Like most all NFL players.Even more-so...QBs.
Consistent elevated level of play is all I wanna see or hear about with Dak
That will ultimately decide his legacy...

I hate losing no matter what. But you were making it sound like Dak hasn't played well in the playoffs (or is the reason Dallas has not gone deep in the playoffs), when that's not the case at all.
He's not played well enough to advance this team outside of the Wild Card game against the Seahawks.

Maybe the 7th year is a charm.

Eli got one ring on a fluke play and two overall and look how many idiots think he belongs in the HOF.
His career was pretty good otherwise but he in no ways shape or form deserves to be in the HOF
Jim Kelly was on the losing team in 4 SBs and many only remember him for that; but he deserved to be in the HOF and is
Dan Marino had little playoff success when it was all said and done but he certainly deserved to be in the HOF
But in this day and age too many idiots think its all about the playoffs
Lets be honest: Peyton Manning was at best average in his playoff games and towards the end was lousy
Does anyone here really think he did not deserve to be in the HOF?

I’ve grown to despise Prescott… Because he is a dumb football player, and seems to either wilt or thrive in pressure situations… If he turns it around and wins in the playoffs, stops doing dumb things, then I will come around and be supportive… I’m not counting on it LOL

Show proof that I have said that I hope Dak fails and I will never post again.

If you don't prove it then you never post again.

Deal?
None of you haters have said it. Y’all don’t have the nads to. But we all know it’s true.

How?
How can you "see" the "hate" in the words a critic types?

I call BS, Jazz. You're seeing what you want to see. My guess is that there are certain people that challenge your opinions in a way that really grinds your gears. You rationalize this to be because they have ulterior motives, i.e. "hate", because that allows to write off their opinion as irrelevant because it is driven by the ulterior motive rather than logic and reason.

Your responses only take the discussion farther into the darkness. I consider you one of the main instigators of the dysfunction. You certainly aren't alone but you're definitely first team.

Very well said (Vtwin) on the bolded/underlined above. Hate is such a both overused and misused term these days. There's a huge gap between objective criticism and actual "hate" in the over-sensitized, WOKE-aholic word we now live in. I highly doubt any real Cowboy fan would root against the team so that Dak would look bad. So, that being said I don't "HATE" the 9ers, Eagles & Steelers - awe crap yes, yes I do.

Ultimately, playoff success will determine how a QB's career will be perceived

That should've been your headline but since there aren't very many Dak bashing threads this week you had to go and make one.

Are you a Romo fan? If so, how do you define his career??

He made a lot of dumb throws for TD”s and moving the team downfield to victory then didn’t he.

It's comical to me that in this supposed great game he played it included a pick 6, a sack fumble and mismanaging the clock at the end.

Like this is him at his finest, apparently. If he can just do that consistently we may win the Super Bowl.

The great game was on the WRs or Moore. WRs were open.

Or just a bad game by Philly's back 7.

Week to week roller coaster of the nfl and fans reactions towards Dak are more up and down than the stock market, but regardless of how Dak plays like this past week, or the week before and his ints and his flashes of greatness and then his mistakes, you can’t judge Dak until he has playoff success, that’s what separates a good qb from a great qb, so we’ve seen what he is capable of, but without playoff success he will never be viewed as a great qb regardless of his numbers and regular season record

QB's dont have success or failure, teams do.

Stafford has to be the best example of that truth.

And NO, playoff success is NOT what separates QB's. Its usually the team that he is surrounded by. But yes, the laymans and know nothings will blame one guy or the QB.

This isn’t a Dak bashing thread, it’s the opposite in fact, he’s unfairly criticized week to week..people one week think he’s the greatest the next week he should be replaced, that’s not fair to him, when in reality the only way Dak should be judged is playoff success, without it he will never he viewed positively by this fan base, which is justified. Troy never even came close to his or Romo’s #’s but he was a first ballot HOFer because he won super bowls..it’s a fair assessment and it’s not a bashing at all, but people went on another Dak rant

This couldn’t be more wrong, to make a few Bradshaw, Aikman, Eli, never have come close to the numbers of romo, Dak etc and first ballot hall of famers, why? They won super bowls..

Might actually have some luck this year. TB is trash, we can beat Philly, we trash the Vikings and GB is not in the mix. If anything SF might hold Dak back along with this poor Defense.
