When the Cowboys start slow and the excuse is that Dak is just finding his rhythm

Dak has NEVER had to take a game snap behind the second or third string line, and that's the only reason he's still around.
He should have been drafted by Cleveland so his true abilities would have shown and he'd be out of the NFL by now.
I think I had an aneurysm from the sheer stupidity of this comment. It's nice that you get Wi-Fi privileges at the mental hospital though.

Let's go back to last scenario: the Dallas defense is shutting down the SF offense, that has multiple weapons, only to watch Dak throw 2 bad INT's which cost Dallas the game and a chance for an NFCCG appearance.

That is not an agenda by those who are critical of Dak but rather lifelong Dallas fans tired of the past 27 years of playoff failures expressing their thoughts on the current Dallas QB.....but you and others continue to use your 'safe words' such as hater, troll, agenda member, etc. so as to feel better about defending Dak yet again.
the game was tied at the end of 3rd quarter.....those two interceptions didn't cost the game as you said....they happened in the first quarter. or were you so drunk by then you don't remember and just read the final stats.

Did Dak play bad? yes. but so did bunch of other players. did Dak lift the team to a win? no, he is not Elite and everyone knows that. but when you lose Pollard. have a FB play main running back and average 2.6 yards per carry, then yeah you will have an offense that struggled. where is your criticism of Zeke? Where is your criticisms of Gallup? where is you criticism of Schultz? where is your criticism of OL?
or do you think all of them played well?

yeah, no where to be found. you have an agenda to drive. come he!l and high water, you are going to do it.

Just like members have an agenda to defend Dak at all costs; so call out all sides, right?
Then address those members. I certainly don't defend Dak at all costs. I've said many times I wouldn't extend him unless he earns it from this point forward and that he needs to make a lot better decisions than he did last year and protect the ball better as well.

So then Romo's excuse was he was overweight therefore negatively impacting his play.....so then what is Dak's excuse?
Check their stats. Romo and Dak have very similar reg season stats and playoff wins/losses and keep in mind Dak should have broken Romo’s single season passing record (he was about 5 yards away) and Garrett/Jerry made sure they called running plays to ensure Romo retained the record.

Romo is the better passer, I’ll give you that but Romo did t get us any further than Romo (ie, NFC championship gm). Dak’s INTs last year were an anomaly compare to his previous seasons. We’ll see what happens this year.

Dak also get handed a completely green QB “coach (Kellen “The Hammer” Moore) while Romo at least got an experienced QB coach under Parcells.

None. But they do take snaps behind the 1st team OL. OL also needs to knock off the rust. Everyone should play a series or three in the preseason.
I don't disagree - I prefer to see him take a few snaps as well. But the premise of the thread is about the team starting low, and that hasn't been the case even though Dak didn't play preseason the last few years. As for leebair's comment about playing behind the 2nd & 3rd team line, you can see how little sense that makes just as I can

Most definitely but not until The Great Fantasy Troll War has reached its climax. I foresee everyone in Gondor bowing with respect in the end.

That’s because Mahomes and a Rodgers were atrocious last season. They need to get back on track.

Our guy is in the zone and I won’t tolerate him even taking one snap that could put him in harms way…..not on my watch, nephew
Our guy was the leader of the pack when it came to interceptions! If our guy would have just played an average game against the 9ers the Boys would have played for a trip to the SB, but he didn't and we lost! These were Parson's words right after the 9er loss, Micah stepped up and put the loss squarely on his QB!

LOL...anyone that doesnt have short term amnesia is a troll on this board? Rockport, cowboyroy, ken, etc. all expect that we can't remember last year, year before, etc. Problem is my memory is just fine and regardless of what stats say, Dak still isn't the answer, just like last year, and year before, and year when they signed him to this bloated contract that he doesn't deserve. He has overstayed his welcome and true team over player fans all agree that Dak shouldn't be here, no one cares about 10+ wins when you fail to win in post season. thanks for trying to fool real fans into believing we are the problem
That’s because people that truly understand football understand it takes a team to win a championship not one player

...and Dak was handed an amazing OL, offensive weapons, and a stout defense yet he has done nothing to date.

And Romo had a championship caliber def and he still never got us over the hump. Two QBs, same non-deep playoff results.

Btw, I hope you don’t include Tyron Smith as part of the great O-line you mentioned since he hasn’t played a full season in 7 years and the games missed keeps going up every season.
