Dak’s the sole reason we lost this game, his worst as a Pro

[nightrain]

It takes too many high level pieces around Dak to prop him up. He will be a bigger mistake than Zeke.

I'm not a huge Dak supporter or Dak hater. I'm meh on him. Saying that....did you watch last nights game? Honest question did you actually watch it on TV? Dak Prescott didn't make one good throw out of 44 or whatever attempts he had. Not one single throw was good. His completions where terrible. He didn't hit one player in stride. It was truly an awful display of a NFL QB throwing a football. I've never seen wideouts have to make such incredible catches when so wide open. He isn't worth a dime over Kirk Cousins money.

I watched the whole game. If you can counter one of my reasons I am here to discuss everything. Again, I am not saying he had a good game but there were many, particularly coaching related, atrocious things. Not only him.

Im sorry you wont convice me other wise, ive supported resigning dak all year and I thought I saw progress this year.. Only to see the last 5 games hes regressed back to 2017 bad stretch Dak..

The defense starte doff shaky but then held Philly scoreless for a VERY LONG time , ST showed up enough, and stop blamig the coaxhes and gameplan etc

I say this is is on Dak 100% , in the second half he had so many WQRs running wide open and were missing big plays all over the field..

His misses were high, short, behind and overthrows… His completions were even ugly, he never gave the receivers a chance for YAC at all because they had to practically stop to catch it , so off was the catch zone it threw the play off, gave the defender a chance to close the gaps etc etc

we could have easily took over this game in the second Half but Bad Dak missed opportunity's to move the chains and instead go 3 and out, missed THREE 9 routes with 3 yard opening as the WR beat the DBs and these could have been TDS or 1st and goals.. I cant remember lal of them I was so upset but Austin's was an easy throw , I believe 2 to Gallup that he missed and one that was so short Gallup had to stop let the defender run into him to make a spectacular catch..these could have been huge completeions or TDs. The eagles DBs in the 2nd half were who we thought they were and we had them beat, DAK missed them..

theres were so many bad passes I cant remember them all..

why do I say worst game of his career, its because this time he had time to throw on most of these, had WRs open, and the play calls obviously got players open and he either missed them or threw a off target ball that was caught short of a 1st down or that one before the half that could have lead a WR out of bounds to save a Timeout.
.
the injury could not have been an excuse.. hes had 4 bad games in row and this was the worse IMO

I thought I was watching Quincy carter or a backup out there.. I cant see how Rush couldn't not have played better or the same.. Noones perfect and hits everything but this was bad, real ugly..

the FO or Coaches not having the cahones to pull dak late in the third after he consistently left yards and points on the field..

we could have won this game by 10+ points had Dak played better..

Daks had excuses before like WRs not getting open, too many drops, or line not blocking and him getting sacked or rushed a lot..

This game in the 2nd half was ours to take , none of these excuses could hold, sure a drop here and there , wentz had the same issues but made more plays to no names, HOWEVER Dak left too many opportunity's to win on the field and should have been pulled..

I would have yanked him said you are too injured to lay and put rush in , save face tell players Daks shoulder reinjured and played rush..

Im off the Dak Bandwagon and even BillB or JimmyJ would not been able to overcome a starting QB being that bad.. the plays were called, executed by everyone but DAK..the next coached is doomed if they pay dak 34mil and stick him with him for long term..

hes third tier back to around 16th in the league after a hot start and this was the biggest game of the year he mentality and physically BLEW.. its on him IMO him alone..

if you cant see it make excuses like I said I supported him all year but hes been bad since NE and I saw nothing but bad football from him..

Im steamed!!

Bad game yes. But if Amari doesn't drop that pass, if Pollard doesn't fumble that ball and if Gallup doesn't drop that deep pass that game likely has a different outcome

 

[Aerolithe_Lion]

I have no argument .So freaking frustrated The usual heaters will come out. But it holds more substance from people that actually supported him.

But since he's better than Aaron Rodgers, who's unbelievably only got 2 INTs on the season and his team is 11-3, it isn't that big of a deal right?

Nevermind his superbowl ring, 2 MVP awards... Dak clearly proved he is the superior passer. Think Dak will win MVP this year? A-rod will probably be a nominee again.

 

[Kaiser]

Look . Where Prescott supporters .All the more take the post with integrity. It was definitely Prescott. That lost this game

This game was all on Prescott. If he was healthy they would win by 14 points, but he wasn't healthy.

 

[Kaiser]

Bad game yes. But if Amari doesn't drop that pass, if Pollard doesn't fumble that ball and if Gallup doesn't drop that deep pass that game likely has a different outcome

That's part of it, but Dak was throwing the ball high all game because of the shoulder injury. The receivers were seeing a different ball thrown than they were used to, which leads to more drops like we saw in this game.

