Dak had the equivalent of battered victim syndrome (excuse the crude analogy but I can't think of a better one) from the whooping he took last week thanks to Chaz Green. Almost all of his terrible throws last night were because he didn't trust that he had more than two or three seconds to get the ball out. Almost all of his bad throws were when his back was to the LT and who the LT was blocking, especially that high throw to Beasley. I'm not saying that justifies his poor play but it's something I think he will adjust to, and hopefully won't have to if Tyron is back for the rest of the season starting Thursday.
Dak exceeded so many expectations last year because of his work ethic and his constant grind. Every game he was better than anyone thought he could be. The second half of the Green Bay playoff game showed me Dak has the potential to be an elite QB. Any talk of him not being the franchise QB after 2 bad games is just asinine. That said, I think he got a bit of a big head after last season going into this offseason and this season with all of the commercials, endorsements, etc. I think this will humble him and he will spend this entire offseason grinding and getting on a whole new level. He is not having a sophomore slump like RG3 or Foles. Teams are built a certain way and the injuries, poor coaching, and ineffective wide receivers have decimated this particular team. If Dak has proven anything it is that he can adapt and overcome. He may need another off-season, but I have little doubt he can be elite by this time next season. Remember the beginning of last year when everyone thought Brady had finally fallen off based on 3 or 4 games?
