Why do some seem to want us/Dak to fail?

[MichaelWinicki]

I'm not seeing much of this.

I just think some folks are tapping the brakes and there are some tougher teams coming up... I get that.

No one wants Dak to fail, dude. Some just get in a hard stance where they are picking their guy (Romo/Dak) over the other. And they won't budge (while still loving Dak's upside).

If anyone is getting it bad right now, it's Tony. And it's not even close.

 

[CowboyStar88]

I haven't seen that.

I've seen more Tony hate than anything

Which is even more disturbing IMO

 

[Cowboyz88]

"Tony Romo" is the answer.

I feel like there are some fans who want to see Romo win it over the Cowboys winning it.

 

[darthseinfeld]

I've seen some posts about how Dak hasn't beaten a winning team and how he has only thrown short passes and how he isn't accurate and blah blah blah. It's time to celebrate a 3-1 record and this is all they can say. Yes, they want him to fail. It's a shame, really.

My question is it critical or clear agenda driven.

Being critical isnt a bad thing

 

[viman96]

I certainly don't want Dak to fail. He's looked great these past few weeks, he even impressed me when I didn't think he could bring us back while in a hole.

BUT I have said since week 1, the biggest test is Green Bay and Bengals for him. Mostly the Bengals and their D, Green Bay is similar to our bend but don't break D.

To be fair that is a legit test for vet QB and specifically this team as a whole.

 

[FLCowboyFan]

Can you provide me with a list of names that wanted Dak to fail?

65fastback2plus2 is the one that got me to write this but he isn't the only one posting threads/posts like his.

 

[MichaelWinicki]

Judging by how how blamed Prescott for Williams fumble last week, I dont think he is being serious

Even RS begrudgingly appreciates what Dak has brought to the table.

"Tony Romo" is the answer.

Like 5 people lol

Everyone is on the Dak train. Don't be dramatic.

 

[65fastback2plus2]

Because for reasons the are beyond me, people would rather see Tony Romo have individual success over team success.

because for many of us...everyone has come and gone and changed and sucked over more than the last decade except Tony. He has been the face of the team. Wanting Tony's success IS wanting the Team's success.

It's a rain on the happy fans parade. That is always agenda driven. All I can guess is that they want Romo back. The silly thing is, Romo will definitely be back as soon as he can play. There's no reason to nitpick what Dak has done. He has performed way above and beyond what we expected from a rookie QB. Why some fans can't let other fans enjoy a win is beyond me.

but we are holding him to a standard that is very difficult for multi-year vets. The kid is a rookie who just started his first 4 games and is getting better each week. We should expect that.

 

[Bleu Star]

Reading through the board tonight after a great win tonight it appears like some are rooting for Dak to fail. Why? If he wins we win! I'm a huge Romo fan but you can't ignore that he has thrown more passes of any rookie ever to start his career without an interception. It doesn't matter who the QB has played.

Why not be happy with where we are vs "just wait for the next three weeks" it's like people are hoping we fail.

In Dak I Trust... PERIOD

I'm no longer dealing with heartbreak. There's hope and I am going to eat it up like Zeke eats yards.

One game at a time. Screw the haters. 4 - 1 on deck.

 

[LocimusPrime]

We got a tough stretch coming up. We are 3-1, have a junky D line, but wins are better than losses!
Dak has been good and will be tested even more in the upcoming weeks. Go Cowboys

 

[willia451]

Dak, Easy E, and the Bease are getting the job done. Meanwhile, on the sidelines, 10s of millions on injured players are flying out the window into a black hole. With no end in sight.

Just an observation I had.

Not saying a thing. One way are the other. On the other hand, the Cowboys are 3-1. If we beat the Bengals and the Packers..........well, you get the idea. We'll see.

Dramatic? Don't be naive.

What did I sat about Dak? I said there is a group of fans who want Romo to win it at all cost, because "he deserves it."

 

[Deep_South]

It's irrational to want Dak to fail right now because Sanchez would be the QB.

 

[Trouty]

because for many of us...everyone has come and gone and changed and sucked over more than the last decade except Tony. He has been the face of the team. Wanting Tony's success IS wanting the Team's success.

But you hate Dak. It's somewhere in that post. How could you even dream of supporting Tony when we have Dak. How dare you, 65...

 

[FLCowboyFan]

I agree with others on the Romo hate as well. The man has given his body for our team and he deserves our respect. Nobody who is a fan should disrespect what he has done for the team.

This is more of what I think the original post is about. It was posted here the other day that we are protecting Dak and giving him gameplans that are designed to make him succeed. Well, no frikking duh. You have to execute and he is doing more than anyone could have anticipated. The thing is, if it is so easy to draw up simple gameplans in order to make a QB succeed, why wouldn't an OC do that for EVERY QB? Dak obviously has a lot of talent.

It's the same thing after a win and we have threads saying a player should have been called for penalties, or we got lucky because one of their players got injured...there are some people that just have to find something to complain about.
