Until Dak shows he can play well without all star support at every position I am not convinced of anything.

The facts are that Dak has NEVER played well when either Zeke misses time OR Amari misses time OR Tyron Smith misses time. Now imagine if Dallas was without all 3 of them. How do you think Dak would play?

If Dallas was without all 3 of them Dallas would still be loaded on Offense you would still have Zach Martin & Collins. You would still have Pollard, Jarwin, & Schultz... Your 2nd string TE could have made the Pro Bowl last year based on numbers alone.... but no name recognition. You would still have Lamb & Gallup.

Right now Dallas has more offensive support for its QB than any team in the league including The Bucs & Chiefs. But my question to Jerry & Stephen is if your QB is such a stud than why?

Right now Dallas has not just studs but future Hall Of Famers at every position surrounding Dak. Bottom line is when a QB has all day to throw & has receivers running wide open it is very hard to fail.

Does that mean that Dak sucks? No! It means Dak is doing what he is supposed to be doing. There is probably around 100 QB's in this league maybe a few more when you factor in practice squad. Could every QB do what Dak is doing? No. But probably 25 of them could put up the same numbers.

In todays NFL which is basically what Arena football used to be, pretty stats for QB's are everywhere. It means very very little. Are there any good Defenses in the NFL right now? I am not seeing any. I certainly do not see the 1985 Bears or 2000 Ravens.

I apologize if I left someone out or butchered the name.

These members are some of the smartest, articulate, & most mature people on this site.... and yet they are what I would call somewhat Dak doubters.

Couchcoach I would classify as highly intelligent & mature and I would put him in the Dak believer camp. But for others who are obsessed with Dak.... you know who you are. You do not come off well.

Everyone is happy that Dallas has a 3 game win streak. But in the land of What If game if the Chargers had beaten Dallas & the refs and Dallas was 2-2 everyone's perception would be different.

Has Dak improved? Maybe? I will believe it when I see it. Since Dak started his career 13-2 he finished that season 0-2. And than 9-7. 10-6 with a 1-1 playoff record. 8-8 & than 2-3. In 2021 he has gone 3-1. So basically slightly above .500.

Was Aikman a great QB? Probably not. Aikman proved that in the majority of his career that without studs everywhere he kind of sucked.

I think Jerry has built a team to win now & next year. And than the bill will come due. He has built an average Defense with a loaded Offense. The division is a total joke. So when will Dak be without all his amazing help? It might not be this year or even next year.... but at some point we will get answers to these questions.

Guess what, Montana is nothing without Rice, Aikman without Irvin/Smith is nothing, Manning without Harrison/James was nothing. Jordan couldn't have done it without Pippen, Kerr and Rodman, same with Duncan, Ginobili, and Parker.

Guess what it is a TEAM sport. It takes a whole TEAM to win. One person does not make a team go. They may help, but they are not the reason for the success.

If we're playing the "what-if" game where we lose to the Chargers to be 2-2, it would have been the fault of the defense, not Dak. Sure, he made a mistake, but so did Hebert, the QB all media are drooling over. I'll be real; I bagged on Dak in the offseason (or more correctly, ownership), because I thought he had hit his plateau and wasn't worth the money, and I've been happily eating crow all season. And let's keep going with what if. What if we beat Tampa, a feat that was well within our grasp? Then we're still 3-1 if we lose to the Chargers, or 4-0. Why argue who has the higher stock on a loaded offense that handed the Chargers their only loss as well as the previously unbeaten Panthers? Enjoy the freaking status while you can. You want to go back to languishing at 1-3? You want to go back to thinking about next season by Halloween? Have you not been along for the ride on this mediocrity or worse train long enough??

Our fans are absolute trash.

I know the board has rules against discussing the topic that is the *actual* reason most of you hate Dak, but we'd respect you a whole lot more if you just came out and said it.
