C'mon man. The innocent one did not in any way contribute to the huge lead. But he was solely responsible for the big comeback that made the end result look respectable for the box score crowd.

It's funny cause you can literally see Dez going oh crap he's actually gonna throw it with this guy all over it and start retreating immediately.
Wow...Mck gets added to the gaggle of posters here who like to write fictional stories around isolated plays and then makes sweeping generalizations based on those plays.

Yes ..we have to go back to his rookie year, in the playoffs, against Rodgers to ding him.

Ya...he didn't have complex reads his rookie year. AND?????

So why use video footage from 2016-2019 and ignore video footage post 2019 thru 2022.....as in after Dak started racking up some injuries which impacted his QB play? Just curious.
I looked for these same numbers but haven't been able to find them since then.

I am confident he is high on the list....still.

But yes...he snapped his leg and now has a broken thumb. Not good.

How did he lead the league in tight window throws multiple years if he doesn't throw it unless they are wide open?

My man making Khalidi look knowledgable on football.

I don't care what anyone says. Dak does not lead the league in tight window throws. It is the exact opposite of what actually happens. Knowledgeable fans understand that when someone presents information that is completely unsupported by what you see, the information is flawed.
Majority of Dak's throws into tight coverage are in desperation time. If he could consistently make those throws, he wouldn't need 3 all pro receivers now would he?
My man, we keep trying to lead you to reason. Why you resist so hard?

I responded to a post. That happened to be the topic.
Where is the fiction? I can tell you. Its the folks who act like he had a great game and didn't contribute to the huge deficit but deserves all the credit for making the game close in the end.
A high school QB should have saw that DB and not thrown the ball.
What generalization did I make?

Romo's arm strength was on par with Rush's and not Prescott's and yet Romo was better than Prescott. So there's that.
Daks arm is actually on par with rushs.

Dak does not gave a strong arm, he's a body thrower.

Juggernaut in film room
Hits the field with well-conceived plans of attack based on his studies
Makes all the pre-snap decisions rather than looking to sideline
Quick processor able to scan and decide rapidly
Interceptions rarely the result of poor decisions
Overcomes arm deficiencies with outstanding timing and accuracy
Anticipatory thrower with feel for developing windows
Able to lead receivers on crossing routes and long balls and can throw receivers open underneath
Very good natural accuracy
Completion percentage penalized by excessive drop totals
Good pocket poise
Climbs pocket with eyes downfield when heat comes around the corners and can slide left or right before delivering accurate strikes
Has history from under center in play-action, pro-style attack and works all three levels of the field
Dump-downs are only a final option


Dak can't do any of this. Any.

So true.
Refer to the original DraftWire report done on him pre-draft.
Study both the pros and cons.
It's like it could have been written yesterday.

Absolutely zero improvement on cons listed.
Could make a case for regression actually as his mobility was once a smart and advantageous part to his skillset.

Now it's not being used.

Still say he peaked as a rookie.
With the help of great Oline and Zeke carrying the load.Dak wasn’t asked to do too much but make a few easy throws that were open because run game had to be accounted for.

Thank you. I have tried to explain this so many times.
While you are at it, can you help them understand Dak isn't a natural thrower?

Not that Dak has a cannon by any means,his arm is strong enough.You combine Dak’s arm and little bit of mobility, which he doesn’t use,by the way, with Rush’s smarts and everything else and we have a really good
QB.

Considering he's never had 1 all pro wr....your whole argument is flawed.

Amari Cooper has never been all pro. Two weeks ago everyone was crowing that Ceedee Lamb was a number 2. Gallup is a nice wr...All Pro he is not.

Schwartz is. nice TE...not All Pro.

Where are all of these great players he has thrown to?

Again...everyone is supposed to suspend reality to believe the feels and fictional narratives to believe that Dak has fooled everyone for 7 years.

if Dak hasn't got the smarts now, he never will. shrugs, he's what he is now. Brett Hundley is dak, no difference. Guy just landed in a perfect situation.

Dak is the only qb in the league who doesn't get to make mistakes. We are still talking about his 1 pick from week 1 this year....1.
I didnt have issue with these statements, it was more a summation of a few of your other posts round this.

Dak wasn't completely to blame for the smoke screen ..he had a part but not total blame. It was his rookie year...i doubt he had the say to check out of plays. Dak also wasn't solely responsible for the comeback either...just like any other qb who has ever played the game. Again...Dak is the only qb in the league who gets 0 credit for the things other qbs get lauded for. It is really strange.

We all know Dak doesn’t have the brain of a really good QB.Not the smarts or mental aspect of the game.At least, knowledgeable fans know this anyway.

What makes you think he doesn't have the "smarts" or mental aspect of the game? "Knowledgeable fans" don't compare Dak Prescott to Brett Hundley, fyi. Should be your first clue.

Although I don't like it, teams very often step it up when a key player is injured and the backup takes the reins. You would like to think they give 110% regardless. I think we are seeing that. I just hope the effort does not diminish when Dak returns to the lineup. When you have a top noch performer you can become a bit complacent and fall into the mindset of, "it's ok if I am not 100%, Dak will fix it".
It's impossible for anyone to give 110%, sorry, just one of my pet peeves.
