CFZ The QB position needs to be addressed

[KJJ]

Despite three TD passes and a 35 point blowout some fans still want Dak replaced. Granted he’s been throwing more INT‘s this season, but since his return to the lineup the Cowboys are the highest scoring team in the NFL. He’s had four games with 100.0 passer rating or higher. No QB in the league is perfect. Josh Allen has thrown 11 INT’s and has four games with multiple INTs.

Didn't you guys say they wanted Dak to take more chances, to throw with anticipation and throw guys open...... More interceptions will happen when you do that. When the ball is out and the receiver is just starting his break all it takes is for the receiver to fall down or not be crisp and it's a big possibility it's picked off.

Either you want him to take the risk and have a chance of a pick or wait for guys to get open. Pick one though so we don't have to hear the constant whining.

All that being said, his picks are coming in the first half so if you are going to have them it's better they don't happen late in games

 

[Irvin88_4life]

Not much you can do when YOU JUST AREN'T ACCURATE....he is what he is, and it isn't changing....gonna have to live with it for now because of Booger and Chuckles.

Now play the one that happened this off-season against Justin Herbert and Dak

As title states, the QB position needs to be addressed.


Regardless of how you feel about him, there are facts that cannot be denied. Dak has thrown at least one Interception in every game he has started this season (except the Vikings game). The turnovers HAVE to stop. I don’t care if it’s miscommunication or simple lack of ability, TAKE CARE OF THE BALL. It is his SOLE responsibility to get the ball into the hands of the playmakers and he gets it in the hands of the opposing playmakers. It’s why we lost against the Packers. It’s why we struggle in every first half of games.


That leads me to my next point— STOP THE COLD STARTS. The cold starts HAVE to STOP. When we play Philly. When we play in the playoffs, these little prissy teams like the Colts, Lions, and Bears may allow that to slide, but the Eagles won’t. The 49ers (who are still a good team, mind you. They won 33-17 last night, have CMC, an excellent defense, and a great coaching staff). Even Bucs and Brady. They will not allow this self destruction. And what happens when we self destruct early? We start to throw. And what happens when we throw too much and rely on Dak? We lose. It’d be another wasted year, except worse. A wasted talented defense (with run flaws). Waste of Pollards last cheap and excellent year.


He threw for 170 yards last night and still played poorly. The run game and defense are what saved this team. He had short field on majority of his drives and struggled and was only saved by our run game and ridiculous catches made by Ceedee and Gallup. Something needs to be done. Now we need a plan of action.


Next year’s draft isn’t looking too good for those looking to invest in QBs and we can’t trade. We’ll likely need to draft in 2024 for a QB. We need to prepare now. Sign Pollard, cut Zeke, prepare for Dak to leave in 24/25 ish and go from there.

Until then, we need to make like McVay in 2018 when he got Goff to a Super Bowl. Hide his flaws as much as possible. It will be hard because Dak’s intangibles are much harder to hide that Goff’s, who’s only real intangibility was inability to read a defense.

Anyone else have any input on what should be done? What can we do to assure this team’s chances of success can remain high?

My input is “Cheer for your damn team and QB.” Save these ideas for the off-season which is the 9th time it makes any sense or has any relevance.

Minus the INT's, Dak is just a little better than Cooper Rush. He is good enough with this great team around him to win some big games but not consistently. There is potential they could go all the way but it wont be because Dak pulled the team over the finish line. The team will need to pull Dak over that line.

To me, that does not equate to 40 mil a year. There are a lot of QB in NFL today that could elevate this team way above where we sit with Dak. Dak "might" be good enough to get us there if he has good luck on top of the team all doing their jobs.

Do not expect Dak to win the day for us like other 40 mil QB's.

 

[DoctorChicken]

Everyone already knows this. We know the cold starts have to stop. We all know Prescott is very hot and cold in his play.

But if you think this team is going to draft a QB early sometime soon, you're kidding yourself. The QB is Dak for the foreseeable future. Love it or hate it.

This post is not going to be well received after a blowout win.
You better hunker down.

First off, you need to take a deep breath and think of what you are suggesting.

You have a team that is coming together like no other the last 26 years. The Cowboys finally have a defense. The hue and cry about this team and their quarterback is he needs to play within the system, and not do too much.

