I really like the way the Te's looked yesterday...i have hope!

I agree on Bease and Gallup....they need to get that ironed out. Other than the Saints game...Dak has struggled with Gallup all year.

Had that walk-in bomb to Gallup. Thing is, if Dak could aim, Gallup's numbers would look a lot like Cooper's and Dak would be #1 in the NFL in pretty much every single passing category. At least he's 22nd now and not as close to the bottom.

Like you ignore the fact that the OL is in complete shambles. Complete and utter shambles. You don't deem that important?

Dak is constantly scrambling.

This line can't even create a pocket for Dak to step up in to.

Also........this was a divisional game. Everything is thrown out the window. Stats, who beat whom and wins and losses.

The front four of Philly aren't any slouches either.
Nope he still had a robotic armed holding machine in Smith and a Turnstyle at RT in Collins in front of him. HE NEEDS TO PERFORM BETTER WITH THAT IN FRONT OF HIM!

hahahah

Isn't that reason enough to say let's let him develop? I mean, this is insanity to say otherwise.

Fair argument Kazuya. I will defend Dak because I understand what he is, and he isn’t elite. But I also defended Romo, and he was elite. You might think I’m going somewhere with this post, but I’m not.

Loved Romo, but he was never elite. He was never a top 5 QB when he played.

I’m not concerned with the INTs at all. He’s only thrown INTs in 4 games this year which seems familiar to what the recent Cowboy QBs did. Would have some bad games with multiple INTs but then go stretches without any. I am a little concerned about the fumbles. I wish his pocket presence was better and that he’d take off and run when things aren’t there (could slide to not take hits).

He and Gallup really need to work in the deep ball. I forgot Gallup let up on that one pass so it wasn’t just Daks fault.

He has some glaring weaknesses to his game. I will say this, 4th quarters like last night and this 5-1 run (30-15 overall) tell me there's something there. Get him some real coaches, shore up the OL and replace Beasley with Tate and let's see. I would definitely do everything I can to make the offense perfect for him in 2019.

This... ^^^^^^^

It was criminal what we sent him to battle with. Defenses were not scared at all.

Yet the haters gave him no quarter. Only said that he wouldn't be able to utilize him like Dez...lol

So they were wrong on needing weapons, Dez is not at fault, and Dak won't be able to get Amari the ball.

LOL!!!! Nice job haters.

LOL......I remember. Said he would be a waste here in Dallas with Dak here. Too funny.

Trolls are really taking it on the chin.

Bad Dak, Good Dak. Ying Yang.
Don't see how ppl can get on here and hype up Dak, but that's me, dude was the reason why the game was close.
Don't see how ppl can comfortably call Dak trash when he delivers in the clutch.

Problem is most y'all acting like y'all don't see both sides of Dak. Also, there's a difference between critiquing and hating learn that ish.

Everybody right, ok. He trash n treasure at the same time.

I have no idea why we don't compare Goff's rookie season to what Dak has been dealing with more often.

Goff had one of the worst OCs in the league and one of the best RBs in Gurley. Which is eerily similiar to Dak's position

Goff completed 54.6% of his passes, 5 TDs to 7 INTs, 5.3 YPA, 155.6 ypg in 7 games. So 155.6 ypg, 5/7th TDpg, 1 INT pg at 54.6% while Gurley never missed a game

Dak in his dreadful season last year
62.9% on 6.8 ypa with 22 TDs and 13 INTs
207.8 ypg, 1.375 TDpg, 1.0625 INTpg
While Zeke missed 6 games

I wont include rushing stats because thats an obvious blowout

Get Dak a good OC and watch this thing blow up

Wouldn’t he have to play five in a row to get that?
I guess it depends on how far you want to go into cherry picking land. Fitzpatrick is just an example, you can get a good five game stretch out of just about anyone. Heck you can get a surprisingly good five game stretch out of the third string QB for a 3-10 team, Nick Mullens.

5 wins

136 of 181 for 75% completion percentage at 8.1 ypc for 1471 yards at 294.2 yards per game average.

7 Passing Tds and 2 ints.

3 rushing Tds.

106.8 rating.

3 Game Winning Drives.

Sacked 20 times.



Bring your Average, Bus Driver and Tebow comments....and look silly.
It would take Tebow 10 games to throw for 455 yds.

Two touchdowns, missed with picks. 4 points for settling for three on the first drive and a missed field goal.

yah right. So every drive ends in a TD? Get outta here. YOu could realistically say 10 points maybe. Add back 6 points on the missed FG and then the botched snap that killed the game winning FG before OT.

How many more points does Dak have were it not for the multitude of penalties on the Oline. Smith with 3 all by himself. If Gallup doenst slow his route on that one bomb thats another 7 points.

Don’t think all the fumbles are relevant to this conversation? @Ken
I am not of the mindset that fumbles by the qb in the pocket are his fault.

That is just me though. I didn't hold it against Romo or anyone else in the league and I don't hold it against Dak. Some really boil my blood though. The qb sneak fumble definitely.

The silly tap the ball out and pick it up are just flukey plays. Get strip sacked when non one is open and you are trying to make a play....i can't blame the qb.

I cant understand what you are saying. I think you are complimenting him.

But when coupling Daks stretch of success, with the fact they’re winning games, it becomes much more than just a QB playing well.

The kid has the second most wins since being drafted for a reason. This is the first year we had a defense to count on too.
