I disagree. The play doesn't stop once the defender gets through or around the OL. As an example, when Eli escaped a sack to throw the helmet catch to David Tyree, he was in the grasp of a defender until his OL came back and hit him, allowing Eli to throw a game changing reception.
Conversely, when Dak was trying to escape a sack, his OL decided to molest him, and the official called it a sack.
This is a good example of why stats are often flawed, and
they just dont mean much when evaluating a player.
Football can be quite complex, and it is a team sport, and the qb doesnt win or lose games by himself.
They do however have a big effect on the games.
The only way to fairly compare dalton to dak, is to have dalton play 2-3 games as the starter.
Even that would be slanted, as dak knows the players much better and has played with most for years.
This pocket awareness stat is probably flawed in the way it is compiled.
It looks like we will only get to see dalton a little and with non starters during PS, since with only 2 games starters like dak may play more
than usual.
Dak is not going to let anyone else come in and play qb, that is why I knew no way he would hold out, he doesnt want any
qb playing but him, as he knows that is how he got the job in first place.
