5. Because he doesn't wear his hat backwards
6. Because he always points up to the sky when he scores a TD.
Dak faithful, state your case for the need to play Dak in 2023

I mean, that's pretty much how it works in the NFL. Three of the final four QB's are on rookie deals, and other one is the future GOAT.
You need to win in this league before you pay your QB.

Please take this opportunity to offer up reasonable and rational options.
Otherwise, you’re just trolling.

Deck does not lack leadership. DAK reeds defense poorly at times. As we all know there’s good DAK enters bad DAK

Why should we stick with him? He has led us to some regular season wins but always falls short. He is usually not the reason that we win. I think he's only won like one or two games when we don't rush for more than 100 yards. Dude is a joke of a QB. Honestly I'd rather we be worse and try something else for the potential of it being better rather than running Prescott out there knowing what was gonna happen.

the real issue with Dak is that he is regressing and anyone with a functioning brain can see that. He’s not going to come out and be better next year with some mechanical adjustments. He is having serious problems processing reads and doesn’t see defenders and double teams. His accuracy is failing more often than not. He had one good game the last five weeks against the Bucs. It doesn’t get better from here, The only way is to stack the rest of the offense and defense with elite talent and hope that it compensates for a below average QB.

Exactly there is no NEED, he is gonna because of that ridiculous contract. Cost too much to cut him and nobody will take him in a trade. We are stuck with him again. Has nothing to do with NEED

Plenty of this said it at the time too. 100% I think the rest of the league has woken up to the fact that you either need a) rookie QB that allows you to fill the skill positions around him or b) a proven performer that is worth the $$.
Some might argue that Stafford is an example of a mid range guy 'doing enough' to get a ring.. but I would say that he had reliably and consistently shown that he elevated the team around him.
My big issue with Dak.. and especially with us 'paying' Dak.. was that he has never actually shown he is a good QB. It is worth saying again.. 2016 he walked into a dream job and had Zeke rushing for 100+ every game.. we were dominant. 2017 he struggled - receivers blamed, 2018 - we gave up a heap to get a better receiving core.. he was inconsistent.. zeke was still rushing significant totals, we blamed coaching.. he gave up INT in the playoffs, 2019 - he was inconsistent going from literal 'perfect' games to games with a passer rating in the 60s. We never could get any momentum.. and Dak struggling without a truly dominant run game.
2020 we tag him.. he gets injured..
2021 we give him the monster contract before he has even thrown a ball.
The dude literally got one of the biggest paydays in league history.. with a record of exactly two wildcard play off wins.. after coming off a season in which he didn't play. I mean you couldn't make this stuff up.
It was crazy then and it has been proven to be crazy now. Sheer stupidity. And for those just 'waking up' to the Dak reality.. and thinking he has 'fallen away'.. he hasn't fallen away.. the problem is that he was never that good to start with. He walked into a crazy good squad and used his limited talents to beat up on weak opponents in a mostly weak division. As soon as there was ever a challenge.. he folded like a cheap suit.
The rest of the league knows this.. you simply can not overpay for the likes of Dak, Cousins.. and even Carr coming on the market.. same thing.. buyer beware.

Lol this week is going to be fun all the whining will be magnified
Me personally I don’t care if we keep Dak or get rid of him he’s not the only issue
We’re close we just always seem to find a way to muck it up just like we did with last qb
I’m just not gonna sit here and whine about the qb
I did that with the last one and it didn’t help then either the grass isn’t always greener on the other side
I figured we’d be 2 and done the writing was on the wall

Well said. Dak was hot when he had all the assets on offense and a weak division to give him easy w’s. His mechanics, slow reads, inaccurate throws, and poor execution have shown up repeatedly. What other team would pay him all that money? We need someone who can evaluate QB talent so we don’t make the same or new mistakes.

I'm not a Dak faithful but he's coming back because of the contract. I listen to Mike Fisher a lot and sometimes he annoys me cuz he can be a little condescending. But another annoying thing about him is he has been very defensive of Dak during chats or broadcasts. But he did a 20 minute post game show and he basically said Dak is the reason we lost this game, Dak is regressing, Dak is a turnover machine and Dak won't be successful in the future. I was shocked Uncle Fish, Dak supporter, said those things. If someone like Fish states that Dak isn't the answer is pretty big. That's like Mickey Spags stating something negative about Jerry.
The only thing we can hope for is we find our Purdy by pure luck and Dak becomes a very expensive backup for 2 years until he's a FA.
If there was no contract then I have no reason to bring him back. He's a top 10 QB against bad defenses and a bottom 5 QB against good defenses. We've gone as far as we can with him. Time to turn the page.
