Problem with most QBs, is you cant change certain mechanics at this point in career, tenure, what comes natural is very hard to coach out of all QBs, not just a Dak affliction.
What must evolve next for Dak, because we have already reached his pinnacle ceiling as far as physical talent, his game will progress when he begins to evolve mentally.
I believe he still has a ceiling in that respect, he needs to have the ability to process the route tree development, and no way can I even lay that blame solely on Dak.
This OL is in a quick rebuild mode, so Dak is going to have to take advantage of understanding how to get a feel for the timing of this offense, he has been bum rushed like Romo.
This OL provides an xtra.05 second, and Dak better find a way to take advantage of it.
He is getting payed to recognize.

But the deficiencies remain

If I were Dak I would pay Payton Manning 1 million to hire him to work with me on reading defences all off season. At the level Dak is, if he works with a Payton twice a week for 5 months going over every single game film he will understand what defences are doing and that will make him a much better QB but of course that requires accepting that you are weak in this area and I don’t think he would be willing to truly accept that

Well the thread has only been up 2 hours. It’s takes us zeke haters ( your words) longer than Dak haters where they literally respond in seconds

and we typically stay on topic unlike many of the Dak haters who can manage turn any thread into Dak criticism
"we" versus "them". Cool.

I agree. But would you rather he say “well I ate a large pizza last night and drank some beers with the boys and then painted the town red”? Lol.

Also. How do you know he’s lying? You measuring his body fat percentage from your laptop at home?

If some random person asks how your kids are doing for example. You gonna tell them “Johnny is failing math and Jack is being a POS.”? Nope. You’re gonna say. Family is going great thanks for asking. So I guess you’re a liar too.

You dont need to go from one extreme to another. Just dont massivley exaggerate like he does day in and day out. Its gets so annoying.

He wasnt in the best shape of his life last year. Thats just one simple example of how i know he is lying. And i dont need to see his body weight. We are talking about the QB position. Someone who says he is in the best shape of his life is talking about his position. He doesnt talk about his physical fitness.

The guy is only trying to sell his brand.

You're operating under the assumption that Dak cares about getting better more than his money.

I wouldn't pin any hopes on that one lol

Seriously i dont think you would.

Dont you think that all of his QB coaches and OCs went with him thru all that stuff day in and day out ? Do you really think Payton knows more then those coaches. No, he does not. The difference is Payton had the ability to translate what coaches told him. And Prescott does not have that talent.

How do i know that? Because Prescott had QB coaches now for 4 years of college. And 6 years in the NFL. After 10 years of good choaching the guy still doesnt know how to read a defense. And dont you think he isnt aware of that ?

Believe me, you wouldnt invest that money too. Chill, tell everybody you are in the best shape of your life - and sign the next advertisment contract.

86 the egos and great idea, but in reality that would never happen, even Manning would be embarrassed.

if I was getting 42 million/y I’d pay someone 1 million to get me another 50 million contract LOL but of course it would take the maturity to accept where you are deficient

It’s “I’m in the best shape of my life this season” season, and Cowboys fans will be happy to know that their quarterback has gotten his membership card.

“A couple of weeks out and I’m in the best shape that I’ve ever been in,” Prescott told reporters during a break in his youth football camp, via Nick Eatman of DallasCowboys.com. “So it’s time to ramp it up and get going.”

Prescott was asked to elaborate on what is said so often by NFL players in the spring and summer that it just becomes predictable noise.

“One, just because of my movement,” Prescott said. “I got a PT in the offseason — someone I’ve worked with throughout the last year. I’ve paid him, made him full-time, my guy. Whether it’s vacation or not, he comes with me. We work on these movements and stretches. I feel like, since the injury, I’ve trained more functional than I ever have. So I see it in my body, I see it the way I move and how the ball is coming out.”

Me too! Awesome
