Yep. It was crazy how Allen couldn't keep the Chiefs from tying the game in 13 seconds. Then he lost the coin toss in OT and never touched the ball again.

Clearly the same as what went on in Jerryworld.
All Allen's fault.

Many people here are not Cowboys fans but pretend to be fans in order to come here and exclaim players, coaches and management suck.

One members here is a die hard Eagles fan but claims to be a Cowboys fan.

The only Cowboys players he likes are the ones he liked as draft prospects. He loves to collect likes from Cowboys fans when he bashes the team. He can then go back to the Eagles message board and show them how moronic Cowboys fans have him likes for bashing the team.

He loved Wentz and hates Dak.

He only loved Wentz while he was with the Eagles...
Why in the f would anyone pretend to be a Cowboys fan?

That's how you feel, but I disagree. Let people be the fans they want to be. Who appointed you as judge and jury? You are one of the fans I enjoy the least on here because you spend so much time posting negatively about those who post negatively. If mods should shut someone down it should be you for name-calling IMO. I had hoped you had changed during your sabbatical, which I enjoyed immensely, but it doesn't seem that you have.

I don't like to put anyone on ignore because I believe in trying to have a rational discussion with anyone, but sometimes you make that very hard. I expect you to respond negatively to all this, but I'm only saying how I know plenty of others feel. Let those who hate Dak hate him. Ignore them or respond with facts or something other than just calling them a hater. Calling them that is just childish and annoying.

Obviously, you are free to express yourself however you see fit. I'm only saying what I believe many of us feel about it. Insulting other fans who come here to talk about the Cowboys is just unnecessary and uncalled for.
Thank you!!

Please stop complaining. We can't have the best player at every position. But we can have a top 10 at any given position which is how you build a team.

People love Josh Allen. 4 years nothing to show for it. Last season stats for all the threads that say Dak will never be on Josh Allen's level

Allen 4400 yards 36 tds 15 int. Did go to afc title game and had #1 defense in the league

Dak. 4400 yards 37 tds 10 int. Played as well as he could coming off career threatening injury. First round loss with 19th ranked D. Give Allen 19th ranked D and Dak #1 RANKED D and see how far we go

But for some reason Dak is putting up better numbers than 80% of the QBs in the league but he sucks. All the other QBs that don't win get a pass but not one Dak.

All and all we still have a top 10 QB, RB, TE, OG, DE, LB, CB. Wildcard = Lamb

We need to start the season off on the right foot and play TEAM BALL and if we start to suck then we can talk about Dak, Jerry, Stephen, Zeke and anyone else
So pathetic

Lmao at thinking Allen is in another universe as Dak. Allen actually has a coaching staff who utilizes his strengths and can gameplan the offense to put the best players in the best position. Dak has played with Garrett and Kellen. Also has a much better defense to lean on. He won a playoff game where his offense gained a total of 220yds and his defense scored as many TDs as his offense did. His defense gave up 3pts to a potent Ravens offense. Imagine if our defense actually showed up like that in a playoff game. But nope, our defense is terrible when it matters most.
You give such a biased account to fit your narrative. You fail to mention the play off games Allen played against the Colts when he was amazing and carried the team to the win. He won them the game and only a couple of other quarterbacks in the league could have perhaps done the same. To me that's what an elite quarterback is capable of doing.

Dak has never done that for the Cowboys and please don't bring up the Seahawks play off win. Granted he made one nice play with his legs but if people are objective Wilson actually played a better game with an inferior team and he wasn't allowed to cook.

For those that say Allen hasn't won anything in 4 years well what more could/should he have done against the Chiefs in the play offs last season? He played out of his mind, carried the team again but his amazing coaching staff and defense were unable to keep the Chiefs away from field goal range with 12-13 seconds remaining including leaving Kelce open to make the key play! That's some far out high level coaching. In reality had Tre White not been injured then there's a strong argument they end up playing the Rams in the Superbowl.

There are levels in sport and Prescott is well below Allen in the pecking order.

