Most likely, Dak has reached his ceiling and if the Cowboys could play defense, they'd be 3-0 right now.
IMO, Dak is pretty much the same guy as Matt Ryan, except that unlike Ryan, Dak is mobile and can use his wheels to make plays, so if the Falcons can make it to the Super Bowl, I don't see any reason why Dak and Cowboys can't make it.
If the Cowboys can't figure out their defensive issues in the next few seasons, their current Super Bowl window will be closed and they'll be looking at a full on rebuild because their offensive line isn't getting any younger and without that protection, Dak turns into a pumpkin.

History is littered with 'running' QBs that eventually learned to read a defense. Cunningham eventually got better at it, so did Vick. Of course, plenty of them didn't as well.
But let's say Lamar doesn't get much better at the cerebral part of being a QB. He still owns the best record for a QB against the league, unless he plays the Chiefs. That means going to the playoffs nearly every season.
When's the last time Dak got into the post-season? How many consecutive seasons?
