Isn’t it amazing how Dak can toss 30 yard passes with touch and accuracy when he has a receiver who can separate downfield? Say it ain’t so!!! Isn’t that something he’s supposedly unable to do? Or was I dreaming?
I get that we want to discredit unfair criticism of Prescott, but there was a lot that went right for Dallas on that play. Gallup did not have separation until the corner inexplicably let him go (I believe he said the sun was in his eyes.) That will happen at times, but if the corner had continued to run with Gallup, that pass might have been deflected because Dak didn't get it out ahead of Gallup.
Sometimes the circumstances help a play turn out to be successful. I don't think we should take this one play as proof that we've got receivers who can separate and make a pass like that work.
So, if you saw a receiver flat-out beating a defensive back who made no mistakes and a quarterback throwing a pass that couldn't have been stopped if the corner hadn't goofed, then yes, you were dreaming.
