Ed Werder: Reducing Daks role in the offense!

[Sandyf]

To reduce his role, you have to have a dominate OL and 2 very, very good RBs and a number 2 WR that other teams have to fear somewhat. Pretty large order for 1 draft and 1 off season and doubtful Jerry and Stephen view it the same way.

Jerry paying Dak that ludicrous contract, making him the highest player in the NFL certainly does not mean that Dak is anywhere close to being the best player in the league let alone the best QB in the league.

Everyone knows Dak doesn't deserve the money he gets. The optics still aren't great. He could've done something like Brady did and not take the highest contract just because of ego.

 

[Coogiguy03]

Exactly!!! Just the fact we're all having this conversation says everything we need to know about Dak. It was a ridiculously stupid contract.

Try telling the fool who drew it up and waited and waited and waited

Not hard but there has to be some effort and a want to be good

 

[stiletto]

That's the tough thing to swallow. If you're highest paid at your position, you need to be "that guy" every week, every game.

Well ownership is idiotic so they are to blame mostly. Everyone knows Dak is a fair weather QB.

You don't get it regarding defense smh. Oh well.

The defense is always bad. Bad defense. They allowed a score how dare they. I'm still waiting for you to explain how the defense being bad somehow means the offense can just mail it in for half the game?

 

[pansophy]

Nobody really thinks these things through. The big complaint was that Moore never ran the ball, but then give him an offensive line that can run block and Barkley and he has a 2000 yard back. Suddenly he is committed to the run.

Our OL hasn’t been able to get a push on the LOS for years and so running has been ineffective. So we have to pass. But since we can’t run, we face less favorable passing environments.

Running game has actually looked better without Martin, which is crazy to say. Steele hasn’t been the same since injury. Rookie on the left side and center, though they have both gotten better as the year progressed. Dowdle has been fine actually.

McCarthy has been relying on a quick passing game to compensate. If we were more effective at running we would run more. Maybe next we can and if we do the story will be about reducing Dak’s role but that would be the wrong interpretation. We aren’t overusing Dak by choose but necessity.

 

[Johannes44]

But I bet you were all for Romo when he was playing?

What does this have to do with the current offense failing? How does Romo figure in this or somehow absolve horrific QB play today? This is like claiming that because Leon Lett screwed up back in the day it's all good if we screw up today.

Answer the question. I dare you.

Maybe moving the guy that's still working on his footwork in year 10 isn't the best idea...but whatever, if it exposes him even more I'm all for it.

We already know what Dak is and what he can do.

Imagine fielding a good but not great defense and expecting Dak to level up in the postseason. No I dont expect Dak to lead us to a win vs a good team with a "good" defensive performance from our defense. If you do then my point about low football iq is accurate

Isn't it crazy, in all these years he's still working on things that should have been settled years ago, Dak is clearly in year 3 but his body is in year 10 lol

Yeah, can't trust the highest paid NFL player to do his job. No one should expect him to actually carry the team or anything.

That's because he can't, he is mental and broken down, and it's only going to get worse.

He is not even the best player on the team!

LOL. Yeah, was sarcasm..

 

[Johannes44]

Answer the question. I dare you.

What question? Romo had horrible games. Is this some reason to say hey it's all okay because Romo played horrible games.

 

[5Stars]

LOL

Can you imagine a team wanting to reduce the role of Mahomes, Burrows, Allen ,etc in order to give them a better chance to win?

$60m bus driver …of a short bus.

A short bus with a flat tire.

 

[TheCoolFan]

Dak and Jerry/Stephen think he is elite. There's no way they would ever turn Dak into a bus driver and run an offense like with Rush. That's why it doesn't matter how great the OL or RB is, Dak will still want to throw it 40 times a game.

Wel, well, well, look at this. AC brings up Romo to try and derail the thread about the stink that is Dak.

Typical...

You are somewhat new around this forum, you will get to know AC's tactics soon enough. You say something about Dak, AC tries to turn it into a Romo discussion = deflection that does not work.
