The Dak Effect - 49 points

[Jumbo075]

Maybe, just maybe a healthy Dak Prescott does make a difference for this team. Going out on a limb…

Update/Clarification: Of course Dak doesn’t get ALL the credit. But the EFFECT of a healthy Dak is a better team performance, just like the EFFECT of Micah Parsons is better performances of the defensive players around him. (Seriously, some people need lessons in reading comprehension.)

This is where we say it's the Bears.

So Parsons TD gets credited to Dak?

 

[USArmyVet]

....so does a defensive TD and Pollard going for 131 rushing yards and 3 rushing TD's.

 

[MountaineerCowboy]

I don't think it's a coincidence that our run game and offense in general looked like this with Zeke in street clothes.

 

[Setackin]

Excellent game for Dak

Believe me, it’s coming.

another dak thread ? hmmm ?

The Tony Pollard effect, too.
Dak played a great first half, but it’s disingenuous to give him all of the credit for 49 points.

Zeke sitting and allowing Pollard to start was the difference today. Dak played good, but TP opened it up for Dak

 

[CalPolyTechnique]

The first thing I thought when Pollard broke that long run was "Dang, Dak's good!"

Running QBs are a problem for this D.

This will fly over the heads of 99% of cowboys fans. They are extremists. It's either we're the greatest or the worst. Absolutely no reason or unemotional thoughts.

 

[America's Cowboy]

The first thing I thought when Pollard broke that long run was "Dang, Dak's good!"

Yes, he is!

 

[Aven8]

I thought he was sharp out there. The pick before half sucked but that was just being too aggressive by Mike.

 

[ConstantReboot]

I think Zeke staying on the sidelines helped the offense a lot. It allowed Kellen Moore to be more creative and we lean on Pollard to run the ball.

As I said before, Zeke is the reason why this offense is stalling at times. We don't need Zeke.

Bears defense isn’t that bad they are actually pretty good against the pass.
