Dak has "It"

[ThatJerryKid]

That's all we heard from everybody for about 15 months. Can someone tell me what "It" is? Thank you.

The ability to win 13 games as a rookie.

He certainly has the right mentality, an excellent work ethic, and natural leadership ability. That's three "its" I can think of.

What he does not have, at least not yet, is the ability to overcome sub-par line play, horrible receiver play, and predictable playcalling from his coaches.

Dak has to be a lot better, but he's also a scapegoat at the moment. This team's problems run far deeper than a struggling sophomore quarterback.

The ability to win 13 games as a rookie.

Including 11 in a row. And win offensive rookie of the year after being drafted in the 4th round. Having 4 INTs vs 20+ TDs. Playing very well in the playoffs and leading a scoring drive late in 4th only for his defence to let him down.

Oh but he's had a bad stretch where's he's been sacked 10+ times from behind so whys he good again?

A refreshing dose of common sense. Thank you!

“It” - checking down for a 3 yard gain?

Last year he had a knack of making a play just st the right time. Average if not below average most of the game, but some how got it done
The opposite of Romo. Most of us got carried away with the Dak band wagon. Including me. He seem to have that IT factor for winning.

I believe the condensed definition of “it” is: the ability to hand off to a 1st team All Pro RB and throw 5 yard passes to a wide open Witten/Beasley behind the protection of three 1st team All-Pro OL while playing a rotten schedule featuring 1-15, 2-14 and 3-13 teams.

I don't think Zeke would appreciate being called "it." But that's what Dak had all of last year, and it sure made him look special.

He was an amazing Aaron Rodgers pass shy of pulling off that 4th quarter playoff comeback, too.

If only he could be a rookie again and remove all the film on him.

You pick the weirdest hills to get on, man.

Dak beat teams with winning records last year: Packers, Steelers, Ravens, Commanders, Vikings, Buccaneers, Lions.

At the time they played them, the Ravens and Buccaneers had top five defenses (Baltimore was number one in November 2016).

He was second in QBR just three games ago.

His QBRating was around 98 just three games ago

Through the first 8 games he had accounted for 20 total TD.

Maybe not Tony Romo but pretty solid for a second year QB I would say.

Let's see if he can rebound from this setback

Figures, you are one of those that holds silly notions about wins.

Dak was long overdue for a slump of some kind. It happens. Some people want a quarterback to paint sixteen perfect masterpieces every season of his career.

Unless they clone Tom Brady, I don't think that's a realistic request.

Come on now. He went into Pittsburgh and Green Bay last year, two places where the home teams rarely lose, and made some huge throws in pressure packed situations.

Put a SH.. in front of IT and it will describe his play

Due for a slump?.......when was Romos 3 game slump? Too funny
