Not true. Dak can get better with better coaching.
Apart for a Championship game appearance.....and a considerable difference in QBR.
The FS is still there with the ability to turn and close on the Shultz route when Dak sets up to pass. And with a blitz coming, I don’t think he was waiting for the longer developing route as the hot is going to be quicker.
Dak struggles at times with the instinct to see plays before they happen. I clearly saw Schultz as the better option before he even broke wide open.
Lmao. Just total nonsense.
What are you talking about? This is not even close to correct.
You’re watching from a Birds Eye view. With where the safety is positioned and with it being a blitz which requires a quicker throw, it makes perfect sense why he didn’t go to Shultz. It’s also looking like an in-breaking route which would make this a lot more contested than you’re imagining.
the point is that you can get to the superbowl and win it, without an elite QB. is it easier having an Elite QB? yes absolutely. and you notice two names dominate, which is essentially Brady and Mahomes. that accounts for 9 of them. both generational type QBs. Lucky Pats, Lucky Chiefs.
Yeah I don’t see how this was terribly debatable. Initially it seems like “hey Shultz had a big play there”. But when you see the play from field level that S is an issue and it’s a blitz so the ball is going to have to come out faster.
Because to have that you have to have one of the best quarterbacks as well. Dak's pretty good, but Imo he's not to the level of somebody like a Brees or a Brady or a Mahomes, somebody who has multiple 5,000-yard seasons...
It's not debatable at all lol. 88 went to the hole in the zone and that's where Dak threw it.
That was my point, it's much more likely that having a Mahomes or such in my quest to win a SB, rather than having to depend on a "perfect storm" so that my bus driver quarterback can win it, is what we've seen.
So, how long does it take? He's had 7 years in the NFL, every year that passes makes it that much less likely he can get better. If he has the potential to be a lot better, it should have shown up by now, just by virtue of game experience. That's why Brady has 7 rings, he's been in the league so long he's seen pretty much all defenses can throw at him, but he started off with a SB win his second year, pretty clearly he had a lot more ability that teams thought, or he'd not lasted to the 6th round of the draft.
The Chargers did not retain Drew Brees due to coaching arrogance and inadequate medical evaluation. Marty Schottenheimer put in his starter, Brees, in the final regular season game versus the Broncos. San Diego had been eliminated from postseason play. Schottenheimer had the option of having the backup, Philip Rivers, start the game instead. Then Schottenheimer's stubbornness presented an opportunity of his starting quarterback getting injured trying to secure a fumble:
I would explain but it wouldn't matter because I've already talked about Daks weaknesses. But his first season he had some throws to Beasley in the flat about 10 yards away and Daks feet were set and he armed the ball without stepping into it. I about threw up in my mouth when I saw the ball land about 5 feet short of Beasley who was wide open. That was the weakest throw I've ever seen in my life, especially from an NFL QB. From that moment on I knew something was wrong with him. Then he comes out with this swivel hip thing. It's been my experience being around sports and playing that when you need to work so hard on your mechanics because it's not natural that is the first thing to break down under pressure. I just don't think Dak is good enough to win with. These other guys you talk about like Dilfer he had a great defense that could intimidate WRs and QBs. League doesn't let that happen anymore. Foles has more physical and natural ability to throw the football which makes his ceiling higher than Dak. You watch guys like Manning and Brees and you see the throws they make and know they are a very talented QB. I think Lamar Jackson has a better arm than Dak. I just don't see Dak using ball placement on the WRs body. He throws to a target but not any specific area of the target.
