Man oh man was it a bad weekend for football fans in Texas, first the Longhorns drop their rivalry game against Oklahoma and now the Cowboys get thoroughly embarrassed on Sunday Night. Tonight the Dallas Cowboys got absolutely throttled by the best team in the NFL the Sanfrancisco 49ers. The Cowboys who many thought were one of the best teams in the NFL through the first four weeks were quickly and efficiently thrown out of that conversation. So what happened? Long story short, Dallas played a real team. The Cowboys first four wins were against bad teams, combined the first four teams they played (The Giants, Jets, Cardinals, Patriots) are 4-15 which is good enough for an impressive 21% win percentage. But this doesn't tell the whole story lots of people will say "It's Daks fault", "He shuts down in primetime", "He's bad against good teams". But what if I told you Dak is never good. What if I told you that primetime Dak is just Dak. In the first three games Dak averaged one touchdown pass a game, and a 69(nice) QBR. Meanwhile tonight Dak had one TD pass and a 51 QBR. Now I will give Dak some credit, before tonight Dak was averaging .25 interceptions per game and tonight he did have 3. So maybe in that aspect Dak is only bad against teams with a pulse, but myself being in the incredibly educated un-syndicated pundit I am I know Dak is just bad. Dak is not the answer he will never be the answer. Through the first four games the Cowboys defense and rush game was elite. The defense averaged giving up 111.75 rush yards a game, along with 2.5 turnovers a game, and one touchdown a game. Tonight they had no defensive touchdowns only one turnover and gave up 170 rushing yards. The Dallas rushing game also averaged 1.25 TD's per game and gained 141.25 rush yards a game coming into this game. Meanwhile this game they had no rushing touchdowns and only 57 rushing yards. Long story short if Dak does not have an elite defense who can score, and a lethal rush game he can't win. Dak will never elevate his game to beat a competitor, he will always need to be carried. Primetime Dak is just Dak
