Dak wasn't the reason we lost yesterday but he is the reason we won't win a playoff/SB anytime soon.
Dak is great at the dink and dunk.. great at moving the ball between the 20s.. he will march us up the field all game long.. but when the windows get tight.. when the defence is locked on and it comes to scoring the TD.. he will fail again and again and again because he just is not good enough. His throws do not have the accuracy required to put our guys in space.
Also our run game suffered yesterday because we have a pass happy OC that loves the stats Dak puts up without thinking about the bigger picture. We needed to RUN the ball and chew clock. I knew the game was done the moment we gave it back to TB with time on the clock. WE WILL ALWAYS LOSE in that scenario.. and heck most teams would.. and why? Yes our defence is weak but also scoring a FG is relatively easy in the modern format. That is why the OT rules were changed.. because most teams can now march down for a FG 'at will'.
So whilst Dak will get all the praise and the stats will look great and everybody can woo hoo all they like.. we LOST THE GAME. Despite 4 turnovers.. we LOST THE GAME. and that is the POINT.
Dak put some pretty numbers up and we should have won.. had we had a reliable kicker.. but ultimately we lost because of the same issues, poor defence when it matters, poor time management and Dak being unable to come up with a TD when it really counted.
Dude is an above average QB at best.. but to really challenge we need an elite QB and not 'stat padding, pass happy, Winston style' QB but a guy that knows how to win when it matters.
