He struggles against good defenses. As someone noted in another thread, he feasted upon defenses that had average to below average opposing passer ratings but struggled against ones with good pass defenses. Isn't that fairly obvious at this point?

He's a good QB. But he clearly has a ceiling and unfortunately, that ceiling seems to be what we saw in the postseason again this year.
The Packers defense sucked this year. He just choked.

This may shock you, but NFL QBs generally play better against weaker defenses than they do vs good defenses.

Dak lit up the Jets elite defense (which NO other QB did this year) and was also very good vs the Lions.

Again, be mad about the playoff loss all you want. Call him a choker for that game, and he deserves it.

But he was excellent in the regular season. At least give the man that! Just stop with the lies and the exaggerations. Why is that too much to ask?

"not reading this novel"
then proceeds to not only read it, but take the time to directly address the arguments I made in it, one by one.

Classic. Flail away.
I read like the first couple of sentences, little guy.

Still mad that I was right and you weren't?

So, it went from "not reading this novel" to "I only read a couple of sentences"
Can't wait to see how much it is in your next post LOL

And then you start caterwauling about others supposedly "moving goalposts":muttley:

This is why you have zero credibility on this forum. You can't even keep your own lies straight, much less keep track of what everyone else is saying.
Flail away.

So when you read the 1st page of a book, then put it down because you're not interested in the rest... do you tell people that you read the whole book?

Or do you say, "I'm not reading this book"?

I wish you well, little guy. You're struggling.

The issue is, you clearly read the whole post because you responded to the whole post. You just want to make it look like you didn't. Kind of a strange hill to die on, but when I look at the other stuff you've doubled down on, I guess it's not so odd.

anyways, it is what it is. My hypothesis was proven accurate once again. Namely, that though you claimed to be realist, by beginning of next season you'd be back to your emoji based, Dak flame, troll posts.

I actually thought it would take a little while because you did appear to be shaken by Dak's game Sunday. Or at least it appeared that way in the few moments of honesty you had about Dak. But you rallied quickly and got back to being who you truly are and it didn't even take 2 full days.

Championing regular season stats after that performance surely is a strategy. Yikes.

I can’t get over the stats in that post about Denver trading for him. Those are not good stats. There is a pattern in the postseason, and that 13-21 87 yards 2 ints in the first half with the game still in reach gives me zero confidence moving forward especially come the postseason *if* they even make there next year.

It’s unlikely the Cowboys move on from Dak.

But I almost wish they would…. Just so this trash fanbase could watch Trey Lance and whatever rookie we trot out there struggle.

And likely go into QB purgatory for years trying to find a competent one.

We got lucky with Romo. And Prescott.

The prior almost ten years? Garbage QB or end of life retreads.

Awww, someone's shook.
:laugh:

I'm sorry I was right about the All-Pro QB having a great regular season and struggling in the playoff game.

Only a low-IQ goofball would even try to argue otherwise, but nothing on this board shocks me.

Don't bang your head against the wall too many more times now!

The reason the Green Bay Packers had 20 plus years of great QB play is because they took the position seriously and drafted QBs high despite already having great QBs on the roster

The reason we sucked at finding QBs is because we depend on 4th rounders and old free agents instead of taking an ELITE prospect in the 1st round.

By your logic, why even draft other players at other positions at all? The rookies could suck !!

How am I defending him when I said he sucked? Lol….don’t lump me in with others. The defense allowed 1 punt the whole day. There’s no big “I told you so” if you’re only measuring stick for if a quarterback is good or not is “did he win a super bowl”. If that’s the litmus than guys like Marino aren’t good quarterbacks.

Now dak couldn’t sniff Mariano’s jock but even all time great qb’s like Bree’s, Rodgers, have only won 1 Super Bowl and why? Because it’s extremely hard to do. That’s an idiots argument. The defense yesterday was horrendous- dak was terrible but even with good quarterback play they aren’t winning that game. They couldn’t stop the packers to save their lives. It started drive 1 and continued the entire game.

I can say dak sucked and also realize other things that happened in the game, people like you can only realize dak sucked and ignore the rest bc they only want it to be about 1 thing. Small minds.
You my brother have the small mind. No one is defending the D. They stank !
But Dak stinks EVERY time the lights are bright !

Yes your Brain in tiny. Try using more of it

“Your brain in tiny”….the irony of being called stupid (or the attempt at least lol) while not even being able to form a correct sentence

How many QBs "put up big stats against top defenses" this season? Name them all. Go right ahead!

You clearly don't watch any NFL football outside of the Cowboys.
:laugh::laugh::laugh:

I literally started posting in this thread about how awful Dak was against Green Bay, but yeah, I'm totally defending his playoff loss.

You're a know-nothing joke, just like you've always been.

What kind of dolt would even try to argue that a QB who led the league in TDs and was an All-Pro didn't have a good regular season???

Dak will be our starting QB next year and you'll still be miserable. That's a nice consolation prize.

Psst... Dak was great vs the Jets "top defense", unlike every other top QB the Jets faced. Now go run along and move the goalposts, little man.
:lmao2: :lmao2: :lmao2::lmao2::lmao2:
No need to argue with excuse making fan- boys. The fact that you are defending him says everything. If Dak comes back , it will be another failure for you to make excuses for. I have zero emotional input for the current bunch of gutless players on this team. It takes a low IQ fanbase to continue supporting this bunch of losers.

Emotions bring out hyperbole here I just can’t believe how many people are debating this.
