Good pick up!

Clearly McCarthy values backup QB's more than Garrett did the last few years.

Until the alleged backup becomes the starter.......looks like he can do anything Dakota can do, for 33 million dollars less

He needs to hit more passes like that one to Gallup at 1:15, that's an elite QB pass... he throws way too many high or behind, he'd throw 5+ more TD's a year if he could just learn to hit guys in stride more often. It's so frustrating to see WR's get open and have to slow down or turn around because Dak lacks the accuracy (like the pass at 2:25 with a clean pocket).

You beat me to it by about 3 seconds lol. Completely agree.

Dak is so much better when his feet are set and hes not stepping backwards.

Id like to see him improve on that, and throwing behind guys who are crossing the field. If he gets those two areas squared away he becomes much more accurate.
He's also really good against the Giants when they inexplicably don't cover guys running downfield...

Yep...

If Dak is better then Dalton it’s not by a whole lot and Dalton can make back shoulder throws which is a huge bonus.

When is the last time we saw Dak complete a back shoulder throw?

Ironic because I've been making the point that both are just average QB's... I'd rather just pay Dalton $15 million a year if I'm going to settle for average.

You can pull up any qb in the nfl and find the same.

Not with the frequency that Dak does it, it's been a knock on him going back to college, he struggles with accuracy. I'm not saying he's the only QB in the league that does, but if we're proposing making him the highest paid player in NFL history, I expect a lot more.
