Cowboys leaning towards not playing Dak in preseason; no final decision yet

[Sarek]

Better for the back up to get more reps. Dak is not getting better, just older.

 

[Typhus]

Time for Grier to shine.
Im actually more concerned with rather or not Bland has jumped Lewis already.

 

[DFWJC]

The QB contracts are so huge now, and they play 17 regular-season games.
I'd prefer to see him play a couple of quarters, but I get it.

 

[LysleE]

I have to hand it to the Dallas FO…what a GREAT idea! Let’s keep the starting QB out of exhibition games, preventing him from working on timing with WRs, RBs and TEs under a new offensive system in live game conditions.
Can Dak get injured? Sure…and he did last year, but the Cowboys managed to play pretty well without him; some might say that the offense functioned more efficiently without Dak at QB.
So…play the man in the exhibition games.

 

[Jipper]

If I were the coach I'd play him 1 series game one, 1 quarter game 2, one half game 3....it's a tried and true method

 

[SlammedZero]

I don't really take sides in this whole Dak debate, but this was hilarious. Had me laughing.

I'm usually of that mindset but since nobody else is doing it, what's the point? I guess we're going to get sloppy football the first few weeks. Just hope the Cowboys don't slip up.

Let's hope there is no rust week 1 again

1000% this.

 

[MountaineerCowboy]

imagine a dak thread with you not in it.

imagine a non-dak thread with you in it.

neither ever happens.

Imagine a MountaineerCowboy post without @CowboysFaninHouston fan girling over it.

Never happens.

 

[DoctorChicken]

Imagine looking at a Dak thread and expecting no Dak talk to be taking place.

Then you have the nerve to play couch psychiatrist......

Imagine looking at a morning cup of coffee and not seeing Dak’s silhouette in the bubbles.

Imagine looking at a beautiful sunset, but not being distracted and enraged by a number 4 shaped cloud.

You can do it. I believe in you!

Unless you have new routes and receivers

Unfortunately, preseason is the most vanilla stuff schematically. Even if he did play, they wouldn’t run anything “new”.

 

[5Stars]

I think he is pointing to Romo getting injured in pre-season and that was it for him

Yes, I remember now, sort of. I was gone for four years in music school and did not really follow the Cowboys.

 

[Blast From The Past]

Save all those INTs for the real stuff.

Sometimes you make me, lol dude.

I'm keeping this so I could write me some lyrics and a song. Love is good.

 

[Zman5]

Probably has to do with Zack Martin not being available for preseason.

 

[SteveTheCowboy]

See Tony Romo.

Only post #19 to invoke tony. Great job! You da man man!

Imagine seeing "enraged" when there isn't any.

Please don't write music that should be beautiful.... about someone imagining rage....when there's none.

I wont...but, when I read other posts, I pick out something in my brain that I could put to some tunes. I'm sick like that.

 

[rambo2]

I can't believe that you guys already didn't know that he wouldn’t play in the preseason games.
