I haven’t written a post in a while, but seeing comments that continue to reflect ignorance about Dak Prescott’s performance the past two years has spurred me into action.
I humbly ask that people read the whole article and digest it before sticking with their anti-Dak beliefs.
A few inconvenient facts for those that believe Dak isn’t a franchise QB.
COMPLETION PERCENTAGE
Rookie year: 67.8
Year two: 62.9
It fell off a bit with more pressure and sacks given up by the offensive line and the absence of Zeke for six games, combined with some pretty horrendous game planning by coaches. Also, the fact that Dez was no longer a true number one receiver was a massive problem, because he was still demanding excessive targets and getting them.
That second year percentage for Dak was still better than Carson Wentz or Jared Goff.
YARDS PER COMPLETION
If you believe Dak is only good for short passes, your beliefs are wrong. Sorry, but the facts clearly blow up that myth.
COMPLETED AIR YARDS
Rookie year: 7.5
Second year: 6.6
His rookie year, Dak had an average completion percentage through the air that was higher than Tom Brady, Carson Wentz or Drew Brees.
As everyone knows, the offensive line had protection issues in 2017. Dak had less time to throw. Zeke was gone for six games.
