I don't believe Dak will just come in and light it up

[Big D]

Stats lol

I really believe that some fans take pride in Dak having pretty stats in losses.

I mean why else would you highlight players performing poorly to prop Dak up in a loss?

Hating on Zeke, Lamb, our rush defense, our defensive in general, all just to try and make Dak look better.

When I say "Dallas Prescott fan" this is what I'm talking about.

P.S. Dak stinks even if we win those game. Dak's skills and abilities are why I think he stinks, not because he can't lead us to anything in the postseason.

Allowing 273 rushing yards is a stat

14 penalties is a stat

zeke getting 12 carries -stat

wr's dropping balls, kicker muffing kicks, linemen missing blocks - stat , stat ,stat

It's not all about Dak for me like you say but I get it that it makes you feel good to run that bs.
Daks abilities are greater than your ability to evaluate them.

Why didn't you go through all the wins when you brought up the winning percentage and highlight the games Dak was carried in like you went through the postseasons loses and highlighted the bad play from other people?

6.

That is the number of wins Dak Prescott has led the Cowboys to without 100 rushing yards of support.

2.

That is the number of wins that Cooper Rush, in 6 career starts, has lead the Cowboys to without 100 yards of rushing support.

What do you think about that stat? If Dak is great then why can't we seem to win games without 100 yards rushing? You like to throw his teammates under the bus when we lose when it reality they carry him. If they don't perform great then we lose because Dak can't shoulder the load at all if things don't work. Basically, when Dak Prescott is the QB, if we don't get 100 rushing yards then we have basically a 7% chance of winning the game. Cooper Rush gives us a 33% chance in those games, just for reference.

Dak doesn't have to "light it up" He just has to not screw up.

Also: DET is #32 giving up 167.6yd/game. Dallas should be RUNNING this game.

Because it's a team game. He's on a team that was built to feature the run. Rush's success was mainly due to the coaching staff having no other choice but to lean into the run game for support.

Edit: Also I was responding to you and this: "Now do postseason, ya know, when it matters."

Dallas should be running EVERY game.

 

[Motorola]

I also want him to feel the pressure. I don't want him to panic about it. A leader feels the pressure, and responds to it, which inspires all the team even the defense.

Gonna be an interesting couple weeks...and the board will need a bye as much as the team.

A week without a Cowboys game is not going to slow down the action here at COWBOYSZONE.

 

[nate dizzle]

Dak hasn’t had a good game since he played Philly’s backups in the season finale last season. I don’t expect him to hit the ground running on Sunday so expect a lot more Dak bashing even if he plays decently and the Cowboys win. Anything short of a spectacular performance will cause the usual suspects to tear him apart.

You have my word that if Dak plays well I will be on here cheering him on and saying "great job Dak, let's keep it going!" If he plays like he did week 1, I'm going to shred him.

 

[USArmyVet]

Nope. Nope. Don't wanna hear the excuses when you don't give those same excuses to Dak. I dont care that Allen has more playoff wins, has he won a Superbowl? No. And thats all you jokers want to use for Dak so keep that same standard. Allen is a loser that loses in the playoffs and cant win a superbowl (thats how yall do it with Dak right??)

I dont care that Rodgers has 4 losing seasons, he hasn't went to a superbowl in 13 seasons right?? What have you done for me lately? Rodgers is a loser that loses in the playoffs every year and doesn't win Superbowls. Thats the standard right?? Dont be a hypocrite LOL

Would you choose Rodgers, Allen, or Dak to be the QB in Dallas right now?

 

[USArmyVet]

sure..

we're 1-3 with Dak in the playoffs so far.

