Lets just deal in facts so that we look at reality and not Romo cry baby fantasy:

These were the Daks stats in 2016 his rookie year. Not only did he win rookie of the year, but it was the 2nd best QB rookie season in NFL history. In short, its about as good as it ever gets for a QB:

2016: 3667 passing yards, 23 TD's and 4 picks, 68 % completion percentage and 104.9 QBR
282 yards rushing and 6 rushing TD's


Totally and completely off the charts.

2017 first 8 games of the season before Zeke suspension and Tyrone Smith injury:

2017: 1818 passing yards, 16 TD's and 5 picks, 102.85 QBR
195 rushing yards and 4 rushing TD's

If you double those totals for the first 8 games he was on pace for these numbers:
2017: 3636 passing yards, 32 TD's, 8 picks
390 rushing yards and 8 rushing TD's, 102.85 QBR

Those stats are almost identical, and you could argue even better than his rookie year. Passing TD's are on pace for 32 instead of 23. Rushing yards and TD's going up also. So he was on pace for improvement his 2nd year.

We all know what happened the last 8 games. Now can any of the Dak haters think of anything that changed starting with the Atlanta game that might have made a major impact on Dak's ability to do his job properly?

So when the facts are shown above they speak of a much different story then the one being told by the Romo cry babies. Dak is one hell of a QB and is all the way a franchise QB. Sure back up the Oline and Zeke will be back and there should be no reason why he isnt right back to continuing to improve.

This is exactly the kind of idiocy that keeps the Romo Truthers riled up and active.

Thanks. Really appreciate it.

The sad truth about Romo.........the facts about Romo is that he broke his back, got old and brittle, quit, and is now in the booth. But it doesnt matter because we have a great young QB in Dak prescott. And we didnt need to use a top pick to get him.

My takeaway here:

As long as everyone on the offense stays healthy, we don't face any competition and don't ask Dak to win any games for us, he'll have excellent numbers?

Okay, cool.

His stats in his ONLY playoff game his rookie year:

302 passing yards, 3 TD's and 1 pick.

If your conclusion by looking at his numbers is that he cant win games for us then you might as well just go hide under a rock.

Dak is good now. The scary thing for the league is he could get better.

Shore up some depth on the o-line, get Tyron a good doctor, and add a weapon or two in the TE/Receiver group and this offense will be top three. Book it.

We have the picks and the cap space to get this done.

Well the two things that Dak has going against him is poor coaching and an average to below average receiving corps. But if the line can stay strong and Zeke is around Ill take those two things. As long as the line is great and Zeke is tearing it up Im not sure how important it is to have great WR's. When Dez was out his rookie year Dak was throwing to anyone that was in there with success.

If we could get some speed at receiver and some YAC his numbers could get scary good.

He had no production in the first half which allowed Green Bay to play very comfortably. They opened things up in the second half and that is where his numbers come from.
