Teams get wins not qbs. Zeke has a better record than dak if that’s the case.
Teams, coaches and QBs all get wins and loses. Zeke hasn't played as many games as Dak. You are not making sense now, so it no longer makes sense for me to be arguing a point with you.

A smart person( which you’re not) knows Zeke has a better win percentage, so it does make sense.

I count every game Zeke was suspended last season as a loss for him. If you count them as wins or don't count them at all is your problem.

We don't have a chance to win with Dak at QB. Our other two QBs probably can't do any better but they should be given a chance.

Okay let's look at other quarterbacks that teams thought so highly of that they gave them huge contracts, and their team's record:

Kirk Cousins - 7-7
Case Keenum - 6-8
Matthew Stafford - 5-9
Cam Newton - 6-7

Cowboys have Dak for another 2 years, if they want to keep him, benching him for Rush or White or some other "top" free agent doesn't guarantee success.

Just be careful what you wish for...

Don't take what I said 3 months ago and treat it as if I said it today.

They don’t count at all. The games he plays count and his win % is higher than saks is. He’s the focal point of the offense after all. He’s the best player. He’s the one team try to take away every week. No one goes into a game saying we’ll take him away and force you to win it if you’re good.

Flacco would win as much or more than sak with this team. He’s not great, but he has a top 4 arm , throws a accurate deep ball and plays better in the playoffs than regular season. I’d bring him in for a year or two.

He's a career 61.7% passer. Career rating of 84.1. People around here insist Dak's career of 66.0% and a 95 rating isn't good enough, so why go with a lesser percentage and rating passer?

Plays better in the playoffs? How's he going to get there with those stats? He's lived off of a top-5 defense for years, Dak can do just as well if he just improves some, doesn't need to improve a huge amount.

Flacco's nearly 34 years old, even in today's NFL that's old, if he doesn't make the starting job and get acclimated in a couple of years, he'll be too old for any extended run with the team.

Flacco's overrated and too old....

It’s foolish to just look at numbers. You can dump it off 15 tines and have a high %. No ones saying Flacco is elite, but he has skills dak doesn’t. He has a top 3 arm and throws a great deep ball. He reads defenses better than dak. He’s more accurate. I’d bring him in.

The only receiver he had after the Super Bowl was a old Steve Smith. They had one if the best deep throwers in the game and didn’t get him a deep threat for 5 years. Imagine if Mahomes only had l Fitzgerald and Crabtree for 5 years.

Who has a better line Dallas or Balt? Who has a better running game?

this isn't an impulse reaction, his excuses are gone and he looks even worse than he did when all the "problems" for him were here.

Need to see what we have, may have to give the new guy 2+ years to judge if he's a franchise guy or not.

Bench him? In favor of whom? Dallas has a chance to make post season they are not nor would anyone in their right mind would bench Dak at this stage of the season.

Some want to trade for Carr to come here, when Gruden the "QB guru" signed Nathan Peterman of all QBs, as potential competition to Carr.....so yeah.