 

[khiladi]

That’s Jason Garrett’s fault then. No “player” is going to refuse to listen to me. I’d force him to sit out. Same with the Zeke consistently going out. I know he hit his head on that last play, but that’s not the only time he did it. If I’m Garrett, I’d tell him to get his arse back out there and stop coming back in the moment his heartrate goes up by 1.

I agree, but Dak and Garrett are joined at the hip since the Romo decision too.

Also, players pulling themselves out of plays seems to be a regular occurrence throughout the league now.

 

[THEHEREAFTER]

Not his best game but in fairness:

1. Coop should have extended with two hands on that dig fitting in the zone for about 15.
2. Coop dropped a critical third and short hitting him between the #'s stopping a drive.
3. Gallup dropped an easy 9 that could have gone for a score on the final drive
4. Cobb dropped a tough but catchable ball that could have put us in great position on the final drive.
4. Witt dropped an easy one that could have set up a third and very manageable which could have extended a drive.
5. Pollard's inability to gain a yard in consecutive attempts/fumble ruined a drive. I believe we could have seized momentum at the outset of the second half.

Drop which deep pass? The one ONES underthrown?

 

[Rajveer]

I am sorry but an injury depleted team handed us the loss. We played their practice squad players almost operating at full strength. That is not all on Dak. Yes he played bad and most of his throws were either high or behind the WRs. However playing Witten more than Jarwin, scheming like that for this game is why we are here talking about the loss.

 

[WillieBeamen]

Hes terrible. Ive been saying it for 3 years now. Yall didnt want to listen to me.


I loathe Jason Garrett and his staff, but no coach can win with QB play that Dak displayed yesterday.

Lot's of "drops" that had NOTHING to do with bad throws? Not sure which game you were watching but "good throws" were very few and far between. Terrible location just about every single time.

 

[khiladi]

The play where Cooper dropped it on third and short, I thought was purely his fault. They showed the replay again from behind and it was completely inaccurate throw by Dak, who was supposed to throw it outside. It was just another one of his BEHIND the WR throws he does regularly.

Dak is always high and and behind. It’s a regular occurrence. The shoulder injury is an excuse, especially when they threw over forty times after coming off a game where Dallas was forced to run, because of Dak’s finger injury and Zeke pretty much carried the team on his back.

 

[Swanny]

Over the shoulder right in his paws. Should have caught that ball.

 

[TwoDeep3]

Shoulder issues on the throwing arm. Very inaccurate.

Fans excoriate him for toughing it out.

FO has no preparation for injury to their starter. Makes me think of Foles and Wentz.

Fans are myopic on good days. Today they need a cup and cane with dark glasses.

 

[SteveTheCowboy]

Yeah yeah yeah..

Dak dropped the passes the stalled the drives..

Dak fumbled the ball..

Dak called the plays on 3rd&1s..

Dak used the timeouts improperly..

Dak didn't adjust when they made 6 (SIX) consequtive passes to Goedert.

Dak didn't adjust when they made 3 consecutive TE screen passes.

Dak opted to punt when the team was two scores behind.

Dak took Elliot out on 3rd&1.

Dak took the recievers out on 4th down play.

Dak didn't take a timeout to design a freaking play at such a crunch time.

All Dak, all bloody Dak.

But but but he missed wide open Cooper and Gallup, as if no other elite QB does not ever miss anything.

Those Dallas coaches survived so many years thanks to this kind of fans. It was Romo back then, now it is Dak. So, I don't really blame Jerry for this utter garbage.

Yes...it;s true...the whole team pretty much stunk...especially offense. But don;t act like a good qb can't straighten out the ship. A few excellent passes, one or two timely runs. It's Dak's job to bail out the team. Good QB's do that. Especially ones that want Paid.

For God's sake, will there be ANY OTHER team in the coming 100 YEARS that scheme the defense like Dallas did in that 1 yard rushing TD? People are so blind.

 

[khiladi]

Dak has so much time to set his feet regularly because of his pass blocking, it’s comical people try and justify how often he’s throwing high or behind WRs on a regular. This has followed him throughout his career, where his mechanics go completely haywire.

The reality is the pass protection afford this guy leeway for his slow reaction time.

 

[SteveTheCowboy]

Over the shoulder right in his paws. Should have caught that ball.

Okay...with all the truly terrible throws, I may have missed that one.

 

[leeblair]

I've always said Dak is a "momentum" player- that is, he plays well when things are going well.
But if you watch his film from college he is exactly the same;
He does great when things are going great, but when he feels pressure he is the first to choke.
He was in his element in 2016, standing behind the best line in the NFL with all day to throw and with opposing defenses focused on Zeke.
But when that big offensive line grew weaker as their prime passed and injuries took their toll, Dak was just Dak. No better, no worse than he was in college.
