Dak joins Aikman and Staubach as the only QBs in Cowboys history to record 80+ wins as a starter

[triplets_93]

he dont need to be mentioned with them

Please do not mention Prescott or Romo, in the same sentence with Aikman and Staubach. (This request excepted...)

Congrats to Dak!

Good for him. He played really good tonight. After that first drive or two he started balling. What I noticed was hitting GP and Lamb in stride right in the numbers. Love him or hate him he was on fire tonight. I don’t care that “it was just the Raiders” because they are a professional team and the last 2 games our offense wasn’t doing well. Tonight it clicked. Everyone knows I am not a rabid Dak fan but when he balls out you got to acknowledge it. As for the overall career mark he set tonight you got to be happy about a 4th round pick that wasn’t expected to do much to put up the numbers he has in the regular season. We definitely got our return on that 4th rounder. Congratulations Dak!!!!

No kidding, I was p***ed when I saw that would have set a record. It wasn’t the best pass and CD did drop it but man that would have been cool if he got 5. But after a game if the only thing we can complain about is a missed TD record, then it was a good game.

Staubach didnt become full time starter till mid way thru the1971 season. Then missed most of the 1972 season with a shoulder injury. Point being he really only played about 8 full seasons.

Rogers military career also shortened his NFL career he would have had over a hundred wins and at least another Super bowl victory had he gone straight from Navy to the NFL.

Well Trent Dilfer and Nick Foles have more rings than some quarterbacks people identify as elite.

Explain that....

Well Nick Foles was Superbowl MVP - he played lights out.

Trent Dilfer and Peyton Manning's 2nd Superbowl win at Denver they both relied on the best defenses in those generations.

Wilson and Brady had good defenses when they won Superbowls but they have shown that they could have arguably done much if needed.

Dilfer and Manning #2 Superbowl are the complete anomalies over the past 20 years or so where the winning Superbowl quarterback solely relied on the defense. Otherwise the quarterback has had to make a number of clutch throws/plays to get it done at some point on winning play off runs.

Congratulations to Dak on HIS 80th career win. Great individual accomplishment.

Good stuff...

 

[MountaineerCowboy]

2-5.

Nuff said.

 

[SultanOfSix]

Ridiculous.

SB wins are a team accomplishment.

Nothing wrong giving a QB their praise for breaking franchise position statistical records.

ALL wins are a team accomplishment.

 

[MountaineerCowboy]

Trent Dilfer and nick foles have 80+ wins?....BTW I think Nick Foles was a good QB....he proved it and helped that team win a SB.....Dilfer just rode the back of one of the greatest defenses in history.....thats why the ravens cut him after the SB.....

They didn’t win the Super Bowl before or after Dilfer with that team.

He knew his role and played it well.

He deserves his credit.

Stop it. Playoffs are team records.

Except for the wins. Those are QB wins.

Regular season are individual QB records.

Except for the losses. Those are regular season team losses.

Ohhhh..... so you're saying that these quarterbacks won a Superbowl due to a TEAM effort. That's exactly what I thought as well.

This post wasn't directed at you personally, I just want to make that clear. I actually want to applaud you for an intelligent post because you, myself and many, many intelligent posters here understand that no quarterback has ever won a Superbowl by himself.

But the resident low IQ cowards that slither through our threads, paint a narrative that our quarterbacks (Romo and Dak) are supposed to be the first to do so.

Ain't that big a deal

says those who are excellent at ignoring reality

 

[atlantacowboy]

A great example of why such stats are meaningless.

 

[Established1971]

Just to put this in better perspective for those who do not know.

The NFL played 14-game regular seasons from 1961 to 1977. The league increased the regular season by two games for the 1978 season.

Roger Staubach's career lasted from 1969 to 1979.

he only started started 7 1/2 years

 

[SteveTheCowboy]

He's not winning MVP, but he's tied 2nd in TDs and he's 1st in QBR. Just wondering how anyone can hate him (and a lot of people do), but that's just me.

What makes you think people "hate him"?

Stats are fine. SB wins are better.

 

[SteveTheCowboy]

Funny how those Romo fanatics NEVER made such disrespectful comments when Romo was breaking such franchise positional records.

As soon as Dak breaks them, here come the disrespectful slanted comments.

Oh please. People hated Romo just as much. Eiother delisional or convenient selective memory.

They still do...10 years later!
