Dak: “Statement Game”

[Aven8]

My statement is don’t ruin my Xmas Eve by losing please

 

[Nav22]

"I'll never falsely be considered a top 10 QB again after this season"

That's the only statement Dak makes

LOLLLLL

You said that same thing last year at this time.

Have you wiped all the egg off your face yet?

"B-B-BUT JUST WAIT UNTIL NEXT YEAR!!!"

 

[PA Cowboy Fan]

MM's never won anything important?

I'm talking about the Cowboys. MM won it in GB. Different organization.

The man hasn't been here very long.

This team can’t shut up. Last year, they talked about Ariz being a “statement game” and they laid a turd.

Now Dak is yapping about the Eagles game being a statement game.

I wish— for once (since Parcells left)— this team would do their talking on the field. If they go out and lose to Minshew tomorrow night, they will have earned every bit of disrespect they get.

What do they earn by talking this game up? If they win— the story will be they beat a backup QB. If they lose, they are a joke. SMH… I fail to see the upside of trying to declare this game some kind of measuring stick now that Hurts has been ruled out.

If you can't dazzle them with brilliance, baffle them with bullzhit.

That's true and we'll see what happens the rest of the season. I'm talking about players talking before big games. Don't really remember GB doing that. I don't think most teams do that.

 

[Whirlwin]

The team was not as soft as they are now

I guess you don’t remember.

 

[zrinkill]

I have a feeling this team is gonna make a statement alright.

 

[Gangsta Spanksta]

If hurts wasn't hurt, it would be a statement game

 

[PA Cowboy Fan]

I guess you don’t remember.

I remember he got us to the playoffs with Quincy Carter as QB. Should have been coach of the year for doing that.

Yes, but the team was soft. Carter was a decent quarterback, he just like doing cocaine.

 

[PA Cowboy Fan]

Yes, but the team was soft.

I know the team became soft when Wade was coach.

 

[Gangsta Spanksta]

Statement game against a backup QB...

The question is: Would Dak still have made this proclamation if hurts wasn't hurt?

 

[Whirlwin]

I know the team became soft when Wade was coach.

I’m trying to bite my tongue, about the botched field goal

 

[Whirlwin]

The question is: Would Dak still have made this proclamation if hurts wasn't hurt?

There’s nothing wrong with Prescott other than trying to make him do things he’s not used to doing. He never throw interceptions he held on the bowl too long. Now they’re telling him to just release it. And he’s throwing INT’s. Mostly because of the deflections. Yeah everybody wants to put the blame on him and they should but not as bad as some people want to make it out to be.

Man, talk is cheap!
As you said, let your play speak for itself.

Perfectly said. Goes back to my comment in the HS motivational speech thread the other day

Don't talk. Just do it. Words are cheap, results matter. And I say that even if they win tomorrow. You're supposed to win the ballgame. That's your job. Don't tell everyone how important it is to you. Just go do it. Then next week, do it again

 

[Runwildboys]

We, as Dallas fans, probably don't hear nearly as much about what other teams' players and coaches say to the media, unless it's a big story or pertains to the Cowboys in some way.

 

[MS17]

Could we send Dak a statement?

Exactly. If you have to talk a game “up” to find additional “motivation” to play your best against a rival— something is wrong lol
