Here me out before clicking reply and calling me "delusional" or "stupid" or any of the other things said to everyone trying to be positive on here.
There have only been 12 different 5000 yard passing seasons, a mark Dak barely missed. He did however put up the 21st highest yard total in league history and only gets hate for it.
He gets a lot of hate around here for "garbage time" stats. I disagree with this notion.
Dak got a lot of garbage time stats, yes. I contend that this is true for every QB, even those 5k seasons. You cant tell me that every one of Manning's record 5477 yards was meaningful. Every year, every QB has garbage time stats and good stats in losing games. It's always true.
But no one discredits Bree's multiple 5k yard campaigns, even though much of it came in the form of blow outs in garbage time, for example.
Basically, this board wants to give no credit to Dak for his stats and I think that's dumb. Garbage time or not, he earned those yards, and thats why he has them. People are just angry that his stats happened in an 8-8 season, as though Dak is to blame for a useless special teams and an underachieving defense. If we had won 10 games, suddenly everyone's perception would be more kind.
Thoughts?
its not about yards I dont ca;ll those yards garbage yeards as they do count but I judge Dak on the yards and points he left ofn the field down the strecth..
I judge him by how he plays
bringing the team back after being down at the hal=0
winning a game against a better then .500 tea down the stretch=0(rams all run game , doesnt count)
how many wide open WRs he thrw off target throws to that cost us those games
im solely judging him on the losses he could have prevented,,you cant pay elite money to a qb who doesnt show up in the bigger games against the best opponents..
so 2019 Yards dont matter, points against the lessor teams dont count..
WINS count and we fell one short of winning the division and he had 4 games NE, CHI, BUFF, and Philly2 to show me he can take one of these games and put it on his shoulders but instead he played some of his worst football of his career in those games IMO..its not how you start its how you finish, he started great finished poor..
so im a bad fan pointing out facts??
its was scott Linehan's fault, then garrets, then jerry for not have a good WR for him, now KM for not calls the right plays for dak..lmao how much coddling does he need?
