This loss is 100% on Dak

[DalFan75]

Only in Bizzarro Zoner world can a defense give up 31 pts and 200+ yds rushing to a mediocre team averaging 17 pts a game, and somehow create thread after thread and have post after post blaming the teams offensive coordinator and QB for a loss.

U mean the QB that was putrid in the 4th?

I didn't see the QB blow any coverages or get stampeded by the other teams RB and OL.

Wake me up hen you find that footage for us.

 

[5Stars]

You love Dak.

I understand that. You’ve made it clear.

The run defense sucks. It really does. And Bland and Kelvin didn’t help matters on the back end. The shine is coming off Quinn and this defense.

Quickly.

And that stinks.

And as that is starting to unfold your team needs the quarterback to not gift the Packers - or any team for that matter - 14 points. He also needs to convert critical 3rd and 4th downs when called upon. You saw the conversion rate for him this year. It’s pathetic. It’s the worst since 2011 and that dubious distinction belonged to Tebow. Not a good look for The 40 million dollar man.

The Cowboys need a run stopper, and a QB that is sitting in the waiting.

Your post doesn't make sense.

Dak was terrible in the 4th.

Dak was terrible in the 4th.

It doesn't make sense because you apparently cant understand basic football.

It was 28-14 dude. We had a lead. The defense blew the lead. The offense didn't turn the ball over or give them short fields. The defense gave up back to back TD drives of 9 plays 76 yds and 10 plays 89 yards.

28 points was good enough that had that happened the first 9 games to GB, they'd have been 0-9.

The defense was FAR worse in the 4th qtr than the QB.

This must be Daks family, only way you defend him when it’s obvious to everyone. He is taking the money that should spent on defense if you want your defense to be stout. Stout defenses cost money which dak and offense are paid to score 40pts a game. We currently spend #2 in league on offense vs #29 in league in defense. You want a top 10 defense then don’t have a mediocre QB taking up so much of the cap. I don’t care if you pay Dak 60/yr, don’t expect a great team around him and make excuses when he doesn’t deliver.

Did he play by himself? I mean, it's easy to look at the box score and suggest he was awful, but we were up 14 points. So, maybe it wasn't just the QB.

I'm not his family and honestly don't believe he's anything more than an average to above average starter.

But the offense isnt the reason we lost to Green Bay.

Green Bay hasnt played the 85 Bears defense every week so far this season, they average a paltry 17 pts a game. Until we showed up.

 

[CowboyRoy]

And you're a next level troll who toss out baseless statements and run like a coward when called out to back up your claim.

With that said, players/former players and coaches/former coaches can trash anybody they want.

There were 3 td passes that were 100% on dak.

His job is to move the ball. He didn't do it in the 4th.

I have never said that it was just one thing that made us lose this game.

 

[Zekeats]

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

What did he do with 2:30 left and all his timeouts? 3 plays, 3 yards. GOAT

It's a lot of players jobs to move the ball. Look, Prescott didn't play great, but even the INTs are debatable, couple w/ penalties when things were rolling.
I have ZERO issue using the evidence available to be critical of Dak, but we have to realistic. That's football. All the pieces need to work. 14 point lead would have been celebrated had it been Cooper or some other QB.

 

[JoeKing]

Blaming Dak "100%" shows a lack of understanding of the intricacy of this game. CeeDee is not running his routes right all the time.

I DO NOT LOVE dak, hate Dak being criticized for team issues., growing past old..

so yes, ill be defensive, maybe its time for the Cowboys to be as well.

expecting Dak to score 8-10 more points then you expected Rush to do and give our D a 21 point lead they nearly blew against the bears , we saw it, then a 14-point lead late in the 4th , i mean this had less to do with offense. all the way back to philly they didn't bow their backs and support Rush when struggling we got down 20-0 part was the defense look that where it began, let be clear Dak is not perfect he started out slow and rusty that first 2 drives , those ints not all on him but he more than made up for it with 14 point lead and 28 points, in 2022 is above the league average and should win games with a defense bragging about being the next doomsday defense..

195-0 that's the last 20 years when cowboys defense was given a 14 point lead now its 195-1, did i miss something? did dak or this offense throw ints or fumble or give GB the game LIKE Allen and the Bills in the 4th and OT?,

Nope was purely our defense being carved up by team looking to get healthy. they watched film of the eagles & bears they see our team giving up 200 yards game and never letting off the run game even down 14-21 points and its working. that unprecedented, teams simply do not run the ball that much with being down that much. the blueprint is out on the D, last year was the offense.

Im saying right now Dak and this offense is doing more than rush led offense were and now here come the penalty's and bad defense. yet somehow its being placed on Dak and the offense.

tired of it, happened to Romo and Dak early in his career, fans EXPECTING our offense to score 32 PPG again?? we back to 2020? even 2019 ?making Dak win a shootout?

i mean look at OT , Dak drove our team down easily, put them into a huge chance to win and how many plays are called back? missed call ruined the drive yet DAK CANT MOVE THE BALL OR SCORE Narrative? really?? i saw them have to move 10 yards for a first 3 times and then a penalty and now its 1st and 20.... so now its ok to blame the qb for needing 20 yards for first vs 10?? this happend ton last year in the raiders game, 9er game , constantly behind the chains, its so bad its unreal how many drives Prescott had to overcome penalties....yets its him he cant move the ball LMAO "HE" They moved the ball until penalties and missed calls torpedoed the drives. some blindness or selective memory are oh Prescott didn't move the ball, its his fault.

No, how about we place the blame on what caused to loss, directly

Bad defensne and the refs.

sure, want to go deeper and simply break down the entire game and say Dak and the offense started slow and they couldn't been better , sure yes very true but back to why we lost,

top reason
DEFENSE 50% of the blame!
Penalties 25% refs called and uncalled or just poor decisions, like late hit from Wilson
15%Questionable play calls not sticking the run more, MOORE!
5% dak and a slow start, 2 INTs,

Blaming THE OFFENSE AT ALL "100%" shows a lack of understanding of the intricacy of this game. CeeDee is not running his routes right all the time.

It's more about why we wanted to do nothing but throw 30 yard passes w/ a 14 pt lead in the 4th. That needs to be fixed, period. Doesn't matter who's at fault.

Oh I agree

 

[Zman5]

This thread reminds me of all the time Romo was blamed for a loss. He would get us a lead at the end of the game only to have the defense fold like a cheap lawn chair and lose the game. Yet all the Romo bashers would blame him for the loss because he threw an early game INT. Things never change.

Yep, he took heavy fire for years.
