Time to put it to bed

....people say he’s a poor man’s Alex Smith.

You know this board went from comparing him to Tom Brady to “Well yeah, he sucks, but this QB is worse...”

Just admit you folks were wrong. Have some dang dignity.

I don't have to admit anything, because I am not part of either one of those groups.
So do not include me in the "you folks" crowd.

Prescott did not take Romo's job. Romo was injured. Kellen Moore was injured. Prescott has started ever since. If anything, it is more accurate saying Jerry Jones and Jason Garrett took Romo's job.

Jerry Jones thought the best shot the Cowboys had to win was with dak, not Romo.

So far he's been proven right. 2nd most wins since 2016 only behind the Patriots.

Then what are you arguing? Maybe you should be countering the very people pretending Dak is more than what he is?

Because me, who you are attempting to counter, what right for over 2 years now.

Criticize the folks who flip-flopped from calling him the next GOAT to trying to make excuses why him sucking isn’t so bad because another QB is worse.

If you have to tear down other QBs to prop up another, the QB you are supporting probably sucks.

I have never argued otherwise. Hopefully, Jones' decision-making in this case is more accurate in the long run than his overall track record in the past three decades.

So far he's been proven right. 2nd most wins since 2016 only behind the Patriots.

Prescott has done well. Hopefully, he will continue to do well or better since it is my opinion that Jones will make Prescott the franchise's long-term solution at the position. Of course, it should always be noted in any football discussion (but not often enough) that a player's individual success is also predicated upon the efforts of the rest of his teammates and/or coaching.

I did not realize there was an argument, but you always try to turn things into one.
I am not countering anything. I made a statement, and you want to twist it.

That made a whop...

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

Elite and Dak have no buisness in the same sentence...

Dallas passing game is #25 man........come on man

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

Dak is going to have to be twice as good, to get half the respect. Im sure he knows that.

That’s usually how it is for guys like Dak..... gotta work twice as hard to get 10 percent of respect they deserve.

What is it since they got a actual receiver? Quit being dumb.

INTs are going to happen to all QBs, especially those in offenses that like to take risks. I don’t believe that characterization barely describes the Dallas advance, however. Nonetheless, my point is that interceptions are going to happen, so I tend a discount that stat line just a little bit.

What does concern me are the fumbles. The number you cited are the number of lost phone bills, not tony Van Baale‘s. How many times this season have we seen Prescott Dumbo in the ball bounce right back to him Or to a teammate? There is no disputing that he hast to take better care of the ball when it’s in his possession.

 

[BLEU3ASY]

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

That spin was quick!!! wow..

 

[ESisback]

Dak is going to have to be twice as good, to get half the respect. Im sure he knows that.

Why, because he’s the Dallas QB, or is there some other reason?

 

[ESisback]

At least you have a sense of humor because you are going to be laughing or crying for a long time. Dak isnt going anywhere and getting better all the time. I have no doubts the line will be fixed and we will get a TE in here this offseason. Then it will be back to MVP status for our stud Dak.

I want a QB guru, a new OC, a TE, and a FA vet QB for competition/depth.

 

[Mobinvans]

Because our passing game is almost last....#25 to be exact

Did you NOT see and hear Ezee's comment that Dallas plays smash mouth football? They hit hard and play hard.

Jesus.....when will simple minded people stop jumping on the wrong train? Bunch of sheep on this board......

That's as generic as it gets.

What did you expect?

Again.....Smash. Mouth. Football.

wait, you can't just look at raw numbers like that and come to some silly conclusion.....

Pass attempts/game

Brady - 36.5
Rodgers - 37.5
Goff - 34.6
Wentz - 36.7
Dak - 30.3


that means for averaging out over 11 games, he has thrown 50-60 less passes during the season...... the more passes you throw, the more chances to throw and Int. perhaps a better indicator would be interception percentage per pass attempt......

so its really silly and dumb to compare Dak to Brady, Wentz, Goff, Rodgers when they are in the top 10 in the league in passing yards per game, and Dak is 31st.......

This Dak comparison to some of these HOF QBs is now beyond stupidity....no one in their right mind would Say Dak is HOF material at this point in his career based on his stats and output...seriously guys you are losing your minds

 

[Seven]

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.

Dumbest, most der-de-der post of the day.

Of course a fumble kills a possession, Lombardi.

Another "Thread right over the head" post.......

He just needs to quit holding the ball too long.
Its that simple.
Every qb should look to improve their game

 

[cern]

Fumbles and picks are f-bomb moments. As long as we win with dak at the helm, those things don't matter that much.
