I am glad you are not in control of the cowboys or any meaningful business endeavor.

Yes..I get as fans...we just "take whatever comes". we have no control over anything. Just rah and cheer. Fine.

But...our coaches and execs better DAMN well project our playoff map.
I am glad I a not in charge either. As well, glad you are not in charge. :laugh:

I did own my own business, and it was very successful. I sold it, and it is still very successful. So my business endeavors are just fine.

What is wrong about stating one enjoys the seasons as they unfold. For those that don't and just voice their displeasure constantly, why do they even bother.
Just be a fair weather fan, and not watch until the playoffs.

You are not doing any future projecting.

You are saying " oh well whatever comes comes and I WILL ENJOY it!"

Not how a business works.

We MUST plan....to take on heavy adversaries.

I get it...jazz...we can do nothing. Wejust watch and cheer and that it. That's all we can do.

But if we can;t do anything...why be HERE then? Why have any discussions at all....especially if all we want is for people to agree with what we want?

I want to criticize our business model. You do not.

Now what?

Just watch the games and log out then.

Who here remembers that guy who repeatedly posted over the summer that "Dak doesn't throw a catchable ball.."

Dude where you at these days?

Please bring us some of your humorous explanations for how a guy who can't read defenses and doesn't throw catchable balls is now top 3 in passer rating, completion percentage, QBR, and #6 in yards per attempt.. You know as in "NOT dink and dunk."

Please come forth and dazzle us with your unparalleled QB knowledge. I would call you out by name but I honestly don't remember it. But you know who you are!
Is a contract year for Dak he's putting in big numbers like he did last time but like many have mentioned let's see what he does in January

Dak is the guy. That's all there is to it.

Meanwhile in Buffalo you have Josh Allen, who is revered nationally but is actually the quarterback Dak haters think Dak is. Hilarious.

So you made up I don't do any future projecting. That was not what my post was about. I know EXACTLY how business works.

So I must factor in what may happen in the future, in order to enjoy or not enjoy a season as it unfolds?

Like I said before, let's see what the Oline/Dline does in January. You can't have the kind of performances they've been having against SF and immediately blame Dak. The 49ers have whipped our Oline for 3 straight games, 2 of them playoff games. When that's resolved, we'll see a much better playoff Dak

Do it in the playoffs. Please, it’s been awhile.
Please send the memo to the offensive line the receivers the run backs and the defense and the referees and everyone else including the coaching staff please remind me when those have all shown up in January as well,,, I'll remind you they have it there's a reason Prescott has had issues in the playoffs it's been parts of all the team started out with bad defense then it moved to a lack of a physical offensive line no run game one-dimensional football and suspect play calling and game planning.. Been an issue across the board so let's try to keep perspective when we say him or he when it should be they IE the team...

I'll put a lead pipe lock guarantee that if you give Prescott a strong run game and a physical offensive line it gives them more than two seconds to Throw, he can deliver great payoff performances ON OFFENSE,

you know like the last four weeks we've been seeing the same problem but Prescott can overcome it against the weaker teams, but they can't win a games like the Niners or the Eagles game when we have nothing else and lately that's been the case in the playoffs and we've seen it rear its ugly head in this last month of games...

But again I'll give you a guarantee that if he gets a resemblance of a strong run game with a physical offensive line that gives him a little more time in the pocket he will have success on offense in the playoffs against anyone the problem is that's not what's happening we haven't had a strong run game in the playoffs against any strong defense including the Rams the 49ers and now the Eagles we're going to need the best of everyone to show up in those games in the playoffs..

You know Troy and Roger they had all those advantages in those allegedly great playoff runs that they didn't carry but hey they're all 7 foot tall and shoot fire from their arses because that's what people remember but what I remember is they had a great team that elevated THEIR games in the playoffs.

Our team has not a whole elevated against the bigtime front 7s..

The criticism has not been fair. Dak has played well in four of the six playoff games he has started. In fact, the only games in which Dak has not played well in the playoffs is the 49ers playoff games.

