is GB game a big game? or was Vikings game a big game? or was Chicago a big game?

just want to understand your definition of big game. and be ready for when you move the goal post.

The kind of game that when you lose, your season is over.
No moving the goal post here.

Although... there was that one time many moons ago where the goal post from the old Sugar Bowl ended up in my back yard in New Orleans- but that's different!
:D

lol, you need an explanation?
Which defenses? You asked for ranking of defenses.....why is it relevant? Which post were you responding to that you asked that question....there are 10 different discussions on this thread. There was no context to your question...

When your run game, OL and defense are dominant the league is littered with QBs who can do what he did.

If they can all keep that level of play then they can win a title with Dak Prescott. If at any point they can't and more of the burden falls on the QB they can not win. It's that simple because he's a fraud.
all you do is hate on Dak. Never something good. Only around 35 QBs in the history of the NFL has won a SB, its not easy bruh. In 55+ years we have 5 rings so i guess those other 50years our QB sucked
He’s the fraud

This game against the Vikes had me scratching my head because I could not believe how well Dak played! I'm not sure if I have ever seen him play a game as good as he did this game. I think Dak was in the locker room and it was actually Tad that was out there at QB. Anyway, that is the way a QB needs to play and my hat is off to Dak and the team today, damn good job.
He’s always played this good or the problem is later in the season he gets hurt. Now it’s reversed. He was hurt in the beginning of the season. A playing good at the end.

Never going to happen with Dak. We beat the Vikings great. Wake me up when we actually are competitive in the playoffs

Maybe not as long as the Jones are running the show…but he’s certainly a good enough QB to do so with a good team. Just like most QBs.

Dak is continuing his upward trajectory at the position much to the chagrin of the "Dak will never" yadda yadda yadda crowd. He's better now than he was last year and will be better next year than he is this year. May that fact continue to piss off his detractors and force them find ever more obscure locations to put the goalposts for him.
Don't consider everyone that has ever critiqued Dak negatively to be totally always Dak negative.

If Dak can build on this performance and take this team further than it has been in decades, then he deserves the accolades and anyone with rational thought will gladly be onboard.

Dak played an excellent game, and the entire team did as well.

There will be games where Dak will have to carry this team on his own, that is Daks next step and only unproven ability at this point, many QBs in this league have never lived up to that task.

I hope he shows that ability, and if and when he does, this team will win their next SB.

Having a team leader on defense and offense is the equation that equals success, this team is very close to achieving that.

But what QB is really carrying a team by themselves?

Stafford won the SB with the Rams last year. This year, their OL is depleted and their defense has taken a step and the team is awful. Is that his fault?

Mahomes, and maybe Allen, are the only 2 dudes that are at that level and when their team plays poorly even they can’t get the win sometimes.

Agree with you there on Mahomes and Allen, but we are a better team and a totally different team, better when Dak plays like he did.
Minimal risk, not a lot of throwing into double coverage in the middle of the zone.
Dak played an exceptional game, his best game.
He was reading the defense and taking advantage which was something I haven't seen him do in his entire career.
Dak showed me that he actually elevated his understanding of the game, he elevated his ceiling, and I didn't think that he had that room to the ceiling still, but he proved me wrong.

Last year Stafford had a HOF LT, the best defender in football, arguably the best CB in football and arguably the best WR in football.

Do you think this years Cowboys team is as good as those Rams? I don’t. Stafford is an above average QB but needed a good team to get over the hump.

I think Dak and Stafford are similar talents.

Typical response from a cheerleader because it's all your capable of. (Other than lying and claiming I said things I never said and running away when called out to prove it)

Doesn't change the fact that Dak Prescott isn't a franchise QB. None of your sophomoric, juvenile babble ever will.

Bathe in it.

If Dak isn’t a franchise QB I’d love to know what is.
