...Second verse, same as the first...

I know he lacks some things at this point in his career but they never talk about Dak having to run for his life almost every time he drops back, or that Zeke and their best OL player are in street clothes and the Giants only have to defend Dak.

Why the heck is he even playing? More ineptitude from a poorly run organization.

- Seems like talking down about Dak has become the "in thing" "intelligent sounding" thing for analysts to say.

- The Cowboys are not poorly run. In an era of the NFL with complete parity, they've been one of the most consistent teams.

I can’t believe the nfl keeps having these meaningless last weekend games. Ditch the AFC-NFC conferences & have 4 8-team divisions & seed the playoffs 1 through 12.

Should do the same in all sports. Get rid of all divisions and leagues, everyone plays everyone... I predict Golden State and John Cena in the championship.. If Justify didn't have an ankle, he'd be my dark horse.

120 passer rating today with 387 yds, 4 TDS, and 0 turnovers. Not bad for a guy that’s clearly not a starting NFL QB...

What are you going to do, just cancel the games that don't matter? What about players on bad teams who still could end up leading the league in something that could be as much as a million dollar bonus. You'd then hafta dock their pay to only 15 games. The owners aren't gonna want to give out millions in game checks for week 17 if there is no gameday money coming in.

Then you got players vying for MVP's the top 2 for the award, one could have already wrapped up their playoff spot and his game is canceled and the other guy might be on a 10-5 team that has to play week 17 to get into the playoffs. You're getting rid of conferences has merit, but just not playing games bc they are meaningless is NEVER gonna happen.

I have an idea to make the last several weeks matter. Pick, say, the third round of the draft and instead of ordering it based on most losses goes first, it goes in order based on who won their last games of the regular season, with ties going to who won the previous game, and so on. That way there's an incentive for a team that already wrapped up its playoff spot to try to win, or a 2-13 team to try to eek out a win.

Dak is a competitor and he's winning more than he's losing. But these analysts are paid to state the obvious: Dak is not a all that great a passer. He rushed two deep throws, missed Cooper badly at the end and Beasley had to make a great catch on a pass Dak waited nearly too late to throw.

In spite of that his completion percentage is still leading the NFL, because the organization puts together a pretty good plan for him behind that pretty pedestrian offensive line. Thank Beasley and Zeke for all of their catches.

Glad Dak played for MSU and is now leading the number one sports franchise in the nation. He's a great ambassador for the Maroon and White.

That said, I hate the Cowboys, particularly 17n Jerrah Jones. I hope he runs Dak off to another NFC team that whoops their a$$es every year. Although Dak may not be quite as successful in another offense... but I'd like to see him get a chance without that stupid star on the side of helmet. Hail Redskins!

Jones is not running him off. Dak has a pretty good surrounding cast to help him be successful. I don't want to see him go to a crap team and end up with a short career.

^^This everyday and twice today.^^

There are outliers like Brees but NFL QB's are very seldom as successful as they were with the team that drafts them if they get a chance to play (which he has), are surrounded by talent (he is), and have remained healthy at the first stop, which he has.

There is gonna be noise constantly surrounding the Cowboys QB unless he has Troy's rings or Tony's dimples. Dak has proven he will rise about the mess. He will never have the platform and notoriety outside of Dallas if he can win there, which secondarily is good for us. We have gotten exposure and goodwill thru Dak being the Cowboy QB that you simply can't put a price on. With the way the 'boys have slayed it in the draft the last 4-5 years, that management group is gonna keep the team infused with young talent even as a lot of these players 2nd contracts are maturing. He's in about as good of a spot as he could hope to be in.

Kinda disagree. They got a full game of reps for Dak and the WR’s to get some more chemistry. Remember that the best WR on the team has only been in their system for less than 2 months. Contrast that with 2016 where they rested everybody in week 17 and looked all out of sorts against the Packers in the playoffs.
