BUT...But....lol

Oh brother...

That is pretty ugly for Wentz fans.

I guess no one told the NFL Network that these stats don’t matter.

Not knocking this, but there's a lot that goes into it.

How many fourth-quarter game-winning situations did all the quarterbacks face? Dak has the most, but did he also have the most opportunities?

Second, how high is other QBs' rating in the fourth quarter? Because not all QBs get the same amount of GW opportunities, QB rating in the quarter can be a measure for how well they play when the game's on the line, even if they are ahead.

Don't get me wrong, I'd much rather our QB have the most than the least and be playing well when those opportunities present themselves, but it's hard to judge the value of the information without context.

That means the Cowboys were losing in the 4th quarter 14 times,
I would rather Dak have zero game winning drives in the 4th quarter.

I remember the stats posted once and found the tweet about it.

I didnt know that... wow, I think we should give him a 10 year deal for 500 million. We cant play around and lose a guy like that.

Starting a dialogue with Charles Barkley?
Sign me up!

Garrett should get all the credit!!!

So at this time Dak had six more opportunities than Wentz, if we're just comparing the two. We could probably assume that Philly would not have gone 6-0 with those opportunities, but it's really impossible to know. If the Eagles would have gone 6-0, then the record with Wentz at QB would be 10-12, so we can know for certain that recordwise, his team would not have done as well as Dallas did with Dak in those opportunities.

That would be better. Let's stop forcing our QB to have to lead game-winning drives. Some other teams make it easier on their QB by actually establishing leads and holding on to them.

Of course, this is nothing different than we saw with this team with Romo at QB, the need for comebacks because our defense blew a lead. Hopefully, we're getting the defense to the point where that won't be the case and it will simply be up to the offense to give it a lead to protect.

I swear Im not a Dak bashing person who will spin everything against him, but he has been really consistent at an inability to get early leads. Most of his 4th quarter game winning drives is because he was awful in quarters 1 - 3 at least in the red zone. He needs to up his early game.

Hard to have an opinion with the OPs post and pic of that beauty at the bottom. What’s this thread about anyway?

You do realize that most every game is decided in the 4th quarter?

Cheerleaders and the future of whataburger now that they are owned by a Chicago firm. Mostly cheerleaders.

I love Prescott and am a supportive fan, but this isn't always a great thing. My point is the offense needs to establish an earlier lead and not have to either rely on a comeback or the defense.

Is it?

This is the NFL. Get used to it. It's going to happen all the time.

Only Brady has more 4th quarter comeback wins than Dak.
