He’s had a very high percentage of his ints come from balls bouncing off the wr hands and going right to the secondary…I forget where I saw the number but about half weren’t his fault (someone posted it on here)
that being said, he’s got to make less mistakes and clean up in the playoffs….can’t turn it over 3 times in a playoff game and expect to get a win
What was one of the reasons the Cowboys did so well in Dak's rookie year? Only 4 ints, tied for second in the league in int percentage, trailing only Brady.
So, Dak has shown ints don't have to be an issue, possibly he can "right the ship" and return to protecting the ball. Some here act like Dak has been an int machine his entire career. Now generally it's far easier to get into bad habits rather than get out of them, but would it hurt to at least consider that Dak might be able to return to 2016 form?
Also, when Dak does throw an int that doesn't involve the receiver having a very catchable ball bounce off his hands, we never (well, if memory serves Lamb or some other receiver did say it was his fault once), why is it automatically all Dak's fault? Never a "wonder if the receiver ran the wrong route" etc. comment made. From what we've seen and heard Dak is not one to point fingers and throw his receivers under the bus if they screw up. So, if the int IS the fault of the receiver, we'll never know, it's probably dealt with in private with Dak, the receiver and maybe the coaches. Again, would it hurt to maybe broach the possibility?
But nooo, it's "Dak sucks" 95% of the time. It' just not something that I think true Cowboys fans should do. Any player that makes a boneheaded play should be criticized for that play, but for some person sitting on their sofa to sagely declare they absolutely know who screwed up when an int is thrown is just not thinking, but a knee jerk reaction....
