Video: Colin: I don't think it's a slump for Dak

[Diehardblues]

Like Rocky did when he created a thread about Jerry saying it was receivers? Then barely a couple comments when he said Dak in a slump (and tried to misdirect the actual comment).

I don’t have as much issue quoting Jethro. He is afterall regardless however embarrassing it is a big part of the Cowboys . And what he says and thinks carry’s some weight in the direction of our franchise.

Talking heads and national mediots on the other hand who flip flop like the wind to sell air time especially with history of bashing the Cowboys should be dismissed as such.

If fans really want to feel the pulse of our team and insight from those closet I’d suggest dialing into our beat writers who actually cover the Cowboys practically on a daily basis. They offer critical thinking without the drama and theatre of television.

Yeah, Colin Cowherd is the guy to hitch a wagon to for this argument...

I think the OP is either Colin or Skip. He always posts what either says when it comes to a negative video on Dak as though we care about what either says.

Cowherd gets his daily opinions from a Magic 8 Ball.

But this time it wasn't negative on Dak.
Colin just repeated what Jimmy said a few days ago---that Dak was like almost QBs (except Brady, Rodgers types) in that he needed a good run game to have real success.

Years ago he actually used to be a more viable critique when he was on ESPN radio . Listened to him all the time . Didn’t always agree but enjoyed his perspective . I even bought his book.

But since moving to Fox Sports TV it appears to be more about entertainment. I stopped watching . Don’t even like him on the Sunday NFL show and stopped watching it all together . Pretty much all TV mediots are agenda driven .

I agree that Dak has been terrible. I'm not disputing it for the last couple games. I'm just pointing out that the OP mainly uses Colin or Skip with his OPs on Dak and that it's getting a bit stale. Maybe he should use additional content than those two.

Why do we have to qualify EVERYONE ELSE first...before we talk about dak?

Okay fine.

The whole team is in a slump.

There...are you happy? NOW can we talk about the QB?

I'm not too sure you're in charge of monitoring my posts, along with so many others here. I believe we're entitled to express our opinions with no need for corrections from you. I'm just as partial to Dak and the others as anyone here, so let's not be quite so touchy about the order I choose to mention them in! If you think you're the only one who loves this team, you're totally mistaken. Just try to chill out, if that's not asking too much . . .

I don't disagree at all with what we said

He is very entertaining. He’s just inconsistent w his opinions.

The guy I used to love on radio was Kornheiser. His dry humor was appreciated. He was great before TV. That mess they produced w him and Wilbon on TV was unwatchable for me.

Common denominator is OL play is down. I don’t know why this is a mystery.

Yeah I like Cowherd but he switches his opinions so fast lol. He was all over Dak 5 weeks ago saying how he was an MVP candidate now he’s an average QB because of a few bad games. If Dak plays well to end the season there will be a segment on how Dak’s playing great ball. Wishy-washy

I was going to reply to 817 and say almost word for word what you said.

It's a slump

Slump don't last usually more than 3 to 4 games. Dak on a 6 games streak.

Oh no...by all means...post what you want. But follow your own advice and let me post mine? I suggest you be less touchy about it. Chill.

So...we're talking about Dak being in a slump and you randomly remind us other QB's are in slumps too. For no real reason. Well okay.


Every time we talk about dak there's ALWAYS...I mean literally ALWAYS....."but the WR, but Zeke, but the Oline but other players." Like you have to say all that first before you can say anything about Dak.

I'm not insulting you or telling you what to post. Just noting the fact.

You’re right.. It is on the front office. 100% they made a bad decision.

But.

Dak doesn’t suck. He’s just a guy that needs a lot around him.

If the front office really wanted to commit to Dak they would’ve committed to the team around him because he is a high end bus driver that can make the offense run like a machine when we run the ball well.

I do not believe Dak had a huge market outside of Dallas waiting to hand him this kind of money. Dallas was in competition with themselves.

Dallas has been bad about overpaying for what they want a player to be versus what they are. I mean it goes all the way back to Ken Hamiln, Roy Williams the safety and the WR. DeMarcus Lawrence, Jay Ratfliff (the second contract) and now Dak. And it isn't that any of these players are bad or suck. They are NFL players and extremely talented. But, they also aren't the best of the best at their positions (or weren't at the time of their contract) and they all were paid like they were/are the best a their position. I'm not saying the Cowboys are the only team to do that, but they do it way too often. And on top of this they don't use any negotiation tactics. With Lawrence he refused to get a surgery as a tactic, they should have said we will give you this, you're not worth what Khalil Mack makes. If he didn't take it oh well. With Dak, they could have used a transition tag to try and get him to play ball. They could have said, this is what we are willing to pay, if you want to test the market, please let us match an offer. They don't use of their cards. They just cave. And this is what you get. Players playing at the talent level they actually have and being paid for a talent level Jerry and Steven want them to be.

Well.....

Prescott 2021 stats (record 8-4)

309 of 455 67.9% Comp % 3,381 Yards 24 TD's 10 INT's

Prescott Last 6 Games (record 3-3)

151 of 239 63.2% Comp % 1,568 Yards 8 TD's 6 INT's

Wentz 2021 stats (record 7-6)

266 of 420 63.3% Comp % 2,948 Yards 22 TD's 5 INT's

Wentz last 6 games (record 4-2)

125 of 201 62.2% Comp % 1,253 Yards 11 TD's 4 INT's


Hate to say it, and I am no fan of Wentz in the least, but Wentz is putting up similar stats to Dak save for the fact he is making less mistakes compared to Dak.....seems Indy is using Wentz for what he is and have emphasized the running game and defense to assist Wentz for team success....the same thing Dallas should be doing to assist Dak as ultimately Dak and Wentz are average QB's that need a quality running game and for them not to be the primary offensive focus.

I don't care if it's a popular opinion in here. Wentz is a more talented football player then Dak. Dak has a whole in his career has made better decisions and seems to be a better leader then Wentz. But, Wentz is more talented. He has better arm talent, he's more mobile, he's more athletic. Maybe a new team is just what he needed to show it all better. And his decision making this year seems to be better then Dak's. And I don't think anyone would make the argument the Colts are a better team the Cowboys. So him putting up a better performance with Indy this year then Dak has, doesn't surprise me.

Slumps can last full seasons. Look at Peytons 4th year in the league, he had an outlier season but recovered. We’ve seen a lot more good than bad from Dak in his career, he does seem to go through more ebbs and flows than other QB’s but he’s also recovered everytime.

Lets see it play out.

 

[Ringo88]

The only running Joke here is folks like yourself who consider Dak ELITE.......

You really seem to get enjoyment out of hating on Dak. He's going to be our QB for a long time, so why even root for the team?

Almost every post I see from you a negative.
