49ers game convinced Prescott he has to use his legs more

Really? Brady, Mahomes, Rodgres? I was a big Dak supporter on here. He lost me until he proves he can consistently beat good teams. Stop being such a homer and admit he struggles against good teams.

So when a good defense holds those guys in check it's something else but if they hold Dak in check then it's cause for panic. Dak has lit up plenty of good teams in his career. He destroyed the Eagles D last year.. He's pretty much been the ONLY QB to light up the Jets defense this season. He holds the distinction of having lit up Belichick's defense for the most yards he has ever had to endure. Dak is far from perfect.. but as Micah said.. he gets way more crap than he should from the mediots and the fans. They minimize any triumphs he achieves and highlight any failures. It's completely unfair and not very logical to be frank.

I’ve been screaming for him to run for a while, but having your ankle/foot turned completely sideways can have an effect on you.

Yeah the dude is human.. so it was naturally going to take a while for him to be willing to risk that again. It also bears stating that ownership and the coaching staff were pounding it in his head not to run as well. I think after the 49er game he and McCarthy and Schottie sat down and Dak told them "Look I'm going to run the rest of this season. Figure it out."

I've said it before and I'll say it again, Dak's pocket awareness has been awful most of his career and much of that is his desire to be a pocket passer... in today's nfl the only chance a qb has to be successful is stepping up in pocket when it collapses and finding ways to avoid pressure and make plays.

Dak excels when he moves around and takes off, hopefully he realizes that in order for our team to have a chance, he needs to use his awareness and legs much better... If he can do that, I believe we will have a better chance at sustaining long drives and beating the better teams.

The Jets? Brady won 7 SBs. Don’t try to compare. How many playoff games has Dak starred in? One? How many stinkers? Just stop it.
