I think his finger will be fine. Give this team some credit. With Cooper Rush playing well, and the team winning, they knew the smart thing to do was to let Dak heal fully before bringing him back.

And we Cowboy fans should rejoice! We've got two quarterbacks that we can win with. I'm having flashbacks of 2015. When Romo got hurt, we were hozed. Remember trying to win games with the likes of Brandon Weeden and Matt Cassel at quarterback? This season, our starter goes down, and we go 4 and 1 with our backup, and then keep winning when the starter comes back. I do not miss 2015 one bit.

I think Dak will keep playing well, and we'll keep winning, but if he does go down, we've got a guy who can step in whom we can win with. Every team does not have that.
We have two quarterbacks that CAN win. We have zero great quarterbacks.

Yah, he got greedy and threw that pick but he had 2 passing tds and a rushing td. Not a whole lot to complain about Dak today.
Will that stepped on left hand finger be an issue at all??
This is what dak does against bad teams,we all know that..it's the good teams he has the problems with..

The pick wasn’t a great throw, but that’s not the first time Lamb didn’t try to make a play on a marginal pass. We’ve all heard the cliche ‘The receiver had to play defense on that throw’. I had to watch the game on the Ticket over Roku, so I can’t watch the play again, but it seemed like Lamb could’ve done more.

I thought it was a pretty good throw. I initially thought it was a bad throw at first and screamed "WTH are you doing Dak!!?!?!" But after I watched the replay I was more impressed.. because the throw was actually dropped right in there were if Lamb goes up for the ball it's a completed pass or a PI. He flinched when the safety flashed. Natural reaction but you can't do that..

Dak needs to slide.......the play where his hand was stepped on is attributed to not getting down. Got the first down, live to see another down. A hero ain't nothin' but a "samich".

Get Dak out of the pocket and keep his throws in the 5-15 yd range and he's good
Kellen had a good plan and the bears weren't prepared.

That's true, but you have to go with what you got. Washington won the Super Bowl with Doug Williams and with Mark Rypien, both who were good, but not elite, quarterbacks.

Fields sucks. He is athletic.... so was Michael vick. 176 yards passing is never going to win those games in the playoffs. Yea, the bears run........ because they can't throw. Fields is probably the lowest rated qb in the entire league... ...but yea, hes great.

The 49ers got the the Super Bowl with Garapolo throwing 8 times for like 50 yards in the 2019 NFC Championship. Never is a very long time..

Last night's Dak performance was reminiscent of the healthy Dak we've seen in the past. Thank God. ;)

Yeah it was a sight to see. Many will poo poo his performance but while the Bears stink at run defense I think they were actually #1 in the league against the pass.. until yesterday. Dak probably messed up that ranking for them..

The pick was 50-50 blame between Dak and Lamb. Overall awesome game by Prescott today and the entire offense.
Not sure about Lamb. Assuming he ran the route as designed and called he did what he was supposed to.

Might not be unreasonable to throw a little blame on Moore. He called the play I assume. Of course, Dak is still responsible for execution.

Then again Vick did make it to a conference championship game which is more than we can say for this millennium.
