Because their backup QB was beyond awful and they didn’t have Zeke.

I know what you’re trying to do but it’s not as clever or as smart as you think it is.

Everyone knows Dak walked into a great situation. Like everybody but you I guess.
So if you know what I’m trying to do then you’ll know the answer to this next question…..

If Matt Cassel went 11-5 with the Pats…..Brandon Weeden a former 1st round pick…..failed with this group…then how on earth were they this good? A lowly 4th round rookie out performed them which is a credit to him?

And you want to credit Zeke….McFadden was back up to start the season behind Joseph Randle…he had over 1k rushing yards. The run game was productive and still 4 wins.

The media and some fans tend to overrate Cowboys players. Have you noticed what has happened to these guys once they leave here? Dez? Retired. Witten? Retired. Terrance Williams? Arena Football League. Lance Dunbar? XFL. Brice Butler? But this team was so stacked they were litter out of the league a year or so later.

I’m not even sure why this is going back and forth. Dak got put in an incredible situation. The 4 wins the year before has nothing to do with this. It’s the product of a bad backup QB and Dez also being hurt. It’s not hard. You have a young top back, a top line, 3 tough WRs and everyone has a healthy year. It was optimal for a rookie. It’s not a slight on him but last year was probably the worst roster. He’s had plenty of talent so far.
The point you guys are missing is supporting cast means nothing if you suck. That’s the point. Anyone can’t just line up at quarterback and play. People do this with Jalen Hurts too. Why should a guy get discredited because his team was good? There are guys who suck with good teams every year.

I’m not sure why I’m a “you guys.” Independent response. I also said it had nothing to do with how Dak played. He had a great rookie year etc. I’m just responding to the idea that he somehow has been handcuffed with low talent. I see it yearly…”they need to get him 2 WRs, a new LT, etc” He’s been blessed. Overall I find this thread weird too because I didn’t know Greg Jennings was even doing important reaction videos or that Daniel Jones was so good. :)

The debate is not about top 10, once you get past, Rodgers, Mahomes, there is the Allen, Burrow, Wilson level, and really there is a jumble for 6-16, and then another jumble at 17 and beyond. Being in the 6-16 range of QBs is nothing to brag about unless you happen to be #16 and you are talking to a QB in 17-64 range.

Who overated Dak Prescott ? Or is it your mind, your insane hatred for the guy ? Anybody not calling for his head HAS to be overrating him, right? I am bt far the biggest Dak Prescott supporter on here and I never said he was anything more than what he he is. 6-10 range. But you ............. people have to make anyone who doesn't loathe the guy into an idiot, mouth breathing Dakster.
S!@t's funny as hell to me

Well you tell me. How do you feel about Dak?
So you accuse others of "over valuing" players...but can't evaluate YOURSELF.

And seemingly ready to not only expect me to do it for you, but prepare myself for your accusations.

It doesn't matter how I feel. It matters if YOU over value or not.

If you do...that's fine. In fact your accusation would indicate that you might. And that is okay in my book. Fans SHOULD over value their own players. Maybe even start a few fist fights about it. Um...against fans of OTHER teams. Like Beagles. Not against....ourselves.

But how honest can ya be? Easy to judge others, eh?

I have "insane hatred for the guy"?

Show me what you mean. Give me an example of "insane hatred".

You won't because you can't. But if you want to try...maybe I can clarify it for you. I have MANY posts even recently defending him. Look it up...easy to find...very recent.

Now who' is "insane"?

...except Greg Jennings predicted Daniel Jones would eventually become the second best quarterback in the NFC East behind Jalen Hurts and ahead of Dak Prescott. It would have been unlikely that the conversation would have centered upon Hurts. Essentially, the thread has been about Prescott from the start.
I meant it as sarcasm.

With that said every thread on this board is about Dak no matter what the thread says

It's all dak all the time. Even after he leaves dallas for three years after, there will still be dak threads. if you talk about the kicker, its actually about Dak, because we couldn't score a TD and had to kick it, if you say jerry jones, then its about Dak and jerry giving him 40M, if we talk about parsons, then it turns into dak, because parsons got worn out, because offense couldn't hold the ball enough to rest the defense and its Dak's fault.

its dak all the time. he lives in their heads rent free.

What are you even talking about? I verbatim said we overrate our own talent. I said Cowboy fans….I’m a Cowboy fan. I stand by my statement…it’s funny you only bring up Dak though….. :laugh:

Always asking questions but won’t answer any.

You.....cannot answer a question with a question. You didn't answer my question then berate me for not answering yours.

Go ahead and laugh. It shows a lot about you.

Now...if you had just went ahead and said "yes...of course I probably do"...in the first place...maybe we could have had a more gentlemanly conversation. Kids these days....sheesh.

Oh how you HATE...people pointing out your hypocrisy.

When you accuse others of "over valuing our players"

then get pissed when someone points out YOU might be doing it...you know you hit the nerve.

I don;t even know you are...I didn't even accuse you of it. I politely asked you if you think you are.

If you had just admitted that "maybe"....I could totally respect you. But you went all haywire about it.
