Prescott also had a huge hand in it.

He is middling at best and shrinks when it counts

So the 4th down of play with a DT hanging on to him, is he supposed to carry that guy 10 yards or kick him aside and throw a 40 yard dart?

They scored 28. Guy threw 3 TDs. One of the INTs was on the TE who sucks. The problem with you Dakaholics is that every loss is ALWAYS his fault.

But the loss today was partially on him. He wasn't great.

This isn't all on Dak. The defense was trash and as I have said for the billionth time any team that wants to line up and run the ball right at us will beat us because our DTs suck. But the offense had chances to help out the D when they were reeling and failed. That's just reality.

I think part of the issue here is that some of you are so invested in Dak and now when you watch him play, deep down you realize he isn't great and that the odds of him leading this team to a SB just aren't all that great.

He needs to process quicker and cut it loose.

Look it, this team isn’t going anywhere. Not with this coach or this quarterback.

I would bet $10000 on it. I’m not kidding.

We had a receiver line up offside, a bogus holding call, and receivers running the wrong way all game.

If the WR/TEs run the right routes on the picks maybe we don’t have picks. Sure Dak could’ve played better…but if you told me we scored 28 today before the game I would’ve guaranteed a win. D **** the bed.

But you can't look at it that way. The offense DID ZERO IN THE 4TH QUARTER. Dak was a nothing burger in the 4th Q.

Yeah, the defense failed but it's not like after GB cut it to 7, the league then just gave the Pack another possession. The offense had a chance to stop the bleeding and just spit the bit. And then did it again when the game was tied.

So yea, the offense failed us too.

This team isn't very bright or disciplined, that's for sure. The number of just dumb penalties we commit is mindnumbing.

Invested in Dak? I could not care less. I am just being honest and the honest assessment is this loss was on the defense. Too many of you guys think Dak should be perfect. Every snap.

It was the SF playoff game or the 'win or go home' game against Philly a few years ago all over again.

I kind of give him a pass for the Philly game. He had a bum shoulder and trying to whip the ball around a freezing field with a bum shoulder isn't ideal. But yeah, the 49ers game he failed. And he wasn't great in that Cards game a few weeks earlier when we were playing for seeding in the NFC.

And then when GB cut the lead to 7, what did he do? And then when they tied it, what did he do? Yeah the defense failed but if Dak is as good as you Dak homers claim he is, then when the defense fails, that star QB has to lift the team on his back and overcome. He didn't.

Dak isn't a terrible QB. But he's not a great one and you typically need great ones to win in this league. As I said above, we are now in purgatory.
Dak can't and he never will.
This D was horrible today as well, but Dak showed his real value vs a GB team that had lost the last 5 games.
Anyone who thinks this was a bad performance, just wait until we play good teams the next two weeks.
Vikes are going to clean our clock next week.

Yeah I don't buy that you couldn't care less. You are one of the first to always defend Dak.

If you are being honest, then you'd admit that there were a lot of not goods today starting with the D, but that list would also include our QB who is paid to be an elite QB and wasn't even close to that today.

So the Dak fans gonna blame the Dallas defense, but Dak gifting two INT to a team that’s 23rd in INTs is not on the QB. GB was last in the league in two minute defense and they squid kicked it to end the half and played very SOFT zone. Dak was basically in hurry up all day.

let’s go.. What excuses now? Great blocking, Pollard killing it against a horrible run defense.. The GB front was on the verge of being dead tired by the half.

The last straw of what?
You will no longer watch or like the cowboys or something.

What's last straw even mean in this case.

I think he means the last straw for believing that Dak has what it takes to lead this team beyond where we have gone since Dak got here. It's pretty clear Dak is just a decent to good QB, not a great one and that when a game situation requires elite QB play, or the QB to just will a team to a win against a good team, Dak just ain't that guy you can consistently count on.

Lol no one is a bigger doubter than me but I think you are being overly negative. Big Mike has done a good job here.
