Dak 1 yard short of tying Romo's single season franchise passing record; 2 yards shy of rec

[G2]

That's a silly conspiracy theory.........BTW, he was shy by one yard?...With the receiving corps he has? That doesn't seem like something to brag about.

Why is that a bad thing? The last guy had Hall of Famers in their prime

Like Troy said during the broadcast, it probably wouldn't mean much to Dak at that point, but it would mean something to him when he is retired like Troy is an looking back at his career.

he will eventually break it

 

[Risen Star]

Wasn't even close.

Passing records are all temporary because of the existing rules in the NFL. They will all get broken and rebroken.

It's one Dak also didn't achieve but yet we have a whole thread about it

It was 2 yards away. And if you're so butt hurt about anyone giving accolades to the QB and making a thread, why do you keep posting in it?

It's encouraging to see him overcome a poor performance and even started rough vs. Washington.

 

[OmerV]

It probably depends on whether we can get back to a more consistent running attack, which would result in Dak throwing less than he did this season.

 

[ABQCOWBOY]

I don't know this to be a fact but I suspect that Dak knew how close he was. I just think he said no. I have no proof of this, I think somebody probably said, "Do you want it" and he probably said, "It's cool."

Well, more than half on this forum thought Romo was some sort of loser, so, comparing Dak to Romo, what does that tell you? Not something to brag about. If Romo did not ever do a "win and in" game...well, why use him as some sort of barometer? Is it to talk Dak up? Because IMHO, if Dak took the beatings that Romo took during his career, who cares about a few yards? Dak will never be the QB Romo was...(actually, Romo might have taken this current team farther than 8-8...straight from the booth.

I get it, the team sucks and we celebrate garbage time stats. Go Dak, you killed it when it didn't matter!

I just think the way of the league, he will eventually break the record.

And here you still are, repeating yourself about things you claim don't matter. Lol.

you've made me realize that individual ALMOST accomplishments mean so much

Somewhat agree but also disagree. Aikman was physically limited...with his feet. Great arm when he had the best Oline blocking for him with the best receivers & TE catching the ball and the best RB running behind him, but once he lost his Oline, WRs and TE due to the salary cap, Aikman's 2 left feet hindered his ability to avoid constant incoming pressure which greatly affected his game and caused him to suffer several concussions which ultimately contributed to his retirement (even though he says it didn't). In other words, Aikman shouldn't talk because he would likely struggle with today's team which is very inconsistent with its Oline protection/blocking, receiving, rushing and playcalling.

Never mind the fact that QBs could get hit back then instead of being protected like they are made of glass.

Every day you sling it deeper, just pathetic.....

Why if the Cowboys had a 31 point lead? Why not let Dak go for the franchise single season passing record and try to reach 5,000 passing yards?

Because it is a conspiracy against Dak. Nobody likes him but you and your friends.

wait for it, "if you don't slobber all over Dak, find another team". lmao at him and his followers.

 

[ABQCOWBOY]

Troy Aikman at OU, running the option. He had wheels when he was young. It's a misnomer, the assumption that Aikman did not have decent feet when he was young. Aikman literally could have played in any type of Offense when he was young. Watch from about the .50 mark.

What trio of receivers did he have that compared to this one, along with a good receiving RB, and a play making TE to go with the safety valve Witten, and the O-line Dak has? I honestly don't remember him ever having such a variety of weapons.

you probably weren't a Romo hater, who blamed him for every loss. oh well, you can see the dak"slobbers" are the Romo haters.

To be fair, @Streetwise wasn't a Romo hater either.
