im saying theres only so much room at the the top and many young studs keep flowing in...to say hes top 3 now is ridiculous,, hes struggling to break the top 10 now..its huge step up from 16 though to get in the conversation of top 10..

top 4 are elite right now Dak is not Hes Not

Brady, Brees, Rogers, or Mahomes..most likely never be...not knock on him,

then add BenR, Russell, Watson, Rivers,

now we can start looking who fills out the top 10 is it Dak, Wentz, or Goff? Kyler? Baker, or Lamar? Stafford?

see my point there are goig to be arguments or debates on those 2-3 spots left for top10 Dak is finally getting in that conversation for sure ..

then you have the Carrs, Winstons, Mariottas, and Cousins who were with Dak..

Lets let this season play out see where he fits but his 16th ranking after last years hes moved up 5 spots at least already..but top 3 NO WAY!

You realize that Dak has outplayed Brady, Brees, Rivers, Rogers, Russell, Wentz, Goff, Murray, Stafford, Carr, Winston, Mariotta, Cousins and Ben R this year, right? In fact, the only QBs he's NOT outplaying right now are Jackson and Mahommes.

So, as it stands (this season), he's already at #3. can he play his way down? Sure, but, literally (from a QB standpoint), he's in the top three of the league.

So I was looking at Dak's 40-yard scramble - what caught my attention was that Dak saw the Commanders defender on his left, saw him and looked at him the whole way, and yet seemingly took no evasive action - what was up with that?

Granted, there was a Commander to Dak's right, as well, but why did Dak just look at that defender straight in the face and let that defender just take him down, not even trying to adjust his angle so that it would be harder for the defender to catch him?

Well, he might be. I thought Marinelli was calling the plays there. Plus, he's why we have Taco and Hill. I'd like for Wise to be called up.

And just think--two of those incompletions were drops/tipped (one being the INT)

He hit nearly every throw today

Dak was very, very good, but that interception was on him. That would have been a tough catch on a ball thrown high and behind the receiver. Of course, the pressure allowed by Williams, I believe, was primarily to blame for the interception.

He was trying to use hesitation to allow Gallup to cut underneath him and block Norman back to the middle of the field so Prescott could cut to the outside. He knew he wasn't going to outrun Norman so he tried to use the block, but Gallup couldn't make it.

That quarter back Andy Reid's got gunslingin' in cross draw duel pistolero fashion he's fielding, ain't gonna be caught by anybody currently in the league.

You can win games by pecking away along the sidelines, in the flats, short, etc. Until you are willing to throw 20 yards downfield over the middle, you're not a real competitor.

This team looks great right now.

all he does is win, speaking on Dak. He can kill ya with the RPO all night. OR stay in the pocket and throw a dart. I feel very lucky to have him after seeing the trash the rest of the division has at QB.

Although they would have scored 9 out of 10 times, watching Sean Lee completely whiff on a goal line stand made me shed a tear. The last time I shed such a tear was in Larry Bird's final season, although, he went out just as clutch as he came in.
