Dak plays eerily similar to Peyton Manning since his injury

[MountaineerCowboy]

ahh, yeah i guess he had two stages. i was thinking more of the sb yr and being replaced by brock osweiler, when he had a noodle arm.

He fell off a cliff very quickly.

He went from 39 TDs to 9 TDs the next season.

Does it come easily spewing a pile of dogcrap or do you have to work at it?

Don't know, you tell me.

 

[Big D]

Dak is more like Warren Moon than Peyton IMO

 

[USArmyVet]

lol always the victim. perhaps it's because you've had plenty of time to come around. how many games is sufficient?

Victim? Never and not about to start with these pugs.

OK. Who are the 14, including Watson, that you have ranked ahead of him? What criteria does your ranking system use? Does it have anything at all with what they do on the football field?

I watch more than just Cowboys game and re-watch full games from other team during my downtime. My ranking is mostly base on the eye test. For example the eye test clearly show in last week game that Justin Herbert is a tier above Dak despite the loss. Herbert had to do more to carry his team than Dak because the Chargers have less talent than the Cowboys. He make throws and does things that Dak has never been able to do. It not just about win/loss as win/loss is a team stats.

Both are average/mid-tier level arm talents who rely on their ability to dissect a field. Dak has a stigma as being a mobile quarterback due to his college days but watching the league due to having semi retired I’ve seen only one clear better pocket passer than him in Tom Brady!

Lets not get crazy.

Manning started 16 games in aseason 16 years. Of thoe he failed to win 10 games in a season 3 times.

Of those 13 winning season he had 12 or more wins in 11 of those seasons. I know , i iknow... he had amazing coaches and Dak's coaches uck...bahahahahahahhah
Lets see if Dak gets anywhere near those numbers.

Omaha Omaha!!

Don't know, you tell me.

Its clear you have natural talent but also work hard at it.

 

[Irvin88_4life]

That alone tells a deeper story. When folks know you are supremely talented, they don't worry about a bad game occasionally.

Well that's not right. If a player has a good game, say it. If that player plays like garbage then say that too.

You guys complain about the golf club culture but only call out players you dislike

I know this is sarcasm. What world do you live in?

 

[fansince68]

The arm is average, but the heart makes up for it. What I wanna know is what happened to Daks mobility. He looks like has 2 left feet when pressured and he tries to scramble. Hard to do RPO's now.

 

[conner01]

If Watson come back, I have Dak rank as #15.

I bet your other 65 posts were just as uninformed

Why do fans insist on comparing players early in their career to the entire career of an all time great?

 

[conner01]

You could throw acid in the eyes of Peyton Manning and he'd still see CeeDee Lamb wide open in the end zone waving his arms 10 yards away from him.

He didn’t want the east TD
But he got the TD didn’t he lol

 

[conner01]

At first, I read “Eli” rather than “Peyton.” Eli makes more sense.

Eli is pretty over rated
Dak is nothing like Payton
Hopefully he gets close enough in his career to even consider the argument

 

[conner01]

Manning after his neck injury was throwing ducks. Nobody was scared of his arm bro

So you compare his whole career to the end of his career
Young Payton had a terrific arm

 

[conner01]

He fell off a cliff very quickly.

He went from 39 TDs to 9 TDs the next season.

That happens
All careers come to an end
By 2030 even Brady might retire

Looks like Matt Rhule has been reading this thread.

That's called "context". Very important when throwing stats around willy nilly.

77% completion percentage says otherwise. The ignorant point to an mobility like it’s an x-factor for great qbs when history has proven otherwise.
