This loss is 100% on Dak

[G2]

If only Dak didn't play and Cooper did. Fans would rather not be competitive so that a loss tenders to their feelings.

 

[G2]

You lost me at Diggs. Roger's didn't even throw his way and for good reason.

I agree. I noticed he got penalized and thought "When's the last time that happened?"

 

[blueblood70]

The defense should not get a pass.

60% defense

nope like 45% of the blame is on defense, cant stop the run, can't hold 14 point lead late, also bad penalties, and couldn't cover Watson.

 

[starfan1]

Blaming the receivers for those int's is like blaming the rain for soaking the interior of the car because the windows were left open.

Presumably Dak can see and can make the decision not to throw into that situation. Especially since in both cases the defenders saw it coming a mile away.

I'm no expert but in over 50 years of watching football I can't remember a QB being given the passes Dak is given week after week after week.

you must have selective memory. Previous QB was the same in the excuse section. They are literally the same QB that has been failed by same owner

 

[TheSport78]

the title of this thread, the Op, and anyone who agrees with that sentiment. all wrong for sure..100% really??? even 25% is a stretch.

1-45% on the defense can't hold a 14-point lead or stop the run.
2-refs 20% cant call such an uneven game
3-25% on dak picks were not all his fault weren't short field type but hey, he wasn't perfect.
4-5% on coaching decisions etc.
5.- 5% WR running poor routes

A loss is never 100% on one player, but you get what the OP was going towards. You decided to take him literally that it was 100% his fault we lost, so don’t fault me for picking up on it. Dakota was by far the MAIN reason we lost yesterday. Does that make you feel better?

 

[Surfguy]

Dak lacks finesse. Therefore, his play comes across as mechanical and disjointed. He still hasn't put it all together to become a complete QB. He has the workings to do it but you can see it's just not at the level we need it to be.

In summary, work on that finesse except you can't because it's one of the intangibles so oh well.

Finesse, baby!

 

[GuitarBytes]

You lost me at Diggs. Roger's didn't even throw his way and for good reason.

ok, if I was wrong with Diggs, I already saw the numbers and it's going well, but he has no help, it's as if he was just a cornerback on the team and on one side because the other simply has no CB

 

[Cmac]

Didn't know Dak played 22 spots on the team. He needs to step up his rush defense.

....and the league allow him to wear the OC headset in his helmet from now on. Since 100% blame....might as well do it all.

 

[MaineBoy]

If you want to see dimes all day you must be playing Madden lol.

It’s not his rare dimes that are the issue I think. It’s his more numerous and consistent poor throws.

 

[Slick]

LOL. The Defense did almost NOTHING the entire game and it's all Dak's fault as usual... simpleton view but remember.. Dak has a mansion, a backyard football field and hot girls throwing themselves at him nightly. You DO NOT.... hahha

Who cares what he’s got?

You must have not been around here during the Romo years. That's not true at all.

Remember Romo being blamed for losing the shootout with Denver? The offense put up 48 points, the defense gave up 51 points, yet Romo was blamed for the loss because of the interception he threw to Escobar who did the same thing people are blaming Lamb for, two games in a row now. Not one time did I hear anyone blame anyone but Romo for that loss. The team also was penalized for over 80 yards.

There are many examples but that one perfectly illustrates the difference in the way fans treated Romo vs Dak.

Here's another... Remember the infamous "win or go home" game against the Washco's in 2012? Romo was crucified for that game. I never heard it mentioned one time that the defense gave up 274 rushing yards and 4 rushing TD's.

If those games played out exactly the same but with Dak at QB it would have been the defense's fault, the receivers fault, the team's fault for the penalties.... anybody and everybody's fault but Dak's.

 

[lopey]

You didn't answer the question. Josh Allen hasn't "Risen to the occasion" on 3 separate occasions this season. (I would also take Allen over Dak) but that isn't the argument.

This says it 100%
He is still playing his rookie deal this year, that deal really doesn't come into effect until next season but if you want to go tit for tat them at least Allen has gotten the Bill to the AFC championship game 2 years in a row to earn that deal..what did your hero do to earn his?

 

[xwalker]

He simply made too many mistakes and didn't make any throws when it counted the most.

As a leader and QB of your team, this was a game he had to play excellent or do whatever was needed to win.

He did none of that today.

Mediocre QB play.

Wrong.

28-14 became 31-28

Multiple ex-NFL players have said Schultz and CeeDee were at fault on the INTs.
- Greg Olson drew it out on the screen...

I am not a Dak supporter hell some call me a Dak hater, that was a team loss. From MM not going for a FG in OT, to some questionable patterns run by WR and TE that led to TO, to a conservative defensive gameplan. Everyone but the RBs yesterday contributed a little bit to the loss.

Absolutely agree

 

[DandyDon52]

well dak isnt only one to blame, but that last short pass, he threw that way over pollards head !
pollard was at the 32 , which was needed for 1st down.
If dak throws that on tonys #, it would be a 1st, and then who knows?

Also I think it was kinda stupid to go for it, I would have tried the fg.

Both teams turned it over in redzone so that evens out.
those last holding penalty was suspect lol, and so was the no call pi .

dallas brought rodgers and gb back to life and helped them find a new star wr !! lol

Dak 2-2 and rush is 4-1 ! sure glad we are playing the right QB !!!!!!!!

 

[Silverz1972]

Don’t be afraid to run the ball. Especially when game is on the line. That includes dak running.

I didn’t blame Romo for that Denver game; he went toe to toe with Peyton Manning; our defense was trash that year and the team that had the ball last in that game was going to win, and that’s exactly what happened.

 

[BigD_95]

He gave the defense a 14 point lead going into the 4th quarter! In case you Dak hate makes you blind!

Dak was also the reason for a 17 point swing in the 1st half. If he doesn’t throw those 2 picks it’s a completely different game

 

[blueblood70]

well dak isnt only one to blame, but that last short pass, he threw that way over pollards head !
helped them find a new star wr !! lol

Watson has been on the fringe all years hes been wide open and has case of the drops much like Chase did last year, chase came around and so did Watson especially when you loose Lewis and brown and have to play Bland and KJ..

we didn't help them find anything , he just finally put it together..
rush was 4-1 with a Defense giving up under 17 PPG..wheres that defense for Dak?

One of those 4 wins we could have beat the ram with a full game of no QB and wildcat formation, that how good that defense WAS...10-16 106 2 fumbles is not something Rush should be proud of, eagles game he was terrible.. Washington game 2 INTS called back, got the refs on Rushes side as well..Dak can't buy a mugging PI call, on lamb that most likely sets us up for GW drive..

Kind of obvious whats been happening for 2 weeks now..defsne on downward trend..untimely Penalty's and refs again.

19 dak loss horrible team game bad play calls new OL pieces no Gallup...
rushes 4 wins that d,
17
16
10
10

26- rush lost 3rd most points allowed

6 dak win -scored 25
29 dak win 2nd most points allowed all season but scored 49
31 oh the loss most points allowed all season-scored 28

so the most rush scored in all 5 games he started was 25..seemd to be his limit. dak scores 49, 28, and 25..

again, where that defense? I say dak easily and most likely runs away from many of those games rush could barely get to 20 in..Key is winning but IMO Dak wins by far more points in those contests and give the defense a chance to rest more.

that it i figured it out Rush was so limited games were so close it wore the defense out,
