When your playing a team like the Niners D you need all your horses. With Zeke only there was no run game. It was pretty much over.

Dak didnt play well either buddy. But zeke just sucks. Even in the Bucs game where we blew them out he only had like 30 yards and 2 ypc. Might as well stick a fork in him.

That was the game where Dak had over 300 yards and 5 TD's. Remember?
So Dak thrives on weaker defenses....ok....he still needs to rise above those better defenses...that is what elite QB's do....
Zeke had bad games, Dak played well in one but not the other....therefore it falls back on Dak, as Zeke was not making a difference.

Why didnt Zeke thrive against a weaker defense in a blowout? LOL

Isnt that the way its supposed to work? Weaker defense you should do better? But not Zeke. He sucks against most defenses.

Zeke is basically useless completely. He leaves his QB out to dry with no run game and 3rd and long. He sucks.

Which is why Dak is making 40 million and still has a job and your hero cant find one. LOL

And Pollard made the pro bowl and averaged 5.8 ypc behind the same line with the same QB. :lmao::lmao::lmao2::lmao2:

And SF RB ran out of bounds to give Dak another opportunity to choke, though if he stayed in bounds the game would have been over.. forget about the fact the defense held SF into FGs, despite Dak tossing INTs in easy scoring position
Again I am not absolving Dak of blame here, I have said multiple times on this forum he was bad in that game. My point is several other Cowboys played poorly as well and missed chances to make plays in crucial moments. But since they were non-quarterbacks nobody seems to care.

At some point we might just have to admit the 49ers were a better team and were better prepared that night instead of just trying to find reasons the Cowboys or Dak or whoever "choked". Sometimes as Dallas fans we lose sight of the fact that this team is not perfect in any way. Every loss isn't because of Dak Prescott; even though we can see him throw a pick and immediately and conveniently blame him and think they'd have multiple Super Bowls by now if they had a different QB.

Dak is overpaid, so to you his $40 million justifies him sucking against SF because Zeke had a bad game and a high cap hit.
Zeke did not fumble as Dak threw 2 very costly picks. Moore and his stupid play calling running Zeke into stacked boxes was partly why he had a bad game.
Pollard will prove to be overpaid as well. He is not worth $10 million. Especially when he gets injured again.

Zeke is gone, but yet you still post about him to try to build up Dak. Time to look forward. I am interested in what Dak does without Moore, an with MM, and a new RB if they draft one.
I do not dwell on the past. Mention it yes at times, but I do not obsess about it.

However you try to justify Dak using the opposite reasoning against Zeke.
We been over this before, I am have been proven correct time and time again.

You're the general manager of this team, Dak has been here for several seasons. Knowing this and all the resources you've given him, what's the time frame that he has to go deep into the playoffs or win a championship??

Do you feel that the cowboys have a time frame on Dak being that he's been here this long. Please keep this appropriate!!!! Give your thoughts please....
We will never win meaningful games with him at QB,look at the last 2 years against the 9ers,dude chokes when the lights are brightest and as fans, there's not a damn thing we can do about it.

As for that tweet, why should Dallas have to pay Dak "before the market rises"? I'm sorry but if Dak can't deliver the goods this year then it's time to move on, a few seasons of rebuilding be darned. Just because your neighbor bought a $50K electric vehicle does not mean you have to as well, especially seeing as how they constantly need recharging after only a short distance and the cost to replace the battery is more than the car will be worth.
I would have so much more fun as a fan with a new cheaper quarterback who isn’t regressing.

The pressure has made this team tight and unfun. They’re gonna be defiant and defensive to the press this year too. Gonna start scapegoating each other. Also lamb wants to get paid so he won’t be thrilled to have his quarterback blame him for interceptions

So can CB play and G play and LT play. Wins are a team stat not a QB stat for that reason. The people who make them into a QB stat are those who can’t dissect football very well so they wanna make it easy.
true and each game is different, and you also have to account for how well the other team played.

The qb is different in that his position is pivotal to the offense doing good or bad, more so than other players.

And the camera focuses on him, we see way more of the qb than the other players, so he gets more blame or credit than the other players.

The fact remains that the FO did a lot better on the Dak deal than most of us thought they did. The contact as it stands is a bargain. Had they extended Dak a year prior to the franchise year he would have only signed for 3 years and he would probably already be making above 40 million per year.

As it stands they have more options. Another year at an average of 40m and another year to evaluate the team and whether they want to actually re up Dak.
Paying someone multiple times their worth is never a bargain :huh:

This is Aikman talking about Dak Prescott and the offense

Look, they were on the top of the list on a lot of numbers. You can say, 'this, this.' But when you're on the top of the list on third down conversions and total yards and points scored...those are 3 big statistics where you want to be on the top of the list. And they were. To me it's going to be very interesting.

You could be right but again the only real move they could make is the one they did....change who is calling the plays and see if you can get this team over the hump, if it doesnt work you are in the same position to move on from Dak you would've been if you did it now. So to me they are doing what they can about it..now what they do next depending on the outcome will be the huge question.

If I’m a GM, I’m not putting a timetable on a QB going deep in the playoffs or winning a championship or I’ll be going through a bevy of QBs and HCs. First of all it should be up to the HC not the GM when you move on from a QB. If you’re winning games and making it to the playoffs consistently you stick with your QB until someone comes along that’s better. It’s very difficult finding a QB that can win games consistently during the regular season much less in the playoffs. Just look around the league.

We could be stuck with a lot worse and if it was up to a lot of fans here we would be.
Thats the facts...some here would burn the house down for years so they could boast about Dak's departure on this site....

Some fans don’t know what misery is until they go through what the Cowboys went through for five years in the early 2000s. Those who were around back then seem to forget just how bad our QB situation was.

I don't trust him. But I will give him credit when he plays well.

I will trust him if he ever wins the big prize. HUGE difference.
....then this is the same criteria TRomo had. Oops my bad for mentioning TRomo.

People say Dak is inconsistent. I say, no, Dak is consistently bad in games that really matter. When the season is on the line you can rest assured that Dak Prescott will fail to live up to the hype.
What about Josh Allen?

I am hoping Jerry catches lightening in a Bottle this year. A lot of options out there. I hope he steps in it and selects the superstar out of the bunch

Yep, you know it's DAKCHOKA time.
He starts sweating profusely and licking his hands before he takes the snap.
Then he gets that deer in the headlight look while his footwork is a total mess back there and BOOM .....interception and we're lucky its not a pick6 as the LB or CB drops it.
