Dak is good but has an average arm

[plasticman]

The majority of fans grade quarterbacks om statistics only, and not even the correct ones.

They vasty underestimate the value of critical attributes such as leadership, poise, loyalty, hard work, great relationships with fellow teammates, ability to inspire, positive role model, and setting a standard for public behavior.

These all matter. Public behavior? Early suspensions cost the Cowboys a season or two.

Great relationship with fellow teammates? His teammates love him.

Ability to inspire? First one to practice, last to leave is one of his habits admired by his peers. The way in which he goes about conducting his job related business and responsibilities inspires his teammates to work harder than they were originally willing.

There is so much more to being a successful NFL quarterback than numbers.

And the most important stat? That would be won/lost record. The main goal of a quarterback is to help win games in the role assigned to them and there is a multitude of different roles.

Outside of Watsons 2 picks that were both unlucky tips/drops, he and Dak had very similar stats. If you thought Watson played bad today, you should say the same about Dak

Throwing it to where Micah could get his hands on it was "unlucky"?

Wrong. Bad throw. How many of Dak's passes were batted at the LOS like that?

Oh, and Watson wasn't on the road vs the reigning #1 D in football.

You tried.

I actually did. Dak would have said the same.

Cmon, man, what does Tom Brady know about playing QB............

 

[Whirlwin]

I understand your point. His arm was great in the first half.. not sure why he starting throwing balloons.

Because he couldn’t follow through. I don’t know why I have to explain that.

 

[NFCBeasts]

Was GB game not a team game?

100% team loss.. our defense played awful. just like the offense … what’s your point ?

 

[Cowboys93]

Doesn't matter anymore

He's your qb for the next 3 years st least

Yep. No matter how I feel about what has gotten us up to now is out the window. Got to hope for the best. Glad we’re 1-0 onto the next

Agreed

They overpaid for him and I still have no clue how they field a team paying 120m to 3 players between dak ceedee and micha, but I guess we will see

100% team loss.. our defense played awful. just like the offense … what’s your point ?

nothing. just asking. there are two faction on that loss. one group, it was all Dak and others like youself believe that its a team loss.
I am in the second camp. Dak played bad, no doubt. but CD played bad. the OL was atrocious. the defense was a seave. and coaches were down right awful.

 

[CowboysFaninHouston]

Sure. But how does Tom explain a comp % - 59.4 20th among QBs. Leading the bottom third of the NFL.

So many passes high / low & in front / behind. Year 9.

hi @khiladi. we missed you. is this a new ghost account?

 

[CowboysFaninHouston]

He's definitely not worth 245 million. We will never win a superpower with that guy. Ever

that's what you wish to happen...........so you can be right.

 

[CowboysFaninHouston]

Dak looked like crap today, the team played well, defense was great

that's your definition of craap? against the #1 defense in the league. with 2 rookie OL men...

 

[CowboysFaninHouston]

Yeah he played a great game for a game manager. Not a great game for a QB who is apparently worthy of being the highest paid player in the NFL

you all need to learn to separate business from NFL play. there will 1000% be a next QB who will earn a lot more and in the next two years $60M will not be in top 10. exactly what happened when he signed the $40/avg. contract.

 

[CowboysFaninHouston]

He lacks elite arm strength and accuracy, especially on 7 yard slants on 3rd and 6.

that's a very narrow hole you are trying to fit your narrative into...a 3rd and 6 slant and 7 yard throw..... how did you come up with this one? took a lot of imagination.

 

[CowboysFaninHouston]

Dak was average at best today and almost got picked 3 or 4 times, let’s all pretend he was amazing though.

welcome to the NFL. next time pay attention to every QB. they all almost get picked 3, or 4 times. watson could have been intercepted another 5 times. but it didn't happen.

but I get it. I get your agenda.

 

[shabazz]

Negative Dak haters back as usual. I thought y'all were leaving if Jerry gave Dak another huge contract.

When an offense doesn't play a single snap in preseason they are almost always behind. This offense, especially the O-Line, needs time to jel. Also have to factor in ceedee missing all of TC.

I'm not rating them until we have a big enough sample size

 

[BusDriver]

You hate Dak. You hate this ownership. You incessantly attack them both. By the English dictionary, that is what you are. Those are your own actions. That's not name calling when it is true based on your own statements and actions.

Post up where I ever said either of those things. You can’t.

That’s your linear brain’s made up fan fiction story to excuse and rationalize your vitriolic endless name calling. Convenient.

Also known as: gaslighting.

Opining I didn’t want Dak extended, like 70% of this board, doesn’t make me a hater.

Pointing out Dak’s stats doesn’t make me a hater.

I’ve been a Cowboys fan since 1974. Just bc I don’t drink the Jones koolaid doesn’t make me a hater.

All this dance of yours to keep deflecting and avoid explaining how it’s not average to below for Dak to be 20th in completion % and 15th in QBR. And to avoid answering if you’re gonna credit the team for carrying Dak and getting the CLE win, the team you just yesterday claimed is responsible for losses. Stats P certainly didn’t win the game.

I’ve never called you a name, I address your content and all you ever do is gaslight and attack, over and over and over. I even tossed you a like in another thread on a post that made sense. So really man, maybe step back and evaluate how you define hate.

Personal attack prediction: 3

 

[atlantacowboy]

Who cares? Give me a noodle armed Peyton Manning with great command of the offense who wins when it matters most. Arm strength is nice but the list of great arms with forgettable careers is long. Dak is on that trajectory.

 

[MyFairLady]

His arm is b+ . his accuracy and legs are b +. His leadership and apparently his negotiating skills are a+.

IMHO his leadership is the single worst part about him. Being best buds with a few teammates is not leadership. What you saw in Green Bay last year was 100% a failure in leadership.

Dak carried the offense the whole 1st half yesterday. We all saw it, but you won't admit it because of how you truly feel towards Dak. It's hatred on your part, because if it wasn't, you wouldn't be acting this way towards Dak for weeks now. Your own actions and statements prove that. Backpeddle all you want, we all see how you truly feel.
