Dak is clutch

Boyzmamacita · Nov 13, 2016

His QB rating was over 122 today. He's setting the bar pretty high for himself. I hope he keeps it up. How refreshing for us after what we went through last season.

Can't believe I'm saying this but not without skip. SAS and Max both hate the boys

Pretty sure he mentioned First Take specifically because Skip is not there. SAS basically said he might not turn up if the Cowboys win.

Wrong. Him stepping into passes and then still having no zip on them is a great indication how inconsistent his arm strength is.

Inconsistent arm strength?

That does not even make sense, either your arm is strong enough or not.

You are literally making stuff up.

Yeah.. no. Those passes that missed high and wide weren't lacking in zip whatsoever. They were just high and wide. Simples. Not to mention a number of those early incompletions didn't even require bullets, just well placed passes. Touch, not zip.

at this point how can anyone disagree but it is astonishing

There's some Romo lovers out there that would disagree. There's some who STILL want Dak benched in favor of Romo. :facepalm:

Oh, ok, didn't know that. May have to watch

He is so cool and collected. I don't know how he does it. No situation seems to bother him. For a rookie quarterback to consistently play at this high level week after week is unheard of.

Have we ever seen a rookie QB play this well and poised?

What passs are you talking about? I'm not talking about the passes you are. Keep up.

I am talking about passes to the outside to Beasley taking far too long to get there and a defender getting to the ball. Even the pass early that was completed he went noodle arm on.

Many others pointed this out in the game thread, go look it up.

WRONG! You have no idea why you're talking about.

This is idiotic beyond belief. There are QBs who can consistently put zip on a pass while others cannot.

Saying otherwise is, with a lack of a better word, stupid.

What does executive 3 say about Connor Cook?

Dak had to throw... he's had several clutch wins but my goodness... he stuck some tight throws today and is absolutely improving getting more and more confident.

He had some bad throws, but he made several big time throws in tight spots. With the way he prepares, he's going to be freakishly good offseason work on his mechanics.

I don't think we have. It really has been fun to watch!

I'm pretty sure that the majority of Dak's problems throwing come from his feet. He seems to be getting a little sloppy with pressure about getting his feet reset prior to release. Tends to sap power and make accuracy drop. Fixable problem. But no he doesn't have a cannon even under the best conditions.

Dak with another clutch performance with the game on the line. The man just knows how to win. Very, very impressive once again.

One thing I wanted to see most from Dak was how he performed on road against defense in his face. Without question Dak is now leader of this team going forward.

Arm strength is so overrated for an NFL QB. Accuracy is 100 times more important. There have been alot of successful QB's in the NFL over the years that did not have what some would consider arm strength.

I remember during the San Fran game the announcers said something like "his blood pressure never changes". Something to that effect. Kids got ICE for blood

KJJ · Nov 13, 2016

Dak seems to embrace pressure not fold under it which is something you don't see in a rookie QB.

Zman5 · Nov 13, 2016

No more tapping the brakes on Cowboys bandwagon. Dak is clutch and Zeke is the gas pedal.

It really is amazing how well he handles pressure.

Through 9 games, Dak has thrown for 2,339 yards with a 66.8 completion percentage and a 106.2 passer rating. Very impressive indeed!

Dak is clutch