2017 NFC Divisional Vs the packers L
⁃ Dak went 24-38, 302 YDS, 3 TD, 1 INT. 103.2 rating
⁃ We tied the game at 31 with :35 seconds left and a one legged Rodgers beat the defense. We lost on a last second fg

2019 NFC Wildcard vs the Seahawks W
⁃ Dak went 22-33, 226 YDS, 1 TD, 1 INT and 1 rushing TD 83.6 rating
⁃ zeke 26 carries 137yds 1 TD

2019 NFC Divisional vs Rams L
⁃ Dak - 20/32, 266yds, 1TD , 1 rushing TD 99.2 rating
⁃ Rushing dal - 50 rams 273
⁃ t.o.p. rams 36:13 - dal 23:47

and finally last yr

2021 NFC Wildcard Vs the 49ers L
⁃ Dak went 23-43, 254 YDS, 1 TD, 1 INT 1 rushing TD -69.3 rating definitely not his best game but far from horrible
⁃ Zeke got 12 carries 13 yards - going into a game everyone knew we had to lean on the run. (I’m sure it was all dak hogging the spotlight right? )
⁃ Lamb caught 1 of 5 targets for 21yds
⁃ 14 team penalties for 89 yards. (Again, all Dak right?)
⁃ Dak sacked 5 times. Garappolo - 0 (Dak has got to block better for himself I know)
⁃ 49ers rushed for 189 yds. (Perhaps if Dak wasn’t qb we wouldn’t have been gashed like this)
⁃ 49ers dominated t.o.p. 33:59 to our 26:01

You can say Dak sucks because we've only got 1 playoff win out of 4 but you're only convincing yourself when saying we're losing these games because of Dak and his subpar play.

Show me Dak's playoff games stats broken down by quarter.

I'll help:



4th quarter

17 of 25 233 yards 2 td 1 int

I wish more fans would cheer him on, but you have a bunch of losers here who pull against him. They want him to play poorly so the team will move on from him.

 

[shabazz]

I'm sorry if there was any confusion...i am a HUGE Dak Prescott fan. I really don't get it at all when people hate on him. He is the LEAST hatable player in the NFL who has had to overcome so much in his life just to get where is right now.

I am also a huge Dallas Cowboys fan...I can look at both objectively.

If i come across as "emotionally attached" it is because of what I just stated. It is irrational to me that people would attack the guy both personally and football related.

Nobody hates the guy on a personal level, however you and a small group consider any critique of his game to be hating.

The term hating should be left to be used by teenage girls like it used to be.

 

[shabazz]

I'm taking Allen all day long!!!!!

Interesting...the one playoff game we won featured zeke.

 

[Rockport]

You clearly have reading comprehension issues or you're insane. Here's exactly what I said: "Yes, Moore sucks but Dak is not innocent." If they're abandoning the run and the QB is contributing to that, then yes, he's partially at fault. So no, I never once said it's all on the QB. You might try not being insane and actually reading what is said rather than some delusional version you think I said.

Please quote where I said it was all on the QB. I dare you. You can't because I never once in my life stated that.

Good game, you lose.

You’re playing semantics Nobody. The only they you said was Moore sucks and Dak is not innocent. What about the defense not stopping the run? What about the offense not able to run the ball? No, you said it was the QB’s fault.

 

[Rockport]

Why would I hope that? Do you think being right on a message board is important or something? I've been wrong before, don't care if I'm wrong this time. Hopefully I am and Dak balls out the rest of the year and we go to the SB. I'm just enjoying watching all that false bravado most of you have been exhibiting the past few weeks, melt away as GameDay gets closer.

There you go again hoping for Dak to suck.

 

[starfan1]

How many of them are available? If they all were available Id choose Allen then rodgers then dak but since my choices are dak and dak and no one else is available and alll my biatching on a forum board wont change the situation. Ill go with dak.

 

[Rockport]

Don't have to "hope". Dak has been failing for six years. Doubt that's going to change.

He’s been a top 10 QB for the last 6 years.

 

[Coogiguy03]

He’s been a top 10 QB for the last 6 years.

That has not gotten us past the 2nd round! How many have come after him and have had better success

 

[Big D]

Interesting...the one playoff game we won featured zeke.

Actually doing what you built the team to do works. It's funny that way.
