Troy Aikman talks about Dak Prescott

[Qcard]

lol...no. It's really about what Troy said about Dak. But since you brought up Romo, why did Troy say what he said and not include Romo with the praise he just gave Dak?

This is why the Tony Romo Superbowl Era (remember Romo wins a Superbowl with every team Prescott lost with in the Playoffs) myth promoters feel snubbed

Prescott got THE CALL!!

 

[noshame]

Hey! I'd like to win one too!
Put me in coach!

He also said this:

It's funny, you can get over the win pretty quick and get ready for the next opponent. When you lose, it just eats at you.... What could we have done? What should I have done? All those things. Just part of playing professional sports and sports in general.

And this:

I would have loved to have had the start that Tom Brady did, won a couple of Super Bowls early, but I wasn't good enough at the time. I have to get better. You start to understand that all the talk and noise really don't matter. Every quarterback goes through the same thing. You have to keep getting better; your team will keep getting betterand you'll have a chance.

Exactly. Romo got BETTER as his career went on, Dak is CLEARLY getting worse.

 

[TheSport78]

Talk that Talk Troy!!

Dak really crushed it against the 0-6 Niners.

Romo was so good as his career went on, he couldn't get his starting job back mid-season to a rookie which also led to Romo's retirement that same year.

You're right...... it was all Dak and had nothing to do with a broken back.

 

[PA Cowboy Fan]

I lost confidence in Romo early on. And while it's true I think he matured and became a better QB in his later years his body was breaking down. He wasted a lot of years. With Dak I just feel he's getting worse. I hope I'm wrong but two straight deer in the headlight games with the 49ers isn't making me feel better. And his promises to fix the interceptions is falling flat too. Both QBs are great guys but I'm afraid Dak is going to end up the same as Romo. The biggest culprit is Jerry. He lucked into these 2 qbs without much effort.

This^. Yet here we are at the zone still fighting over 2 qbs failed by same owner

You mean when Romo broke down over time?

The greatest ability is availability.

 

[Kwyn]

Dak cares so much that he wanted 40 million a year and hurt the talent pool of the team. Dak cares so much that he keeps making the same rookie mistakes in the playoffs.

If his next contract has him accepting a pay cut to help the team, then I'll say he actually cares and isn't just looking for more payday.

What an awful take.

What QB, other than a a guy on his fifth contract, married to a billionaire, takes a pay cut?

 

[Hadenough]

Dak always says the right things but his mouth writes checks his arse can't cash.
Dak is great when he is leading and able to bully a bad team but when resistance and pressure put him in a fight he mentally folds.

Absolutely not true. We all know wins/losses are a team game, but let's attribute such wins/losses against Dak.
Dak actually has the 8th best winning record against .500+ teams vs his QB peers career records.

To get to the Super Bowl you need to win at least two playoff games in a row. He hasn't been able to do that. I like his attitude though.

 

[CouchCoach]

Aikman has been a Prescott cheerleader ever since he admitted he was wrong about a player improving his accuracy. Wonder how he feels about accuracy regression?

 

[CowboyRoy]

Same guy that said Parsons would be the next Jaylon Smith….

Yep I remember that.

I predict he'd say its just one year. If he does it again then yeah those comments will be very interesting from Aikman. Might change his tune to "I Told You So".

 

[phildadon86]

Should’ve won it on his rookie deal.

Like Brad Kaaya or Beathard?

We get it. You’d rather draft a QB every 5 years praying we hit on a mahomes. Because they come around so often. Your opinions regarding prospects and football in general are laughable. Remember when parsons was a bad pick? Just sit in the corner already.

You’re such a weirdo and don’t understand context so until you do you should probably shut your mouth.

 

[phildadon86]

Yep I remember that.

And Cj Beathard, and Brad Kaaya would be better pros than Patrick Mahomes.

 

[phildadon86]

I’m not the one who needs to shut my mouth. Your comments on here are laughable. And you back them up by saying “oh but other teams didn’t do it so I’m right” you’re not right. They are also not right.
