Dak: “Statement Game”

[Ken]

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 ear ofned 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.

A 6 page thread on a statement taken out of context?

Why am i not surprised?

Ya, let's all get upset and whiney over this statement:

"As you look at the season, we've had some games where we played really well and some games where we bit ourselves in the foot, and had some games where we didn't and we lost.


"It's about putting our best foot forward, putting our best effort out there and proving it to ourselves in all three phases that we're a hell of a team and we can go get it done against one of the best teams in the league whether they're in our division or not."

He was asked if this was a statement game. He said, “If anything, it’s a statement game for ourselves.” You’re being a Karen trying to make it into something it isn’t and you should be ashamed.

There is no recorded question in the article. Nice try though

You continue to lie so you reap what you sow,

"Mom, he's lying"

The Candy Man Can.

He's a little criminal he is. I can see it in his eye.

I just read the article. Didn’t watch the video. And still don’t care.

Reporters can ask whatever they want, and players can answer however they want.

Think back to this team talking up Arizona and then laying a big fat turd last year. You tired of that yet?

You don’t want to hear the truth and continue to put forward a lie. This calls your character into question. Nothing to do about football. It’s all to do with being honest with others and yourself.

Whiney? No. Cynical, critical, skeptical, and pissed that this team talks and doesn’t deliver? Yep.

“Skypoint” Prescott needs to lead with his play on the field. Not his mouth. Diminishing returns.

Show us don’t tell us. His messaging is now hollow. If it still rings true for you, enjoy the kool aid at the kiddie table

Character? Lie? What lie? Lol… agree to disagree. Fine by me. Get personal and call my character into question?! WTH?

There is no pride in being smug when you are wrong, toff.
To wit: "Yeah, for sure (it's a statement game.)" Then he doubles down, "a statement" to the team.
It's a statement by you that begs a wire splicer.

Your hero could have said "They are all important games. The Eagles are a great team."
Tha is all, wayward knave.
But noooooooooooooooooooooooooooo....

Yes, calling your character into question. Or lack thereof more like it.

he is the Candy Man, lets not try and make it anymore than it has to be.
Only Parsons could back up that title and bring some fear with it...lol

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.

100% agree.

Everyone should just let their play do the talking, including Micah.

That's how Diggs rolls.

 

[windward]

Parcells....what did he accomplish here, other than getting a towel thrown at his face.....he just collected one last paycheck.

Those were the greatest 9-7 teams ever!!

statement game against a team that will probably mail it in and rest their QB and some starters ? i think not. Dak has not done a statement game in his career , period. A mediocre massively overpaid QB who duped jerry and the systerm in to believing he is elite.

 

[baltcowboy]

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?

Cincinnati and Minnesota say hi. You guys act like the Cowboys are 7-7 and fighting for a playoff spot relax. The Cowboys will be ok.

Statement: We are inconsistent and have no business in playoffs!

Par for the course unfortunately.

Some folks are so over the top emotionally invested in this guy that they feel they have to destroy anyone who doesn't see it their way.

It's not enough to disagree, or even disagree vehemently

They have to personally malign and attack anyone who criticizes him. Almost like they're his Mom or something. Kinda strange, bordering on creepy, if you ask me

 

[JBS]

Not meaningless.
This team better figure out quickly how to beat the team, Eagles believe they are the chosen ones, they have only lost 1 game so why shouldn't they.
The value in some coordination developing on how we face this style defense and offensive play design, lol, thats about how the comp in the NFC is rolling into post season play.
We better take this game seriously we have some holes to fill quickly with some newbies floating around trying to find their place and how they can start contributing.
This entire roster needs contributors at this point, and those choosing to step up will get the looks.
This season is a long way from over.

meh. The game has no meaning. That has nothing to do w the balance of the season. Beating an eagles team missing its starting qb means nada. Just like the eagles beating a Dallas team without Dak means nada.
