I agree 100%. I've just want to see them make the Championship Game. Then I'll be one of the biggest homers on here. But for some inexplicable reason the Cowboys (since the 2000s) seem to plateau at the Wildcard or Divisional game. Even with Romo at the helm they never made a deep playoff run, which is hard to fathom. So I don't know why some posters constantly bring up those bum QBs in every Dak debate and say "we're spoiled/be grateful/etc " as if the results haven't been the same for 24 years. We can get into the minutiae of things, but the fact of the matter is even with a QB as talented as Romo, the Cowboys didn't sniff the Super Bowl. That's the Dark Ages for me. So I can understand how some fans (myself included) on here are a little gunshy on Dak and have preferred to franchise tag him instead of paying him $35M+/yr. Not sure why the rest can't. But Dak is off to a great start to the season, so let's see what happens. Edited September 15, 2019 by Tony7188 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BUT I have been around during the 70 SBs and certainly the 90s. When you have lived in the light of those, the Dark can seem darker, even if it is not.

DaBoys Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 The polarizing fourth-year pro was money throwing all over the field, but especially on chunk-yardage plays, going 8 of 9 for 243 yards and three scores on passes of 10-plus air yards against New York.

Blows my mind Counter argument, Dak has always been exceptional on passes between 5-15 yards. Thats his wheelhouse by far. His struggle has been 20+ yards. Both in that he wouldnt throw them, and when he did, there was rarely success. Lets see if he and the team have improved there before we bust out the anointing oil. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know this right? Its still Daks choice. And if he chooses not to take #1 QB in the league money, then that is his choice and his agent cant do a damn thing to stop him.
