The Game Manager 32-36

[The Realist]

Who was saying it before tonight?

There were a lot of people who started chirping once we had our first loss since September. Why did they start then? Because they had nothing to complain about until then cuz we had gone 11-1 up until that point. Apparently I'm not the only one to see it.

I'm not your butler. Go look up the name for yourself.

That's funny. I haven't seen a single member calling for Dak to fail.

Would have had a lot more had we gotten out of our own way with penalties.

moot point.

this league scores only in total W's and L's

it does not score in points for or against.

Please post a list of those people.

With quotes about how they want Dak to fail...

Managed to get a 12th win in 14 games.

Lol. Somebody going to get a text from Dalrymple. I do love it when the players let their true feelings show about some of our fans, though. Can't help it.

Thank you so much for posting this thread and coming up with that title. It really is disgusting how bad some D people want to see Dak fail. Those who nothing about football pretending that they do.

Nobody wants to see Dak fail. That's nonsense.

They just want the best QB to play, and for the team to have the best chance at winning period.

I want Romo to play, but at this point, the team isn't going to make a change. Maybe if he pulls a Brees and has 0 TDs and 6 Ints in two losses to finish the season, but even if that happened, I don't think they would, and it would be a severe blow to the playoff positioning. So, barring an injury, we're just going to have to hope the OL continues to give Dak all day to throw and Zeke keeps running the hell out of the ball, so his weaknesses and rookie issues are masked and don't have much of an impact, like tonight.

They don't exist.

It's a myth, like the notion that Romo is a choker and a loser.

 

[haleyrules]

I think very, very few want him to fail. They're just afraid to commit. The more they enjoy what's happening now, the bigger the emotional investment, the worse the potential letdown.

You hit the nail on the head.

 

[THEHEREAFTER]

They're gonna be hard to find cuz they aren't making a peep now.

Surprisingly a few are here explaining how Dak didn't really do anything special...

Pretty sure Risen thinks different. (as title of thread suggests)

No tds throwing, but his best game of the year. No more Romo talk. GREAT TEAM WIN, and our d was AWESOME!

Ravens game was better.

Prolly another game or 2 he had was better.

Who was saying it before tonight?

Last week a good many people said only way to win in playoffs and in tough games was Romo. Board was covered in it

 

[The Realist]

That's funny. I haven't seen a single member calling for Dak to fail.

I can't think of a single person on the face of the earth who claims to be a Cowboys fan who would admit that outwardly......but just like in the days of Quincy....there were people who wanted it to be him so much, they let what they liked or wanted blind them to what was happening on the field. That's where some people are with Romo. They want it to be Tony so bad, the micro-analyze Dak, and pick apart everything he does. Never mind the fact that it's the best rookie season that any QB has ever had.

 

[FLCowboyFan]

The team is what matters. It's not about individuals

In other words people are silently wanting Dak to fail.

The team was 2-24 on 3rd down conversions the past two weeks. That's as deserving a time of criticism as any. That's not "picking anything apart". That is just an awful conversion rate.

Well completing 32-36. Only reason his qbr was 99, because sacked 3 times and didn't throw any tds. Reason I say this was his best game. He played the best d in the league right now. Last 5 games Bucs have had the best d. And Dak still only missed 4 throws, and I think zero in the 2nd half.
