Dak faced the easiest average pass defense DVOA of opponents this season

[JW82]

Who will they blame when the 49ers beat Prescott for the 50th time?

We need some sort of Dak Prescott bingo...

- o line
- defense
- kicker
- The one dropped catch by a WR
- WR apparently ran the wrong route
- offensive scheme
- coaching
- weather
- because he did/didn't wear a glove
- not having home field advantage (ironically Prescott's fault due to his incompetent performances in the losses yet they fail to appreciate this minor point)...

So if they lose to the better team its all the QB's fault no matter how he plays? You and pappydope should run off together maybe you'll find joy together. i'm rooting for you crazy kids.

Annnnd another preteen temper tantrum, complete with "hater" and a Romo reference.

OP posted an actual stat with no commentary.

Grow up Tad.

Consider the source then move on.

And of course we should do our best to encourage their participation here by incessantly engaging them.

Yep, he does that all the time. Not sure if it's intentional or not, but I think he knows what he is doing and that stirs up the forum. He must like it, gives him something to do, I guess.

Dak has had lots of seasons similar to this. Regular season stats aren't the issue.

In 3 weeks, we'll know if anything has changed, or if its the same ole Dak.

And your post is impossibly childish. Comically.

To be fair, he's been doing things he seemed to struggle with until recently. Leading his receivers, throwing to a spot, throwing the ball away (at least a little more than he used to), and running when possible. And I think this is the worst his O-line has ever been for him, as well as the running game.

I feel like Dak has turned the corner. Hopefully, he proves me right.

The Buffalo and San Fran games say the opposite. Other games, too.

He KILLS bad teams at home. Always has.

interestingly in those two games the defense got gashed against the run. more like raped, beat up, bloodied and kicked. I think the defense would actually have been better if they just stayed on the sideline. \
also our run game was horrendous.

yes, Dak sucked too.

"Raging"?

I didn't need to see the DVOA of our opponents to draw a conclusion

We all know that we played some tough pass defenses but mostly weaker ones.

Some good teams and some tomato cans. As usual, the final grade comes after the playoffs.

What a silly biased agenda driven thread.

You can throw out all the numbers when it comes to the Cowboys because week out and week in a Cowboy opponent get sky high for the Boys. Players around the league HATE the Cowboy organization with a passion and the level of their play hits a fever pitch on game day. It's crazy how one week a team's pass rush is flat as a pancake but a week later when the Boys are in town it's their SB week and that non-existent pass rush that the Cowboys are expecting turns into a wildfire after the first whistle. The Boys seem to bring out the best in their opponents...................

 

[jazzcat22]

Need to post the teams DVOA before Dak (or the others) played them for this to be at all relevant.

Why?

• Dak's play against these teams affected their rankings.
• Teams evolve / devolve as the season progresses
• There could have been key injuries that affected the teams defense after Dak played them.

Yeah but that does not fit the narrative and agenda.

 

[Jumbo075]

How much of this is due to how the Cowboys were destroying their competition?

 

[aikemirv]

My question is how do they figure this out? Also why isn’t Hurts on this list? Didn’t we play very similar schedules?

O well the narrative about Dak, and I admit I’ve said it, is he can’t beat good teams. So let’s change the narrative this month. I want nothing more than the Cowboys to hold up the Lombardi trophy at the end of the season and Dak can flip me, and everyone else who said it, the bird.

Just win, screw narratives and screw personal opinions.

Hurts is not on the list because he played us twice. I think we were like 4th weren't we. They were 32nd.

Gotcha, yeah that makes sense

I am sure that is typical of any QB. Nothing wrong with that. Play Buffalo and Miami at home and I bet those games are much different. Win for sure in Miami and I bet Buffalo is a close game.

What's GB's pass defense DVOA rank?

Well Prescott had numerous opportunities to win the game in the play offs last year yet failed to do so. Chance are the Cowboys will have opportunities to win this game again...

99% of them are, Zrin, where you been?
