You mean against that backup safety playing corner (Igwebuke, or something) and other backup safety (Countess) that they picked up that week? The corner basically ran out of bounds and the safety was a day late.
Against backups to actual backups, Dak managed 9 whole points in the first three quarters that day.
offense and defense were both bad....make no mistakes...4 drives in the middle of the game totaling 8 minutes....that's an awful offensive performance....in the first half alone, they had 4 drives for a total of 10 minutes..... that's not on defense. you have the ball. hold it, score. something.....you can't blame the defense for that.
I don't disagree. I am not saying any individual....but just that the offense sucked against the rams
I wasn't saying you think it's a problem, I was saying it's an inaccurate description of Prescott - unless you're only talking about the first three quarters of games. But of course, to do that would be to ignore fully half of what sets him apart.
I didn't define the term or invent this use of it, but I'm guessing it works the same way that an 8-point margin is commonly referred to as a "one possession game."
Is it Dak that is conservative or is it the play-calling?
Well I mean, the first three quarters of games is the majority of the time. So, primarily, yes he's dink and dunk lol.
There's no article involved here. In researching the two QB, I found an interesting contrast and made a tweet about it. Then someone made this thread about my tweet. "Late & Close" is exactly as I described above: margin of 8 points or less in the 4th qtr or OT. If you've looked at passing splits over the last 15 years or so, that's how the "late & close" split is defined. It's kind of a generic split.
If this description were more accurate, you wouldn't have to qualify it.
Understood. That's why I said I'd be glad to get you more specific information.
