Dak will play on Christmas against the Washington Commanders

[SpaceCowboy99]

Cool, another Christmas Festivus miracle!

You must suck at investing.

In no way shape or form do you put the highest paid player in the NFL on the field in a lost season. Especially that field.

Dak gets hurt. Now you’re starting the season without your starting QB because you’re just absolutely mind numbingly stupid?

Makes 0 sense.

Jerry addressed this in the media scrum after the game.

It’s not Dak, or any players.
It’s not the coaching staff.
It’s Jerry

And every reason is about marketing, media, and money.

0:37 mark

Jerry is asked about playing starters after being mathematically eliminated.

He’s asked about why we are playing starters now that we’re eliminated

1. “We have a lot of people that want to watch us play good football” (hah), consequently I feel strongly about playing all of our key players.
2. “The only time I’ve hesitated was the the immediacy when you have a player and, uh, you’re in the playoffs already automatically and you don’t want to have a player nicked up as you get to the playoffs in a two or three week period of time”
3. “I’m not, uh, I don’t, uh, I would hope to, uh, be aware enough to know if youre playing somebody this year you won’t have him for next year. Thats pretty far out.

this is truly garbage time stats! but jones boys want a win, and shotty wants a win, and I want a win, due to a wager I made lol.
It is a national game too, so the circus show has to go on !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Worst show on turf.

 

[rambo2]

I think we all already know Bazooka Joe is not the long term answer… so it makes no difference really.

How do we know?

 

[khiladi]

Milton is not the QB of the future… look to drafting a replacement instead of this lame teasing idea..

 

[Ranching]

did you see i tagged you earlier about coming for xmas cookies

Yuck!! You complain about him and now you're sucking up.

 

[5Stars]

We will have to wait another week to possibly see Milton.

here we gooo....

Hear comes Santa. No SB!

No soup for you. Dak must stay, point to the sky. Until next year.

lol i knew you would say something like that haha. we're gonna go see coog and sample his freshly baked xmas cookies. wanna join us, Coach?

 

[Adiba1977]

They need Dak to throw for 300 w/ 3 tds and get another win so his record doesn't look so bad since signing that contract.

I need that for fantasy. Trying win the chip. Need 3 tds. 2 to Pickens.

Hell no! I don't like elves....Bah Humbug!

[exciter]

ugh. Do they really just want to win or is Jerry afraid if they give Milton the weapons, he might look decent. I know crazy on my end but I absolutely do not trust a narcissist and their motives.

Nationally televised game on Xmas day.
A potato has the basic reasoning skills to realize they're going to play all available starters and try to win. Just as every other team in the league would if given the exposure!

I don't believe Jerry wants to end the season giving up 50+ points a game, with a 3 and out offense.

Only fair to Netflix who paid a ton for the game

Maybe he's trying to impress Kay Adams

Are the stars playing for glory?
Are they playing re the "rivalry."
Are they playing to get us a moot win?
Are they playing to a bizarre draft strategy?
Are they playing for merchandizing?
Or for Dak's vain glorious stats?
Are they playing to give us a good show?
Are they playing because it is the Cowboy way since 1995?

Nah, Milton has been a big waste of time. Coming in and fumbling right away because he was careless with the football means he isn't football smart. Can't coach guys like that up.

 

[Blitzen]

The season was lost during the off season.

Wake up, Jerry wants to sell tickets.

Playing Backflip Bazooka Joe is not going to get any young WR development.

There is no development to be had for the wide receivers in games the opponent is giving the game away. Sit as many starters as possible except for Rookies and 2nd year guys

 

[Ironicalicon]

If they're keeping Milton as the backup, they really need to just put him in for game experience. We're eliminated anyway. If they already know he's not it, put him in anyway to keep Dak freaking healthy for next year. Draft a QB early, make him the back and sit him behind Dak so he learns. Duh?

It's like they don't think it's possible for Dak tear an ACL or something. I mean, it's not like his leg muscle fell off the bone last year... Oh... wait...

Of course I don't want anything to happen to him but it would kinda serve them right.
