If Dak was an Ironman competitor he would win the running and biking legs in grand fashion.... and drown during the swimming leg.

A real favs wants the team to actually improve. The names on the back of the jerseys don’t mean squat.

A Dak over Dallas fan, like yourself, just wants to watch Dak play.

Y’all got exposed when Cooper Rush played. The Cowboys winning games wasn’t fun when Dakky poo wasn’t playing.
Wasn't fun getting drilled by the Eagles with Rush either....

it matters to reasonable thinking folk.

When you miss a quarter of the season and still lead the NFL in INTs it’s a problem.

I hope he throws 20+ INTS this season and we go 0-17. This bum has got to go.
Of course an Eagle fan would hope we get rid of him and go 0-17. Of course. You're not saying anything most of us don't know.

And you didn't answer my question. If Stafford missed 5 games due to a hand injury you think he all of a sudden wouldn't have led the league in interceptions?

Kellen Moore was just as inconsistent as the OC. I would describe him the exact same way - some games the play calling was great, others you were left scratching your head as to what the hell he was doing. He could call a great series and then the very next series leave you wondering if it was the same guy calling the plays.
I know many on here are stuck on how high in the rankings his offenses here were, but scoring 40 plus points and getting a ton of yards against bad teams and then not scoring enough or even being able to move the chains consistently against good teams doesn't translate to success in the playoffs - which is all that matters. In the playoffs, there are usually no bad teams - the exception being last year and Bradys Bucs. Perfect example- the offense looked like the best ever against them, but playing a good team and very good D it was a different story.
I agree. I think it's telling that the best teams don't have to score the most. You know who scored a lot last year? Detroit Lions and they didn't make the playoffs. And all those years we'd go 8-8 leading the league in offense. The game is more than about statistics and fantasy points. In order for this team to go where it needs to go it will have to take a step back in the stats department and I hope everyone is willing to accept that.

I bet you really impressed your kindergarten teachers with your elite level perseverance when you never gave up on trying to pound that square peg into the round hole.

(A sawbuck says this one goes over his head also. Any takers?)

Eagles fans pray Dak is a Cowboy forever.

They know he’ll never lead them to anything but hilarious failure.

I’m not answering your hypothetical questions. It didn’t happen so it doesn’t matter.

Dak sure smacks y'all up every chance he gets though lol. That's one thing that's for certain....he will smack the hell out of an Eagles team no matter if it's ranked the best or last placed defense.

Why do you act like that? Lol

It’s been proven over and over that you really don’t believe in Dak at all. You just troll Cowboys fans.

It's not about Dak. It's about what he does to the Eagles every time he sees them. You can hate Dak but even you have to admit he knocks y'all around every chance he gets. Hell last time he gave y'all a pick 6 and still lit your defense up lol.

Per @NextGenStats, Dak Prescott went 24-for-24 for 300 yards when Eagles played zone. Eagles defense allowed points (4 TDs, 4 FGs) on 8 of 10 Cowboys possessions. Eagles’ 2nd-worst defensive performance of the season, based on EPA per drive.

I still believe Dak sliding after running a qb keeper with no timeouts in 2021 is a top 5 all time playoff blunder. Its really hard to find worse plays in critical moments throughout the history of the nfl playoffs.
He was just running the play Moore called. Had it been executed properly it would have worked. That was the problem, it wasn't. There is plenty to blame Dak for don't get me wrong. The Cowboys have to do better in those circumstances.

I couldn’t imagine worshiping such a bad player like this.

You should have better standards.

Josh Allen is a top-five NFL quarterback. Nobody in their right mind would argue that fact. His frame, arm, and athleticism make him a cheat code.

But in a world that hasn’t stopped talking about Prescott’s 15 interceptions, Allen’s league-leading 19 turnovers isn’t talked about nearly as much. Trevor Lawrence, who ranks above Prescott on a few lists out there, lost five more fumbles than any other QB and turned the ball over two more times than Prescott. Joe Burrow quietly had one less turnover than Prescott did.


Same exact thing I've said. Nobody cared when Stafford was leading the league in interceptions. Nobody cares that Josh Allen does it.

Great article. Gotta give credit where its due. Not the same crap over and over again.
I agree to some extent. However, I think up until now there are people who could argue credibly that Josh Allen is a top 5 talent but not a top 5 QB. Despite being on a loaded offense with an excellent defense, he hasn't won anything, and last year he threw some crazy ints that killed his team.

summed up quite nicely::

A season ago, Prescott’s 52.5% success rate ranked below only Mahomes and Allen. He ranked eighth in both EPA and the EPA+CPOE composite. Mind you, this was in what many claim was arguably his worst season.

On third and fourth down, only Mahomes, Allen, and Jalen Hurts had higher success rates. On 3rd-and-6 or more, only Tagovailoa (47.2%) and Mahomes (46.7%) had higher success rates than Prescott (44.3%).

In fact, Prescott’s success rate from 2020-2022 ranks fourth, above Aaron Rodgers, who won two MVPs in that time. Only Mahomes, Allen, and Ryan Tannehill (who misses Arthur Smith dearly) have better marks over that time.


Prescott is a quarterback guy’s favorite quarterback. But because of the team he plays for, many want to claim he’s just Kirk Cousins with better marketing. He’s not.

He's the one guy I find very odd they crown. I know he had a game or two of going toe to toe with Mahomes so maybe that's it? He throws some egregious interceptions.....like in the red zone when they are about to score. He has an arm and can run so I get why he has a good rep but he's done nothing.
