Will this be Dak's best season?

Dak’s performance will come down to his health, OL and RB play and the play of our defense. If games get thrown on him because we can’t run the ball or stop anyone he’s likely in for a rough season along with the team.

I agree with you about not putting the pressure on Dak to win games by himself. Always hated paying him elite QB money. He is what he is, a QB that if surrounded by enough talent can win in the league.

Say what you want about the Cowboys chances if getting back to the playoffs or getting over the playoff hump.

Say what you want about having a new coaching staff or potential weaknesses at DT, OT or CB.

If I'm Dak Prescott, I'm looking at this season as a chance be my best. I've got 2 of the best WRs in the game. I've got weapons like Turpin and Blue with speed to burn. I've got a coach Schotty that isn't going to let me abandon the running game. I've got the best interior OL protection I've had since my rookie season. All I have to do is get that ball out of my hands quick and stay healthy.

Can he do that? If he can and the team can stay healthy, he has every chance to have his best season,

What say you?

It all boils down to if they can run the ball. Simple as that.

I think we'll have an effective if not dominant running game this year. Defenses will not be able to stack against the run, which gives our current crop of RBs that extra split second and having a top interior OL helps out with that. Teams that choose to run blitz will pay the price IMO. And if teams fall behind early against the Cowboys this season, we get to tee off against their QB.

There’s certainly reason to be optimistic and now we have to wait to see it on the field.

You're missing some subtlety here. The difference between Dak and those elite QBs is that they did possess the ability to rise to the occasion to make the game winning plays when their team wasn't playing all that great. You put Dak on the Kansas City Chiefs these past few seasons. Do you think he is going to have Mahomes success? I would argue no he wouldn't. It doesn't mean that Dak can't have some post-season success if he has the help he needs. That's all I'm saying.

Just have to laugh at this point watching him.

did you laugh at his defense that gave up 553 rushing yards in three of the cowboys last four playoff games?

I certainly lol'd(wanted to hide in shame actually) when Dak's D was completely impotent vs Green Bay. That was as bad a defensive performance that you will ever see. Completely embarrassing. one receiver was open nearly by 30 yards. You laugh at that? You laugh at that defense getting gashed quite effortlessly? Any of that tickle your funny-bone?

Not sure why anything we have done makes you believe that. You think just because we added some people we are DOMINATING!

We been saying that for 30 years...but NOW...well now we shall. We can just SAY it...for the 31st time...and BOOM...DOMINATE.

I love being a good fan...but dang. This is like a beaten wife syndrome. "I love you baby you need me I won;t beat you again promise"

It's weird by now.
 
From 2020-2023..... his best season was when he played all 18 games, and got into the MVP conversation. All 3 other years he had a nagging injury of some kind.

If he's healthy, he's pretty much elite.

So.... it all depends on if he's healthy.

No I didn't say dominant. I said effective. There's a difference, silly!

So...really? Dak only fails if he has an injury?

Dude.
