The question I have is does damage the locker room......keep in mind, regardless of what we see in public, Dak is human like the rest of us. It's to imagine this isn't bothering him.

9. I think one of the nuttiest things of the last month is Cowboys players’ kin dogging Dak Prescott. One of the things that stinks about social media—and there are many—is that it gives oxygen to anyone, at any time. Which allows relatives of football players to go on various platforms and tell us why Player X has ruined the team. It’s chum in the water for the media (and I do not blame the media), and before you know it we’ve got a brushfire, or bigger. It’s awful.

I’ll preface this by saying I agree dak is human and I don’t want him to suffer mentally and feel abused.

But that being said, I am reaching a point with this team where I welcome accountability in any form by any party that may somehow change the trajectory. Dak has been a large part, if not the largest part, of our playoff failures and the sooner we move on from him the sooner there can be a different outcome.

Notice I said a different outcome, not necessarily a better one bc that would imply a better qb is assured…:which it is not…but I like many fans are just ready for a change no matter what it means or how it comes about

These things also have a way of blowing over.

Yes, dak is human....but hes also the leader even if de facto. He can tell the media he understands frustrations, he has 'em too....and rally the troops like a good leader does.

Or...not.

Well Dak had no issue going on Social Media and blasting players before he came to the league. Crazy how much cover this guy gets.

I only want to hear supportive messages unless I approve and sanction the criticism. Sounds like freedom of a select few.

I don't feel sorry for Prescott. He held out to be paid like he is a top QB. It would be great to see him retire early and know that I had a part in it.

well he should HUMANLY play better, and NOT think he's the greatest and ask for more money or try to tie negotiations up
