Cousins was barely pressured all game, had a good running game while Dak was on the run all day against the worse pass rushing team in the NFL.

Why do people have to put the entire dysfunctionality of this franchise all on the QB?

Missing wide open players for TD’s because you struggle to read coverage will make people hyper focused on his dysfunction. You’re not winning many games when you refuse to throw the ball over 7 yards. 5.5 YPA ain’t getting it done. You’re not going to get the run game going with all the defenders in the box because your 60m dollar a year QB can’t see wide open WRs downfield to get the defense to back off.

Cousins proved what Goff and every quarterback/team we played this year, the Cowboys have no talent. Put Dak on those teams they still win. Put those quarterbacks on Dallas they lose.
Pay top money to flashy positions (WR) and at QB. As long as there are a few faces and STATZ!!!! Dallas will continue to fill seats (overrate their players) and have fans blame it on everyone else on the team. Not once questioning the very make-up and formula itself of the team is what has been wrong for so long.

Was there any doubt?!? Only a homer think Dak is better than Cousins. We've had better teams than him...but we now can see what Dak does when he's ask to carry a team. Brokeback Mountain.

Well, we all know
1) One game can never tell anyone who is better than who
2) The 2 QBs are playing with entirely different rosters. Kirk has way more weapons and a better line

Having said that, it's always been a legit debate.

I know plenty of Cowboy homers that would laugh if you mentioned Cousins in the same breath as Dak.
But since he left Washington, so in the last 6-7 years, the numbers say he has been as good or better.

Pretty similar to the contract Cousins got coming off a major injury and 5 yrs older.
Daks contract is 15 million more per year, almost 2.5 times the amount of guaranteed money (for all intended purposes it's basically a fully guaranteed contract) and has a no trade clause.

Their contracts are not even close to being similar.

Cousins might have the better team but at the end of the day, he is better than Dak. Dak can't perform when it counts.

....because they don't like Dak because........ Tony Romo would be getting Get Well cards by now.
