Dak concerning trend of losing big games

[BourbonBalz]

This Was not even a big game against a good team.

The opponent had a losing record.

Still choked and played poorly

While Dak wasn’t great on Sunday, he put up 28 points and gave the team a 14 point lead going into the 4th quarter. The defense collapsed. All they had to do is not give up a TD on 4th and 7 and we win that game. Not giving up 200+ rushing yards would’ve helped too. LOL.

It's always a "big game" when we lose.

Yeah, they will be talking about it for years to come.

That legendary game in November when the 6-2 Cowboys took on the 3-5 Packers with EVERYTHING ON THE LINE.

Was a week 10 game on the road vs a non division opponent a big game?

Actually it was,now we have 3 conference losses,which hurts us in the seedings

 

[dfense]

I know it's not all his fault but we've seen a multi-year pattern of Dak not winning big games.
He does great against average to bad teams but comes up short.
He get's paid $40 million to win those games and he almost always fails.
Dak is a great talker but his skills have diminished as far as becoming an above average QB.

You're just noticing this?

 

[bigE79]

Your QB has to play BIG when it matters...even if they are not considered elite. The Brad Johnson/Trent Dilfer days of bus driving to a Super Bowl are long gone. Even Eli, Flacco, Nick Foles, and Stafford had to step up and make winning plays in big moments on the road in order to win it all. I have zero confidence in Dak playing at that level. He is more likely to do something stupid like running a QB draw with no timeouts left than take the team on a game-winning drive in the playoffs.

Real question,when was the last time dak beat a team over 500 that was not in the NFC east..I really don't remember.

 

[Carson]

The way he plays early in big games is a huge red flag at this point.

He was complete trash early on in the game throwing balls in the dirt and over people's heads. Not like it is the first time we have seen that.

This is what is maddening to me about Dak.

All QBs throw picks, sure. But damn. Stop throwing the ball in the dirt or over an open receivers head and then the picks don’t hurt.

 

[bigE79]

They used him smartly in 2016. Somewhere along the line they decided to use him like Mahomes, since they paid him like Mahomes. It's not working.

Elite

 

[bigE79]

Every good quarterback gets paid, you don't have to be elite . I believe Watson has one of the biggest contracts in NFL history.... I don't see the whining and crying over him getting paid.

Its hilarious how people cry about quarterback money like Dak is the first to receive a contract. I guess some people haven't been watching football over the last couple of decades.

Watson or Wilson?

 

[bigE79]

He made one bad int that was actually on him, but he redeemed his bad play by giving us a 14 point lead.



The run defense was the problem yesterday, just like it has been all year. Maybe you should ask McCarthy to put Dak on the defensive line to help stop the opposing team's running game...



Atleast it would make better sense of people blaming Dak for what happens on the defense beyond his control. As a matter of fact.... what other quarterbacks in NFL history has been blamed for the defense getting abused like Dak does??

Romo

Romo

Ya he also was afforded a bunch of excuses...... Whats the common denominator https://encrypted-tbn0.***NOT-ALLOWED***/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRJlASRpnd0gnpRfPlB6A5fyhbnVRxJdv65WQ&usqp=CAU These buffoons. Its lovely being a die hard fans of the boys

hey, Tim has a better playoff record. Watch it now. Tim's not a dak.

 

[Wangchung83]

I mean outside of the playoffs against Seattle and at New England last season he is anti clutch in big games

New England was a big game last year?

Oh my gawd, watch the game.

Dak was pathetic.

Yep, the defense was horrible







Dak was not great


Plenty of blame to go around

 

[Legend]

That is a big reason why the Cowboys have not won back to back playoff games in the same season for a long time.

If one cannot be clutch during the regular season; he definitely will not be clutch during the postseason.

 

[GINeric]

Oh my gawd, watch the game.































Dak was pathetic.

Dak had bad moments but we loss the game because of the defense, mostly. Dak had his share of the blame but to say this is 100% his fault is dumb and stupid. For some, that's expected based on their lack of football knowledge.





















had bad moments , no doubt but

 

[GINeric]

Romo

I highly doubt Romo got blamed for the failure of the defense the way Dak gets.

 

[erod]

Are you 12? Did you miss those games?

 

[GINeric]

Are you 12? Did you miss those games?

No, but you must be 12 if you can't understand that Romo didn't get blamed on the same level as Dak. Romo got blamed, but nowhere as much as Dak, period.

 

[FTWayne]

Cooper Rush, the winner.

Dak, loser.
