Twitter: Dak has taken a step back in his return

[MountaineerCowboy]

Before we hit the panic button, nothing has changed. Recall McCarthy said Dak would throw again in "two or three days". Now they are being more conservative. I bet it will be two or three weeks instead.

That's a pretty significant change.

Dak has shown ZERO reason to ever believe he would do anything like Tom Brady did it.

That wasn't the point, the point was things aren't always like they appear to be early on, so give things some time.

Come on. You cant take the entire thing out of context to rile up the board lol. "Dallas is taking a step back with Prescott" is a lot different than "Dak has taken a step back"

What does the first sentence in that tweet say?

That's a pretty significant change.

Especially for someone who is in the best shape of their life.

Actually the first reports I read online said it would be a couple of weeks, then McCarthy said a couple of days in one of his press conferences. It's always going to be the more conservative route with injuries like this.

Minor set back for a major comeback......

Yeah, well everyone that had any sense knew that was total BS. I called it out at the time he said it also.

There was never any way someone that had to spend 95% of their year rehabbing just to learn to walk normal again, let alone do anything required to be an NFL QB, was ever going to be in the best shape of their life that early on.

Pretty much think it is no news....I think they really are clarifying their position. Since they announced the injury...they originally said he could miss a couple weeks. Then McCarthy said 2-3 days. Now they are going back to the original estimate...which should have been the answer the whole time. Thye have only had three practices since he went out and it is only the 7th day since it happened. There is no reason to even consider him throwing till next Tuesday....as there is only a practice today and a practice Saturday. No reason to be dumb.

The way I read this is taking a step back, not suffering a setback. The Cowboys just aren't rushing things, as they shouldn't.

That's exactly what it is...either people are attempting to rile up the board or lack comprehension skills.....or hell...maybe both.

 

[Cebrin]

Why be more conservative though if the injury isnt at all concerning?

Risk your 40M vetted QB for Pre Season? Makes perfect sense to me to be cautious.

Anyone remember when and where Tony Romo got hurt?

No no I get it. But I just got an update on my phone saying the other part. All good man I was just pointing it out

They’re riling up the Dak fans that they don’t like.

It is probably just that Dak wasn’t going to play in the Pitt game so might as well let him rest for a couple more days before the game and then he won’t have to throw for almost a week more. It makes sense.

Too much common sense. It's not allowed here.

 

[TwoCentPlain]

As long as he can still hand off, everything should be good. Got Elliott, so no problem.

 

[Silver N Blue]

Some initial reports last week said he would be out two weeks.

 

[JoeKing]

Told you so!
