Dak has 5 ints and 5 lost fumbles this season total of 10 TOs Wentz has 9 TOs 6 int and 3 lost fumbles .

Goff also has 6 Ints with 4 lost fumbles #1 picks who would have thought Dak would be right there with them
Lets go to some Elite big money guys Rodgers has 5 lost fumbles , Wilson has 5 Ints and 5 lost fumbles Cousins has 7 Ints and 5 lost fumbles , Ryan has 5 INts and 5 lost fumbles, Luck has 11 Ints and 3 lost fumbles

The GOAT TOM BRADY has 7 ints and 4 lost fumbles How could that be more TOs than Dak??

Best yet Romo had 32 fumbles in his 1st 3 yrs and Dak only has 24.

Yes Dak absolutely has to clean this fumbling up but he is not turning the ball over by fumble or INT anymore than the top draft picks of his class or the most elite QBs in the league so the exaggerations can stop now

What's being put to bed exactly? And just because a fumble isn't lost doesn't mean it has not destroyed a drive. If Dak holds the ball way to long, gets sacked and fumbles and we recover, well we are now screwed. It's now 2nd and 18 and we will get a 4 yard check down on 2nd and a dump off to Elliot on 3rd for 3 yards and we are punting.

Dak supporters tend to only hold fumbles against him if the other team recovers. Either way it kills the possession.

But really a 1/3 are not even forced
The 2 dribbles in the lions game that came right back to him
A pure drop vrs saints, maybe a pump fake
A few more....just dropped, not forced by a def player

Now....to compare to others, lots of game tape to see how many of Goff, wentz etc are just simple drops

Big diff in it between the 2
Maybe dak just has small hands :)

I blame some of his fumbles on play calling. From inside the 10 Dallas has several ways to score. Zeke running it or a swing pass to Zeke. Maybe a quick screen to a WR. And finally, Dak running it in. But Dak throwing it into the endzone is not one of them. That should be pretty clear to everyone right now. They should be running plays that have a chance to work.

Scheme was great on the missed TD to Noah Brown couple of games ago , Like the
Gallup TD, Dak needs to get some air under a ball at times to let reveiver run under it

As long as he continues to have pocket unawareness and poor ball protection, he will catch the criticism. He also has as many recovered fumbles but those are rarely plus plays.

And Blackrain, gimme any one of those QB;s you mentioned over Prescott. They make plays to overcome mistakes and he has to rely on the defense.

Fumbles are a direct correlation to Oline pressure. And all those QB's you mentioned have better Olines than the one Dak has been playing behind.

The Trolls have an agenda so its no sense talking to them about it.

Ill get you some tissues when our franchise stud gets a new contract extension. Should be between 5-7 years.

Good points but you’ll never get through to people.

Just look how long it took for some to accept Romo around here.
When did that happen? On the old DC.com site, that never happened and some of the Daksters are former Romorooters. I just wish this site had been around when we had the Morton-Staubach rotations and Danny White. But not when Dandy was around or he would have retired even earlier.

well, to be fair, they all have dynamic offenses that try to win so int's will come with taking chances; Dallas plays vanilla on offense for the most part and tries not to lose

This could be another myth.
Fans mostly look at their own team. Then compare to what they are not aware of.

Are these teams really all that different. It may seem so, but are they really. Just because a few teams try it now and then, does not mean they do it all the time, nor as often as we think.
Could Garrett and company be more aggressive, yes. But it is not that they do not have trust in their QB.
