Eh, this season was house money. No shame in losing to one of the GOATs on a miracle play.

Dak proved we are set at the most important position for the next decade.

Get more defensive pieces in the offseason

Profit.
We'd better invest very fucking heavily at DE in the offseason. Our inability to generate a pass rush all season long was exactly the reason we lost today, just as we've said all season long.

At least we lost in a way that makes it obvious what our probles are

No one should even consider pinning this on Dak. It was 100% on the defense choking like it always does. No pass rush and DBs who suck shit in critical moments. It's just business as usual for those turds.
Correct. Dak had a tremendous game so did Elliot. It was the defensive strategy in the first half.

Unless the strategy was stand around and let Rodgers pick us apart. Then, it was the perfect strategy.

This is not in any way a blame on Prescott so please don't read it like this. Not saying Romo would have had any different outcome.

But this is why rookies don't win Super Bowls.

Cause rookies are almost never Aaron Rodgers. And when you run into an Aaron Rodgers in the playoffs you lose.
This is such an asinine statement. So many flaws in the logic.

He didn't lose this game. Tread lightly right now. And, I am not kidding.
I think you are misunderstanding me.

I am saying he managed to take the "L" in a way that was a good enough performance by him that will leave no one second guessing whether Romo should have gone in.

The offensive strategy is what lost the game in my opinion. To much empty set passing. If is mind boggling how they keep taking away the threat of the run with the nfls best running back.

Just another long ass offseason waiting for hope. FUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Just fucking sucks, now it's like nothing until the draft and free agency. I will say, at least we have a RB, QB and O-line that should get us to the playoffs again next year and for many years to come. Here's to hoping Jaylon Smith is all he is cracked up to be.

I think what he is saying is that we lost but we did so in a way that it can't be pointed back at Dak.

Weird way to say it, but that's what he means.
Yes he did. Dak lost this game because he's a rookie.

Dak could've scored 55 points tonight, but it goes back to "he's a rookie and rookie QBs have never won the Super Bowl."

Knowing this, we should've just tanked the season, grabbed the #1 pick and then try with Dak in Season 2.

Yeah, even with decent coverage an elite QB like Rodgers will carve you up. Your only chance with him is to pressure him before he gets a chance to do that. Once we figured out how to blitz it worked great. But when we didn't blitz we couldn't contain him.

Yeah, and it's extremely retarded logic. Dak played nothing like a rookie. Neither did Zeke for that matter. So pointing out him being a rookie as the reason for our loss is just silly babble.

This was as good of a chance as they were gonna get to win it all. They fucking blew it.

No dominant teams this year. It was wide open. They'll probably never get a chance this good again, and quite frankly, they don't deserve one.

Taking off the homer glasses for a minute, I would rather a team who deserves it more with more grit to win. That's just talking from a non-biased perspective.

Thats not what I was saying.

I was really saying he lost cause he's not Aaron Rodgers. There are only so many of those guys and until you have one yourself you are susceptible to running into one of those buzzsaws.

It's not just that. He gives you blitz pick-up options and can catch out of the backfield.

He should never come off the field.

Why is that? Dak and Zeke aren't going anywhere for the next 5-8 years. We will have more shots. Think of this like the 91 Cowboys.

Now we just need to get our cap right and get a draft pick by trading away Romo.

lol if any of you retards don't realize how bad our defense was then please stop following football all together. what a travesty. Romo is gone. LIke half my passwords are pro romo. Dude is a fucking corpse. We let a-aron carve us up. not the first time that ever happened. Our defense could not handle him. Just deal with it. He's an all time great. A fucking douchey twatbag, but a complete badass. It happens. Too much misguided crying here. I would have blitzed every play, probably lost 57 to zero. dude is good. chill the fuck out.
