are assuming - just STOP with the one up attempts LOL

But again, we'll come back to these posts in the future after every "big performance" from Dak when he goes up against bad/depleted defenses. Actually, that should have been done against the 49ers, instead, you wanted a back and forth and tried to spin it as though the win against the 49ers meant anything more than us smacking around a winless team.

Trust me, I'll remember.

Feel free. You're free to scour my posting history with regards to the 49ers game. You'll find 2 posts where I commented on Dak scoring 30 points in 3 games in a row, and that's all. You're more likely to find a host of comments about Dez.

By the way, I'll be keeping an eye out for any Wentz posts from you in the future. No Wentz post about how he was good against the 49ers or any team with scrub defenses from now on. I'll have an eye on you

I won't even be watching that game. I'll check out the box score and hope for a 49ers upset, I have better things to do than to watch a bad product on the field.

And the standards I hold Dak and the Cowboys is how i hold every team. There is no special treatment I give Wentz

I'm not about to take the Skins for granted -- best to take their hurts with a grain of salt.

They'll always show up ready to give it their all for their hated rival Cowboys.

Of course, it likely won't do 'em any good but they do anyway. ;)


Bottom line, if your defensive secondary can't stop any half-ways decent QB then no lead is safe, no game is a gimmee.

Commanders went into the Eagles game with most of their starters and left without most of them. The ones who went out, most likely won't be playing. They get a hobbled Norman back and Breeland

Williams - hasn't participated, looks to be out
Smith - Hasn't participated, looks to be out
Long - Out
Scheriff - out

But is this the excuse you're going to be running with? If we beat up an already beat up Commanders team, it's a quality win because they got a hobbled Norman back while losing their entire offensive line?
Who gives a damn if the opponent is beat up? They have no sympathy when the shoe is on the other foot. A win is a win and we need one in the worst way on Sunday. If we get it, we will celebrate like world beaters no matter who the opponent is. And rightly so.

They were more depleted in the game against the Eagles. You, once again, are putting out dodgy "facts"
No. The Eagles knocked four or five of their players out of that game that won't be playing this week. They get back Norman in exchange.
