Dak’s stats during our three game win streak

[Corso]

This thread is hilarious!!! Thanks guys! I got my smile today.

Because Romo failed when the game mattered most. That's on him, stop making excuses. He had an opportunity and screwed the pooch.
That team was good enough to at least go to the Super Bowl.

I'll post when I want, stop acting high and mighty.

They were good enough yet they were a disaster before he came in. He was already sacked 16 times in 6 games.

You said you wouldn’t post with me again and you were done, while you played high and mighty. There is nothing high and mighty about me. So condescending to me when you last left and now back at it again..

 

[School]

No it clearly wasn’t.. if it clearly was, you wouldn’t have needed a tweet from Witten to say it was...

I'm glad we agree it was an RPO now.

I wasn't even trying to argue with you initially, was just pointing it out.

And I said no it wasn’t and provided you the actual play. And my post which you said it was RPO was in response to me basically saying it was successful because the defense totally keyed in on Zeke and Linehan drew up beautiful play-design, of which RPO doesn’t change and Dak didn’t do anything but run the play as designed.

Instead of you going directly to Witten, you tried to explain it to me based on ‘run or pass blocking’ and taking it ‘step by step’.

You had no clue and then ran to Witten..

Or I could see that going back and forth with you would be fruitless, so why not just turn to something everybody can agree with?

I appreciate you posting the play, but it wasn't me who needed to watch and learn from it.

How does one learn from watching a play by posting
a tweet from Witten, especially since you were just telling me going to walk me “step by step” through it based on the film?

I said how does run or pass blocking indicate RPO, when that is what play-action is built on?

Where is this “step by step” response from the film?
You had no response and searched for a post from Witten where he says it was RPO.

So teach me Yoda from the film.. Show me where it being RPO changed any of the original points, regarding play design by Linehan and the defense focusing in on Zeke and Dak having to make a simple pass.

Newsflash - they made it to the playoffs vs. and Romo failed. Stop blaming things that happened BEFORE the post season, lmao.
You will literally take any angle to not point the finger at Romo for bombing.

What you're doing is textbook example of false equivalence "well, Romo threw bad passes just like Dak does at times," which is just an attempt at to appeal to some generic similarity (e.g. "all QBs miss some passes") to remove criticism of Dak by making him just like everyone else.

Regardless of how history views Romo (good or bad), it's not remotely debatable that he is better at the primary aspect of playing QB......passing the ball.

What you are doing is posting nonsense. AGAIN.
It is not at all false equivalence to say Romo had glaring weaknesses early in his career.
He very much did.

What is clear is Romo fan boys and girls who were not even Cowboys fan's prior to him simply do not care.
I can make an allowance for Ben Rogers because Romo is his golf and pick up hoops buddy.
His stupid statements are at least grounded in a loyalty to a friend.

Romo's first two starting season which included 26 regular season games. He threw 32 INT. More than 1 per game.

But those were good overall season and DAL made the playoffs.
Romo in those 2 playoff games?
35 of 65 for 390 yards and 2 TDs, 1 INT and 2 fumbles lost.

That also occurred in his 3rd and 4th NFL seasons.....

Romo like all young QBs had strengths and weaknesses same as Dak does now.
He eventually built up his strengths and reduced his weaknesses.
That's called common maturation......

The 2nd TD was a 28-yard throw.

“Short throw” LOLLLLL

18% of his yards over 3 games came on 2 passes. Think about those objective facts.

 

[jterrell]

18% of his yards over 3 games came on 2 passes. Think about those objective facts.

And entering the game 2 weeks ago DAL had the least YAC of any team in football.
Hilarious how this works.
You guys wanna remove YAC now but never factored it in before as a reason his yardage totals were low.

This is how QBing works.
Brees has more YAC than any QB in football.
That's why he is on target to be MVP as opposed to all his 8-8 seasons.

Streetwise is generally a good poster.
But he has a huge disconnect on Romo.
Its like he only remembered the bad plays vs the 10x more that were good
Completely forgets all the comeback winning drives too, and says comments like he failed when it counted most.
Does not add up

And FWIW I WAS bringing it up as I noted the WR corps was the teams largest most glaring weakness.

Now it is clearly not any more and the team is winning. Amazing how that works.

Loving the three game win streak

I do think the 90 yard TD that had 63 yards after catch and 40 yard TD to Cooper that had about 35 after catch (after DB fell down) will massively help the stat line.
But I’ll take it

Romo's first two starting season which included 26 regular season games. He threw 32 INT. More than 1 per game.

Another factor is that Dak is doing it all on the field and going through the learning curve on the field. At the same time in his career (11 games into year three), Romo had six starts and Aaron Rodgers had zero.

 

[DakBringMeBack]

I love how when people can’t dispute facts like stats; they begin to denounce the stats shouldn’t count because they didn’t like the trajectory of the pass lol.

 

[khiladi]

They made it to the playoffs with Romo BEFORE the post-season. They weren’t making it to the playoffs with Bledsoe BEFORE the post-season. Parcells has his boys flying down to the stadium to give him support in his state of depression.

But congratulations, you win.. Romo lost the game as a FG holder and NOT the QB, if it makes you feel better. I don’t think when discussing Romo, we are referring to his job as a FG holder though..

 

[Kaiser]

18% of his yards over 3 games came on 2 passes. Think about those objective facts.

And they weren't moving the ball otherwise? Think about that.

Dallas is near the bottom of the league in RAC so Dak hasn't been helped by it overall. Think about that .

Drew routinely hits players in stride allowing for YAC. Can you say the same for Dak? MR. I need to see a player open before I throw the ball and then often deliver it late or inaccurately.

Is there any 4 game stretch for Brees where 2 throws amount to 18% of his total yardage? Two. Throws.

This comparison is awful.

Which is an advantage for him over Rodgers and Romo, not some kind of detriment. It’s weird to me that Dak slobberers think that sitting on the bench doing nothing is some kind of advantage over not playing and getting experience and developing skills. I think they have some warped view of what happens during the week in the NFL. Nobody cares about the backup QBs, they get almost no reps and no attention. You would think they were attending some football academy or something.

 

[Kaiser]

I love how when people can’t dispute facts like stats; they begin to denounce the stats shouldn’t count because they didn’t like the trajectory of the pass lol.

And Dak played half the season with one of the worst WR corps in the league - and THE worst TE group. So the baseline they are working off is skewed to begin with.
