You liked what you saw today and in previous playoff outings from your QB? I suspect you would “love” to see Dak win a SB …even with another team.
Dak really only threw 1 interception. The 1st one, Cooks was held big time. Referees didn't throw the flag. Plus, Cooks never fought for that pass which was well thrown. Dak also has a few other passes that were not good. Overall, he's not the reason they lost.

If i had to guess, he probably was upset McCarthy rolled out the same gameplan he did against the 49ers

Short passes. Dinking and dunking. Hardly any motion.

A knock on McCarthy from packer fans was he always got conservative in the playoffs

CeeDee knew the fix was on and he lost respect for Dak. McCarthy was reminding him of the bag in his locker, but CeeDee was not consoled. The rest of the team was okay with the fix, because the powers that be assured them another successful year in 2024. Notice how no one gave any effort, and had no complaints?
See you in the playoffs/s

You would love that.

Thankfully, Jerry is not as ignorant. Dak and CeeDee will be returning.
This is not about what JJ is or wants. Its what CD wants.

Cooper was a good example for a player that was fed up with that bad play at the QB position. He decided it is enough. Money is not everything if you want to win.

Lets see what CD is made of.

So fed up that he kept his money and accepted inarguably drastically inferior play at QB, which is what the Browns have.

I think the players sometimes know in advance if Dak is going to have a bad game. They spend several hours together every day so they've figured out the signs of his nerves getting the better of him. Us fans only get the PR polished version of Dak. The players see the real Dak.

I saw some examples early that Dak and CD were not getting along. I wish I knew the backstory behind this. Could be interesting going forward especially considering the Amari Cooper/Dak history.
They're just taking a book from Brown and Hurts

LOL.. it would explain it. What I do find strange is the lack of animation on the bench. I remember those famous clips of Aikmen going ballistic at his receivers when things were going bad.. I remember Romo would get up and start getting in guys face when things got down.

For all the "leadership" stuff we get told about Dak.. we just never see any vision of him rallying the troops or getting in guys faces. If CeeDee is upset.. then his QB should be over there and fixing it.. not the HC. The HC should be calling plays, devising schemes, talking to his coordinators.

So I don't know.. I suspect CD was really upset about the first drop.. but the connection wasn't there early and then we just didn't target him at all. The game plan sucked.

lol...Amari Cooper was shipped out because he didn't want to take a pay cut and he took too many plays/series off. Jerry had seen enough of him.

It was really strange what was going on with Lamb. The announcers kept talking about it and were as confused as we all were.
But as you said yet another example of how Dak is coddled by this organization.

He has dropped passes before, but there was something different about yesterday's game. The Dallas sideline was quiet, composed and had no sense of urgency.

Why does everything fall on Dak's shoulders? He has been the go to punching bag for all the woes of this franchise. Maybe Daks birth caused the downfall of the team.
