Dak is the 4th most accurate QB in the league

[atlantacowboy]

Any metric that puts Winston on top has zero credibility.

HE'S ACCURATE AT THROWING TO THE OTHER TEAM

1 interception in 102 attempts!?

 

[CowboysFaninHouston]

Hurts at 34

@MountaineerCowboy

that's your boy

Not even neanderthals believe that attempts is relevant to how a QB is playing. This is a caveman list of stats.

I listed all the main stats and that hurt your feelings (via your neanderthal insult). You also zeroed in on attempts as if that was the stat I wanted point out. Laughable attempt to spin the numbers. Dak isn't a top 10 QB in any main QB stats.

You listed all of the mouthbreather stats.

EPA is as main as it gets, for smart people.

The point is that completed air yards is as much a receiver stat as it is how aggressive a QB is or isn't.

And a system stat, plus one where sample size is crucial. Look at air yards about week 10, one game can completely skew those numbers this early in the year.

With 18 passes take it with a grain of salt it's a small sample size right now

 

[CowboysFaninHouston]

THE OFFENSE SUCKS BECAUSE HE SUCKS AT THROWING BAD PASSES

he is 11th in completion percentage....so there is that!

Yea, 3 weeks isn't enough of a sample to matter, but I didn't feel like going down that road lol

its based on a single game for him.....he will average to lower numbers as he plays more

Hey, I'm sure Dak was the best QB throwinYou listed all of the mouthbreather stats.

Keep insulting me when you cannot counter all the mainline stats for QBs.

[Cowboys5217]

Yards per Attempt is generally regarded as the most important QB stat. Dak: 24.

I already countered them. I know you're allergic to context, but that's what EPA is.

Like why would a QB be throwing a) often or b) downfield when blowing a team out?

"Mainline stats" is literally shorthand for "stats for lazy people who only watch box scores." You're insulting yourself.

You didn't counter anything. All you can do is continue to insult me.

Underrated comment. I wouldn't use it strictly as a Dak bashing tool as hes really had just one game where he needed to sling the ball around so far, but just speaking in general if you only had one stat to evaluate a QBs value this might be the one I would take. Obviously you need to factor in things like the supporting cast, but Y/A gets slept on.

I countered it with EPA.

I'm not trying to be insulting, I don't know that you're dumb. I just genuinely think your refusal to acknowledge - let alone understand - any sense of nuance or context means is on par with dumb people.

You don't even answer very basic questions. I'll try again.

Why would a quarterback with a lead be throwing often or downfield?

I agree....theres a lot of parts. Like drops or bad routes rivht? And while i dont think a qb will heave it 50 yards just to pad your version of the stat....it seems a hollow line to draw in the sand.

It would seem either approach has bias. Consider both versions? Chose the one most meaningful, relevent, helpful for improvement?

Air yards, in and of itself, is just a team ideology. It's not really a QB stat.

Where it becomes a QB stat is context for things like on target % and time to throw, especially with WR separation factored in.

Again....i tend to agree for the most part.
If it seems small by comparison to the rest of the league....why is that and does it matter?

 

[rnr_honeybadger]

they were pissed he won those games last year. sheesh

That was some harrowing times for the Dak-fans - oh crap the team doesn't need Dak to win.....get Dak back get Dak back. Dak comes back and sure enough, leads the league in INT's craps the bed against the 49-ers. But don't pay attention to that, look at how he beat up a weak Tampa team...look look. Dak fans really are pathetic.
