What specifically impresses me most about Dak

[Vinnie2u]

Me too

Save me seat at that table. Never been so glad to be so wrong.

He engineered it? Really?

3 runs to start. He engineered that?
A defender fell down. He engineered that?
A TD pass. This was a good throw, he gets credit for that.

1 play out of 5.

Yeah but what a play it was. And even if the defender fell down he still got it there and to the guy that's single covered. Good read.

Why not give Dak credit for an impressive drive that included a 42 yard in-stride pass play to Terrance Williams followed immediately by a beautiful 20 yard TD pass to Brice Butler in the back right corner of the end zone? That drive likely won Dak the starting QB job. His two-minute drills have been outstanding.

I agree.....looks like the Romo lovers have come out in full force tonight trying to defend their savior. They are downplaying Dak's achievements as much as they embellish Romo's. Romo himself also has no control over the strength of the opposing defense or injuries or whatever they had for lunch. They see the QB job slipping away with each Dak/Cowboys win. Even Jerry will be hardpressed to insert their fave at this juncture.

Don't get me wrong, I still want Tony on the team, but as a backup for now until he is needed if necessary.

When we are over analyzing a 97-yard drive in which he accounted for 74 of the yards ... you know things are going well for the kid.

The funny thing is all the Garrett haters are about to watch Garrett and Dak become the new Billy/Brady.

Absolute best case. I'd be ecstatic with 1 after all this time. Dak still has a lot to prove to be compared to TB12. Garret even more.

Did you not read my post you quoted? I gave credit for his one good play on that drive. The play to Williams was a gimme, not some great throw.

It's all part of football. Just like Brice Butler dropping a perfect 42 yard pass from Dak which will just show up as an incompletion on the stat sheet.

His use of the pocket and his mental toughness.

It's a part of football on the stat sheet, but when analyzing how someone plays you have to actually consider the plays and what happened.

The drop by Butler was a good throw, and really was far more impressive than almost anything on that TD drive.

Oh man, I don't know about this. I will say Dak saved GarettTop's ***. I've said this before, Dak's biggest fan is Garrett. He single handedly saved RedBall's career as a NFL head coach.

 

[Tenkamenin]

He does not play like a rookie.
Dak does not appear to be afraid,or rattled.
In my book he starts from now on.

What good will sitting him on the bench do for him? The kid needs the experience and he's getting better and better each game.

After so many years of wandering through the desert. We are delivered.

It was absolutely the desert after Troy.

But we weren't wandering with Tony, we just didn't have all the pieces.

Dak could've won with the 2014 team and last year's team.

But Dak would've been right around 8-8 with those 8-8 teams. The offensive line was terrible as was the pass defense - bad combination.

If he makes that catch, everybody is calling him the next Alvin Harper.

I thought dropping it made him the next Alvin Harper....

Double tap....
