I bash Dak more than anyone but he was great today

[Cydios]

he played like a top guy today. he literally has no running and a awful right tackle. it Makes no sense. tyron, and Zack alone should let us run in the redone and supposedly Tyler is playing great. you can't have 5 all pros on the line. but damn steele doesn't have to be a bottom 10 lineman.
give dak a running game, and him and lamb. play even better.

Shhhh.. lots of Dak haters on the board today who didn't really watch the game .

 

[RoboQB]

And this sounds like a whole lot of "If my QB isn't the best in the whole world then he sucks!!!!"

They played a good game today, Dak was just fine, and they came up short against one of the best teams in the league on the road. That's not "accepting mediocrity," that's understanding reality. If they lose to the Eagles at home in December we can revisit this conversation and I will probably side with you. For now, I think this was a good effort against a good team in their stadium. I will proceed to complain when it is warrented.

I'm certain I never implied "he sucks".
You, however, seem to be okay with a QB that can't seem to beat a
team with a winning record.

cmon man he could have overcome all the bull**** around him that’s what great qbs do . he’s a good qb . he is not great . that’s just factual man . it’s not about stepping out of bounds it’s about having complete control on a huge outcome and not delivering .

I don't think he is great. I do think he is good. I also think with a minimum of effort you find could instances where the Bradys, Rogers, Aikmans etc stepped out of bounds or had a fluke bad moment. Maybe not as many, but they did.

More importantly I don't think it was the main issue today or even close to it.

No, I just don't completely blame one player for the teams inability to beat a team with a winning record.

 

[SwagSurfer]

We giving Schoon a pass for not getting in the endzone?

 

[RoboQB]

He played his heart out. If that does it for you, great.
It still wasn't enough in the end.

In pro sports, they are graded on each play. Teammates and coaches
and GMs will all publicly praise their guy but in the film room, Dak will
not grade out well in the final 27 seconds.

It's not hate or outrage. It's just the cold hard truth. You have to be better
in that situation.

 

[Nexx]

23 points.. i guess that more than he can squeeze out against the niners.

 

[wileedog]

And I can't emphasize enough, if Dak doesn't play an absolutely outstanding game going into that situation, there IS no that situation.

There are plenty of games to lay on Dak. This is not one of them.

 

[Cowboysheelsreds058]

This is not on Dak today, he had some plays we like back but it wasn’t him today. Steele, penalties and this Doomsday III D has not materialized at all.

 

[RoboQB]

We giving Schoon a pass for not getting in the endzone?

Kinda tough when the defender is tackling him BEFORE the ball gets there.

Side note: Because they reviewed the play, the rule should be changed to
actually CALL the missed blatant PI. But that'll never happen.

"After further review the receiver was short of the goalline.
However, pass interference on the defense..."

It's like to double gut punch, that play... smh

 

[ChuckA1]

We giving Schoon a pass for not getting in the endzone?

Heck no. That was a huge mental mistake.

It doesn't matter. Apply it to whatever industry you're in.
In the end, it's always the bottom line. Get the job done.

They needed this one after the embarrassment in SF.
Nobody is saying it's one guy's fault alone but that last 27 seconds
is why your QB gets 40-50mil per year.

I'm surprised you don't know that.

And you are just ignoring my point. If the rest of the team, who also make many, many millions of dollars, had played just a bit better while their QB was balling out, maybe the whole 4th quarter is not an issue.

 

[big dog cowboy]

We giving Schoon a pass for not getting in the endzone?

Well documented that A) Ferg didn't push his guy deep enough and B) Schoon was grabbed before the ball got there and kept him out and should have been PI.

 

[RoboQB]

I'm focusing on the final 27 seconds of the game.
You're focusing on everything else.

All that matters is the final score.
The term "QB driven league" is real. They are the most important
component of the roster for several reasons. Most importantly,
they are the ones with the ball in their hands.

Yes. He played great but he **** the bed when he had the chance to win it on that last drive. Any competent QB wins that game at the end.

 

[ak47kaehu]

Dak balled out! His receivers dropped passes all night. There was no semblance of a run game. Had to convert on 3rd and long all night......O line collapsed in the most important moments....That make 3 straight good games played by Dak.....There's only one pat mahones.....what do yall expect.....

And the QB performed in top tier fashion for 59 minutes and 33 seconds of the game. But you have decided that for 27 seconds he didn't perform to your liking, so the other 59 minutes and 33 seconds just don't count.

Do I have that right?

 

[Gremell12]

He played really good. Hes top 5. Unfortunately he should have just dove on the 2 pointer and taking the sack was the worst thing. Dude balled out. Steele didn’t impress me much last year vs top guys and after the acl they hand him 17 mil? Tyron should have been right tackle all camp with tyler smith left tackle. That’s the least sacks we’d allow.

 

[Gremell12]

Shhhh.. lots of Dak haters on the board today who didn't really watch the game .

All the film junkies and analytics love dak. The haters only see the bad. Which every qb has been bad this year in spurts outside of maybe lamar?
