Dak lost his Mojo since leg injury

[Praxit]

..have you guys noticed that? He's not the same.

Before the injury he carried this spontaneous spark. He'd take off on boot legs by himself. That's unheard of now. Because he could run, it opened the game in his mind.

Now, he's a shadow of former self. You could see it last night. He plays scared.

Unless he cuts the sub-conscious deterrent from his mind. There's no safety net.

The world is watching you.

the whole team played scared. they were unsure. they had no confidence. they seemed frustrated.

Dak was just an example of what's wrong with this team.

but hey, this team is worth $8.5B and #1 valued.....we got something at least.

....as good as defense played. They seemed shy of Fortnette. They did appear scared.

I remember when Chuck Knoblauch from the NY Yankees couldn't make a throw to first base anymore from 2nd base. He couldn't stop thinking about how his wrist should move and had to retire.

That's what Dak looked like last night, looked like he had mechanics on his mind. 47% QBR before the injury, worst in the NFL and the worst I've ever seen him.

>>>Bam<<< you said it. Dak is scared for life out there.

I tend to agree, he is afraid to run and since the calf strain, his throws are even more off. My son said once (he isn't a football player but was a high level hockey player) that once you are afraid, it is over. I get the ankle injury probably freaked him out but if he is afraid to run or throw on run after his calf issue, then it is over for him. I suspect his issues are mental now. I get many here don't like him but he has never been this bad, yesterday was disgustingly bad.

"We"*the fans* got nothing but anger and frustration. The Jones gang has all the $$

 

[Direwolf63]

Actually things fell off the rails for Dak when he tweaked his leg on the winning throw in OT against the Patriots. Before then he was having a great year. He was never the same after that play.

 

[Killerinstinct]

Predictably Dak's play fell off a cliff after getting paid.

 

[Zekeats]

Dak never had mojo, just dumb ownership

 

[MountaineerCowboy]

He lost his mojo after the 2016 season.

 

[morat1959]

Dak didn’t lose any mojo. Teams had a chance to watch film on his weaknesses and adapted. Just like many other QBs who have a great first year and can’t change their game. For the 100th time…Dak is what he is. The only reason he was drafted was his ability to mix the run with the pass. What you see from Dak now is what Dak has always been as a pocket passer. He’s not an NFL caliber starting QB.

 

[PA Cowboy Fan]

Dak has peaked. It's year 7. I keep waiting for him to take that next step and he doesn't. And now he's injury prone.

 

[sunalsorises]

I have a feeling Dak would have bounced back next week if he weren’t injured. He had zero snaps in a live preseason game.that can’t help.

He sucked before the leg injury unless we were playing another NFC East dog team or the then Miami Dolphins......you get the idea!

 

[fivetwos]

Not used properly.

He isnt a pocket passer that can put a team on his back.

Jerry Jones thinks he is because he pays him that way.

 

[nightrain]

Dak has been exposed and can't get out of the funk cast upon him by the Broncos last year.

Well Jones is going to say "he is not going to stand for this and that we have to be better for our fans, our fans deserve better and we will make all the changes needed for us to be better, you have my word on that."

That’s what’s important to Jerruh!

"Roll up our sleeves."
