This forum is a microcosm of the general fan base, so its been proven here in this forum to be about a 50/50 split.
That's not the best odds for Dak if he is betting on himself, especially considering that the has never elevated that support from his performance.
Blind stats, are not an accurate measurement.
Those that believe Dak is a franchise QB rely solely on fat stats, they will never recognize what really wins crucial games.
A great QB can put up horrible stats but give you that play that wins the game, that's what stats don't show.
Stats only reflect numbers, and those are given up when your down by 20 and there is only 9 minutes left in the 4th quarter.
Those that spew stats to support their agenda, really have no clue about what gets a team to a SB, or if they did at one point in time, they have forgotten it.
This is complete nonsense and essentially a straw man. His stats are used to directly refute biased inaccurate criticisms.
“He’s so innscurate”. Here’s stats that prove he’s a league leader
“He’s a bus driver and dinks and dunks”. Here’s stats that show he’s a league leader in ypa, air yards, deep ball accuracy etc
“He sucks that’s why we went 8-8 with a stacked roster”. Receivers led the league in drops, special teams was the worst in the league, defense was worst in the league on turnovers
“He can’t beat a winning team” Last year was a weird season so you can have that, here’s how he’s fated over his entire career vs winning teams
“having zeke means they’re loading the box and he can’t take advantage”. Nope. Here’s the percentage of loaded boxes relative to the rest of the league / qbs
Etc etc. these are mathematical facts presented against opinions and eye tests. There’s obviously some fans who may just be impressed with stats outside of any context who wouldn’t be able to justify their stance beyond that anymore than another guy who can only say “he sucks and should be a backup”
the rest of us have exhausted our (informed) opinions, and moved on to supporting them with stats, not relied on them exclusively.
