The Cowboys Have Plenty to Think About This Offseason but Not Their QB | The Ringer

[America's Cowboy]

What bothers me is you can read THEIR OWN posts from pre-season, week 2 and many other times.
They KNOW all this and either don't care or are just swept up in the emotion of losing a game where we were 4-point underdogs.

Yep, hence why I've said recently this forum has taken a serious nosedive.

 

[America's Cowboy]

...and you and the other failed to mention that you would take any of those QB's over Dak.

I would take 2 or 3, not all.

Which 2 or 3 out of curiosity?

For sure, Mahomes and Burrow. Maybe Allen since he's shown he struggles in the playoffs against very good Defenses. Rodgers is too old and declining. Hurts is a dual threat but limited. Herbert is OK but has his flaws under pressure.

Interesting. I will stand by my statement that all are better than Dak.

 

[fivetwos]

The best thing for Dallas Cowboys immediate future would be Dak being so horrible that they can't justify keeping him.

That is the only path to real success for the Cowboys.

I remember hoping for Garrett to fall flat on his fraud face, but there are too many teams in the league either not trying or tanking for the future to beat up on.

And when he did we only got Jerrys next puppet.

Maybe forget that angle lol.

I respect your decision, but I'll stand with mine for the reasons I stated. Dak has talent, but he's never been properly coached. Get him to train under someone like Kurt Warner, we would all see a big improvement in both physical ability and decision making. My other issue with Dak is how much he is currently overpaid and how it's affecting this team.

He will be entering his 8th season as a starter and the fact he needs proper coaching speaks more towards Dak's inadequacies as a starting QB than anything else.

 

[Cowboysheelsreds058]

It would be nice if that were actually true.

But here are getting ready to head to Dak's 8th year and he's been nothing but rewarded for being a loser.

LOL, Lex Luger!

 

[Qcard]

Yeah, yet all but 2 of those QBs had more negative EPA games than Dak. Ironic how you failed to mention that.

Dak Haters are infected with a Dallas Cowboys original sin....Loving thy Back-up QB!

The Lockeroom saw Coopers stripes.....what do they call a leader with No followers....

Nope. I disagree.

What good QB coaching has Dak received the last 3-4 years? Seriously. Plus, those saying that Dak is too old to learn and how he has reached his maximum are delusional. Dak is currently in his prime. QBs nowadays play well into their late 30s. Dak is 29. Dak can definitely learn more and improve on his game with better coaching and training.

It's not that hard to figure out, you just won't like the answer.

Like many on this board you WANT it to be a Dak problem when it is really not.
The OL was well below average, the WR corps was well below average, and you lost the explosive RB before half-time.
You also happened to be playing the league's top ranked defense.
All that was probably fine if you had luck with health on defense but you lost CB2 and CB3.
It left you very susceptible to short passing and run game teams.
And you had a kicker who couldn't even make a 25-yard kick.

Getting to the divisional round was EXPECTED level of performance not a major disappointment except to goofy fans with their heads buried in the sand.

People KNEW BEFORE the year this team was a bit undermanned.

The biggest disappointments were the Kicker falling apart when it mattered most, the zero return for Tolbert and Washington as expected WR3/4 and the lack of run stop until they signed Hankins.

So you had no disappointment with your boy?

Show us the 7 year learning curve so far.

 

[America's Cowboy]

Show us the 7 year learning curve so far.

First, show me his QBs coaches and O-Coordinators.

 

[SteveTheCowboy]

Ah....typical non answer deflection. You should be able to defend your statement.
He has this big impoved learning curve coming? Theres very little to say thst is true. Hes been flat lining.....but that is of course all on coaching......the blame game.
Okay...fine, we should just leave it at that then.

Dak Prescott of course

So what you're saying is, if we get the perfect o line and some great weapons, Dak will excel?

But what do we need Dak for then? In such an environment Rush could win a Superbowl. I thought we pay Dak as much because he can win WITHOUT the perfect team around him?

Ah f*** it, this team won't go anywhere. Yay for another +500 season and clapping fans like Rockport and America's Cowboys.

To be fair, Prescott played fewer games than everyone on the list.

 

[USArmyVet]

To be fair, Prescott played fewer games than everyone on the list.

...and had more INT's than all of them in spite of playing fewer games.
