I believe Dak is good enough on the right day to go toe to toe with the best QB'S when he is on the same page.

We used to run some hurry up earlier. That is his sweet spot. Then pound the rock. We need the run game to be effective. Zeke doing the dirty work and Pollard in space. We all agree on that.

Sound defense. Playing contain and watching the outside. Then turn the dogs lose.

And I believe in Santa.:muttley:
Dak goes as far as the team carries him.
If you haven't witnessed this in the past 7 years then you need to take off the Dak shades.
All of us will have additional confirmation of the above when the playoffs kick off.

Prescott would hold onto the football, hesitate before he released it. Now he’s just firing the football and not worrying about the interception possibilities, if you can mentally handle the drama, that comes with the interception. I say sling it .

He carried the team, against the Eagles. The so-called best team in the league. Get used to it.

Gun Slinger all day


Dak has changed his style of play this year and is way more risky. And id be lying if i said i didnt like it (pause).

That conservative crap i hate. Throw it to your receivers and let them make a play
Exactly what happened, they turned him loose. So don’t worry about the mistakes just keep playing. I love the style.

Both... What we need from Dak is both.. we need him to sling it when it's the right time.. and we need him to drive the bus at the right time .. and we need him to run when it's the right time.
I think the Cowboys have beaten every team in the NFC , that will be making the playoffs this season, is that a correct statement other than Tampa? I think we also beat a couple in the AFC.

Yep a bit of both, I want to see the QB managing the game but at times I want to see the QB attack the defense. One thing I will say that I like from Dak is despite the recent int problems he has not allowed that to make him afraid of attacking defense. You shake it off and move on. Romo was great about shaking off bad plays and not allowing it to get him down.

The only players who do not make mistakes are bench players. If you play the game you will have bad plays and screw ups but how you mentally deal with those mistakes will say a lot about you as a player.

Butt fumbler.



I prefer the gun slinger QB with a slice of living for another series. Don't need to go 2012-13 Romo where the over aggressiveness blew big leads but at the same time you have to be aggressive at times to keep the defense honest.

Whatever the case, we can't afford a sluggish start on WC weekend. Maybe get him running early in the game, I don't know.

I have been saying it most of the season since Dak came back. Dak is trying to find that balance between being aggressive and managing the game. Like I will keep saying.. He's transitioning from being too conservative to being more aggressive. I think most of us would agree he's gone a little over the line and needs to dial it back a smidge. I think he will find it.
