Imagine having a real defense and not whatever we trot out there every playoffs
My biggest problem is, the last two he has sucked and given us no chance. He lost the game on the road to the 49ers when the Defense certainly played well enough to win and he didn't do great against them in the home game. He was a big part of the problem against GB but the defense was absolutely garbage. The whole team was.

Now he's OLD and has broken down legs. What are we going to do, give him another half decade of blowing it come playoff time? Even if the defense is stellar? He's done it before. What makes you think he won't again?

I was gonna post this an hour ago. But the same Dak haters just keep pouncing on reasonable nuggets of facts.

The defense might be good in the regular season but they are AWFUL in the playoffs.
They weren't awful against the 49ers and it's no excuse for Dak playing AFWFUL anyways, which he has the last two playoff games. It's not just the defense. It's Dak being a choking bum as well. God forbid our $60 million QB covers for the defense and gets us back into games. He chokes and throws pick 6's.

Dak is a mid qb but.........I keep trying to tell yall. But when I say it it's me giving Dak excuses.

Something something draft/sign some receiver though

Poor Dak.

He is putting the numbers, but it is the defense who is letting him and everyone down.

We don't deserve Dak. I say we trade him. He deserves better.

The weird thing is he decided to eat half the salary cap instead of telling Jerry to save $$$ and go get a defense.

:cool:

That was the one time Dak let me down.

Every other time the defense let him down. His best chance was 2016. He was Roger Staubach in that game. But denied our moment of glory by Jason Garrett, imbecile receivers and, most notably.....the defense.

Zzzz, more excuses. You could give the 2000 Ravens defense to Dak and he'd still find ways to look like a deer in the headlights and turn the ball over. He gets all sweaty and confused as soon as there's something on the line and he still doesn't know how to read a defense after 10 years. He's a joke, a choke artist.

There's no saving him, stop pointing fingers and face reality.

The funniest part of this thread is people don't understand what Quaterback EPA is and just say Dak bad :laugh: Here let me help some of you guys out:

a statistic that measures how well a quarterback performs on a play-by-play basis. It's calculated by subtracting the expected points at the beginning of a play from the expected points at the end. EPA is adjusted for the difficulty of each play, such as the type and depth of a pass, and whether the quarterback was pressured.

Almost 10 yrs ago. He's old and had his time. We need to find the next guy. Atlanta is trying, we need to also. End of story. Daks peak because of his immobility is done.

Explain those pick-6s. Break them down. Let's see if they truly are Dak's fault.
