How naive that fans want to blame just one person for all the playoff failures

[SteveTheCowboy]

You’re really hateful today aren’t you. Take a deeeeep breath and relax. It’s only football.

Im okay. Thank you for you concern.

Im not the one launching into every thread with false hater accusations. Prolly take your own advice?

The worst part about that all in statement is Jerry wasnt aware of where the salary cap was at when he made it.

The GM of the team didnt know the salary cap position at the senior bowl. That tells me everything I need to know.

Well that’s the thing….the person that insists on calling himself the general manager says that he was unaware of the cap situation.

There are people in the building that were aware of it, and also do the actual GM work. The whole set up is based on a sham and a lie due to Jerry’s ego, and wanting to claim his “credit” if things happen to go well…yet he still has the nerve to say that he asks himself what he did to deserve losing in miserable ways.

And I accurately broke down both INTs.

Go learn some football instead of spewing funny comments.

Horrible play design? You must be leg pulling. Everyone elses fault but dak, eh.

So its play design that caused dak to throw it directly into the hands of a defense parked in front of the wr? Your saying dak isnt smart or quick enough to identify a bad play?

Dak ran the play designed and practiced. I'm not saying he's not blameless for not realizing such a failed designed play, because he definitely is part responsible for not noticing that, but the coaching staff overall is responsible for designing, noticing failed designs and correcting them. That's why you have coaches and why they get paid well for it.

See how that works? Or does it not fit your ONLY DAK agenda?

Offense

You must have a balanced attack proving that you can both run the ball and pass the ball. The most important part of that balanced attack is being physical at the line of scrimmage when running the ball. The offensive line needs to dominate at the point of attack. Once you establish the run, it opens up the passing game. If you can dominate the line of scrimmage on offense, impose your will and take the life out of them physically, you’ll have much success.

Defense

The #1 priority of the defense is to be able to stop the run. It’s paramount to having a good defense because if you can stop the offense from running down your throats it means that you’re controlling the line of scrimmage. Again, physicality. Imposing your will on the opposing teams offense. It turns a team into a 1 dimensional team. Then you have them where you want them. If you can’t stop the run, you’re doomed in the playoffs.

Bottom Line

It’s all about physicality. It’s impossible to do either of the above if you can’t control the line of scrimmage. And you can’t just do 1 well, you have to do both well. Physicality is what football is all about. Controlling the line of scrimmage. The Cowboys haven’t been able to do both in the same season since the early 90’s. Yet CZ fans want to blame just one person for all the playoff failures. To put it nicely, how naive.

It doesnt matter how Great you D is, when your QB1 craps the bed and stares out with his Doe Eyes .

Chokota Blows !

Everybody knows this is the Ultimate Team sport and if you go back and break down every big game we've had that we lost including some wins like the Seattle game last year you can find flaws in all three phases plus coaching game plans and then add in the excessive penalties and maybe some bad calls but yeah there's not just a quarterback or a coach or a player that you can pick on in any of these games there's at least five moments in every game where you can find where you lost especially the close games that that Green Bay Packer game last February that's a whole different that was the whole entire team there was a horrible display of football with the playoff atmosphere at home with the second seed yes quite disappointing..

One consistent problem the last 30 years is Jerry Dumbo GM Jones, owner, GM, and defacto Head Coach.

how is he any different than anyone else here who 75% of the time starts a new post typically with the intention of bringing up a hot topic which leads to a flame war, which usually starts with our quarterback, Jerry Jones, the head coach, the perception of a historically bad off season, talk about 28years, or some lazy overpaid player...

literally that is what this place has become... People trying to get in their side and trying to pull people to their side that is how this place operates it is basically social media so you picking on him wanting to start yet another thread that will always lead to some hot topic flame war..

Not to mention that Cooks was wide open and Dak just stared down CeeDee (the first read) from the half-assed “play action” to the time he threw the ball and made it easy for the defender to read the play. If a receiver is wide open, where is the bad play design?

He always stares at his first read then throws the ball. It's like he is to stupid to learn how to improvise if he sees trouble. But, that is Dak.

Not always, but he does it more when he’s under pressure for sure.

 

[KJJ]

A majority of this fan base is more stupid than naive. You have to be stupid to think replacing a QB that has the 5th highest career passer rating in NFL history is going to improve the defense, running game and limit all the penalties that have us leading the league in penalties almost every season.

 

[MetalMike]

It's not naive to blame one person for all the playoff failures. I blame Jerry Jones!

 

[OGSixshooter]

Spot on.

Too bad many have become lazy in their analysis.

This is "muscular" analysis? "The problem is not the QB. Hell, he just came 2nd in MVP voting and had the best QB stats for all of 2023. "

One is a pathetic (academic pathetic) rationalization and the other is an untruth. They are both red herrings.

It's not analysis it's a distraction...3 card monte.

Dak is going to be QB in Dallas for at least another 4+ years. Deal with it like a grown up or not. It's up to you.

 

[Sydla]

So Quinn and his bizarre scheme against GB get a pass? Lol....take the Dak blinders off. I'm not excusing him, but the hate is ridiculous

Geezus freaking criminey..............

Are some of you people incapable of being able to analyze multiple parts of the team at once? When we criticize one player or coach or group, is it an invalid criticism if we don't then also list every other single problem or player issue?

One looks foolish if they can't acknowledge the reality that if your QB doesn't play up to a certain level during the postseason push and in the postseason, it's going to be tough for that team to make a SB run. That's not a Dak thing. That's a NFL thing.

 

[OGSixshooter]

There’s nothing left for apologists so now they hang their hat on MVP even though he received no 1st place votes. The really sad part is that JJ will in all likelihood sign him to a mega deal and Dakchoka will continue his brilliant stat collection with nothing to show for it. The excuses keep coming in and the usual it’s everyone else’s fault but Dak. Get use to it for the next 4 years or so as Jerry doesn’t have the brains to do what’s right and wave goodbye to QB who needs a all world team to carry him.

Wow...is it true that he got no first place votes? That's a dagger to the "Dak could have been MVP..." argument. Seems that people who watch the game wanted to give him credit but not THAT much credit.

 

[Sydla]

Over 400 yards passing and 3 TDs = did not play well at all???

LOL.

So to be clear, Dak played well against GB?

 

[America's Cowboy]

LOL.

He played better than to say he did not play well at all.
