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.
Here’s his quote which you totally blew out of proportion. Fans that hate will even lie to further their hatefulness.

"If anything, it's about making a statement to ourselves.”

Yep. Just like they said last year about the Ariz game. They need to shut up and put the work in. No statements. No platitudes. Results.

Less talk. More execution on the field.

If we build his game up to be too big we’re almost sure to lose. When’s the last time the Cowboys stepped up against a real good team in a big game?

In the playoffs, I think 1992. In the regular season, a couple games in 2014.

You guys are being too juvenile. This was just a simple weekly interview that occurs every week and he was asked is this a statement game. He says this game is a statement for themselves. It pays to actually pay attention.
Exactly. 75% of those who posted didn’t even read the article and blindly took the OP’s post as gospel. Just post anything that hates on Dak or the team and these mentally challenged Zoners will believe it.

..lol... well, you have tons of media in your face. What else can one say?
That's my thing too about these comments is how far are they taken out of context? Was he asked about it and he made a comment? Or did he run up to a reporter and start flexing on him while yelling about next week being "a statement game"? lol

These guys are always at the podium/in front of reporters being hammered with questions, sometimes you just have to say things to get them to move on.

No but he wasn’t talking trash. You obviously were too lazy to read the article.

I read it. I don't care if he was saying it's a statement for the team, statement to the eagles, whatever. It's immaterial to me

Tired of the constant need to stand in front of a mike and talk about how great it's going to be. Just shut up and do it. Talk is cheap.

PS are you able to disagree with someone without insulting them? Some man somewhere in your past must have done you wrong Taylor Swift style. You have a helluva chip on your shoulder. Smile once in a while

You’re lying. He said it was a statement game to themselves! Are you illiterate or just being a butt head?

Absolutely. He is getting annoying with his mouthiness too. Thought he might bring more of a lunch pail work ethic to the team— but alas, he too appears to have some diva in him

Great player with a big mouth.
As his legend grows, so will his mouth.
