He gots smart-tech orthopedic missiles, laser guidance stepping, gravitational step-through, enhanced toe anti-cramping...
It even emails his acquaintances he doesn't like birthday cards!

The card thing is the real perk.
But did Dak call Micah???

We all know Andy Dalton called Justin Fields.

Carson Wentz definitely called Sam Ehlinger!!

It has nothing to do with Carr. It is to showcase just how shockingly bad his accuracy is for an NFL QB This is our "Elite" QB.

This explains why a good portion of his throws aren't on target. Always just high or low or behind his targets. Forcing them to adjust and drop or lose yards because they had to slow down.

Really strange take. Not one actual piece of data or objective fact whatsoever. Complete conjecture, the CowboysZone special.

“Over at Pro Football Reference, they’ve done the heavy lifting by charting every quarterback’s throws and determining whether the throw was “on target” or a “bad throw.” For reference, in 2019, Drew Brees led the NFL in both categories. He recorded an on-target percentage of 84.1% and a bad throw percentage of just 10.7%.

Bad throw and on-target percentage don’t include throwaways or spikes.

Coming in last among qualified quarterbacks in on-target percentage was Jameis Winston. Thirty interceptions and poor vision will do that for you. The player with the worst bad throw percentage was Aaron Rodgers at 21.7%. Now, I know what you’re thinking, Aaron Rodgers is one of the best in the NFL, and that’s accurate, but there are times where his gunslinging mentality comes back to bite him. He had the third-highest bad throw percentage in 2018 as well.

Aaron Rodgers is a great quarterback. We know this. However, it’s important to note that Prescott has been more accurate. Those are the facts.

Dak Prescott was seventh in the NFL in on-target percentage at 77.6% and sixth in the NFL in bad throw percentage, all the while finishing fifth in intended air yards. His 9.3 intended air yards per attempt was behind only Matthew Stafford, Jameis Winston, Ryan Tannehill, and Russell Wilson. Stafford, Winston, and Wilson were in the bottom ten of bad throw percentage while only Ryan Tannehill had a better bad throw percentage than Prescott.

By on-target percentage, Winston and Stafford were again in the bottom five.

Despite an increase of nearly two intended air yards per attempt, Dak Prescott’s bad throw percentage improved from 17.3% in 2018 to 14.8% in 2019.”

Nice rant. Feel better? Great story-telling. Disney is looking for script writers.

The problem with your numbers is they dont take into account the importance of the throw. Rodgers can play like avg all game but get you the win at the end when it counts against GOOD teams. Rodgers is much more capable of beating a good defense than Dak. Stats dont tell the story about comparing players.

Dak may think he could play now, but really he shouldn't. The healing time now is to strengthen what's healing so it's not as easy to reinjure as it would be now. He may feel fine, but these things take time. I've no doubt he'll be ready to go game one though.
