Interesting. Like I said, what I brought up wasn't normalized for attempts. But that's interesting. Not surprised to see that Dak has the fewest attempts out of that entire group.

How's that sophomore slump working out for you Skippy?

You mean the one where he’s down across the board in literally every efficiency stat, including 16th in completion percentage and 22nd in yards per attempt (after being top 4 in both last year). Is that the slump you’re talking about, troll?

 

[CowboyStar88]

Lets just say, he could give me the Dak any day of the week <3

 

[Outlaw Heroes]

Give us some names. I can't think of many here.

I don’t like the term “Dak slobberer”, but I think his comment was a shot back at Sarge. Clove is another that comes to mind.

He's referring to anyone that isn't racist most likely.

I don’t follow. Super Kayuza is not a fan of Dak. He was a fan of Romo. Where does racism enter into things?

Might be a girl...

Might be a guy too. Either way, TMI.

Let's not pretend @Super_Kazuya doesn't remind us of a bitter old-timer with deep rooted prejudice issues.

It’s three year old logic at best. I always thought that watching the NFL would be an extremely weird thing to do if you were a racist so it always makes me laugh when people say things like that.
And on the contrary, I’m a fan of Dak. I thought it was absurd to play him over Romo, but Romo is retired now. I have scarcely mentioned Romo’s name at all on this board since he retired, why would I? He’s retired. It’s The Dak slobberers who are obsessed.

I see. Thanks for the clarification. Bold suggestion. But it may be the elephant in the room. At some point it does become difficult to understand how you don’t get behind a guy that’s had maybe the best 20 game start to his career of any QB ever.

I'm being fecietous, but it's hard not to imagine some people's reservations stem from that. He'd be the first I would tag with that label and I don't really give a **** what he or anyone else thinks about it.

Nice post, but why aren’t they just “Romo haters” instead of “Dak slobberers”. Really does make it sound like you’re hating on Dak.

 

[Ultra Warrior]

Yea some people will never get it. I don't know what Dak has to do to convince people he's good.

Win a Playoff game. That's a good start.
BTW, I already think he's good.

Mostly because it’s still funny to me in a grade school way, it was probably more appropriate last year but it still applies to the usual suspects who are overly sensitive to criticism of Dak or get angry every time Wentz throws a touchdown.

The difference between you, a "fan" of Dak and a Dak "sloberer" is what exactly? Please enlighten us.

Great article. Odly.. it's so hard to get Prescott support here amongst all places.

I'm not sure why. Cowboy fans should be thanking the other thirty one NFL teams every day for not taking him.

Romo is retired now and we will all miss his six total playoff games and enjoy the fact he is a great commentator.
