Him and Cobb both have had untimely drops.
Drops are a recipe for INTs too.

I don't see an issue with the drops. It's hard to tell but from the throws that Dak has made that turn into interceptions they appear to be behind. Yes, Amari had his hands on it but a bunch of his throws are behind the receivers. His bad throws are almost always behind not overthrown or low...Dak has an issue IMHO.
He needs to get better on the drops for sure. If not for the int, his production outweighs the drops.
Dak has to start getting the ball in front of his receivers though!
Dak's biggest problem however, is him in the pocket with pressure. He is very slow to get out of the pocket, very stiff and does not move his feet well. Still does not move up in the pocket - still out the back!
Is he Tony Romo's , Dez Bryant. It's not dropping footballs it's when and where you drop those footballs. It's not when you fumble it's when and where
The pick created by Cobb a few games a ago was more a product of Dak’s poorly placed ball.
I thought Dak’s throw to Cooper was much better placed; I put it squarely on Cooper for that INT.
Best pass I've ever seen Prescott make was in the Miami game to Cooper down the middle. Drop
Many of the passes Cooper dropped were behind or over his head. That's said if you are able to get your hands on the ball you should catch it. Especially as a #1 receiver.
It was a bit more behind than that. Only reason it hit there is he contorted his body to adjust to it. I hear you on that. But that's what you are taught as a receiver since peewee football. If you are relying on the QB to make you look good with lerfeperf placed balls then you are not a great receiverI never liked this saying, but the pass Cooper dropped hit him just left of the center point in his chest. He should’ve caught that. Again, I’m not worried about it because it happens. Cooper played a helluva game yesterday.
I don't. Dak had no pressure, a clean pocket, and a wide open middle of the field. It was a 15 yard pass, behind a receiver moving full speed in the other direction. Had he thrown an accurate pass and hit Cooper in stride, that's a touchdown. Instead, he threw it behind Cooper, who had to twist his entire body around while moving away from the ball to try and catch it.
You can say all day Cooper should have caught it, fine. But I'm going to say all day Dak should have put it where it needed to be. There's no reason for that ball to be behind the receiver when the QB has no pressure and a clean pocket.
Pretty easy to spot a total clown who doesn’t know football when they blame Dak for the 1st INT.
“But the ball was slightly behind the Pro Bowl WR causing him to slow down slightly before getting both hands on the ball with plenty of space between him and the CB!!!”
“Twist his entire body around”. LOL the ball hit him on his backside shoulder. He didn’t have to twist his entire body around.
The defender wasn’t in the equation because Dak made a good read and fired in a very catchable ball to an open receiver. A high school receiver would be expected to catch that pass.So tell me, Mr. Football Knowledge, why couldn't a quarterback with a clean pocket under no pressure make a 15 yard pass leading his receiver? I mean, a good quarterback knows that leading the receiver with a wide open middle of the field takes the defender out of the equation, no?

Keep exposing yourself.
