Is the Bucs game a do or die game for any Dak fans?

and it was the exact same ****** throw, just baffles me
Bad throw, bad decision trying to get it to Brown ahead of good coverage, but that double INT narrative sounded stupid to me when the announcer said it. What I saw on the first one was a DB diving to the ground for a low pass with it going off his shoulder. He was flat on the ground, so I don’t see that as a possible pick six, just a low pass the DB dove at and touched.

The real INT was just a garbage decision I don’t expect from a veteran.

What it will take for me to be "out on Dak" is pretty simple. For him to no longer be the quarterback of my favorite team. Other than that? I'm pretty much going to always be "in on Dak."

Some people can't be helped...

Plenty of good QB's in the other rounds. Get one early on day 3, work with him and develop him and see if he can play in this league.

IMO we should be doing that every other year until we find the next good Cowboys QB.
Jimmy always brought in veteran backups, and it saved us several times. With Romo and now Dak, we have always had garbage at backup QB. Yes, Dak as the third string developmental guy set every record for rookie QBs, but that was lucky. We went into that season with a really good offense, the usual garbage defense, and Kellen freakin’ Moore as our primary backup.

My theory has always been have one veteran backup with some starting experience, and then I want a young guy who can take off and make plays with his legs while you try to develop his passing. A backup who can run and move the chains and punish the pass rushers for getting out of their lanes helps you put some points on the board and avoids so many 3 & outs.

Dak has to step up. QB1 folded vs the 49ers, but ppl on here literally blamed everyone else. In or out? Everyone should be out until Dak wins multiple playoff games. There's still a chance for dude to do something he has an opportunity, hope he doesn't wet the sleep number bed.

I think if he chokes against the bucs he will be forever trying to shrug off the failure label.

He and Kirk cousins will be twins.

Come on CR get real the guy is a PS reject. I don’t get this view anymore than I get the Dak is god take But I would give the nod to the Dak folks on this. Where oh where does this stuff come from
Cooper Rush is 5-1, the only game he ever turned it over was against the #1 seed. He should have been given the team but $$$$$$$$$$$$$$ talks and they were like "well we paid Dak we gotta give him his job back!" then he failed again. It's always about $$$$$$$$$$$$$$.

I can't believe we've opened as 3 point favorites.

Maybe they figured we got our bad game out of our system. The Cowboys have a habit of bouncing back after a bad game. It doesn't change anything though. The Cowboys should beat Tampa and the only reason they might not is they can't get out of their own way. But unless they get to the NFCCG I won't be impressed.

Monday’s game is not do or die as far as Dak goes.

I’ve decided long ago.

Time to move on from him and that cruise ship anchor contract this FO gave him.

I’m quite certain there are many Cowboy “fans” on here that root for Dak to not play great. I’m not saying they openly root against him and certainly not the team, but that they are much happier if we win and he plays like crap so they don’t have to backtrack on their incessant whining about him Amd get to run here and tell everyone how crappy he is. Worst kind of fan. Second worst are the ones that are clearly happy when Dak plays great even if we lose. They aren’t quite as bad because at least they are rooting for our player.

How to know if you are in one of these groups is easy. When it is 1st and goal from the two you are hoping for a TD but also for it to be a Dak pass or not a Dak pass, depending of course on your agenda.

You're just typing things that come to your brain that is pure fiction. Sports fans have always turned on players that don't perform well since the beginning of sports.

Are you out on Dak if we lose this game and he turns the ball over?

If not, what would it take for you to be out on Dak?

On the opposite side, if Dak can get us to the NFC Championship I will apologize for discredting Dak.


It’s not really the team result as much as it is how well he plays… How smart he plays… But if he plays well and smart, then I think it’s pretty safe bet that we’re going to win

Cowboys fan forever, just another disappointment that’s all. But we are so overrated. We shouldn’t even be in the playoffs. If not for excellent coaching.

Yup 60 year is Cowboys fan, loyal, I’m not changing now. I’m glad you’re not a bandwagon.

I don't know about you, but I have zero influence over who Dallas signs, who starts, what plays are called, etc. They line up and play. I watch.

It doesn't do any good to complain or otherwise be 'in' on a player or not. Dak's the starting QB. I've always liked him, but I sure don't like games like Sundays. It wasn't just Dak, though. Many players seemed to not have their heart in the game against Washington. I don't understand it, but I saw it.

I think any unbiased person knows what we have with Dak: a competent QB who can play at a high level, but who is very capable of laying an egg more often than Mahomes, Allen, and the other top QBs in the league. There are some stats that explain his massive uptick in ints this year, most notably a group of receivers who are at the very bottom of the league in getting separation.. The OL just isn't very good, and Dak can't overcome a terrible game from them. Anybody remember the game in Atlanta in 2017(?) when he was sacked 6 times? He didn't get over that for the rest of that year.

Seems like something is in his head right now. I hope he can shake it.

No, I've always said it's a team game.
