Possible 10-15 years of .500 football when Dak's gone

[Mikexike]

You’re just part of the anyone but Dak crowd. You would love to see the Cowboys sink to 4-7 wins every season with one of those duds.

You're 100% correct, I'd rather sink with a new QB preferably LANCE then the one we will trot out.... I've seen enough.. I don't need another 5-10 years of the same result.

He only played against backups for a short time against GB. He was caving them up so bad they had to put their starters back in. Our defense quit on the first series. Try opening your eyes! We aren’t going to win anything with this defense. Even in our playoff win against Tampa, Brady put up over 350 yards and two TDs. The story of that game was Dak’s great performance.

I don't need my eyes checked, They gave up a TD but kept it close for most of the first half. What did our qb do during that time?

And they got luck because Carolina should have drafted Stroud.

Yeah everybody gets lucky. It’s just bad luck we are 1 of 1 nfc teams to not reach the champ game in 30 years.

We were down 14-0 early in the second quarter and down by 20 before Dak threw the pick-six. They scored 5 offensive TDs and our Key Stone cop defense couldn’t hold them to one FG. Your QB is going to struggle if you can’t run the ball and your D is being gutted.

While the defense definitely didn't play great, Dak and the offense was also an epic letdown. Dak played a massive part in the swing of the game.

Gave them 14pts off his INTs
Took Dallas out of FG range since he never throws the ball away.

(IF) the defense holds out in the best case scenario it could have been 13-10 at halftime if it wasnt for the two INT. Completely different game. But lets be real the way the defense was playing let's just assume GB scores one more time if there was no turnovers. Could have been 20-10 at worse.

Defense was getting beat up but did force a punt on their second possession however when your offense can't get anything going and gives the other team 14pts and your constantly on the field.....Defense was gassed by half

Offense could have changed the swing of the game or slowed GB onslaught if they scored or took TOP. Not contribute 14pts and helping your defense look silly

Both sides sucked

I think he was sitting pouting on the bench because CD was mean to him. shrugs

After Dak’s first INT our defense gave up a TD in only 3 plays. Instead of stepping up and holding them to a FG, we layed down. Holding them to a FG would have been a victory but we couldn’t keep them out of the endzone all day. Their offense completely had their way with our defense. It was embarrassing!

For most of an entire half the offense couldn't put together a drive and were watching the game warming the benches. At what point do you expect more from the side of the football that occupies a lions share of the cap?

 

[Captain-Crash]

I was almost embarrassed that dak couldn't put any points up until the scrubs came in, but I support the crap out of the choker. He's dak good.

Once the Packers scored on their opening drive and seized the momentum, the game was pretty much over. They didn’t allow our offense to get on track. Our defense couldn’t make stops and the game got out of hand. Green Bay was a hot team entering the playoffs and they came to play.

 

[KJJ]

What our QB did was more embarrassing.

He only passed for 403 yards, competing 41 passes, both Cowboys playoff records and he threw 3 TDs. He also rushed for 45 yards. Pollard and Dowdle only combined for 67 yards.

They didn't allow? Please, our offense basically gave up from the first snap. They went out there thinking they could just win the game by showing up in their uniform. What they got was getting punched in the mouth. Look at every loss last year it's the same way. Team shows up makes it hard on the offense and it curls up and goes away - basically becomes non-existent. Then the next day the talking heads will go out claiming that the Cowboys offense is so basic and unimaginative. Well duh....they were not playing the Giants.

Stats don't paint the whole picture of that game, He didn't wake up until the end of the 3rd/4th qt. Dak and the offense lost all the momentum.

Since you bring up stats, If Dak doesn't force throws to his first read and actually go through his progression and RB outlets in the flat then he probably has an all world playoff game and the cowboys probably move on to SF. But he did none of that so therefore we are here debating this joke.

You should trademark “Dak good”.

dak did a dak, he racked up stats when the other team called it a game.


Shannon Sharpe declares Dak Prescott’s inconsistency as the Cowboys ‘biggest problem

 

[MikeT22]

Try naming a QB that will lead this dysfunctional
organization on a deep playoff run or a SB. I got news for you, Dak is about as good as we’re likely to get at QB for a long time. You might have a lot more to complain about with our next QB. We may have to go through several to find another real good one.

I can name one who can’t, Dak. What’s your solution, extend him? Let him play out his career here while we accomplish nothing and then in a few years have to start the process?

How did our offense give up when we had over 500 yards of offense and 3 TDs? Our defense got punched in the mouth and folded just like they did during the regular season against SF, AZ and Buffalo.

All those yards and td's don't matter... If he did that in the first half i don't think we are here arguing this. The fact that most of that came when the game was lost is the issue.

I asked you to name one who can. The only solution to keep the team competitive and having a chance to compete in the playoffs is to extend Dak. The book on him hasn’t been finished. We are accomplishing something by winning our division and making the playoffs consistently. We’re at least giving ourselves a chance.
