Something tells me that Rush might be a better fit for the KM offense. I liked the game-plan, playcalling and execution much more vs Ben-gals.

Let's see what he does against the Giants defense. If the 2021 Vikings D and the 2022 Bengals D are better than what the Giants are going to peddle out there, he should be set up well.

I am not convinced that he can be fixed. Once a player loses confidence and mojo, they are done. I think Prescott is getting to those crossroads.

Exactly. His confidence seems to have been shaken at some point, and you don't know if he'll ever fully get it back. It's been quite a few games now since he went into a funk. It's getting to be too Iong to call it just a slump.

Sports Illustrated, 1984:

"My second year here," said Gary Hogeboom, the new Dallas starting quarterback, "coach [Tom] Landry said, 'If I pronounce anybody's name wrong, just come and tell me.' He was calling me Hogenboom and sometimes Hogenbloom, so I said 'What the heck? I might as well give it a shot.' I told him, 'Coach, you pronounce my name Hoag-a-boom.' He said, 'Gary, when you become a starter, I'll learn how to pronounce your name.'"

I'll be damned.

It makes me nervous as shit.

 

[Smitty]

Stupid.

Now we know why you loved Paxton Lynch.

Easier to look good passing when you actually have a #1 WR to throw to

 

[boozeman]

I'll be damned.

People back then thought Saint Tom had Alzheimer’s.

 

[ravidubey]

I don't think it was Hogeboom he messed up. Maybe Phil Pozderac?

He called Gary Hogeboom “Hogenboom” I think maybe in the same press conference he announced he would start over Danny White

We just can’t forget to run the damned ball and not force the pass.

Oh, and more Tony Pollard

I said at the time that I didn't mind signing Armstrong for half as much as Gregory, my real problem is that they more or less sat on the savings that could've been used elsewhere to even further bolster a strength.

If Dak comes back healthy and can play reasonably well I would quite literally argue that we would be the NFC front runners if we had a pass-rusher opposite Micah like Miller or Chandler Jones.

 

[boozeman]

Yeah, we get it that Parsons is a force of nature but holy shit.

can we get a clarification on what a pass rush win actually is, unless its simply defined as a sack. I get the feeling theres more to it.

Owning is right.

Dorance is way better.

 

[Simpleton]

Gregory is definitely better but I'm not paying twice as much for him, especially considering he's 30 and generally flakey in the first place.

Gregory has forced a couple fumbles so he is making an impact. He just does not always finish very well.

 

[armadillooutlaw]

I think Young is right.

Dak just hasn't looked right ever since the injury last year.

At first I thought it was because he wasn't completely over the injury, but obviously that's not the case now.

So while it may have been an injury that started it all, there's something that affected him psychologically or something because the struggles and bad mechanics have carried over.

I hope it's not too late to fix him.

Dak is mentally fragile.
He's not been the same since the injury against NE and it took him nearly a full season to bounce back from the nightmare Atlanta game in 2017.
