Dak: “Statement Game”

[88sAndHeartbreak]

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

I'm glad Dak doesn't give up as easily as you do.

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.

Remember when Prescott said Vikings was a Play-Off game.

Dak Haters have convenient amnesia

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.

We played Cincinnati in week two there wasn’t a lot riding on it. The Minnesota game didn’t have a lot riding on it either because we were 6-3. There really isn’t much riding on the game tomorrow night because the Cowboys have already clinched a playoff spot and it would take a borderline miracle for them to overtake Philly for the NFC East title. The only real value to tomorrow’s game is to try and gain some momentum for the playoffs. I laugh when some of you say the Cowboys will be okay because a lot of fans say that every year, only to watch the Cowboys either miss the playoffs or fold in the playoffs. Lol

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

Ridiculous. Lol. Debate as a fan. Agree to disagree. Fine. Calling me a liar? Where and when did I “lie” you self righteous little schmarmy keyboard jockey?

 

[Hawkeye19]

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

No doubt lol… the gas lighting and ad hominem attacks are unreal lol

 

[GimmeTheBall!]

Watch the interview and then STHU!

Dear man, get ahold of yourselves.
Don't make me slap you into reality.

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

They stepped up against Russell Wilson and the Seahawks in the playoffs in 2018. That was certainly a big game against a good team, and a very good QB. That’s the last one I can remember.

 

[RonnieT24]

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?

The Cowboys can't step up against a good team in a big game.. because the instant they win everybody and his brother declares the team they beat not a good team and/or it not a big game. If they beat the brakes off the Eagles tomorrow the narrative will immediately become "The Eagles didn't give it their all so it wasn't a big game.." You can hear Screamin A Smith already.

 

[RonnieT24]

To be fair he said make a statement to ourselves.

Yeah but that doesn't make cool headlines and get clicks..

 

[nate dizzle]

I recommend a bottle of bourbon to be on hand. That way in case they lay a fat turd— you can still enjoy your holiday lol

Have a nice bottle of 18 year old Whistlepig I've been saving up for a special occasion...I guess a Christmas Eve stinker qualifies...

Hopefully it doesn’t come to that— but if it does, enjoy and salud!

If the Cowboys do pull off the win tomorrow, Philly not having Hurts in the lineup will dampen the win considerably. He’s having an MVP year.

Did Dallas not having Dak dampen Philly's win over Dallas?

 

[KJJ]

Did Dallas not having Dak dampen Philly's win over Dallas?

Probably not that much because the Cowboys were playing outstanding with Cooper Rush. They were 4-0 entering that game with Philly. Dak had played one game up to that point and let’s not forget he was horrible. Dak isn’t having the year that Hurts is having.

 

[DallasDW00ds0n]

Yep. We have seen this movie before lol

And now it’s as if you can taste it in the air

 

[DandyDon52]

well if they lose now dak will have egg all over his face.
he put it all on the line lol which he does do.
and if they win it is a weak statement since hurts wont play.

 

[Shane612]

He didn't say what statement.

 

[IceBowler]

..lol... well, you have tons of media in your face. What else can one say?

"Based on the last couple of games, we need to perform to the level of execution and intensity that we're capable of - starting with me."

He kinda coulda said this.

Dak reminds me of mcnabb before we beat their *** in the playoffs,or as I fondly recall it, Donavons last dance game..dak is trying to convince himself,just like mcnabb did.

I mean we know it’s about getting to the NFCCG for the Cowboys to be successful. If not the Cowboys will have to consider big changes.
