2/3rds of the teams around the league would snatch him up if they could in a heartbeat

No doubt. Him & Romo are the ONLY quarterbacks after Aikman that were able to take this franchise anywhere, period. Romo had to deal with 8-8 clapper, for a decade. Jerry held on to his step son too long. It's amazing how some hate on a quarterback when in fact it takes an entire squad (including coaches) to run on 4 cylinders as they did against Minnesota. Dallas could have easily landed Wentzie or Goff. Sure Goff took a trip to the Superbowl, but that was McVay (whose also the play caller) & he did the same with Stafford.
If Stafford was any good, he would have taken Detroit to more playoffs then then just three (which he lost) in over a decade with Detroit. He goes to the Rams who was all set up & wins a Superbowl. Again, it's a team & defenses that wins championships, not an individual player as many haters suggest.

So Stafford loses in Detroit and he's no good but he goes to the Rams and wins a SB because of coaching. So I guess he had good coaching and D in Detroit that you can say he wasn't any good? You don't even see the contradiction of your statement.

Before he threw that god awful pick on second to last possession of the game, they kept showing close ups of the QB1. I swear I saw fear and definitely confusion on his face. BTW anybody but the worst team in the league ices the game there.

Yep, saw the same thing several times during the game. Had that classic deer in the headlights look. It was very noticeable on the sidelines when he had his helmet off.

anyone else notice how he does the scrambling jump pass where there appears to be no reason or benefit to jumping while attempting a throw?

He's probably not a top-10 QB
But this is not an elite defense and is nothing more than average at this point.

Ms. Daboyz,
First, my appologies for being abrassive in prior posts. I had no idea you were a lady and while we have some crazy fans here, we're not heathens (except for BB....stay far, far away).
I wouldn't have any issues with Dak's INT's if they were agressive in nature and down field passes. But he'll throw into tripple coverage on 10 yard routes because he can't read a D.
I remember reading about Mahomes throwing a ton of picks in training camp early in his career and Andy Reid told him to keep chucking it and that they won't score if he's afraid to go downfield. I feel the same way.......

A true gentleman. Apology accepted. I do understand your frustration w/Dak. But remember, he's not alone in that department.
Wishing you a very Merry Christmas Dodger

Merry Christmas to you and yours as well. No, Dak is not alone. I think Mahomes being on your lists reinforces my earlier point that his HC wants him to be aggressive. I use to call Dak a dink and dunk QB (Dink and Dak) and that's what he reverts to because he can't read a D and he doesn't trust his arm.
It's year 7 and the NFC is WIDE open. There are no true franchise QB's left and if we don't get to the SB this year, we never will with Dak under center.
