Dak has never elevated anyone. Dak get's elevated by others.

Why even ask that question?
Interesting take. Completely wrong. But interesting to say the least. Go do some research before you say things man. Im done with this convo. I have a hospital to visit.

Not as interesting as your "Zeke for 1,000" take.

Heart over brain, my friend.

Have you seen Allen's play over his career? LOL. Before Diggs got there. He really wasnt very good and many were considering him a bust. This year he has been a roller coaster too. Last year was the first time he played lights out for an entire season.

Understand the general point of your comment but once you show the kind of talent he has shown & you get yourself to a conference championship game one year & OT of the divisional round the next (against KC), you're going to have a longer leash than a guy with one playoff win and a whose last playoff performance yielded a passer rating of 69.3.

4 games left. 716 yards currently.
He only needs to average 71 YPG the rest of the way.

I highly doubt he does anything against the Eagles and he'll probably sit the last game if there's nothing to be gained unless they use it for stats like they did last year.

He had 81 against the eagles earlier this year. And typically plays his best against them. We will see sir. Again I am on my way to the hospital. This bet isnt really on my mind currently. Cheers!

The Eagles did the opposite of us and brought in guys to better their run defense since then.

Hope all is well.

He needs to hand it off more in those situations. The most dangerous teams are those with nothing to lose. They can be hyper aggressive and if they get burned, it is what it is. Situational football is real.

Total interceptions always need to be looked at in the context.

What does a player do with his passing opportunities....
Burrow, Cousins and Dak all have 9 ints, but
Burrow has 27 TDs
Cousins has 20 TDs
Dak has 14 TDs

On a per game basis, Dak may even be leading the league in ints
To be fair, this normally has not been a big issue for him.

Dak is only 4 INTS away from leading the NFL despite missing 5 games.

I would be shocked if any other actual starting QB is throwing more on a per game basis.

The same thing happened in those games too. You didn't watch those games either? Are we sure "silvernblue" doesn't mean the Patriots color? Lol

If I were a true fan and missed the game, I would watch every highlight I could so I would know what happened in the game. Maybe that's just me. :)

Yeah, 9 INTs were just oopsie whoopsies and everyone else was at fault.

Everyone credible saying it was Dak's fault for the majority of his turnovers, but Cowboyszone for some reason saw things differently.

I think Ryan's 13 in 11 games is tops
More importantly, is the differential.
As I pointed out, 9 ints is not many if you have nearly 30 TDs passes.

Early on in the 2019 season, he was doing a lot of what he was doing now before being reigned in (11 TDs to 6 INTs in 5 games). 2020 he had 9 TDs to 4 INTs in 5 games, and this season he's back to how he was looking early on in 2019 and how he looked in 2020. I would say 2021 is more of an outlier recently.

QBs really need to be at 2 or 3 to 1 in TDs:Ints.
14:9 is nowhere near that.
Needs to clean it up!

Everyone credible?? :lmao::lmao::lmao::lmao:

I would take HOFers, future HOFers and ROH players advice before I would take Risen, MountaineerCowboy, leebalir, MysteryIceGuro and other known Dak/Cowboy haters advice. But that's just me. :)

And I didn't say all of his INT's either. You know which ones I'm talking about, or you're just like those anti-Dak/Cowboy haters I mentioned.

Right...skill and talent makes the ball deflect off the wr's hands.

Did you miss the dimes on the 98 yard drive last game?
I noticed the majority of those plays were in the middle of the field. Check downs to zeke for good yardage and then a few to Schultz. Only outside throw was to N.Brown , it’s a dangerous area to throw, but if Texans are playing quarters coverage there is a sweet spot between the middle linebacker and two safety’s

It's a combination of bad decision making and trying to make passes that he just doesn't have the skill and talent to make.

Mahomes has changed the QB game the way Curry changed the NBA when it comes to 3 pointers.

When you're not as talented as those guys but try to play like those guys you just look foolish.

Dak is like the David Lee Roth of QBs.

Paid well but insanely overrated.
