they meant a lot....but the goal post just got moved. Dak and the offense has to score a TD on every possession or else Dak sucks.
No he sucks because he's a playoff choker and you don't pay 60 million for that and for a QB who needs a perfect team around him to just get through 1 playoff round and his salary handicaps the team from getting better which is what he needs just to be ok. You're too dumb or in love to see the Catch-22 (look that up genius).

Oh, Darnold just beat the 49ers, Mayfield is beloved and winning in Tampa at half Dak's price, and let's not forget this team went 5-1 without Dak.

We pay the offense too much for too little results. We average 22.5 points/game so far on offense. We have the highest paid QB (really NFL player) and the 2nd highest paid receiver.

Jerry loves offense, it sells tickets. He should have invested in the defense and not offense.

I blame Jerry for paying bums that don't advance us into the playoffs.
we are 6th in scoring in the league....which means 26 teams are worse. including chargers, packers, ravens, jets, lions, browns, bengals...with highly paid QBs in the top 10 averaging 55M.

but I agree a 100% that its all Jerry's fault. we could have had several other RBs instead we went for Zeke because he cost 3M. and no it wasn't because of Dak's contract, as we had room on the salary cap. and we could have easily opened up another 30M (I remember seeing a post about it).

Dak doesn't have it? You figured that out after all of these years? We didn't belong on the same field as that Saints team. That's how much better they were. Yeah, Dak can't play well under pressure. The whole team sucked. We better hope this was just week 2 rust.

Maybe we'd have more talent if we didn't blow 2 large contracts on a trash QB? Just a thought..

WR wide open at the bottom, but as usual, Dak got his WR he is fixated on. Coverage guy is just watching Dak the whole time from the left side.

He had the same issues going back to his HS and college days. His brain does not process fast enough in any phase of the game playing the QB position. I’ve been preaching this, on this board, since he got here. I’ve watched the bootlickers fall one by one the last nine years. Only a few Ms. St. Fans and Dak’s kin folks hang on.

Ruh roh. Sturm is thinking of leaving the Dakvidian cult?

At least Tad has a financial and familial motive to support Dak. These stans here are just cultists.
Last week I had MANY positive comments...but one I made was "we need a better run game".

I was told I was a hater and have a miserable life.

That's some cult shtuff right there!

And then we have yesterday's performance...and we STILL need a better run game. :laugh:

Same thing happened with Garrett. One remained like relic for a while after he left but eventually he slithered away too.

Was Troy Aikman the best QB in the league in the 1990s? Where do you think he ranked? Was he better than Elway? Marino? Steve Young? He was in the top 5-10 for sure. The Cowboys won 3 Super Bowls. Was it because of Aikman? He definitely contributed because he was a high strung guy who hated to lose and he pushed his teammates to play better.

The Cowboys won then with a superior offensive line, a superstar RB, a defense that played with heart, and they had a confidence you don't see in Dallas today.

Dak is not Troy Aikman, but there is no Emmitt Smith either. Or an Erik Williams, Larry Allen, Mark Stepnoski, Mark Tuinei, or Nate Newton. No one on defense of note besides Micah Parsons. We like to think our guys are good, but in reality, they aren't as good as we expect them to be. That goes for Diggs, DLaw, and anyone else on the defense.

Dak is part of a team. He is not great but no one man is going to win anything. Dan Marino would probably be considered the best pure QB to ever play the game if he had won 1 Super Bowl. But with all his talent, he never did. Over 17 seasons he played in 1 Super Bowls which was a blow-out loss to the 49ers.

Blaming Dak for losses like yesterday is silly. This team is just not very good and Jerry knew it wouldn't be. But the Cowboys know how to sell snow to Eskimo's and they certainly know how to sell their hype to their fans.

Did Dak deserve $60 million. No, of course not. Dak is not that much better than Stafford, or Goff. Giving him $60 million was stupid. But his contract does not make him a better or worse QB. It makes Jerry a worse GM.
I totally agree with you on all your points ands

I agree with everything you just said! In my post, I’m not blaming just Dak for yesterday’s loss. My point is that the Dak of yesterday, the Dak of today and the Dak of tomorrow just isn’t and hasn’t been good enough to lead a team to a Super. Whether it’s his physical skills or his non ability to win big games is going to be Dak’s legacy. His skills are certainly slipping so for Cowboy’s fans to expect Dak to get better over the next 6 years is lunacy. In todays NFL, it’s been shown you need to have a top QB and unfortunately, DAK is just a middle tier guy.
lets just find a "mahomes" and be done with it. Parcells said there was a 1-800-NEEDQB number we can call and make an order. I searched amazon and couldn't find any.
We’ve all heard this saying 1,000 times or more. Do the same thing over & over & expecting different results is the definition of insanity!
Jerry may have been a successful gambling oil man but when it comes to making BIG changes on his football team, he’s lost his balls! He falls in love with players too much and for too long!

Anyone that doesn't see that Dak is trash, I can't help you. He's following the same pattern as Romo and the trash before Romo. None of these idiots are winners, they are all posers. All good to great performers, but when it comes to substance and that winning culture, they all fail. Jerry has NO CLUE how to find a Super Bowl winning QB or Head Coach.

Whatever you have to keep telling yourself to stay sane Tad…
Good one. You don't know how to be objective, and whenever someone says anything positive about Dak, they're "Tad."

You're a one-trick pony and who thinks this team would be as good with Cooper Rush. You are stupid.
