Instead of apologizing to the fans after humiliating us in front of the entire NFL world, the players have gone M.I.A., Micah is whining about excessive media criticism, and the family members are giving fans lectures. What a curse it is being a fan of this franchise.


Goodness, they can both leave. Sitting on the couch talking about “Rings” …. loser

Nah...i am sure you were one of the MANY on here who thought Dak would struggle without him and Herbert would thrive....lol
Nah. I was perfectly fine with Moore gone. My issue was I believed they should have brought in a young offensive guy and not just handed play calling over to McCarthy. I figured Dak would be Dak. Good at times, not so good at times.

Read my posts. Minimize the choke. Don't put the whole offense on him. There have been FEW qbs in the history of the league that can win a Super bowl carrying the entire team.

Newsflash....he isn't one of them.
well at least you admit that
Now if you would also admit that the prime reason for the failure for so long to really contend is Jerry and company you might be on the way to recovery

Notice those guys have shut up but k remember them and it’s the same people in this thread. Then never have any solutions or any realistic good ones. It’s negative.
You'd be a fool though. I was OK with Moore leaving. I didnt think Dak would just start to suck because he was gone.

I've been pretty clear on Dak. He's good. He's just not good enough. Swapping OCs isn't likely to change that reality with a QB this far into his career.

Given the failure of last week, now would have been the perfect time to just say, it's time to take this in another direction even if it means a few down years. Because what we are doing isn't changing the trajectory of the franchise. I was saying this two months ago - that if they spit the bit early, IMO, it's time to make some radical changes.

I just think we failed at what he preached all offseason...>RUN THE BALL.

Our running game got so much worse. Not a good combo.

Our OL coach has to go at a minimum. Need to swap a guy or two out and I am circling Josh Jacobs as a must in FA if he makes it.

I mean I echo the same sentiments….none of this is working. And like I’ve said I don’t think it would ever work. Our issues aren’t just at QB. We are trying to recreate the wheel. We are trying to win a SB in a way that hasn’t proven to work. So no, I don’t think a simple change at qb would fix our issues. I know it won’t. A simple coaching change won’t fix it. This isn’t directed towards you specifically but for some in this fanbase it’s easier to pretend like Dak is why have our issues. But this team will always fall short. They could be a All Pro team snd fall short because this structure is not how you build a winner.

But even saying all that….I simply want something new to watch. It shouldn’t take 12 years of Romo or 10 years of Garrett or 8 years of Dak or hell 30 years of Jerry.

But he eats up a significant amount of cap space. So it isn't an ideal situation to have your QB be that much of an anchor on your cap but then you have to go out and spend a lot of money to protect him from struggling in important spots.

That doesn't make much sense.

Who we gonna get. Lance. Maybe wentz. Let’s blow up a 12 win a season team and start over with a rookie. And trade Parsons for 32 first round picks. It don’t work like it did in the 90’s.

JJ believes in his top 10 QB. Complain till your blue in the face. Next year we will go on a win streak and people will start to or want to start believing. If we have a run game and can stop the run then we will move on in the playoffs.

We have seen this team get eaten up by niners and some other teams before the playoffs. Dak needs a run game. And more talent around him than brady needed to succeed.

And believe me I am as pissed at him as the rest. I was hoping if he had to throw it 60 times because our Defense couldn’t stop them that he would play like he did against bucs.

I think Mike wanted to run the ball and the run game sucked. He had to abort his plan. Steeles regression and the offense line coach are a big reason for the regression.

Our issues aren't just the QB. But they do involve the QB.

Now was the perfect time to just start over. You had a HC/OC on his last year and just got blown out. You have a QB with a massive cap hit that needs an extension if you want to lower the cap hit. You have a DC looking for other jobs.

There isn't a more ideal time to make massive changes.

You know things are bad when we’re hearing from the players relatives. That’s three that I know of.

It has been bad regardless of the quarterback. When a team collectively chokes you have an issue that can’t be corrected by one person. Dak is not why Micah had 1 pressure on Sunday.

I’ve never seen it before I mean Tad always talks and Zeke’s mom would say some things but this is overkill. How stupid can you be to do this? You only get your family member when you do this.

They spent 11 million on a rb that looked like a shell of himself.

Don't do that. You could have got better production from half that cap number.

Same as they did with Gallup....have to stop paying these guys off major injuries.

We have a bingo. Your last sentence. After Jimmy left JJ wanted to do it himself with his puppet HC. JG was easy to control. So he stayed the longest. Now we have MM who is much better than JG. He has us at 12 wins a year and playoffs right now. No way JJ gets rid of him. JJ is still in control. I wouldn’t be surprised if he calls to the sidelines during games and lets him know what he wants in the next series.

If you were HC would you have kept running Pollard into the clogged line all year knowing he has no punch. He ain’t a hammer. Now if you were the owner and wanted your money on the field and paid this 3 or 4 million dollar a year RB 10 million bucks. He would be on the field. Any HC worth anything would know he can’t get it done and would change RBs out to find a hammer and put him out there no matter how much or little he made. But MM is being told to play him. Malik is a better hammer than Pollard. Never got a chance. Luepke had an unfortunate fumble but was picking up short yardage and would probly provide more of a hammer but nothing. Dowdle is ok and was better earlier in the game than Pollard.
