Ummm. My posting history is rarely complaining. I complained about the draft because I wanted them to go in a different direction. Are you confusing me with someone else? Because if we won the superbowl I would definitely not be complaining about anything.
If you took offense I'm sorry. No I'm not confusing you tho. From what I've seen everything negative about dak, but if he's good, you're nowhere to be found. That's what I've seen, and you're not blind, you have the m.o of negativity. Never really bothered me just tired of fans only being fans when times are good.

But everybody is entitled to be a fan they way they want.

My thoughts are we are stuck in QB purgatory.

Paid like a top 10 QB, performs half the time like a top tier QB.

We are struck in the mud called Dak Prescott.

Best ways to win in the league:

Young QB on rookie deal where you can surround with talent.
Elite QB on big deal that can make those around them better.
He was one of the final 8 qbs still playing. So why isn't he a top 10 qb?

You are definitely confusing me with someone else then. I have been one of Dak's biggest supporters on here for years....

We like our guys.
We gotta get better.
Have to bear down.
Take a look at the tape
Gotta work harder
I promise I'm gonna get better
rinse and repeat
They didn't get better? Let me ask you this. Did you think they would win 12 games in the offseason when Jerry watched fa? Did you think they would have the defense they dud when they let fa after fa get signed? How where you armchair gms feeling about this defense then? Then tell me if you thought the team would win 5 games after week 1?

Yes they like their guys. For good reason. Yeah they lost, but this weekend there were 23 qbs who were watching these 8 qbs playing

If dak played good half the time the team wouldnt be the number 1 scoring offense since he got back from injury. Was he bad yes, but don't the niners defense get credit? Just like Purdy dak had a bad game. The difference is, Dallas defense dropped 3 easy ints from Purdy.

Who needs "haters" when Dak fans turn on him because of 1 game erasing 7 years worth of defending his bad play.
You've yet to find one post of mine saying I'm a "Dak fan". If you want me to I'll go back 5 years and show you post of mine calling out Dak. I'm a Cowboy fan that roots for Dak to play good. They are so completely different. You are just random person on this forum rooting for Dak to fail to help your Cowboys hate agenda. That's the epitome of troll.

If being right about players makes me a troll then so be it.

I'd rather my opinions be based in reality instead of make believe land.

Because being a Cowboys fan doesn't require defending Dak.

I'm just so disheartened I don't know if I even care anymore. I've been watching the team religiously for most of my 31, soon to be 32 years, and I'm so sick and tired of constantly catching flack over this team that constantly lets everyone down. I get tired of media and everyday people talking about how much of a joke we are and then we go out on the field and do what we did.

Love that team, just sick and tired of them being a laughing stock. It's making me enjoy watching football less and less. I get more negative than ever during the games, it's like I can't even begin to enjoy them anymore. I'm sure it's a dramatic reaction, maybe I'll get over it. I'm a pretty emotional sports fan but there's much more to my life than football.

And I guess what makes it so frustrating is the fact that I've never been one of those fans that blames Jerry and the organization for every little thing they do. And I'm still not, but something really rubs me the wrong way that they thought they could just get away with letting all those guys walking, in particular Amari Cooper, and not replace him. If James Washington/Jalen Tolbert was the immediate replacement, that is something a GM in professional sports should absolutely get fired for. So as a fan it really makes me sit here and wonder, if they care so much about winning why didn't they make something happen at the WR position. Just venting my frustrations, not really trying to blame anybody in particular I just feel as defeated and disheartened as I ever have as a fan.

Your thoughts aren't based on reality, they are based on hopes of someone failing. I'm the exact opposite, I have seen Daks flaws since I was pissed they didn't bring Romo back after his injury in 2016. Yet - I still hope he plays good and when he does I give him his credit and when he doesn't I'm the first to call him on it. This was the worst game I've seen him play and it's enough for me to be okay moving on. I'm sure they won't and if he is the QB I'll be hoping he proves me wrong...instead of like you and hoping he proves me right.

I don't have to hope Dak fails.

I know Dak will fail. That's why I'm so open about talking about it.

You can hope all you want and look where that gets you with Dak.

Until one of us becomes the owner of the team it will get me exactly where it will get you in a much more positive manner.

You said yourself that you expected us to win that game until the 2nd half.

I didn't.

So it don't get us in the same spot actually, because I I never expected a Dak led to to win that game and your "hope" in Dak only lead to disappointment.

I totally agree with you. Cowboy fans are dissapointed in losing last night.

That's why you said you wasn't upset after Pollard was injured and Dak threw his 2nd INT.

Now I get it.
Haha try twisting anything you want. You openly just said you weren't disappointed in the outcome because you already knew it was gonna happen. Kind of like your 8 win projection...

You must understand how anything you think is going to happen there is a pretty good track record of the exact opposite happening. It's probably why I was so optimistic.

You were optimistic because you made the mistake of having "hope" in a bad player like Dak.

Hopefully you learned your lesson and you're not just a poisoner of the moment with your "move on from Dak" talk.

He doesn't. He was also very "angry" at the loss last season. What did he do? Nothing. You may buy into his crocodile tears but apologizing to the fans and not changing behaviour is just lip service. If Jerry was really as sad and sorry as he said. He would hire a GM and go live out his remaining years on his yacht and show up at the games in his helicopter on Sundays. THAT would show me he actually cares.

Lol at crocodile tears.....I feel like everyone has the same PR person that they go to on this team. Okay Jerry, the fans want you to show some frustration...can you cry on que? Yes, that's it... use that one in a few minutes. Hey dak the fans are going to ask you about the INTs... we need to stress that you will work on this on the off season. Lol. It truly is a sideshow circus.
