I think it's come over into this season and now that the Cowboys are struggling a little they are ready to say,"See we told you so." lol
Yep. Its a losers agenda. Nobody can bring be the dead back to life. Time to move on and hope for the best of what the Cowboys have. There is nothing else. Besides, Prescott, like Romo, is a good guy with a big heart. I really hope he turns out to be special...that is what the Cowboys and their fans really need.

Its the ole Romo lovers mostly. Prescott is what the club has now and going forward. Romo is not coming back..ever. Thankfully.;):muttley::muttley::muttley:
It's really not at all about Romo. It's about getting close again and again, only to start over. The thought of dealing with the growing pains of a QB for a few MORE years agitates me. I want it now. I've waited and waited. I've had kids that are now in college since SB XXX.

I hear you..I really do. Heck, I am 61...there is no practical time left.

I completely disagree, and I am not what one would consider a Dez homer. While his route three is limited, there are still several or his skill set is ideal for an offense. Slants, comeback, smoke screens, and crosses are all intermediate Ralphs that he could run. The problem with completing those routes is the quarterbacks accuracy. Prescotts accuracy will get better with experience as it does with any quarterback.
Many QBs don't just magically get more accurate because they play more ball. For some it never comes.

Dak is missing WRs running in stride 7 yards down the field. In clean pockets. It's concerning.

He has missed on some throws but overall been fine. Yes he definitely can play better. 2nd year QB has a 90 passer rating after 4 games and we're already looking to hit the panic button.
i think its just after watching so man 1 year wonders fall apart its a worry

remember these rules, the next game is the test unless you win,

wins prove nothing, losses prove everything

Once you understand those rules, internet life on webboards becomes much easier
Dak has played only 20 professional games. EVERY GAME is still highly predictive because his sample size is so small.

Why don't people realize this?

Big Ben has a bad game you shrug it off because he's played so many. That isn't the case for Dak.

Last season we had the 6th most expected points added vs. an average passing offense in the entire NFL.

This season we've dropped to 19th.

Conventional rate statistics don't mean anything anymore.

See below

Most of Dallas’s metrics are roughly the same as they were last season, with the major exception of the passing game (and some faulty special teams). Last year, in QB Dak Prescott’s first NFL season, he led the Cowboys to the sixth-most expected points added (EPA) through the air of any offense in football — a highly effective complement to Dallas’s second-ranked running game. But although the Cowboys still rank among the top five in rushing EPA, Prescott and the passing offense has fallen to 19th in the league in EPA. Prescott’s traditional numbers aren’t bad, but he’s all but stopped throwing the deep ball and the Dallas receivers are picking up very few yards after the catch. The result has been an aerial attack that struggles to move the chains, keeping the Cowboys from scoring as many points as they should./quote]

The best player on the team hasn't gotten rolling yet and that is because the best position group on the team isn't playing up to their standard. Prescott will be fine once Zeke gets rolling and the OL gets into a groove.

He is a complete product of Zeke and the OL. Still baffled how people didn't realize that Zeke was Offensive player of the year and Rookie of the year last year. But, I digress, Dak will be fine once the running game becomes dominant again.

Right. No worries. Once everyone else is carrying the team, Prescott will be carried along with them.

Man, that just screams franchise quarterback.
