I love these posts that do not take into consideration what was in the video.
AKOYE takes the route tree and finds Dez winning of the best corners in the NFL on them. It was all of them plus a double move.
The narrative has been that Dez can only run 3 routes. Sharpe/Bayless have been bringing in corners that have faced Dez and had them feed into the narrative. AKOYE then shows Dez beating those corners on routes other than the 3 that supposedly Dez does not know how to run.
Another narrative has been that Dez only gets third stringers nowadays. That is debunked with proof.
And the proof is overwhelming. He shows plays one right after the other for 22+ minutes. I didn't count it but it is at least 130 plays with a conservative 10s per play estimate.
The truth is not in the middle because no one wants to talk about Dak's poor downfield accuracy and reads. No they want to bag on him and act like he should get a paycut.
Dez is going to go to another team and we are going to pay a guy who cannot throw accurate deep balls $25m AAV. It's sickening.
What is this rambling?
The truth is in the middle. Dez has some issues of his own creation. To deny that is absurd. It wasn't Dak that forced him to have his worst year in terms of drops last year. If Dez was so good on route running, why waste time going to a WR "specialist" to work on his route running skills?
This isn't an excuse for Dak, who I tend to agree, is a very risky proposition at this point to think is the long term future at QB here.
