Dak Did What Romo Couldn't Do But Can McCarthy?

No I remember and we would have scored but there was almost five min left and all GB needed was a field goal. People act like the was 30 seconds left in the game. But that is why Dak > Romo cause he can win a road playoff game.

Under the right conditions, in year 6, against a team that shouldn't even have been in the playoffs.

I'm enjoying the ride, but putting Romo down to prop Dak up is getting old. Romo was a very good QB, and I personally thank him for sacrificing his body and giving his all to give us a much better record and more entertainment than most QBs would've been able to muster under the same conditions.

Here is where I disagree…I think the pressure needs to come from the edges like Parsons, Williams, Armstrong and Fowler. Up the middle we need another great game from Oziggy. For McCaffrey I think LVE and the Ss are critical. They need to support the DL, tackle well, and prevent him from busting big runs. They also need to punish him on every carry. I think the guy gets way too many clean runs into the secondary. It’s a tall order but I think the responsibilities are split.

I was speaking of the Seattle game not the Green Bay game. Yes even if Dallas scored a TD against Green Bay, the Swiss cheese defense they had that year would have lost the game. That had nothing to do with how Romo played.

Exactly. Why the hell is a mod if he's tired of hearing about Dak? Because I heard about Dak all summer long and all week long after the Commanders loss and didn't see a peep of him being "tired of hearing about Dak". Tired of hearing about Dak after a good performance? He doesn't want to be a mod it seems like.

right if its hater talks all negative, fire away with 17 open Dak sucks posts but no way we are allowed to talk him up as great qb that he actually is because that gets old..

sounds like hes part of the hater club himself.

Dak, Interceptions aside, that we all know about half weren't his fault, elevate this offense from bottom 10 to top 5 with all the important stats ie scoring, red zone scoring % and 3rd down % , Dak made the offense more dynamic and dangerous.. his aggression led to few INts more this year he may not have made before but it also allowed us to score more.

Ill take aggressive confident dak over one afraid to push the ball down the field or throw into tight windows.Hes trusting his targets more and its backfired few times as his wrs didn't make catches they should have and turned into INTs but i like this Dak better.

he taken more of a Farve /Pmannig, really played a lot like stafford this year , approach and just going to try and make more plays. Even the TB game a few could have been picked ie that bucket drop pass to Schultz and that back line pass to Gallup for a td, both were tight but that shows accuracy many say he doesn't have and yes risky but i want that guy and even if he makes few mistakes he makes many more positive plays.

I dont know why we can't just support both of them. When you're QBing my team, odds are ima roll with you. Dak has his faults, but more often than not he's a fine qb. Some of our fans are not realistic as to how unlikely or time consuming it would be to upgrade the position. I'm always for adding superior talent, unfortunately it's easier to complain than it is find someone who is actually better.

I said 'tough', not impossible. I agree, the pressure needs to come from the edges, but they have to do so without going deep enough for McCaffery to run inside them. That's the hard part. It's like they need to guys from each edge: One to go to the QB from inside the blocker and one to keep McCaffery from going around him. I think Hankins is going to need to be a big part of this game.

Dead on accurate, and it's the reason I didn't expect the picks to stop entirely. Obviously, there is room to clean it up, but when you are consistently aggressive, throwing into tight windows, the margin or error is razor thin.

Like you said, stay aggressive; we can't afford to become conservative now.

Agree on Hankins. Need him filling gaps and being a pain in the azz. LVE MUST play tough and help in run support.

Right. This is a Cowboys forum...I know people forget with all the Eagles crap and anti-Dak stuff people see on this site but damn lol.....you feeling confident about tomorrows game? I guess as confident as one can as a Cowboy fan lol.

We definitely have a good opportunity Sunday. But I’m not sure why it’s better than 2007, 2014 or 2016. Maybe even 2018. All teams capable of winning their divisional playoff game .

I will agree Purdy is the biggest question mark I have with SF. Prescott has an opportunity to outshine him .

Our OL is the key IMO. We have to force them to rush more than 4 . And we have to open some lanes for running game and protection for Dak.

And let’s hope it doesn’t come down to a kick . That might have become our greatest jinx . Just don’t know what to think about our kicker. OMG

Up until last game, how many kicks did he miss? Dramatizing much?

Romo never had a defense hold the opposition to 12 points.

Romo did have 1 real good defense under Wade, but the OL got too old. Remember, the team that lost to the Vikings and Farve. They held all the top offenses to 20 points that season, when Spencer had his best season as a Cowboy.
 
Hopefully, we break through this week.

This Dak vs Romo stuff is tiring.

I mean, there are things both have done that the other didn't.
Dak and Dallas have lost more home playoff games, for example.
Pick your poison.
Either one is irrelevant to what we all hope this year's team can do

That Seattle game, wittens 1st down at the 1 was in fact a 1st down and not sure why it wasn't called one even on replay.. wouldn't have had to kick the fg we score a td and that's our game.. Romo holding on kicks, i will NEVER understand and that ball look like someone sprayed it down with wd40.. just insane .. romos been part of few like that and hes not to be blamed for our payoff losses, sorry.. Crayton, the dez no catch(same game murray fumbles, Baily misses 2 fgs), defense , etc etc

I can appreciate both Qbs no need to choose one over the other.

Why do y'all keep saying they shouldn't have been in the playoffs? If not the Buccs then who? The Saints? The Panthers? They were definitely the best in that division. This is the same team that whooped us first game of the season lol.

Romo average a whopping 219 yards in the playoffs. I'm a big Romo fan, but he didn't put together many good playoffs performances.

Romo faced Seahawks, Giants, Eagles, Vikings, Lions, and Packers in the playoffs. Not a single one of them were even remotely close to as bad as the Bucs were during the 2022 season. Your argument is as garbage as this bait thread.

Are you suggesting his wins over the Eagles and Lions aren't comparable to Rams and Bucs for Dak? It's still silly to compare, teams are vastly different. You're just not a very bright fan.
