Every year as a marketing ploy, we got to hear about how Dak has worked with some QB training legend to address his horrible mechanics and throwing motion and accuracy. Last year it was all about his “football field” in the backyard. My favorite part was when he groupies on this forum used this as an example of his hard-work in comparison to “Cabo” Romo to bash on the latter.
Dak actually went to work with former QB Jeff Beck before the 2018 season.. Going into 2018 this is what we heard.

And here he goes with Kitna again into 2020:

Tell us Tad, what did Beck or Kitna ever accomplish in the NFL, other than their legacy of ‘improving’ your brothers kindergarten levels of mechanics and footwork that always seem to rear it’s ugly head during Dak’s ‘slumps’. When are we going to get an article in Dak working with a QB coach in the off-season to not do that stupid hitch on go routes?
Ever since Dak has set foot in this organization, the story of his horrible mechanics and accuracy has been a reality hovering over this offense. Like I said, this diatribe that he’s getting unjustified criticism at the expense of praise is complete nonsense. This guy has been baby-sat for years, while his limitations are well-recognized in reality.
The Stans still sent he throws behind WRs and he waits for WRs to be completely open, yet here he is, year in and year out, in year 6 working on his mechanics and accuracy. And you wonder why every movement on the field for Dak seems artificial, slow, heavy and robotic.. You disrupt his rhythm in a game, it’s over for him. Until garbage time when he resorts to ‘streetball’ and the pressure to win being down by three scores in the 4th has been ‘lifted’.
