The Sound Of Silence

[nate dizzle]

It has now been nearly 3 weeks since our implosion in the WC game. 3 weeks of Dak getting absolutely annihilated in the press and on social media by everyone and, literally, their mother.

There has been nothing but silence. For someone who is supposedly a great leader, the players who supposedly are the ones that follow this leader, have said nothing to support him. His offensive linemen, silence. WRs? Silence. Ferguson? Silence. Pollard? Silence. Defense? Silence. Coaches? Silence. Ownership? Not so thinly veiled shots across the bow, "we'll go as far as Dak takes us, and that's how far we went."

This entire organization has turned its back on Dak. Honestly, and this is coming from a Dak "hater," I feel kind of bad for the guy. It's not like he doesn't try hard or put in the work to be successful, he just isn't that guy and never will be. The choke glitch is mental and no amount of extra practice or film watching is going to fix that.

That said, he does work hard, but he has lost the locker room and organizational support. He should ask for a trade just based on what he should be viewing as the team sticking a knife in his back.

How? What part of what I said is untrue

It is the players time off. Time to be with their families. Take trips, or do nothing. Why should they be talking to the media.
Dang, let them be. I am sure once FA rolls around, there will be some comments. Probably all the normal cliches'.

No one turned their back on anyone just becasue they have not said what you want them to say.
Just another bash Dak thread IMO.

Front 3 or 4 pages now loaded with this type of stuff.

I think TAD showed the way how things are after his brother's last CHOKE job.
Something is brewing and it is all 100% concerning Dak.
Yes, the problem has come home for Jerry and all roads lead to a decision between the health of STAR and extending a loser of a QB named Dak Prescott.
I'll double down on the STAR!!!!

Time off or not, it takes under a minute for these guys to tweet something. Dak has been getting crushed and nobody has even a minute to spare to defend the guy, even if it's a cliché...nothing though? Come on man.

Dak's only supporters are here in the CZ maybe a dozen or so who still defend the undefendable.

The GB loss was brutal for the entire franchise. No one gets a pass for that crapfest.

The L was especially brutal for Dak. To play the way he did at home, against a 7 seed is simply inexcusable.

With the “bag” comes great responsibility. He has yet to deliver his end of the deal. There are no excuses.

2024 is setting up to be a horror show. I would be shocked if we win 9 games next year.

Don’t feel bad for that loser.

Most losers aren’t generationally wealthy.

He won in life even if he lost at football.

Maybe I am just not concerned about it. Not wasting my time on it. (other than a few minutes of posts)
And not defending Dak by any of this either. I prefer they move on.

Always exciting to have a new young QB with potential for hope something in a better direction when it has been nothing for a long time, especially in the playoffs.
But I am not going to constantly bash him either.

I mean...it's not a losing sleep situation. Just kind of like, damn, really? Nobody? Crickets? Yikes.

Welcome to the off season after a huge playoff loss at home.

Wouldn't you want to run away from this as fast and as far as you could?

That's cool man.

Yeah, just feel like if he was actually this great leader we always hear about, that he would have some followers that would be sticking up for him

Enough of this 4th round pick.

Being the quarterback for the Dallas Cowboys is now the worst thing for his psyche.

It’s beyond repairable.

It's a reach to think that the organization has turned it's back on Dak. You don't know what is talked about internally. If you're expecting this mass of players to come out publicly and start throwing other players under the bus, you're going to be disappointed. There's not a player on this team that played well enough in the game to blame any other player.

I'm not making excuses for Dak, he did not play well in the playoff game. You know what? The entire team did not play well in the playoff game. You can go down the list of the entire team, Dak included, and find blame for that loss to the Packers. Did Dak choke? yep. Did the coaches choke? yep. Did the rest of the team choke? Yep

This notion that Dak is somehow on this isolated island within the organization is a total reach. Truth is, the guy was playing at an MVP level going into the playoffs.

When there is nothing productive to say, say nothing.

 

[rnr_honeybadger]

Leaders don't get called the B-word by teammates. You ever see anything like that with Mahomes or Brady? The claim that Dak is a leader is a purely PR fabricated bs.
