What a damn game
Dak given every opportunity to get frustrated, shaken, and overwhelmed. The Eagles threw everything at him at every chance. I'm amazed how the guy has picked up the pro game lightning fast and is right in tune.
Just a damn winner. Unbelievable. How in dfuq do we not have that orange bowl trophy in Starkville is beyond me.

You can thank Dan Mullen for that! Dak Prescott deserved so much more than he got at Mississippi State in 2014 and 2015, starting with a Western Division Crown and the opportunity to go to New York.
He's the man
Schwartz sent everything and the kitchen sink at him. The egles had a good defensive game plan. They executed. Zero Elliott is a monster in pads.

Yup. Philadelphia's coach even said before the game that Dak has "had it too easy so far", or something to that extent. Basically it was evident that they were gonna plan A LOT around him. Wonder what he thinks now.
You completely missed my point! I never said he didn't help him at all. If he had a top notch SEC O-line in front him (not a slightly above average line in 14' and a bad one in 15') and a coach that wasn't taking the game away from his players (which Mullen is a master at), then he could have had a HELL of lot more and for that matter so could Mississippi State!
Not to turn
this into a Dan rules/drools thread, but what does this even mean?

Jerry sez ..
"Tony's not ready to play," owner and general manager Jerry Jones said after the Cowboys beat the Philadelphia Eagles 29-23 in overtime on Sunday night at AT&T Stadium.
Yeah right .. Romo ain't ready yet!

The more I watch Dak, the more I respect his great pocket awareness, especially on his blind side. He is difficult to game plan for, since he can adjust on the fly.
Plus, Dallas is in a great position with salary cap to trade Dez for a pass rusher. When they get the defensive line shored up, they can make some history.
Love it for Dak. The pieces seem to be falling into place.

He has a habit of putting the wrong players in position (ex. running Holloway up the middle, as opposed to one of the backs that is more suited for the play) or taking players out of game (or not putting them in) at critical points. Take a look at Josh Robinson in the end of the LSU and Kentucky games of 2014. The guy needed less than 10 yards in both games to break 200. Mullen intentionally pulled him out! Don't take my word for it, go look at the game tape.
I'll give you
Holloway, but the JR needing 200 yards is BS. That has no impact whatsoever on the game.
You may as well be bitching about what socks someone is wearing, in that regard.

You asked for an example, I gave you two. It's not ********, when you're the player and your coach is taking away an opportunity that is on the jumbotron for everyone including the announcers to see and talk about. Again, go look at the game tape and don't tell me that's not a mind 17 game of who's in control! Beyond that Mullen was questioned about it in the press conference after the KY game and gave one of his usual cute, smartass answers (along the lines of) well he had the whole game to get 200 yards maybe next time.
Robinson never played with the same intensity again after that game! So I beg to differ with you, it does have an impact.
As for other examples, there are plenty starting with the 2009 LSU game (ending). However, his marriage to John Hevesy is the most obvious one by allowing that train wreck to continue as long as it has, which was my original point. What could Prescott and the rest of his team accomplished with a REAL SEC O-line in 14 and 15?

Aside from the JR fact, he also pulled the entire first team offense off the field at the end of the LSU game in 2014, when a score would have iced it.
However, his actions damn near cost us the game!

So you've
got one valid complaint with Holloway and two in games that we won...during our greatest offensive season ever, and season overall.
I didn't ask you for an example, I asked what it means, and from your response(s), not much.

Yep, it was the greatest the season (depending on your perspective, I prefer to see us win conference/division titles and/or more with the greatest QB), with so much left on the table.
Its clear to me that everything is fine to you and none of those things matter (which tells me a lot about how you evaluate the program) so there's no need for you and I to continue this exchange.

You're not real
good at reading comprehension.
Where did I say "everything is fine."
Holy hell this is like talking to a child. Never mind. You're right. 2014 sucked.

I never said 2014 sucked dumbass, I said a lot was left on the table. Again, relative to the originalpost/response Dak Prescott deserved much more than he got but I know you're content with the way it worked out and don't see any problem with it because it was the greatest season!
So you want me to
point out all the dumb **** in your posts that you said I wrote?
youve completely gone full retard and are on some straw-man, tangent now???
