Dak Prescott - Speed Demon

[big dog cowboy]

Need to see this more often.

Ok let's see if we can see it some more! They can clock him faster than a cheetah, he's still slow, and they still have to call more plans for him to use his legs. He has to be smart, for some reason he seems to be against sliding, he takes some big hits

I don't care to see designed runs but Dak 100% has to pull it down and take off when the defense plays soft like that. When he see's that defensive look again he just needs to go and that will cause a defensive alignment ripple where they can't maintain the coverage on our receivers. Be patient, run when it's there.

Yeah he doesn't need to run 10-15 times a game... Just 4 or 5 timely take offs is all it will take to force the defense to account for him .. It will keep the linebackers from getting as much depth on their drops and thus open up the intermediate passing zones for him. Not to mention keep the chains moving..

Dak/McCarthy absolutely need to have run plays for him. The play the refs were in the way and we snapped the ball and they killed it.... dak did a naked bootleg on and he could have ran for days. They simply dont even look to Dak to keep it and run anymore. On his TD run, that DB chasing him was not catching him, so he clearly isnt slow.

Pick and chose the spots, but 2-4 times a game is ok in my book.
Watching the game back, this was easily Daks best game of the year.

Dak running gives the defense more to think about. That can only be a positive.

 

[Hawkeye0202]

A lot of his best games come when he has positive rushing yards.

 

[Captain-Crash]

he has a hard time improvizing, he has to think run before the play starts before he will do it. /shrugs

Quite surprised because on that TD Run, he LOOKED slow.

I even made a comment in the gameday thread that I thought Aikman could have ran it in faster.

I guess the "eye test" is not always correct.

People always claim he's slow and yeah I won't lie he looked slower to me but I also wondered why didn't Derwin James who has great close in speed rock him. He just let up. So maybe he was faster than he looked on TV.

Witten would out run him.

He should practice more with sliding, so he can protect himself better going to the ground. And timing his slide is critical too because depending on officials to call a late hit on the quarterback is wonky nowadays.

Why the exclamation mark? Calm down.....
