Based on the past 8 years, I believe Dak has hit his ceiling. And my opinion is just as valid as any other opinion posted here. OP's 10-15 year statement is his opinion, goofy as I believe it is, it's his opinion also.

So tell me why our expensive *** QB can't match the opening TD drive of the other team? WHY??!?!?!!?!!!
He didn’t play well and GB’s defense was fired up after watching their offense march down the field for 14 plays and a TD. Dak and CeeDee weren’t same page early and we couldn’t run the ball so it was all on Dak and our passing game. You have to give GB some credit for stepping up. They were ready to play and we weren’t. That opening drive TD gave them all the momentum they needed to dominate us.

So what did dak do to change the momentum during the time he had on the bench? Go out and play like a rookie in his first playoff game? because that's exactly what he does in these playoffs. You wanna talk about momentum, How does watching your QB go 3 and out or throw pick sixes in your own redzone give anyone momentum???

Hard for any QB to change the momentum when no one is playing well. It’s almost like you didn’t even watch the game. We couldn’t run the ball and Dak and CeeDee weren’t clicking. You continue pointing the finger entirely at Dak and no one else.

So your telling me for the past 3 playoffs, Its ok that the offense doesn't do anything but hold hands and hope the DEF can stop someone? How bout putting up a fight and actually scoring?

Respectfully, Dak and CD make far too much money not to be on the same page AT HOME. For gosh sakes

If that’s the take you’ve gotten from my posts then you need to work on your comprehension. When your offense isn’t clicking your defense has to step up. Make a stop. Get a damn sack or a turnover. That’s how we were winning games all season. Our best defensive player who’s going to smash the bank has only had one sack and four QB hits in four playoff games. Hard to put up a fight when your defense is getting manhandled and quits.

Things aren’t always going to run smoothly, that’s part of football. When one part of your team isn’t functioning the other part needs to step up. We don’t have players that step up in the playoffs, especially on defense.

When has the OFFENSE EVER FUNCTIONED correctly in the playoffs? We ALL know the defense is a problem, But all you wanna do is defend dak. Keep living in la la land thinking DAK will take up anywhere. You say we have players that don't step up, first one that comes to mind is DAK. Has he ever stepped up? I need a explanation as to when HE has stepped up when his team needed him in the playoffs??

The offense functioned correctly against Tampa and good thing it did because we gave up 350 yards passing and 2 TDs to Brady. You don’t seem to recognize the defense being a problem because you haven’t brought it up until now. You’ve been defending the defense and pointing the finger entirely at Dak.

is it defending Dak to ask what players have stepped up in the playoffs...I mean when did it become either blame just Dak or your a Dak lover or whatever...here is the real THE COWBOYS haves sucked in the playoffs for 28 years damn near 3 decades..how you going to pin that on 1 player? Dak sucked in GB that doesnt mean the defense should be off the hook for litetrally allowing a 7th seed with basically a 1st time starting QB to score on 7 of 8 drives in the first 3 quarters..that wasnt on Dak thats on DQ and the defense..the offense production yeah thats on Dak and MM and the offense...

He stepped up against Tom Brady, having arguably the best game of his career but you don’t want to talk about that because it doesn’t fit with your Dak sucks agenda. He stepped up against Russell Wilson in the playoffs giving us a comfortable 10 point lead with a scramble for a TD with just over 2 minutes left. However our choking defense almost gave it back with a 53 yard play down the field. Had Seattle scored a TD they would have had an opportunity to pull out the game with an onside kick recovery.

Stepping up you say? You better give the defense credit.

They were 8-9 and the game was on the road against Tom Brady who was 7-0 against the Cowboys. Records don’t mean CRAP in the playoffs and we saw that in January against a 9 win Packers team. The Cowboys hadn’t won a road playoff game since their last SB win in 1995. The previous week they got steamrolled by an 8 win Washington team on the road. Only a true Dak hater would downplay that playoff win against Tampa and Brady.

Our offense gets most of the credit. We had the ball almost 10 minutes longer than the Bucs. Dak had over 300 yards and 4 TDs and we rushed almost 130 yards. Had we missed a beat offensively that would have been a different game. The only thing we did good defensively was keep them out of the endzone because they had no trouble moving the ball.

So it was all Dak vs the Retired Tom brady and the Def did nothing?

Retired Tom Brady had almost 4700 yards and 25 TDs. He put up 350 and 2 TDs against us. What the defense did well was keep them out of the endzone. I know it pains you to give Dak any credit but try being objective.

I remember that game! That was the game where Dak made Brady retire he beat him so bad.
