No, what I'm saying is he didn't look good. Totally different from sucking. Sucking involves significant negative plays. There was nothing of the sort.
Semantics! Sucking and not looking good??? Do you seriously want to argue that point?????? You have proven to be ridiculous and can't admit reality.

Yep. I commented on it in the other thread, but as minor as it is, it it a huge sign of character.
It goes beyond picking up a cup. It shows a humility, and as you said, character that most professional athletes do not have. He doesn't feel that he's better than anyone else. If he did, he would have let that cup sit there. You can tell a lot about a person with what they do when they don't know people are watching.

Just to throw it out there, Dak now has 21TD's (total) and only 2INT's.
To be fair, if we're gonna count his rushing TDs, we have to count his 3 lost fumbles. But 5 turnovers in 10 games is damn impressive. Anyone who says Dak isn't a BIG part of the reason were 9-1 isn't paying attention, or has an agenda.

No, this isn't semantics. We have to be the only fanbase who thinks 'sucking' means missing a few bad passes under heavy pressure.

That's normal to me.

Sucking means throwing picks, taking sacks, fumbling snaps.

Why do you take this as ANTI-Dak???? I just call them like i see them. I am 100% on the Dak bandwagon. That does not mean I cant call him out when he sucks.

Because any criticism of Dak means you are anti Dak.

Fouts made a statement that if Dak threw it about five yards further Williams catches the ball and scores. A likely event.

Which, in the game thread, was evidence of hate.

I don't buy the unflappable label. You pressure him and he flaps aplenty.

He recovers quickly is the key but an unflappable QB wouldn't have his mechanics go in the toilet under pressure.

Yeah that'll happen when the oline is collapsing or being shoved into you almost every single snap.

A real QB (one who is not a rookie) recognizes the blitz and changes the protection and or play to beat the blitz. Looks like they decided to allow the center to make the changes to the protections at halftime. Rookies suck !

I like that every game, someone else gets a chance to shine. It may be Zeke, or Witten, or Dez, Beasley, Butler, anyone. I think it helps guys play harder for him because they know he is depending on them all. It keeps the team balanced and not overly reliant on anyone.
Don't forget Mayle. He is Dallas' hidden treasure.

meh. Baltimre got pressure in his face in the first half and once again his mechanics went into the toilet demonstrated by his inaccuracy.

The difference was not Prescott. It was the OL who gave him all day to throw in the second half.

No QB does it by himself but you obviously know this, only choosing to ignore it. I guess 9 straight wins is all because the OL too?? If this was the case, it would have happened in 2014 with same OL and OPOY (Murray) and Romo. Instead of being petty, revel in this historic winning streak. Cowboys winning championship is the goal right?
