Chris Collinsworth brought up something we've all been thinking

[dogberry]

..There was few times where it was 3rd n 6 or 5. As he dropped back, you could the top area opening up. All he had to do was run and slide, for 1st down.

I think this guy is scared for life out there. Lost his mojo somewhere.

On lesser note, when Purdy realized same situation. He took off and ran. Outcome, kept chains moving.

Interesting, Purdy has a faster ten yard split.

I would rather have Mayfield and his $36m deal than Dak and his $60m deal. $24m would cover keeping Pollard and Biadasz, as an example.

Overall, I would say that there are 25 QB's in the NFL nowadays that if you put them with a good coach, line, running back and receivers will look pretty good. Dak certainly among them. That wasn't the case years ago. I stand by my statement that positional scarcity isn't there anymore. Unless you have your hands on a Mahomes or maybe a few others, paying the big bucks isn't worth it.

You know we have 23M on the cap...right? So it's not a money issue

And I do remember most on this board were ready to move on from Biadasz but now he is an upgrade.

We could have had Henry for only 3M more....

It's not a money issue.

It's a GM issue.

There is an elitenor two. There is a few high level ones and then there is take your pick

And there are many on this board that say without an elite or very high level QB we don't have a chance. They claim it's the only way

He knows this is going to be his last big fat paycheck and he has already pocketed it, why bother?

Maybe Jerry just legit hates the fanbase? I can't think of any other reason he would sign this guy to the deal he did. Just blows my mind.

I'm glad Collinsworth pointed out how Dak just does not look like the same player this year on that final drive where he rolled out of the pocket barely able to throw the ball away.

Collinsworth said he that the Old Dak would have been able to have taken off and run with it cresting some positive yards.

But Dak is so immobile now.

Looks slow and even uncoordinated with how he turns his body.

He can't create any extra time anymore or take off and run for at least 5 or 6 yards.

This is very concerning.

Can't run when your panic attacks make you poop your pants................Then again with such arm talents and superb pocket awr, we are blessed that Jerry has told him to stay in the pocket......Eat your heart out Dan Marino!!!