I'm pretty sure Denver fans said the same thing about John Elway. He was in the NFL for about 14 years before he won his first Super Bowl. So, it's not how careers start that matter, its how they end. Dak isn't done yet.

We're about to see. If the BIG fail happens at the end of the year, even Jerry will begin to plan for the next QB. You're only given so many chances to get
the job done or you get replaced in this NFL (Not For Long) era.

Dak is good, not great. there is nothing wrong with that. teams have won and gone to superbowl with good and average QBs. its just being able to build a right team around the QB. most of the people who raz on Dak blame him for not being Elite. well, he is not and how many Elite's are there? he is what he is and I think he is good enough. but the question we should ask is "is jerry good enough?" and the answer is a resounding no. 28+ years say so and the last time he won it, was the team Johnson built, not the team he put together. so yeah, 30 years say no.

and I always argue, that no player alone can lift a team. Brady can't make Geoff Swaim into Gronkoski....but Elite QBs, given the resources can accomplish great things. every great QB has had resources and they maximize those resources. that's they key. can Dak maxmize his resources on offense? be more consistent? and can this defense be good enough and dominate? can this defense win a few games when offense isn't doing good. can we win a 10-9 game?

if this defense plays well, we have a good chance.

Well you’re one of the constantly negative fans so I’m not surprised you don’t like me.

You make it so easy to not like you, which is sad because you and me are both Marine Corps vets. I should consider you a brother just for that alone but you make that impossible.

When you constantly berate people for not thinking like you by calling them haters or other names that should have gotten you banned a number of years ago, what does that make you? A hater.

what are all you "positive" people rooting for if not winning a superbowl? I am going to criticize what I see until we make a good run at doing that, like we did 27 years ago.

I'm not here to root for best in show for dressing up as a Dallas Cowboy, or playing trading cards with rookie draft picks... I want championships and if the organization is not making good runs to get those, there is something wrong with it. 27 years.

Jerry and the players are big boys, they can take the criticism. they can also get over doing the same thing all the time and never achieving anything... do better.

I am here to tell them that until it sticks. If you aren't then i'd REALLY like to know why you are a Cowboys fan?

That sounds so good but it’s all BS. The haters are gonna hate. They Pupdog is going to hate on Dak. Mods won’t shut them down so someone has to at least try. At least make em look like the fools they are.

Here's the thing about that. The constant negativity can get annoying, but they're not in any way violating site rules with it. What does violate site rules? Personal attacks. You're one of the major instigators of personal attacks. To be fair, you don't always start it and sometimes are just defending yourself. It's still violating the rules, unlike speaking poorly of the team.

It's not your job to be the fan police. It's not your job to decide how anyone else is a fan of the team. I actually enjoy your perspectives and views on the team when you stick to those.

Regarding perpetual rah rah and not seeing the flaws of the team? That's detrimental because it's precisely what Jerry Jones wants and contributes to him not making needed management changes. Nobody here wants the Cowboys to lose or suck. They're just frustrated because it's been the same thing since 1996 and that all stems from one source.

That they're still here following the team is testament that they are indeed fans of the team.

Well said my friend!! The hate for Dak is so hilarious. Those same coward *** haters hate when you put up production examples... thats when they go to their fall-back excuse..... "buh buh but stats don't matter".

When Dak's numbers are comparable to other good quarterbacks, thats when the "stats don't matter" clause kicks in.

On another note, J. Allen is SPECIAL special. That dude is in his own lane.

Well, you don’t get it.

I get that you think the motivating factor has something to do with you trying to help new potential posters be exposed to something other than negativity. When you engage in constant verbal sparring, you are fulfilling it for your own pleasures. It has nothing to do with helping someone else find a positive poster experience.

There’s nothing here but echo chambers and a void to vent (and sure for some bonding experience with other posters if you spend enough time nurturing a relationship). Since you cannot give someone else their opinion, just give your take on the topic if you like and let them see the other perspective. If they don’t want to see things from your perspective, don’t take it seriously. If they belittle your perspective, remind them that your opinion and theirs don’t line up and to get over it. If you feel like their perspective is dragging you down, put them on ignore.
