Kellen has a top 3 offense so Dak sucks.
Dak helms a top 3 offense so Kellen sucks.

Zeke sucks.
The WR's suck.
The OL needs help.
The TE's are nothing to write home about...

I just don't get it.

How does a top 3 offense even happen with all this suckage?
The problem isn't sucking but sucking at the wrong time. Dak and the offense was magnificent against the Buccaneers. Wide receivers getting wide open, Dak making precise throws, etc. But when you come back the next week and can only score 12 when your defense gives up just 19, everything about the offense deserves to be called into question.

I chose the guy that sucked before the other guy became a coach.
That's fair I guess, if you like blaming one single guy while most say nearly everybody stinks (including your choice, which I don't necessarily disagree with).
Doesn't really answer my original question, but I won't question your logic on that point.

So you're consistent: everything about the offense deserves.
I just wonder why this team can be a top O and then stink in the playoffs.

Dak's butt has puckered and did this year, but there were years when his didn't and they still couldn't make hay.

What's the deal? I'm not arguing with anybody, I'm just asking questions.

Welp, that “article” offered absolutely zero new concrete information.
Any number of posters on this board could’ve written that.

Anyway, I’m okay with Kellen staying.
Despite the seemingly horrible reputation he has on this board, our offense has been among the leagues best in yardage and scoring over the last couple seasons.
We better have a very very good OC lined up if we bounce Kellen.

It's called empty stats. If you can't do it when it matters it doesn't matter.
Yeah, but...
You don't think other teams are trying hard through the year?
They don't want to win?
It's not like Dallas played a weak division this year and only beat powder puff teams.
They beat a bundle of playoff bound teams along the way and you have to think those teams wanted to beat the Cowboys just as bad as the season went on.

I don't know. I don't get it.

What changes when it hits the playoffs?

We can't get passed the divisional round of the playoffs. Both are inadequate because they score 50+ one week, then look like imbeciles the next. No consistency.
Both of them? Maybe. Maybe this is a bad marriage for the playoffs, but a great marriage for the RS.
It's honestly a mystery to me.

Yet...how does a top 3 offense - the last two regular seasons - wind up scoring only 12 and 17 points in playoff losses.
Undoubtedly Pollard going down in the 2nd qtr was a major blow.
But last January, there was Pollard - and Cooper - plus Schutlz, Lamb, etc. ---yet only 17 points.

You mean, like those two interceptions that cost the Cowboys points each time and put the defense in a strain?

When the quarterback chokes- Like I warned all of you would happen- the offense is going to struggle.
Dak chokes in games that he has to be the one who makes the difference. He does every time.
When the Cowboys are beating up on a team and they are already on the ropes, Dak plays great.

Not to be obtuse here, but a top ranked defense will almost always put the clamps on a top ranked offense. That’s exactly what played out last weekend. And couple that with a twitchy quarterback against that defense and we get the same postseason results.

I just think we're snake bit. When all these players and coaches are gone ,we'll still be arguing about the same things.

Or like the wildcard opponent.
After winning the first two games on the road - against the Cowboys and the Saints - to start the 2022 season- the Buccaneers were basically bad team in a bad division who barely won the playoff berth over the other bad division rivals.
