Question for the pro-Dak fans on here?

[Cowboysheelsreds053]

Those 90’s teams were built around the trenches that were it all starts.

Perhaps for the same reason those on the opposite side blame him for most everything. Dak is like modern day politics for fans; very divisive. Most are on one side or the other, and common ground (and sometimes common sense), be damned.

I mean i dont understand how anybody can dispute any of this.

When you cant make anything happen off-script, you dont deserve to be the highest paid player in the league

That right there!

Also people comparing him to Troy, that wasn't even the same type of football as the NFL today.
But, I guarantee Troy could process information way faster than Dak.

Dak's processing is like watching a pocket calculator from the 70s compete with a super computer.

On a side note... No one can convince me that Dak really cares if they win or lose. Especially a Super Bowl.

Dak's brain is never going to get faster. He also looks like he runs slower than me.
I laughed because Detroit wasn't going to give him his garbage time yards.
They put the foot on the throat.

This entire team and franchise is horrible right now.
We have maybe 3 players that care about winning.

Dak is just Dak... and I hope after he got $60 mill a year as a fraud, he gets pummeled all season long.

Detroit did Dallas an absolute favor by going for the kill and not allowing garbage time yards. It highlighted so many flaws, and not just Dak's flaws.

I hate to break it to you but QB's don't actually play against QB's. They play against the opposing QB's defense.

You must think Troy threw 15 passes per drive for 80 yards. No that was Emmitt Smith grinding out the yards and eating up the clock making it a manageable 3 and for 4 for Troy.

Emmitt rushing and receiving, Irvin, Harper, Novacek, the Moose, and others

Dak has had plenty of good rosters and blocking and running games.. yet he sucked.. now the roster has finally caught up to the QB in training project and he looks even worse than ever before..

 

[NotForLong]

Help me understand. If Boy wonder average 1 TD and .8 picks per game why is it a problem when Dak is doing better than that???

Is it because Emmitt carried the team with 74 100+ yard games and we currently average 50 when we lose.

How come Troy could only win 40% of the time when Emmitt did not play or did not get 100 yards.

Please help me understand???

I get it when Troy lost, it most have been Emmitt's fault.

So now that the team is a mess and Dak is underperforming after breaking the bank, you are gonna keep on tearing down Troy to prop Dak up. This is gonna be your argument you hang on to

Stats. . . All that Dakstans have

I hate prevent defenses.. it should be banned

Troy had the best team money could buy and was ever assembled.

You didn’t watch them then.

They were the youngest team when they won their SBs. They weren’t even favored against the 49ers. The Eagles had not only Reggie White, but Clyde Simmons and Jerome Brown who would make Dak not want to even go out there and a coach who would tell his players to knock Aikman’s head off his body.

And contrary to popular belief, the Hogs had the best OL ever, especially the year prior when they only allowed like 7 sacks on mark rypieb the whole year.

Dak wouldn’t last a snap throwing to a 2 WR based timing offense and especially throwing to Irvin, who lacked speed to get open, especially on grass and had to rely on Troy’s accuracy to deliver it to where only he could catch it.

You sound like a clown.

I get why they do it. It's to prevent injuries to key personnel and saving them for later in the season. It sucks, but it's strategic long-term thinking.

Serious Question



Why is Dak always absolved of any blame when it comes to his poor play. After every INT, its either the receiver ran the wrong route or didnt do enough to break the pass up (see both ints when targeting ceedee in the endzone). After every fumble in the pocket (Sacks are a qb stat). And the most frequent excuse is scheme and lack of weapons. Was this not the same scheme when he was 2nd in mvp voting last season?







Cowboys twitter is filled with posts like this one. This is now the third offense where Dak fans have casted blame on the scheme.

The last question I pose is, what supposed top-5 QB have you seen constantly given these excuses for poor play? If he is as good as yall say, shouldnt his talent be able to overcome a “bad scheme”?

I‘m not happy with Dak’s play this year, but you bring up the very point that argues against this being a Dak problem. He was 2nd in MVP voting in the very same scheme with the same play caller. So what’s different is two rookie OL, Steele still not great, Martin declining further from age, and no Tony Pollard.

So bad running = more difficult passing + more pressure and you are going to get worse QB play. Thats not difficult to predict. I’d like to think the OL can get better over the year. All that said, I don’t think Dak is playing very well either, but I can’t put it all at Dak’s feet either.

Everyone saw this coming which is why Jerry is getting grief and he is getting all defensive.

And Dak had zeke who was also the top of running backs, what did he do with it? Nothing, Aikman and the greats that win seize the opportunity. Dak just missed his opportunity and now he and everyone that supports him can deal with all the criticism that he/yall deserve

Now you are starting to get it. Let's go done the line player by player and you will figure it out.

 

[NotForLong]

Because I look at his skill set. He’s a good QB. He’s not a great QB. He needs to be in the right system and have a talented roster around him. Dallas has failed him in that regard and again, one could argue he failed himself by not giving the FO more leverage to give him the talent he needs by negotiating a cap friendly deal.

When you’re a QB like Dak, one of the worst places, if not the worst, you could end up is Dallas where FA is an anathema and the FO almost completely relies on the draft to stock high end talent. The draft, even for good drafting teams, is way too hit and miss for a franchise to completely rely on it in order to build a championship roster.

Awwww poor Dak

What does youth have to do with talent???

First off you can't hear me circus freak.

 

[NotForLong]

You are clueless. Every player in the world after a loss says I/we have to be better.

Troy has more int's than Dak and more pick sixes on less pass attempts.

When does Jerry say he has to do better?

He says I am shocked and humbled. I was not shocked one bit. There are at least 8 teams that can do the exact same thing to us the Lions did to us.

The team is built for a lead has to be the dumbest idea I have ever heard of.

So when we are losing exactly how are you supposed to catch up, if we are not built to catch back up???

Pathetic

…just adding that Dak detractors are not wrong about his contract. If he takes 50m per year he still can knock down his perfectly fine 8800 sq ft house and have Derick Henry in the backfield and some additional DL help. So to me it’s shortsighted.

You're speaking logically. That does not work with feelings.

Apparently not everyone. Their feelings told them if Dak is being paid $60M he has to carry the team by himlself.

You said they had the most expensive team money can by.. you don’t know what you are talking about and I don’t even think you watched them play, the NFC wasn’t the trash dump it is now with Dak playing either.. plus the NFC owners the AFC back then.
