Dak is currently the most sacked QB in the NFL

[blueblood70]

40% are his fault holding the ball to long or turning into the rush..its frustrating to see him just give away those yards instead of throwing it away..

Look at this play https://www.dallascowboys.com/video/dak-cooks-up-a-wild-scrambling-touchdown

It shows what I think is a tendency that the defenses are leveraging. He rolls back vs stepping up. The coaches need to work with him on this. While on this play it worked most times he is rolling back into where the OL pushes the defense who are rushing. So he rolls right into the defenders. This is something that coaches can help him correct.

The o line is currently ranked 8th in the league. Dak has a tendency to hold the ball for far too long (30th in the league for time to throw). The line is good. Dak needs to get rid of the ball quicker.

If your receivers are covered down field what's he supposed to do? What he tries to do...by time sometimes he needs to be throwing it away though for sure. He's a young QB with terrible coaches...I want so badly to see what Dak can do with a legit coaching staff, it hurts so bad knowing this kid could be so much more than he is.

This is a mixture of problems from scheme, Dak, and the o-line. I don't think any of them are more "at fault" than the other but it's becoming a huge mess.

OL not the best at pass protection, Dak not the best at getting ridding the ball. Not a particularly good combination. Both need to be addressed by the coaches.

Throw in that either we don't run hot routes or Dak doesn't see them. The cameras have at least shown a few times where Dak was sacked this season where we had no one open because we were running routes that take time to develop. When teams are blitzing, you've got to give your QB a quick read, such as a slant.

Yeah and all the routes will be run 15 yards and turn around when it's 3rd and 2. Playcalling and scheme is a total joke.

Its 100% Daks fault...he has zero pocket awareness

 

[guag]

I'm actually surprised that he doesn't have the most yardage lost since it seems like he loses at least 10-12 yards on every sack.

 

[cowboy_ron]

I truly think it's more on Dak hanging onto the ball too long instead of getting rid of it than it is the OL........I know the OL has failed some as well, but you can't go for the HR all the time......sometimes you have to foul a few off till the right opportunity presents itself.

 

[Cydios]

He makes camp fires back there.

I think it’s more than coincidence that the leaders in sack percentage are largely mobile quarterbacks.

 

[MCMetal69]

Is it just me or do we never have "hot reads" when the opposition blitzes ? Dak & the O-Line are far from perfect but the play calls and designs are far more responsible.........................

LEADING IN ALL THE STATS BABY

I am sure it is the OL at fault lmao.

Its amazing how short the windows are in the nfl these days. We were lauded for doing such a great job building an offensive line from the ground up and that era is over already. Lasted a mere 3 years or so. Think about it, in 3 years from now we will have a terrible linebacking core, thats just how ephemeral things are in the nfl these days.

 

[Keithfansince5]

Guarantee at least 20 of them is him running into pressure

The other are receivers running 13 yard routes on 3rd and 1

Bingo. It is rediculous watching the receivers running these deep in or turn around routes that take 4 seconds to complete. This is a major reason why I cannot wait till Garrett is fired. He is football illiterate and has no sound reason to be the HC of the Cowboys.

He backs up and spins out to his right. You know its coming. We've seen him roll right into sacks multiple times this season.

 

[CalPolyTechnique]

Dak is responsible for more than a fair share of those sacks. Even Garrett was reported coming out of halftime saying Dak needs to be quicker with the ball.
