Intriguing that there is detailed pottery of dinosaurs, with coloring; human figures interacting with dinosaurs.

In light of the dinosaur foot and human fossilized foot prints in Glenrose, Texas, it does seem like there is reasonable evidence pointing towards co-existence at some point in time.

This evidence is so old...

Not to be glib, but that’s one thing i’ve noticed about Young Earth creationists. Their evidence is always so old...

The Acambaro Dinosaur figures are fakes.

These claims were investigated by Dr. Charles Di Peso in 1953. Some of the problems he noticed;

1. The surfaces of the figures appeared new. There was no evidence of dirt packed into crevices and they were not marred by a patina or coating of soluble salts characteristic of genuinely old artifacts from the same area.

2. The find included 32000 figures in almost perfect condition, which is unbelievable and has no equal in all of anthropology. The few pieces that are broken are unworn, and no pieces are missing. Also, no pick or shovel marks can be found on any of the figures.

3. Waldemar Julsrud, the one who arranged to have the site excavate in 1945, paid his workers 1 peso for every intact figure they brought him. Quite a motivation for fraud.

These are just some of the reasons the Acambaro find is a fraud.

Same goes for the Paluxy Tracks in Glenrose, Texas. That evidence is so bad, not even the Institute for Creation Research will vouch for it.

Ken Ham of Answers in Genesis even includes them in his list of Arguments Creationists Shouldn’t Use.

I looked at the article you posted, but I only made it to the 5th paragraph before I face palmed. The author makes the claim that “Three radiocarbon tests were performed by Isotopes Incorporated of New Jersey resulting in dates of 1640 BC, 4530 BC and 1110 BC.”

You don’t use radiocarbon dating to get accurate results when you test ceramics. Radiocarbon dating is for organic material, wood, leather, etc.

Is there a field of science that YEC’s ever get right?

There are literal mountains of undisputed scientific evidence supporting theories of "old earth" and evolution.
All alleged evidence to the contrary is at best disputed, at worst totally debunked.

Actual physical fossil evidence of co-existence between dinosaurs and human ancestors reveals creatures along the lines of these:
