We had Hilton open multiple times and dak missed him. I don't care how many weapons you have if Dak can't make the plays.
And Hilton was playing well for the few weeks leading up. Now the team has no weapons or talent? lol every year is a new excuse. Last year he had Lamb and Cooper. Same crap different season! But I’m sure it will be fixed for next year! :rolleyes:

The fall off, is nuts. One game, Dak plays like MVP.
Next game, he can't find his fingers, to tie his shoes.
..it's bizarre..

It's inconsistency and the reason he was not drafted until the 4th round. He has improved on his accuracy but he is not as consistent with it as he should be and he doesn't hit his WR's in stride enough to help them get YAC.

He had 7 games with picks and then had the TB game and we bought that one game as he was fixed. That game was the anomaly.

Better protection? They've stacked the Oline with high draft picks, pro bowlers, and future hall of famers.

More weapons?
They signed his RB partner to a long term deal; they used #1 picks on 2 receivers, they have a dynamic #2 RB

My God what else can they do? You can't have hall of famers at every position.
Why not? Aikman did.

They are all on him. Everyone agrees that it’s Dak and also they need to bring in a new OC to see if they could salvage him.

Dak said with Erin Andrews on Sunday’s interview that he didn’t come out of his house for two weeks last year after the loss. I wouldn’t suggest coming out for months after this one
Yeah, I know I like to ruminate. The best thing he can do for a while is get out and about. Go to Europe. Get away from football for a while.

Joe burrow is the perfect example.. he's had one of the worst ols in football the last few years but here he is,one game from his second straight SB..in his 3rd year.
That’s why Jerry didn’t think he needed to invest in the OL during the peak Romo years.

Jerry thought Romo had Burrow type ability.

Well, that and Hudson Houck being the highest paid OL coach in the league.

I think most of us are catching on to the problem….they think they can will a situation into existence.

I’ve been listening to a lot of sports talk radio the past two days and the consensus seems to be that Dak just can’t read defenses very well. That if Dallas hast to keep Dak then they have to surround him with more weapons and better protection.
While I generally agree with this, It should be pointed out that Purdy has all the weapons and yet gets a lot of the credit for winning. The Same with Jalen Hurts. Hurst plays behind 3 pro-bowl offensive linemen, two are probably going into the HoF, and he is surrounded by quality skill position players. Yet who is the top rated QB in the league? You cannot have it both ways. If the weapons make the QB, the Dak should get more credit and Hurts/Purdy less.

That OL GAVE UP ONLY 6 PRESSURES ALL GAME, MICAH HAD 8 ON THEM ALONE!!!!!!!
Can you provide a link? I'd like to review the O line only giving up pressure 6 times out of 60 plays. I counted 13.
Trent W - 1 hurry
McGlitchey - 5 hurries
Brendel - 1 hit
Banks - 2 hurries
Burford - 1 hurry
Brunskill - 3 hurries.

I read it on a tweet on Monday tbh, not sure if it was on Twitter or on here. The whole pressure thing us subjective though depending on who is "marking it"

It's not though, it's a real stat that includes pressure, not just sacks. It's a valuable way to recognize how effective a defender is without ONLY going by sacks.
Parsons is generational, but he's had some slow periods this season. He's looked banged up and slower at times. He had 1 tackle all game. That being said, that's how it works, he's not going to be All World every snap.
