What gets me though is I don’t ever see most of them hating on our owner, coaching or any or other parts of our team.

It’s a one trick pony which reeks of trolling and or lack of overall analysis.

I’ve said the same thing. They dislike Dak but not the guy who have him the contract or drafted him lol. But I guess they wouldn’t get the engagement they look for though huh lol?

Wearing your feelings on your shoulder? Calm down. Jerry loves you. Injuries are excuses for losers.

Dude, you're way off base. Way to overcompensate. I don't like Jerry. and man up. own it: Show me where I have made excuses for injuries. Go search. Be a man @morat1959 and show me where I've done that. You are just a small man tainted in hatred that you can't even comprehend what you are reading.

That’s a tactic of Morat. He says you said something you didn’t ask him to prove it and you will never hear from him again…..until he lies again lol.

I like Jason and he is not wrong saying Dak is not the tractor, he is in the trailer. We've been saying that for years. But two things. First, He is not saying Rush is better than Dak. He makes that point several times. I will also point out again, Dak was having probably the worst year of his career in 2024 before he was injured. He played much better last year. I have no idea what happened to him this year. My theory is the huge contract put pressure on him and we all know he does not always respond well to pressure.

What he is saying is, Jerry didn't have to pay Dak $60 million. Other than a few talking heads who were saying pay Dak, who with an actual stake in the Cowboys besides Jerry thought Dak should get $60 million? No one. Only Jerry.

Finally, do not tell me turnovers is the difference between Dak and Rush. Rush has fumbled the ball 9 times, losing 3, all deep in the red zone. He has also thrown 3 INTs, I think 2 in the end zone, and been lucky a number of other passes were not picked off. The difference between Dak and Rush is not turnovers. It is knowing where to throw the football - most of the time.

I'll say it again, the Cowboys should build a team that runs the football, and stops the run. Make Dak less important to the offense. Win games with defense. The problem may be though, that Dak is not that type of QB. He may want to throw more and rely less on the running game. At this point, the $60 million contract has hamstrung the Cowboys. They need to get out of it as early as they can and take the bitter pills that comes with it.

The question is can the Cowboys win playing this brand of football? It will be good enough to beat the Panthers and the Giants. But you have to have some form of balance. Scoring 20 points to win just isn’t feasible. Your quarterback is gonna have to make plays. You can’t hide them like you could Rex Grossman….

What happened this year? Jerry went dirt cheap, the inevitable injuries happened again and inactivity in the off season was an expected result. Not to even mention the delaying of signing the 2 contracts, and question marks on the back end. Dak has had it good for 8 years, this was the year to be challenged and he failed up until the injury. If he stayed healthy while the OL developed, and we got healthier? We can only guess