If you combine all his playoff games except the two 49ers games he has a 107.4 passer rating with 91-136-1099YDS-9TD-2INT. He also ran for 3TD's which gives him 12 TD's scored in those 4 games. Only one quarterback in this regular season currently has a better passer rating.

When you combine the two 49ers games, Dak has a passer rating of 66.7 for 46-80-460-2TD-3INT and one rushing TD. However, no one can say that the Cowboys lost these two games because of Dak exclusively. In both cases, it came down to the last few plays of the game.

As long as Dak and the Cowboys continue their current trend, this could be the year that he can put a muzzle on all the critics.
So you wanna give us the grades of the offensive line, the running back,s and the defenses in all those games because they were not great either against the 49ers. I don't care how well you remember the defense playing... I remember them giving up some big plays and leaving opportunities on the field.. they literally have not played well against the 49ers as a team that's the problem we keep judging this by a single player, we need a stronger offensive line which would lead to a better run game which should lead to a better passing game which would give us a better shot at winning if at that same moment the defense shows up you know we call that, team...

This team has not elevated their game against the 49ers or any big front seven on defense they literally get stood up and beat at the LOS...

and I'll SAY anyone blaming Prescott for that 2021 performance doesn't remember the 14 penalties 11 of which were up front not having a run game to play calling with suspect why do we keep bringing up just the quarterback show me the ratings of everyone else that didn't play well including the coaches... There has been a glaring problem against the 49ers but also against the Rams in 2018 there also was no run game and in that game the defense played like crud so yeah people blaming our January issues on the quarterback has been a tradition around here and they forget that there's more to the team besides the quarterback..

I don;t know my brother. I think I might be asking too much.


We do just need to enjoy the game. In that you are not wrong.

How is "dak the guy".

What has he won for us?


I don't expect him to have to be "the guy". But it is true he hasn't yet been.

You hit it right on here!

"we" spend so much time and resources crusading against such a very few people.

We have like 2-3 people that troll us about Dak sucks..... Yet SO MANY get unfairly lumped in with them and takes up precious conversation and board space.

How is asking Dak to perform well against the best, inspire the TEAM to also do that....a hater? Or needs special threads against so very few.

I will NEVER get it. But...I don't run it either so who cares.
2 or 3? :lmao::lmao:

I'll step up. Dak is a good QB when he doesn't have pressure or zone. I've always said he is mediocre when it counts. He's 10th-15th rank and always will be. I don't care that he has a good season here and there or his stats are awesome vs terrible teams.

These threads just go in my favorites folder so I can bump them at the end of the season when he chokes miserably or in 5 years when he is no longer QB and didn't amount to anything other than pretty stats for you Dak homers to drool over.

Dak is a waste of 10+ years.

"lol", and his team lost. He lit them up to the tune of 23 points and his team lost.

You need to believe certain things to have hope - I get it because you're not the only one.

But if you're spiking the football over stats in a loss, you're exactly what I'm talking about.
What kind of stupid logic is this? Yes he lost the game, and yes he lit the eagles defense up. The two things are not mutually exclusive

Aikman showed up in the playoffs. Where it counts
I loved Aikman. The best thing about him was his competitive spirit. He just wanted to win. BUT, he had the great wall AND the best D in the NFL when he was winning Superbowls.

In the playoffs Dak is going to need some help just like Aikman AND he is going to need to make some plays with NO dumb turnovers!

I

Some folks seem to need to keep reassuring themselves with Dak's stats. Probably because we've seen him in the biggest of games.

I don't care about Dak's stats. He lights up bad teams - cool. Do it in the biggest of games and win them. Otherwise, I don't care.
The voice of reason. For some reason though, some here don’t want to factor in strength of opponent.

I guess if Pollard gets 100 yards against the Panthers 26th ranked run defense we can get him into the MVP conversation.

wow you nailed the assignment if it was "Please wright a post that is 100% false" you should really look up how he does against pressure and zone... he has a 105 rating vs pressure...and a lowly 116 rating vs zone...obviously you have internet, see if you can find google...
