Don't mess with Texas
Spot on!??I really enjoyed this kid. I saw the highlights last week and was looking forward to seeing him all week. He really delivered.
I was kind of hating twitter tonight. Can Cowboys fans (and Dak) just enjoy a nice performance? Geesh.
Everyone is always so eager to point out preseason doesn't matter, almost in an insulting way to downgrade a nice performance.
It does matter.
He's not supplanting Romo. That wasn't the plan. He was drafted to develop behind Romo and maybe one day be the guy.
He was a college star and now he's been an NFL star against second and third string defenses. It's a step.
I would guess it's possible he starts in week four of preseason. If so, that'll be our only chance to see him against the ones.
Today everyone will discredit him dominating the twos and threes. If Romo is hurt in week eight of the regular season, every one will suddenly be all interested in how Dak did in preseason.
These preseason performances are supposed to come with a grain of salt, not a truckload of salt dumped on your head.
I like this kid a ton and I'm going to continue to until he gives me a reason not to.
Dak is a rookie.....a rookie who's NEVER played in the NFL. He's playing behind Tony Romo. With that being said, he too is a second teamer but the point is he's dominating them at this point and that's what we want to see. A second teamer rookie QB dominating on the field against the competition.
Again, Dak is not a 3 or 4 years backup with some experience playing in the NFL. He's never played in the NFL! If you actually take the time and watch him play there is no way that anyone with any type of football IQ can say there isn't smoke behind this kid. We all know where there's smoke there's fire.
Im not saying he's a hall of fame QB, Hell im not saying he's a pro-bowler but watch him play then come back and say this kid doesn't have something.
Zeke is playing next game and I can't wait to see these two on the field with this offensive line and Dez!