So yesterday he played within the system and didn't do too much. And here you come with this litany of the team is doomed. It's a never ending rant and no one is satisfied with this guy.

What can we do? By your thesis, we can't do anything for two years. And while we wait on this golden era coming because we can't get rid of the guy who operates the number one scoring offense in the league, the defense ages, plays well enough to prevent a high draft pick, and the middle of the pact virus prevents Dallas taking a top QB in the draft. And even then, if Dallas can position themselves to get a top QB, the odds of feast or bust lean so far in the favor of bust, your panic attack was sort of a wasted effort.

And if you do a modicum of research, you will see his offenses have been the best scoring three of the last four years. And that year was the broken ankle year.

You ask for input. Take off your broken glasses and enjoy the winning. It is rare.

And maybe get on a consistent program of taking your medicine.

Nothing but draft a solid prospect or trade for a capable QB
On top of the int's Dak's thrown, he's had another 4 or 5 balls defenders have flat dropped. Everytime he tries to throw over 15 yds on a rope he sails it high (common of overthrowing). His lobs are decent. The bottom line? If you need to drive the field to save the game with little time on the clock DO YOU THINK DAK WILL GET IT DONE?
not a chance
Qb needs to be addressed next year

Our fans are some of the dumbest outside Philadelphia

Don't know, NY and DC fans should be in that conversation...

 

[DogFace]

This thread is an example of why the internet is bad.

 

[DallasEast]

But if you think this team is going to draft a QB early sometime soon, you're kidding yourself.

Jerry Jones committed to Dak Prescott in late October 2016. Early last year, Jones quadrupled down on Prescott by signing him to a $160 million dollar contract.

It is 2022. Some people are years past kidding themselves. They're on acid.

 

[Flamma]

This post is ridiculous. There are at least 20 teams in the NFL right now that would gladly take Dak off the Cowboys hands. Finding a QB at Dak's level or better is one the hardest things for NFL teams to do. There are a fair number of teams that have been looking for a decade or more.

The post is not ridiculous. Everyone seems fixated on the Dak part. You don't have to blame Dak and recognize what he pointed out was happening. Focus on his observations without blaming a single person.

 

[Wangchung83]

Facts is without however many turn overs, last night would have been a dog fight. No one can rely on their defense to have that kind of game against better teams. Obviously we have fans that only see stats, something that Dak loads up, but definitely doesn’t tell the true story. Stats don’t say when a crucial turnover took place, when we stop scoring and moving the ball for an entire forth quarter, etc. Even when everyone can see with their own eyes where we’re headed, it will be someone’s else fault. If he throws interceptions it will be receivers fault, if he gets beat by pints it will be defenses fault, if it’s just his fault it will be blamed on refs. Dak won’t ever take responsibility for his mistakes, which is a quality that will hold him back. His fanboys will tell you to go get another team, call you a troll, ignorant, say you don’t understand football, ask if you’ve played, etc. They don’t understand the word Deflection or that it’s a defense mechanism. This years excuse will be run defense, in reality it it will be all of the above but not bc of Dak. Hope I’m wrong, but he isn’t the 3 round pick that outperformed his contract anymore. He’s just an overpaid mediocre qb that has to have strong supporting cast in order to succeed. If Jalen Hurts asks for 40 million and loses his weapons as well as can’t pay the defense then expect the same in a few years. I’d gladly eat crow if he get past the nfc championship or even get to the nfc championship.

 

[ShortRound]

I can understand after a loss but after a 54-19 victory?

 

[jgboys1]

He seems somewhat off at times, but this is a bad time to regress, we have a legit shot at winning in 22 or 23. We could do a lot worse that Dak

Agree and I am not the worlds biggest Dak fan. Keep well enough alone.

All that being said, his picks are coming in the first half so if you are going to have them it's better they don't happen late in games

they just want to complain and bash Dak....if Dak goes left they will be saying, he should be going more to the right, if he goes right, they say, he should have stayed left. no matter what he does, they will complain. they demand a perfect game. and if he has close to a perfect game, they will say the other team was tired or over rated or something. it doesn't matter. they have an agenda. they just want to bash dak as much as they can.
