NFL 2017 Week 5 |OT| Free fallin', I'm-a free fallin'

Moral Victory parade lets gooooooooooooooooooooooo
Not even a cowboys fan. It’s just like in the playoffs last year though. Dak played about as well as you could expect any human being to play and got beat out because he played the absolute most talented QB to ever play the game.

Sometimes you can only do so much. Dallas lost that game as a team, but there’s barely any of it anybody could pin on Dak for it.

Oh wait, you were serious?

Dak threw a pick 6. He even missed Beasley on the last drive that could've potentially been 6. He made plenty of mistakes lol.

Watson about to ball out

Should it have been caught? Yes. Could it have been a better throw? Yes. He doesn't take all the blame, but he didn't throw a perfect ball either.

Hit his hands he should catch it, but whatever I know how these threads roll, knee jerk reactions until the next week where there's more knee jerk reactions.

Everyone saying Dak should have taken a knee at the one ..... no, just no. If they were only down 3 or less, sure you do that, but they were down 4 and needed a touchdown. Hell, Green Bay nearly stopped them with less than a yard to go a couple plays earlier. You don't take a TD for granted, even from the one. Anything could happen. He did the right thing running it in.

Yes...Still doesn't mean the throw couldn't have been better. It's not like he threw the ball 30 yards down field. It was a 5 yard pass that was off target.

You do when you have that sort of "defense"

Counterpoint: They have one of the best offensive lines and running backs. If they can't get a yard in four tries, they deserve to lose.

That pick 6 was nowhere near Dak’s fault, come the fuck on.

And he actually threw right where Beasley should’ve been. He literally led the ball to where, if Beasley didn’t let up that half step when he turned his head around, he could’ve gone for a TD. He let up ever so slightly though and would’ve gotten obliterated right after catching it if Dak put that ball where Beasley wound up.

Not saying it’s even Beasley’s fault there. The way the coverage was there was only so little margin of error there.

I would take that offense trying to punch it in a TD as time expires rather than giving Rodgers the ball again.

You're not gonna throw perfect balls all the time, that wasn't a hard catch to make. He wasn't that off target as you're trying to make it seem.

And it wasn't a perfect ball. Which led to an interception. Which he is partly at fault for. So why are we still discussing this?
