No doubt Dak is a top 10 regular season QB. He just saves his worst for when the playoffs start.

Not Cowboys fans.

Fans who switch their team allegiance from one of the historically most successful franchises to the currently most successful franchise.

I mean if you're gonna change fandom at least root for a sympathetic team like the Lions -- who have been bad for a really long time and most people wouldn't begrudge them winning their first SB (if it isn't over their own team).

I do. I have the Lions winning the NFC and going to the Super Bowl. Put in a couple early prop bets before the season started.

I know I personally thought that if there was any year they were going to go deep in the playoffs that last year would be it. For most of the season we all thought it might be their year. Obviously the run defense failed them in the playoffs and Dak failed them in the playoffs.

For anyone that says they didn’t think they had a good shot last season is lying. It was the last time I ever drink the cool aid while Dak is the QB of the team and Jerry is the owner. Of course I reserve the right to have a helping of crow if they were to actually win the SB.

Really? Who here was excited? I didn’t think we would see him until either Zeke or Dowdle got injured. I never expected much from him though. I figured he might have a good game or two then get injured and we wouldn’t see him for the rest of the season.

Of course you want to win your bets. Not what I mean though.

You went from cheering for the Cowboys to cheering for the team that just won 3 SBs in 5 years.

I guess you can take the Cowboys fandom out of a Cowboys fan, but you can't take away the one thing that made him root for the Cowboys in the first place.

There were a few here, not sure who they were but I don’t think any were some of the “regular poster”. But I was more just talking cowboy fans in general to be honest. To say no cowboy fan was excited would be an incorrect statement because I know some fans thought he was gonna ball out

Dak has just always put up empty stats. When the game is on the line and a play needs to be made, he just doesn’t come through enough. But to be fair, most QBs probably aren’t it either. The problem with having a guy like dak is he needs a ton of support around him to succeed, so giving him ginormous contracts just kinda cripple the franchise and put a lot more stress on the drafting.

I think the cowboys struck gold getting this guy with a mid round pick, but the window was those first 4 years when he was still on his rookie contract, maybe the next couple as well depending on how the contracts are structured.

I’ve said this before but personally, I think unless you have a Patrick mahomes or josh Allen type of QB, you trade your qb at the end of his rookie contract and start over. You will probably get a few 1sts, combine that with your own and go get another QB that you like in the draft. But that is such a risky move that no GM would ever do it.

Actually the Chiefs have ALWAYS been my favorite AFC team for reasons already discussed years before you even joined Realgm. And before they even won 3 Super Bowls I took sharp notice when they drafted Mahomes. Blame it on doing fantasy football research. I saw the train coming a long time ago. Funny things is though, with all the NFL headlines and things to talk about you sure like to focus on who fans root for instead. Don't they call that being a drama queen?

There are a lot of delusional Cowboys fans that freely drink the cool aid every year. Those are usually the younger fans. I saw a couple saying they thought Cook would have a good season. I don’t remember a lot of them being really excited about Cook though. He showed everyone in NY that he’s washed.

This last 2 playoff games against the Niners did it for me. I understand that the defense failed them but Dak did not play well at all. He showed a lot of “lack of poise”. I don’t know if Dak was exhausted (even though it was early in the game) or if he just folded under the pressure of the moment. Either way it was not good and not what you want to see from your franchise QB. It reminded me of Donovan McNabb’s performance in the SB.

Looking back at Dak’s career he does get a ton of empty stats. He’s either putting up huge numbers against bad teams or he’s putting up big numbers after a team has gone into its prevent defense.

This is what also drives Cowboys fans (the ones I know personally) nuts. What you’re saying is 100% true. The Cowboys are a team that has decided to build their team strictly through the draft. They refuse to sign high dollar free agents. The only free agents they sign are minimum dollar guys that are plug holes. Occasionally they may trade for a guy. What drives us nuts is that they also refuse to trade their elite guys even if it makes sense.

They backed themselves into a corner with Dak so they couldn’t trade him. They can trade Micah Parsons though. A guy with his skill could easily bring back two 1st round picks. For a team that prefers to build through the draft having those picks would really help. They won’t do it though. Instead they will likely make Micah Parsons the highest paid non-QB ever. Before they pay him though they wait until his price has been driven up as high as possible.
