If Dak had started anywhere but in Dallas he would have already been out of the NFL.

I hate stats like that . It’s like Harmon Killebrew hit into the least amount of double plays in 67 since Barney Rubble of Bedrock played for Hanna Barbara in 33 . And Pat Mahomes is on his 3rd SB trip on only his second cartridge of razors since Tech .

Finally, an official Dak-Peyton comparison. Too bad it's only a sample size of one game. :popcorn:


....and that meant nothing given the game before (Washington) and the game after (SF) when Dak sucked.

Regardless, to reach and try and compare Dak to Manning is a joke and everyone knows it.

After 7 years Manning had 2 MVPs, 2 other top 5 MVP finishes, and led his team to 2 AFC Championship games.

You know what he did in year 8? He finished 2nd in MVP and the Colts won the Super Bowl.

You Dak fans are so strange.

If you believe in Dak then account bet me. I get the field and you get Dak. If he leds the Cowboys to the Super Bowl in year 8 like Manning did with the Colts I'll delete my account and never post again. If he doesn't then you delete yours and never post again.

How much do you really believe in Dak, AC? Deal?

OK, let me make this clear:

Peyton “broke through” because the DB rules changed after 2004, when NE DBs battered his WRs. The illegal contact and PI ruled were adjusted. All contact after 5 yards was pretty strictly tightened and enforced and this gavd birth of the speedy and small WR.

Dak would probably set the record for INTs in that era, as he needs major separation for his WRs. He couldn’t work with Dez and imagine him trying to toss a ball when a WR like Michael Irvin was battling for position against DBs in the Aikman timing-based offense era.

Dak is not breaking through anything in arguably the most QB friendly era of all time.

Guys like Elway, Aikman, Fouts and Marino would absolutely annihilate this league.

Does Dak toss 20 INTs next season?

He had 17 in 14 games this year and should've had more.

I think 20 INTs is a real possibility next season and it all honestly it would be the best thing for the Cowboys in a few different ways.

in his career he is known to protect the ball so even though you want that to be the normal Dak most likley it is not. Dak most likley will come back to his norm, question is can he play in the big game when it comes, now that we have seen a trend of late. INT's this year was a huge one off year.

How many games does it take to define what is normal? He hasn't had back to back games without a turnover in 39 games. Seems to be a trend.

Why do you say "question is can he play in the big game when it comes" right about telling me that INT's is not Dak's norm?

So INT's isn't his "norm" but the jury is still out on the "can he play in big games" thing after 7 years?

Okay lol
