No one's hiding. He's way way overpaid for his talent.

They need to look to the future, and don't blow that horn before the playoffs, Dak still hasn't done squat in post season. Let's see him deliver first, because it hasn't happened yet.


Name one quarterback with max dollars that's earning their contracts other than Brady, Mahomes, Rodgers and Josh Allen.....

Dak is also not the first to not have major playoff success in his first 6 full seasons either.

Yep. You have to run and pass....to play football.

While people try to stop you from run and pass.

And you have to do it anyway.
If you can't do both, you will lose in the playoffs. And yes, a short passing game(See Tom Brady) can function as the run game.

Brady isn't getting max dollars, and it's highly questionable whether Rodgers is earning his.

I mean, I love how Rush understands the game and how to play it, but he's so limited that even being a backup is highly questionable. How can anyone not see the lollipops he throws?

Rush has been great no doubt.

When can we put the Amari Cooper thing to bed?

It was put to bed long ago. Getting rid of Cooper was 100% the right move. Not worth the price that we save over the next 3 years. Lamb with an opportunity to be the featured guy has looked amazing. 11-4 and the #1 scoring offense in football.

So your happy with Daks performance. Merry Christmas!
Dak was totally choking. Had it not been for one lucky throw after two Dak sacks to leave the team 3rd and 30 we would all be miserable today. Defense gets a fumble inside of two minutes and just like in the Jags game Dak can't put the game away. Defense had to snuff out a drive that got to the 20 yard line. Cooper Rush isn't the answer but neither is Dak. He just makes it more exciting until he throws up a dud like the 49ers game last year.


So when Dak complete passes its luck.... but when other quarterbacks complete passes, it's skill and they do what they're paid to do. Yeah ok bruh....

Dak bailed out the defense against the Eagles because they were getting gashed. So we're any other quarterbacks completing "lucky" passes anywhere else around the league yesterday??

Do you mean help like 4 turnovers from the defense?

That said, you were 100% correct, Dak is better than Rush. I don't know why anyone would feel like that's even worth posting. Not exactly clearing a high bar there. I think Rush just shook Dak's fan club to the core by going 4-1 and showing everyone we can win without Dak.


Well I'm a fan of the Cowboys and Dak happens to be one of the players. When Rush was balling out, I was in full support of what he was doing and also stated that he should be the starter for the rest of the season especially if he was able to beat the Eagles.

But he didn't.... that 100 passing yards per game don't cut it when they start collecting film on you.

Same here. I don't think Rush is better than Dak, but again, Rush sets the bar low. Dak played great yesterday for the most part, but people are kidding themselves if they think we win that game or score 40 points without the 4 turnovers from the defense.

Dak has led us to 40 point games before without 4 turnovers.... so it's not like he needed that many to get us to 40.
