So if the OL is to blame for this week even though he got sacked only once, what about the credit for the first three games for giving him all the time in the world? Trubisky also lit up the Commanders.
Dak was 9-21 going into the second half against the Dolphins. Dak was high and behind on a lot of throws against the Giants, while WRs were running wide open. Moore had to go up-tempo to move the ball and he had to do the same thing against the Saints in the third. Dak struggled against the Commanders for significant period of time when facing pressure, but then the OL started to dominate and Norman got burned like he’s been getting burned all year.
Against the Saints in the fourth, he threw behind Cobb on a crucial drive despite Cobb being open and if Cooper didn’t get his hand in on a comeback route, it was going right into the hands of Lattimore.
Dak has just made the throws he should have been making for two years in this offense, while being given all sorts of time.
It’s all going to come down to progressions and anticipation when he doesn’t have as much time as he has been getting.
