Dak is unpopular because he simply isn't very good as NFL starting caliber QB's go. He is a mediocre to low end starter and in Dallas everyone expects a great to elite QB. Dak's unpopularity will go away when he learns to throw a pass accurately more than 6 yards , hits wide open receivers more that 10 yards down field with regularity instead of missing them with regularity as is his norm now.It’s now a passing league, high flying league. It’s not “sexy” to run the ball. Smash mouth football is dying and the NFL set-up the game with new rules for Fantasy Footballers / Fan Duelers to make it exciting to throw for 500 yards a game and end up with a final score of 54-51.
The new generation of football fans don’t understand the advantage of a power run offense and controlling the clock. So, Dak isn’t popular because he’s not a gunslinger. It doesn’t matter if you win or lose, fans these days just want to see long bomb throws all day and don’t care if they go 0-16 while doing it.
