Dak outplayed Goff

[erod]

How long will the scratched record be played? We know he's won, but does that grant immunity from now on, regarding the current season?

He's regressed, but he's still infinitely better than Dak.

 

[Cmac]

He's regressed, but he's still infinitely better than Dak.

Then Dak should be in the line with many QBs that TB is infinitely better than. Now what?

 

[CowboyRoy]

He was rusty of course but bottom line he outplayed Detroit's Goff and other QBs around the league including Tom Brady and this is after a 5 game layoff. I'm not disappointed with Dak whatsoever with his performance in the Detroit game.

He can do whatever you want. Drive the bus, big comebacks, throw for 400, clutch drives at the end.

true franchise qb. Worth every penny.

 

[CowboyRoy]

he outplayed him in the playoff game vs the rams also.
bottom line.
the ugly ones count the same as the pretty ones.
protect the ball.
run the ball.
let the defense seal the deal.

How did that work against eagles?

 

[Typhus]

I'd take Goff over Dak every day.
We should hope for that trade.

You are truly insane, hope your kidding, and Im no Dak lover.

Let's review this for a minute.......

Dak was drafted in the 4th round.

Goff was the overall #1 pick in the draft. Wentz went #2 overall.

Five more quarterbacks were taken before Dak Prescott

I wonder how many of those teams that drafted a quarterback before Dak wished they had drafted Dak instead..

Yes, Dak was better than Goff and you bet that is a significant fact even to this day.

Most of you acknowledge that Dak is better to the degree that you don't even consider it an achievement.

However, the fact remains. The vast majority considered either Goff or Wentz the best quarterback in the draft that year. Today, the vast majority believes Dak is the best quarterback drafted that year.

But the Cowboys only won by 18 points and Dak only threw for one TD and the Cowboy offense couldn't score until late in the game. It's ironic because, if they had just waited a little longer to start scoring Dak would then be hailed for his great come-from-behind victory. Funny how that works.

Another irony that might be relevant to older fans involves some games played in 1970 and 1971. The Cowboys beat the Cleveland Browns 6-2 and they beat the Detroit Lions in the playoffs 5-0. You know, if the internet had been around during that time, I doubt that fans would be remembering Roger Staubach with as much reverence. The low scoring victories wouldn't be a tribute to an historic defense, the Doomsday. No, it would be an indictment on the quarterbacks and how they did nothing.

Fans would be just as wrong then about Staubach as fans today are about Dak Prescott.

It's as if fans never realize that the opponent defense is trying to do to the Cowboys exactly what their defense is doing to opponents. Some of those defenses ae pretty good and all of them have the Cowboys at or near the top of their list of teams they would love to beat. Believe it. The Cowboys will always get their best effort because of perception. This is also something Cowboys players are going to have to accept and use as incentive to toughen up.

Some call this an ugly win. It isn't.

An "ugly" win, if you believe they exist, would be the Cowboys beating the Bills in the last seconds in a game where our quarterback threw 5 interceptions.

An ugly win happens in games where you were predicted to win easily, you made so many mistakes that you deserved to lose the game, but you won anyway. That didn't happen yesterday.

You saw an inspired, well coached, but beat up Lion defense play big in the first half and become fatigued in the 3rd quarter where the Cowboys offense begin to move the ball. You saw a great defensive effort once again by the Cowboys defense. They did to Goff what they have been doing to other quarterbacks almost on a weekly basis. Is Burrow really that bad? Is Daniel Jones really a bust?

Dak came back a little rusty, took a while to get started, and helped the team get to 5-2.

Meanwhile, the Commanders benched Carson Wentz and Dak looked better than Goff.

Stack it as tall as you want, but crap is still crap.

Can he just quit throwing into triple coverage, that's all most want to see as far as immediate improvement.
Not asking for much.

 

[aikemirv]

The Goat is 45, the fact he is even in the league at all is crazy

Well I mean Evans probably dropped the easiest 65 yard TD in history as well but......

 

[leeblair]

You are truly insane, hope your kidding, and Im no Dak lover.

This isn't "Kung ** Panda".
Dak is missing an important ingredient- one that NFL caliber quarterbacks need.
He doesn't have the mentality to play quarterback at the NFL level. It's not an insult to say that. He simply doesn't understand what he's supposed to do.

I can’t help it if you don’t understand what your seeing.

 

[cowboyec]

How did that work against eagles?

dak didn't play #1...if he had we probably win that game.
#2...we didn't protect the ball...too many turn-overs.

Yes he does, and your being absurd.
Would I prefer with my personal fan love that we start drafting a future replacement... that's a big yes.
I'm more of a realist that understands that just hating on the player is not going to change the outcome.
I'm a fan first and want to see wins every week, and I'm going to stay positive that Dak can start to improve... baby steps are acceptable.

cant best the best teams with conservative game plans featuring zeke.

Maybe Dak can improve and lead the #1 scoring offense in the nfl some day.

Oh stop. How many balloons into triple coverage did you see Sunday? How many unnecessary sacks?

And that was against the worst defense in the league.

I'll let him get a few games in, but it looked so familiar. Usually he's good against bad teams and bad against good ones. But Sunday was pretty ugly.

He got 5 turnovers from his defense and a huge punt return from Turpin, but only produced 17 points and a last minute stat-padding tiny TD pass.

It wasn't good. Fortunately, the schedule gong forward is easy peasy.

Im seeing what is broadcasted to the entire planet with game access to view.
What have you been watching,, the stars at night?

 

[cowboyec]

eagles aren't the best.
but you can't win throwing picks.
if we had #4...we probably beat philly.

 

[Typhus]

Dont forget to put the cherry on top of that delicious sunday.

 

[SpaceCowboy99]

Cmac, Nexxx, Romo,

Brady isn't having a bad year. Even with his offensive struggles mainly because of the team, he's still top 10 in the league in most stats.

But yes, he's 45 and going through a divorce. He can have some slack. Especially coming off a MVP year where he lead almost all QB stats. At 44. He should have won the MVP.

If I were you guys, I would avoid talking about him. You look like morons with very little NFL knowledge other than what happens in your backyard. Which is usually the case.

I'd love to see Dak improve! I'd cheer him on!
But he's been coddled for six years and never learned how to do his job. He plays the same as he did in college.
