The question I have is, 'How does he not know this is the third game this season in which he didn't run?' In fact, he thinks it might be the only time in his career.

I went through this on another post and pasted the link to the article, I'll do it for you too because I'm a nice guy. Also, leaders don't cast blame, they do what needs to be done in the background so it doesn't happen again.


Dak a female dog for that

Jaguars game - against what was at the time still considered a very good defense. 11 rushes for 80 yards and a great offensive performance.

It’s extremely difficult to stop a qb like dak and a rb like zeke in the read option. Especially when dak is capable of passing the ball better than a lot of read option qbs.

I don’t get why we’re trying to turn him into a pure pocket passer. As long as he shows the ability to slide and not take hits why aren’t we running him more I have no clue.

I think if Dak would learn to step up in the pocket he would find both escape yardage and completions which would add to his effectiveness. I also think he should hold that quarterback draw just a beat longer before he takes off.

What's it going to be then, eh?

Dak is right. Time for him to step up.
I am kind of excited he said this.

He can run. He has proven that when he is a threat out to run, he is a more efficient quarterback.

The Tampa LBers save Lavonte David are a pretty pedestrian lot. I would hope he looks to that in real time situations.

I have given up on expecting Linehan to exploit weaknesses.

Dak's best attribute seems to be blaming others for his own shortcomings. You don't need a coordinator to tell you to take off iff a play breaks down or to make time for the receivers to scrmable. Well, you don't if you're a competent QB.

He didn't blame anyone. He actually blamed himself lol.

If you think Tebow and Dak are of the same caliber? He was right. You have crashed your head far too many times.
you're right Tebow didn't get scared. Big differences. Did Tim get scared for half of one season and half of another one before he quit seeing "ghosts". :lmao::lmao::lmao::lmao::lmao:

Thank you, Dak. This is PRECISELY what I've been asking for more of from you. Please DO run more. It helps our offence because it helps with the WRs and gives Zeke a bit more running room if defences are worried about Dak running.

Nothing that Dak says will ever be right with some people. Acting like a Pure Pocket passing QB is the only version of QB that should be in the NFL these days. Moving the pocket, roll outs, extending plays are the strengths of some NFL QBs/offenses and not just Dak's. Even Wentz would sometimes run if a play broke down. Rodgers will run/extend plays with his feet, if a play breaks down. But, Dak gets hate if he suggests doing it.

Which is interesting considering that a LOT of QBs run now, especially college ones. In fact, with the speed that defences now have, it's important for a QB to be able to pull it down and run.

LOL...ok man by the time your done you will have changed how the QB position should be played in the NFL...and all this to excuse inept Dak once again...jeez....
Running QB that have limited passing abilities are defenses dog-meat.....51 sacks and counting.....

Tell that to Aaron Rodgers and Cam Newton (disclaimer, in no way am I comparing Dak to Aaron Rodgers as that would be absolutely moronic, nor am I comparing him to Newton, though that is a bit feasible).

Right, just another lists of things that some will use to hate on Dak for their bias against him. So, he'll never be able to do or say anything right. But, it's another lists of things in which many other QBs do in the NFL in the present day game. Yet, just like when it comes to Dak and other QBs who do similar things. They bash Dak for him, discredit him for it. While, they will praise other QBs who do the same.

Wouldn't be as much hostility if a QB they supported decided to use his feet to create plays.

Yup, I'd hate to see some of these users when our next QB runs with the ball like Tua probably will. Bloody hell! Getting on at Dak for wanting to run more? What the bloody hell else will they complain about?
