The Rams stacked the line and dared the passing game (not just Dak, the whole unit) to beat them and they won handily. You can draw whatever conclusions that makes you feel better.
So did you miss the part where CJ Anderson ran all over the defense? Is it Dak's fault too because he can't play defensive line or linebacker too? And the Rams stacked the line and dared us to pass...and we kept running....yet that is Dak's fault? Yikes.....

not sure what you mean. we ran 20 times. passed 32. the fact is that dallas goes as zeke goes. dak had his usual average day. zeke didn't. we lost. its been the trend all year this year and last year. zeke over a 100 total yards we are 9-1. zeke less than 100 yards, we are 1-6. it didn't matter how dak did. he had good passing days, bad passing days, as zeke went, so did dallas.

Anti-Dak crowd logic. "Goff advanced further than Dak in the playoffs and is 2-0 against Dak so that makes him better."

"But, Matt Ryan has the better stats, even though ATL had a losing season, even though Matt Ryan lost to Dak this season and even though Dak made it further in the playoffs than Ryan did this season."

NO need to blame it on Ryan having a bad team around him, since the notion is that a true franchise, elite QB doesn't have to be "carried" by a better supporting cast and teammates and can elevate average players around him, to put a team on his back and carry them into the playoffs. Also, saying that Cooper is the reason for Dak's success, when Ryan has Julio Jones.

Cowboys fans being miserable over their own QB making the pro bowl or winning games. :muttley:
anti garrett crowd logic. "Mcvay advanced further than Garrett, thus Mcvay is better."


this is not Dak's team. this is Zeke's team.

That's how the game ended because they had to pass out of the hole they put themselves in. They should've aborted the gameplan once they knew they couldn't run on the Rams. That over confidence is once again why we sit here one win and out of the playoffs. IT happens all the time. You attack their secondary to open up the pass. That's common sense. You don't keep running you take advantage of what they are giving you. But for some reason that's foreign to this team.

Gifted 1 TD early (some safety covering Cooper 1v1) and couldn't put up another score until 5-6 minutes in the 3rd, smdh
"Gifted" huh?

Has Dak ever done anything that wasn't by someone else doing something in your estimation?

Yes those other pesky 3 quarters of mediocre play got in the way, how irritating.
60 minute game last i checked. Somehow Mahomes was able to make it a game and also didn't get a chance in Overtime when he was shutout in the first half.

Go figure.

The fact that you think that I didn't also say it was a 60 minute game is telling.

At what point do we start expecting Dak to change the calls at the line when he sees the defense playing run?

I've read here that he is given two plays. Presumably he knows all the plays in addition to the two he is given.

I'd like to see him take a little more control at the line when the defense has shown itself.

Didn't he say he needed to do that a few weeks ago?

Not expecting Brady or Romo mastery of reading defenses at this point. Would to see more of an effort though.
