We all had concerns about Dak post ankle injury, but he has been on fire this season from the opening game to the present. It’s clear that we don’t have any idea what Dak’s ceiling is. He continues to improve his accuracy, his QBR, and is a superb leader. I’m so excited to see how great Dak can become. He has improved every season and I’m excited to see how high he can fly!

I'll admit I've been wrong about Dak. I remember Troy saying accuracy was something either you had or didn't have. Perhaps Troy was wrong too. Bottom line I've been pleasantly surprise to be wrong...so far.

Yeah Dak had accuracy issues early on, but I can’t believe how much he has improved and as stated, we have seen his ceiling yet so that’s very exciting!

Plenty werent concerned about Dak.

His accuracy, QBR, and leadership have been great for years. You just didnt see it until now.

To be honest, we don't know what this entire version of the Cowboys ceiling is. We could be looking at the next Dynasty in the NFL.

A lot of people were under the incorrect assumption that Dak’s weaknesses were issues that are not correctable.


But that is false.

Dak’s biggest issue coming into the league was his footwork. His accuracy issues at times were mostly caused by poor footwork.


Dak’s footwork is light years better than when he was a rookie and thus the problems that poor footwork caused are now gone.

We do. This is it. He's in his physical prime with 6 years of experience in the league. He's not a developing player.

MY MAN! His footwork is remarkable compared to years one, and two. It shows! Dig up my early complaints! It was my biggest concern of him. It was awful :laugh:. He's a totally different player now. I'm on board folks.

1) He really never had accuracy issues.

2) I think the level he is playing at currently is his ceiling. You really can't play the position much better.

I think Troy was speaking as to some QB's accuracy, such as himself came naturally (though he did not mean it that way). But others need to work on it, with improved mechanics. Which Dak has of course. However I never though Dak was all that inaccurate as many said. But he has improved.
It was a fan driven think about Dak, that some started on here, because for whatever reason they did not like him.

Anyway. Look at Brady in the 2nd half last night, he was horrible, until that last drive where they needed to run out the clock. But for a while many of his passes were way off.

Dak completion % been close to the same except the drop off in year 2. Which may have had to do with Zeke missing games. Was better last year until his injury. But so far this year, is 5% higher.
