Dak Prescott thread

[Mariner]

What are the other areas of need in your honest opinion?

Draft and get you get younger at Oline.
Tyron is ancient. Not sure how much more we can squeeze out of him. Martin is getting older. Our Center is small and a free agent. We also need a RB that puts fear in the opponents.

I know we currently have 4 starts out on defense. Your thoughts on that side of the ball?

Defense secondary is fine with Bland and Diggs. We will need to draft another DB in the later rounds as we might lose Gilmore and Lewis.
Linebacker is difficult. Is Clark trending in the right direction? How will Overshown be after an injury and not playing?
Like our pass rush. Getting bigger on the front seven to stop the run might be a good idea.

If that’s the case why were the 49ers and bills games blowouts and not shootouts?

Funny how Micah avoided giving you an answer here.

I figured it wouldn’t tbh

It's too time consuming to reply to everything from everyone

I'm one of 3 active Dallas fans and the only Cowboy fan here to defend Dak. So it portrays me as Dak obsessed but the reality is that NFL fans are Dak obsessed. As seen here where it is two others demanding that I come in here to defend Dak.

Anyway I never said that the offense did great in those blowouts, just that the defense did worse. The main difference between the Ravens beating the 49ers and Dallas being killed by the 49ers was the 5 INTs that the Raven's defense produced.

So then defense does help offense? Therefore playing horrible offenses would help the defense therein helping the cowboys offense?

You can’t have it both ways lol

So how long is a defense suppose to hold up when the offense doesn't even get a 1st down in 9 straight possessions?

Both ways? I'm not going two different ways.

Playing horrible offenses helps defensive numbers much more than offensive numbers.

A true elite defense would hold the entire game. Teams have won SBs on defense before. And teams win games all the time without a QB throwing a single TD.

[Micah Prescott]

Hell the Broncos won a SB with Peyton throwing 0 TDs and 1 INT

The idea that a defense can't hold with a poor offense is BS

Also speaking of the ravens producing 5 INTs the niners produced 3 against the cowboys. Dak threw 3

So by your metric how is the defense more to blame?

And dak threw for 134 yards and 1int vs the bills

By what metric is the defense more to blame.

Either the defense has no effect on the efficiency/success of an offense or it does

And if that’s the case then either dak is taking advantage of bad offenses and having the ball with good field position, more frequent possessions, and with little pressure of opponent scoring

Or

Dak and the offense are an isolated entity and therefore his performance against good teams on the road is on him and not the defense

You can’t have it both ways

You mean a top 10 defense statistically in the entirety of nfl history

That’s your expectation? That’s what you’re demanding to protect dak? A top 10 defense all time?

So in order to feel as though dak has earned blame he has to have an all time defense and still lose

Then he’s to blame? Interesting

I'm not trying to have it both ways, because I am not declaring that Dak or the Dallas offense was great in those game. I'm just saying that defense was worse.

The Dallas offense ranks higher than the Dallas defense does.

Our defense is good vs the pass but vs the run we give up 115.7 YPG which ranks 20th in the NFL and running is what eats clock up and the reason the defense can't get off the field.

What about when defenses do hold up, play their guts out all game and then lose a playoff game all on your own by having QB throwing an int in your own end at the 30 yard line and then throw another int at the Niners 12 yard line when your about to score? Its called leaving 10 points off the board and a trip to the NFC Championship game. And its the defenses fault. O.K.

Ok so let me get this straight

Your issue is the cowboys don’t have a 2000 ravens, 2015 broncos, 2002 bucs, 2013 Seahawks.

So in your estimation dak is Trent dilfer, Brad Johnson, no neck Peyton manning. He needs an all time defense.

So it’s the cowboys defense fault for not being a top 10 defense all time?

I never said that is my expectation. That is one example of a defense winning it all without a good offense. Showing that great defenses can do it.

This is a strawman...I never said that Dallas should have the greatest defense in the history of defenses.

I'm saying our defense is worse than our offense.

So playing bad offenses and getting off the field giving the Dallas offense more opportunities does play a factor in the offensive ranking of the Dallas cowboys

So playing bad teams, bad offenses does in fact aid in the scoring and other various statistical rankings of the dak and the offense

Just checking we’re on the same page

So assuming the cowboys defense is a normally good defense and not an all time defense then we can safely say the offense has a reasonable expectation to hold their end of the bargain in games like the bills and niners. So when they put up 10 points in both games and dak throws 3 INTs and for 134 yards with 1int in the other it can be reasonable to assume that dak is hurting the defense?

So then you admit that we need a 1986 Bears defense to win a Super bowl as long a dumb Dak is our QB? I mean its not like Manning had to do much in this game except not lose it. Cam Newton only had 64 yards passing in that game, also had 1 int and got sacked 6 times.
