Sure buddy.. pocket presence is awful, running scared when pressure comes and the OL isn’t giving him 5 seconds to throw, pedaling backward and throwing off his back foot, being so scared he’s always checking down unless guys are wide open.. OK..
LOL @ scared, Lmao.
Bigger the game the better he's played. The opposite of Romo.


"Yeah but he threw for 500 vs. Denver" - in 3...2...1...

Like that 6-0 Eagles game where he said it was important to finish out strong.. like when the team realized how big a mistake they made so they had to run and get a legit WR for him while he floundered continuously in his “Dak friendly” offense.. like an absolutely meaningless game against the Giants that has no repurcussions and the team Dak scared to play the backup QB?

They easily expose themselves. Any sucess of Dak threatens the very perception of Romo's legacy they've built up in their minds.
The thing is y'all Dak extremist never show proof of,this lazy narrative just make up invisible people. Who are these people with proof that loved Romo and hate Dak? Just saying something doesn't make it true. Where is the proof?

Third person posts also expose how much posters feeling are hurt.. always looking did hand to try and redeem Dak.. after ten games he finally throws over man coverage on the sideline with no safety help for an easy TD..

“You see the greatness!”

Run on, fragmented sentences, expose a lack of education and perhaps, the possibility that you're enjoying the lean a little much.

Oh we got a grammar **** here. Guys resorting to being a QA on a football forum when they got nothing of substance.

And you can’t seem to enjoy your wins because of my posts. Just because I’m not slob-fasting on Dak is what bothers you. Dak isn’t going to give you a cut of his check.

I am enjoying the hell out of this win and I will be all week long.

I enjoy cowboys wins no matter who the QB is. That’s the difference.

On Dallas last game winning drive, we got two PI calls and Dak didn’t complete a SINGLE pass. Both of those were third and long and one was questionable because nowhere did the LB turn the WR. An arm on the back doesn’t count as PI if the WR isn’t turned away from the ball.

Zeke touched the ball SIX TIMES for 37 yards. One of them was called back despite him plowing through defenders for 6 yards wearing down the defense.

Dak missed the throw to Gallup and then Linehan called the draw and his lead blocker Collins ran thirteen yards the field untouched before he saw his only defender.

Basically, it was a Zeke, a combination of play calling that got the isolation forcing the PI on Beasley with a wide angle and ONE major run by Dak, outside another 5 yard run he had on a first down at midfield.

Dak has only won two games when down by at least 10 points meaning two scores all going back to 2016. ‘Clutch’ is not the right word here. Game manager that keeps it close into the fourth where heavy doses of Zeke and some read options are called is what really happening.
So because one of the penalties was “questionable”, Dak deserves no credit for either of those 2 plays?

LOL. As if neither of those plays would’ve been completions if not for the penalties. Just laughable.

“It wasn’t clutch because we weren’t down by 10+ points!!”

And if we WERE down by 10+ and Dak brought us back, you’d simply blame Dak for the team being behind in the first place.

Wipe that egg off your face. You missed a spot.

Romo didn’t rude anybody. Romo threw 31 times in the first game in 2009 and blew open the game 27-7 by and those RBs averaged YPC in the second half in a blow out and eating up clock. Throwing 31 times in one half and running a handful in the second is not true definition of riding a RB.

Felix Jones had a plus 70 yarder in garbage time halfway through the third that obfuscated the YPC
of that RB you claim Romo rode. It was the exact opposite. They rode him.

And those RBs ran backwards against the Vikings all second half, while game was still in 17-3.
You did not reply to the fact that Romo had the benefit of a good defense so I will assume you concur.

However, when it came to the running game, their contribution wasn't limited to the playoff games. Felix was just as responsible for the team's late season rally as any other player.

In the last four games of the 2009 season Felix averaged 5 yards a carry as the Cowboys went 3-1. Felix averaged 5 yards a carry in the Viking playoff game.

There was no point in the 2nd half where the game was still close, they we're down by 14 at the half. Felix started the 2nd half with consecutive carries of 16 and 9 yards. He averaged 7 yards a carry in the 3rd. The 4th quarter was garbage time, they were down by 17 and then by 24, then by 31as they constantly attempted to pass.

As for the Eagle playoff game, the first score was aided by a defensive pass interference for 40 yards, another drive started at the Eagle 18 yard line due to the defense recovering a fumble, another TD drive before the end of the half started in Eagle territory due to yet another fumble recovery.

Romo didn't blow the game open, the great defense that Romo supposedly never had did it.

Look on the first page of this thread, the second post. See who first inserts "Romo" into the conversation.
Hint: It aint a Romo lover. ;)

Watching replays of yesterday's game, I think Dak shouldn't have extended the ball out while airborne on that 3rd-and-14 run once he had crossed the first down marker. It was unnecessarily risky (he came extremely close to fumbling the ball, which could have been a Seattle touchback). It was going to be 1st-and-goal at the 1; Dallas would have had multiple opportunities to punch it in.

Really wish Garrett would coach this tendency out of players. It's usually unnecessarily risky to extend the ball while airborne, with one hand, in this fashion.

Averaging 5 YPC in situational situations does not qualify as a running game or being Carried by running game no matter how you try and spin it.

31 pass attempts by Romo in the first half is what happened. We didn’t ride any running game.

Romo was hamstrung by an OC who had no clue how to field a RG.

You clearly lost sight of what the discussion was.

So now we are supposed to assume imaginary completions when Dallas was in third and long both times in the first place and one when the LB was playing right coverage..

1. One wasn’t even a penalty and the LB was right there. A hand on the back doesn’t constitute PI unless you turn the body. It was actually defended perfectly.

2. The other was specifically because Linehan got the matchup and Beasley had nobody on top. In actuality so was the first, because Linehan got the WR matchup on the LB he wanted.

So actually, no Dak doesn’t get credit other than being a bus driver for two incompletions especially on third and long that bailed the offense out outside Zeke rushing for 6 times that while drive and Dak not completing a single pass and Linehan’s good play calling.

Skip to 9:20 and tell me that’s not interference. Go ahead.

Generally speaking, defenders commit those penalties when they’re beaten on a play.

Or they could be making those plays, because the defenders are right there in coverage to actually make the play on the ball like the Seattle LB who broke exactly when Gallup made his break and was right there.

In actuality, the only reason it looks like a turn is because Gallup’s leg got tangled with the Seattle LB and he tripped and that was a bail out call particularly in real time.

That argument of ‘being beaten’ is like me saying WRs like Gallup generally don’t start walking off the field like that, unless they know it’s not PI.

That being said, again the only thing Dak gets credit for is being a game manager that drive with Linehan getting whatever matchup he wanted and Zeke rushing 6 times for 36 yards with Dak not completing a single pass.

Dumbest post of the year.

Dak takes 07 cowboys to the Super Bowl. I wish we had a team that good
