It really is fascinating in this age of advanced stats that you get such divergent conclusions about similar things. We've also seen stats that the Cowboys are not bad in allowing pressure.

Source? All the sources I have seen show we are bottom of the leauge. Here's another:

Dak needs to get rid of the ball quicker and stop allowing himself to get sacked...

He holds on to the ball for a long time while he second and third guesses himself into a sack

Bingo

Also it’s interesting to note that two of the teams allowing more pressure than us have already beaten us. Makes me wonder how Wilson and Watson are getting it done

I believe the original post its though 5 weeks and the second one was after week 4.

My bad, I meant the week five stats in the 2nd link. I suspect the "sources" of those stats are different. ESPN, in the first post, has their own stats, the guy in the 2nd link took his stats from another source it appears.

Pressure rates are part subjective, it's not as clear cut as say completion percentage or TDs thrown to interceptions.

Oh, yeah they're different sources, but they both tell the same story which lends credibility to both.

They're better QBs.

Seahawks are bottom 5 in yards/game. Seahawks are averaging only 9 yds a game more than us and only 20yds/game more in passing yards. We didn't get consistent pressure on Watson, their OL did a good job this past week or our guys weren't able to generate pressure.

Not sure what this tells us. You can hold the ball and get yourself into pressure. The amount of time he’s protected is all that really matters and every time I see that stat it shows Dallas to be in the upper echelon.
