The trend of 12-5 back to back seasons?

Even if it’s just the games he played he’s well over .500 and it’s not trending down lol
Dak can’t match his 2016 rookie season 8 years later but his fans think he’s not trending down lolololol

He’s trended down for 8 years running. Now he’s leading the NFL in INTs while missing 5 games.

How much lower must he go?

Dak Prescott has a W-L of 61-36 in the regular season. Or a 62.8% winning percentage.

In order to get close to .500 he would either have to lose 25 games in a row or go 36-61 to end up at .500
Or win around 6 games a year over a 6 year span.

Not seeing that

Averaging means absolutely nothing. It's a jackass statistic for lazy fools. I forget what year it was, I think it was 2019 where the Cowboys averaged something close to that. If they actually scored that many points per game they would have been 12-4. But they didn't and went 8-8. Yet they averaged around 28 PPG. Anyone that takes this statistic seriously is just being lazy.

6-11 for five straight seasons is perfectly reasonable if you account for the fact that he’s never had a losing season. He’s due man.

Dallas PPG by season (points scored do not take into account defensive TD's but rather overall points scored so one would have to subtract any defensive points scored):

2016: 26.3 ppg
2017: 22.1 ppg
2018: 21.2 ppg
2019: 27.1 ppg
2020: 24.7 ppg (Dak missed 11-1/2 games)
2021: 31.1 ppg (Dak missed 1 game)
2022: 27.5 ppg (Dak missed 5 games)

So while some want to try and create a narrative based on using 2019-2022, the fact is 2016-2018 saw the Dak led offense (again with the caveat above) average 23.2 ppg which is why I presume those years were left out of the OP's post.

So what?

Where are the Lombardi's?
Where are the appearances in Conference Championship games?

Its just numbers which mean nothing.

Dak is a good QB; how good is arguable. Good enough to win a SB? Sure. But so was Romo. Nuts look at the QBs that have rings: Dilfer, Brad Johnson, Flacco, Eli, Stafford, Foles.

I would pick Dak over any of them.
Understood and agreed.

If this team stays healthy, it has a chance to go further in the playoffs.

How is a ranking of how a team performed with a specific coordinator an agenda?

You can't just say that anything good about Dak is selective and based on an agenda lol.
Nowhere in the OP's original post was Moore referenced and for that matter, if you are going to justify it by using Moore for why only 2019-2022 were used then one can argue that it was Moore who in fact turned the offense around in Dallas and not Dak.

You just had to ring @MountaineerCowboy's dinner bell didn't you. LOL.

In all fairness to his persistent disdain to all things Dak, he has on occasion provide viable logic for his perspectives. If nothing else you have to admire his dedication to his craft. Also, that avatar is the perfect accompaniment to a Dak rant.

With the perceived high talent level that this team possesses are the Dak supporters willing to concede anything other than a deep playoff run reflects quite negatively on our QB? I state with the understanding of course that our O-Line in a long awaited NFCCG doesn't consist of four non-starters.
They will concede nothing.

The upcoming failure will be everyone but Daks fault.

Dak changed his throwing motion and mechanics in 2018, hence why the Offense's ppg average production increased dramatically after 2018. Since you wanted some historical facts for years 2016 - 2018, there you go. About time you give Dak some credit for improving his mechanics and throwing motion which has greatly improved his QB passing.

The Cowboys win a SB and it’s a team game. We come up short and it’s Daks fault. Team putting up 29.9 points a game should have no problem. But you need a complete team and coaching staff when you hit the playoffs and talent is even. Need a game plan with play calling. All 3 phases need to play well. A kicker that makes his kicks. Defense to make stops and get off the field. Offense that controls the clock.
