I have a hunch the worm will turn back in our favor beginning Sunday

I mean sure. We are at home. We play well at home. We'll probably beat Detroit since we are home.

Problem is come January, we will have to go on the road. And history shows, this team isn't all that good on the road against quality teams. So what they do against the Lions and then two dogs won't really tell us much of anything IMO.

If Tyron is out for the playoffs. Our season is over, but half of you will still blame it on Dak.
I mean if he plays poorly, then yeah, he should get some blame. A supposed elite, great QB shouldn't get a complete pass because his LT is out. If the Eagles lost Mailata and Hurts played poorly in January, would you give him a pass? Of course not. If T Williams is out and Purdy was average, would you give Brock a pass? Likely not.

There is still something to fight for, it is called the #2 seed and division winner.
Not much............ unless the Giants don't pack it in that last game, play Tyrod Taylor and he balls............. but that seems extremely unlikely.

Wow. The point is he will play poorly with Edoga at LT. Did you watch the game last week?
Wow, yourself.

Are you saying no QB can survive/play well if the starting LT is out?

Oh and I saw last week's game. Dak wasn't actually bad. He finished the game with a 108 QB rating. But that seems impossible given your whole if your LT it out, the QB is destined to suck theory.

This is nothing but pre-game excuse making for Dak in case he does do waht he's done in the past in some postseason games - struggle.

There’s still a chance however slight as it may be. Murray could give their defense fits too. Just need to lose either game……

He was sacked 4 times and had 17 pressures. 17!

I am saying when your blindside tackle does not know who to block the QB is going to struggle. I don't know what to tell you if you can't comprehend that.

I am not blaming Dak, nor will I if they are one and done in the playoffs. There is something else about this team that is the problem.

The Cards absolutely suck.

But maybe they rally for the HC who was largely villified in Philly.

Doubt it.

Great. But he didn't play terribly. He had 2TDs, threw for like 240 yards and had a high QB Rating.

So to just say, oh poor Dak, he can't play well without his LT and it won't be fair to criticize him in January if he does with Tyron Smith is just Dak homers making excuses for him before he even plays.

Except the QB didn't struggle last week without his blindside LT. Completed 64% of his passes, threw for over 250 yards, 2 TDs, no interceptions, had a QB rating of 108. They charged him with a fumble there at the goal line but to me that was as much the RBs fault as his and regardless it had nothing to do with the OL play. If they don't botch that handoff, the offense scores 27 points, which we would all have taken as a good day for the offense.

So, Prescott played well, maybe not great, but good and did so without Tyron Smith. So what aren't you comprehending when you claim he apparently can't play well without Tyron Smith?

So we played well in the 2nd and 3rd quarter?

We weren't perfect, for a variety of reasons, but your premise is that Dak can't play well without Smith. But the Miami game kind of disproves that theory as Dak didnt play poorly at all, he actually played decently, if not well. Certainly, he wasn't great.

The point being that basically saying Dak can't play well or shouldn't be expected to play well in the postseason if he doesn't have Tyron Smith is just excuse making from the Dak homers. And then trying to use the Miami game as proof is kind of laughable. He was fine in that game without his LT. One bizarre fumble away from likely scoring 27 points, which is a pretty good showing for the offense.

We always get the calls vs Detroit. We will win one way or another.
