You know that's not going to happen.

You don't really believe that.

Your fandom is talking and you're thinking with your heart instead of your brain.
Well yea I'm a fan. Sports is entertainment. If it's not entertaining then I don't watch, it's a real simple concept. But I am very entertained at the moment. Apparently yall are not, so why watch?

I think this is the worst he's looked since Pre-Cooper 2018.

He's already got more INTs than he did in the entire 2016 and 2018 seasons and is clearly on pace to have the most INTs he's ever thrown in a season and that's with missing 5 games.

His YPG is the lowest since 2017.

His Completion Percentage is the 3rd lowest of his career.

His QBR is the 2nd lowest of his career.

All that combined with the fact that he refuses to run the ball and this is simply the worst he's ever been.

We're winning games at the end of the day, but if you think we're going to make a playoff run with Dak playing at this level then I think you're wrong.
I say he’s playing better now because one his interceptions are happening in the first half of games. Still a big deal deal but it’s not hurting them thanks to the defense. His personnel has also taken a hit. His offensive line isn’t nearly as good and he’s playing with a rookie left tackle. Also coming off a hand injury that takes players some time to come
Back from. He can play better. He knows it most people know it. He showed you in the clutch when he can do just need to do it for 4 wuartesz

I ask the same thing. They watch because they enjoy the loss more than the win. These guys don’t even post after wins unless it’s ugly.

I don't want to have to depend on Dak to erase his mistake from earlier in the game.

I believe all of us would feel much better if that scenario was eliminated.

Well what’s the number if you’re saying a top 10 I would agree but it’s right at 10
I’ll be honest…I wouldn’t say he’s playing top 10 right now but hell I can’t really say too many guys are. Hurts for sure. Mahomes for sure….Josh Allen has stunk. Lamar has been hurt…. Brady stinks. Kind of hard to even name 5 guys playing at a high level right now.

I agree but if Dak plays conservative he doesn’t win that game yesterday. He can’t beat 49ers playing conservative. We’ve seen him try and he knows it. We can sit here and hope they hide Dak but you can’t. Dak has to carry this team. It didn’t mean throw it 40 times. But it does mean making the MVP like throws that require you to win a SB.

I told you a couple days ago that I have went over this with you specifically more times than I would like to count.

I'm not going to keep doing it. I've told you what I would do a bunch of times.
yeah, you just gave an non-answer to the non-answer to the original non-answer. still a non-answer..... spin away as you do..........

Let me ask you.

What do you prefer?

Keep Dak or move on as soon as we can?

If you really wanted to the Cowboys to succeed and you meant that you'd be wanting the weak links gone from this team.

We're never winning anything with Dak. Never.

Are you okay with more wasted years just so you can get joy out of laughing Cowboys fan that want to win in the postseason?
I am not OK. haven't been OK for 27 + years.....the weakest link? how about Offensive coordinator? who is still learning on the job? how about a DL that gives up 120 yards rushing to one of the worst teams in the league...and is one of the wortst run defenses in the league....or a defense that gave up historic yards and one of the worst pass defenses ever.....but yeah, I want Dak gone...right?

again, give an answer to who you got for replacements....or is it just a draft pick!!! give names or stay quiet because you have nothing....

I mean in your haste to dump on Dak you threw accolades at Lynch!!!! claiming he would have been successful in the NFL and argued vehemently...

I mean dude. seriously. Dak lives in your head....rent free

The thing is.....we have to decide what defines us....most of the game? Or that last drive?

Can we hang with and do that against 10-1 teams?
we did that against Minn. blew them away....we blew the giants away....

and no I wasn't happy with the game yesterday. Headcoach on down to the last specials teams guys

He's statistically the best third down QB in the league, and since 2019 this offense is #1 in the league in yards, points and third down % in games he's started.

At this point those claiming he isnt a top 10 QB have the burden of proof. The objective metrics say he is. The "feels" and "eye test" metrics are what they must rely on.

He's not playing like a Top 10 QB right now.

And that's all that matters. No one should care where he's ranked amongst QBs if as we get through the end of the season and into the playoffs and he plays like he did yesterday.

According to Lovie Smith.....

Its crazy a NFL head coach would have this opinion of Dak. Very odd.......




Has any head coach said much negative football stuff about a QB for the opposing team after losing a close game? Like, “yeah he’s going nowhere-our team just sucks this season.” Lol

Dak is pretty okay overall. Definitely good enough to win several games in the regular season. Needs tons of help from a dominant team to beat the best teams. Not unlike the bulk of QB’s not in the top 2-4 QBs.

If I was the GM/owner, I would build a team and continuously look for cheap deals with a very good rookie or career backup. Build up both lines of scrimmage, augment with rookie running backs, maybe one marquee wide receiver, one marquee cornerback, and good coaching.
