Dez was wide open in that game for a 50 yard pass that inflated his numbers. I watched the entire Minnesota game and he couldn't do anything
Like, all four quarters? With that level of expertise I'd say you are now the default expert on this board. Can't believe we've been blessed with your presence. Have you caught any other bits and pieces that we could deign to learn from?

LOL you don't mind criticizing him?

Who are you trying to kid here. Sure you do and that's your problem.

How did Tony Romo flop up in his last big playoff game?

I'll ask again. Did you even watch the game 2 years ago?
2 years ago, oh how I remember. Let's see, before half time, he fumbled the snap and nearly threw an interception that would have been costly, they wound up with no points.

4th and 2, Beasley coming across the middle wide open for the first, your hero Romo decides to chuck the ball up to Dez Bryant with the season on the line, so he went home.

Your hero, not so much.

Honestly, I don't even know who could be referred to as a troll. I see the same doubters as there have been from day one. I see people who wanted Romo to return. I see people who aren't all aboard the Dak train. I see people who just have general concern.

What I don't see are people crapping all over him which was implied.
I'm assuming you have Risen on ignore.

I don't have anyone on ignore. But I know how to put certain people in a box and keep it moving. I know if a thread is pertaining to topic A, I can almost always guarantee the stances that some posters will take and then decide if I want to engage in that thread.

So why all the holding penalties? I would say the offense including the OL did not play as solid as they should have.
In the Minnesota game, their offensive line had problems with Dallas defensive linemen as well...

I agree, except that it's hard to be top-notch against one of the best defensive lines in football. Those other guys are damn good.

That was the biggest problem with our offense last week. All those penalties ....every time the offense started moving another penalty brought it back.

Romo looks real good sitting on the sideline where he belongs.
2007 - Romo with a high powered offense only managed about 200 yrds, only managed 17 points. How sad.
2014 - Romo, instead of going for the 1st down, cost his team on a 4th and 2 by throwing a low percentage pass to Dez Bryant. The guy is dumb in big games.

LOL google is a wonderful thing.

How long did it take you to look that up?

You are not even worth discussing this with. Because it's obvious you didn't watch the games. Obvious.

Chuck the ball down up to Dez Bryant?

You mean the one he caught but took it away from him?

Give me a break with your crap.

Why not get the first, keep moving the ball. But on our final down, 4th down, he throws a low percentage pass. hahaha

Dak has been outstanding for a rookie. But I will say this you want to be playing your best ball in December. Maybe he peaked to soon. I love what Dak has done but there's no doubt this offense is more explosive with Romo in (right now). These sub 200 yard passing games will bite us if he doesn't turn it around.

I agree and it made life hard for the offense Dak included but he still managed to make some very big plays that helped this team win. I always tip my hat to the other team, Vikes had a lot riding on the line and they played their butts off.

We're 11-1, when will it bite us?

What you mean to say is that you hope that he wouldn't survive a playoff run.

Even with that said, at this point it is indeed a question of whether or not he could actually stay healthy, no doubt. Because in my opinion if he could, he is by far the better player at this point.

I haven't enjoyed a season like this since 2014. I have been very impressed with Prescott, but all of the fans here that act like he is a one man show makes me laugh. Some of you want to bring up trolls, well that seems awful trollish.

There are alot of things that Prescott does well and there are some things he has to learn, but as has been mentioned, most of you act like he is above criticism for whatever reason. And that's ridiculous.

What's really ridiculous is you think a guy who can't move around anymore, can't take a basic NFL hit, has played a total of about 3-4 games over the last 2 seasons not only the best player but by far. And during last season, he looked pretty meh. 5 TDS and 7 picks. Dak has 2 picks in 12 games. As a rookie, Not a vet as Romo was last year.

Last 4 games Dallas has managed 35, 27, 31 and 17 points. I would say Dak is getting the job done. 7 TD in these games and 0 ints.

You guys can have the stats I will take the wins.

Yes, last two games weren't ideal. Dak will continue to grow.

Gnats are desperate. But the Steelers showed how inept the Gnats O is if you take out Odell.

Gnats O was pitiful last night, but then again ... they'll light it up against our D.

Dak will have a good game. Gnats D isn't much to write home about. They made their mark by beating up on the crappy teams.

There is a fifth dimension beyond that which is known to man. It is a dimension as vast as space and as timeless as infinity. It is the middle ground between light and shadow, between science and superstition, and it lies between the pit of man's fears and the summit of his knowledge. This is the dimension of imagination. It is an area which we call The Quarterback Zone.

He's done well, never said he didn't . But in the playoffs we'll need more. That is all I'm saying. He has regressed the last couple games. It's a valid question being asked. If he was hot right no one would be nervous. But many are asking if he's hit a rookie wall. It's interesting cause you have one of the best pure passers on the bench right now. So I ask myself if Dak struggles for another game or 2 do we put in Romo and take this offense to another whole lvl or just stick with Dak regardless of his sub 200 yard games?
