Dak Prescott has hit his ceiling as a quarterback

https://thelandryhat.com/2018/11/23/dak-prescott-hit-ceiling-quarterback/


...The numbers indicate Prescott is having a slightly better season in Year Three than in 2017, with a higher passer rating (93.2), completion percentage (65.2) and only five interceptions through 11 games. Still, anyone who watched Prescott play against the Washington Commanders on Thanksgiving saw the young quarterback’s shortcomings.

The 25-year old still struggles with accuracy, overthrowing his receivers at times and sending passes into the turf on others. Prescott’s vision as a passer must also be questioned as he’s often very slow in making his reads, requiring extra time in the pocket his patchwork offensive line is often unable to give him.

One of the best examples of Prescott’s lack of development from Thursday’s win over Washington was late in the second quarter. Dallas had the ball on the Commanders four-yard line with 1:42 left in the first half, and the score tied at seven...

...Prescott and this coaching staff in Dallas have had three years to improve his fundamentals, his footwork, his accuracy and his vision as a passer. And, for the most part, all we’ve seen is a regression from his rookie season. Prescott continues to show us who he is and who he isn’t. Maybe it’s time more people started believing in the player that he is, and not the one they hope he’ll become.

That site hasn’t been relevant for years. They want your Black Friday clicks.

This is merely good football by Prescott. Not his ceiling. It’s silly of them to declare it his ceiling if he’s had a season like 2016.

He’s a young QB developing. If Eli Manning can win two Super Bowls; so can prescott. Landry Hat won’t get my clicks today or ever. They’re bleacher report without a team stream app lol

Steven Mullenax is an idiot, that site just recycles the same garbage. I try to support the players on the team and try not to complain. It makes gameday enjoyable. When Aikman played some fans wanted him released, I am glad no one listened. Danny White should have continued to start as well. It was a bad move by Landry caving into the fans. I do think Dak can improve but all of these internet gurus just think that everyone the team does not have is better.

Dallas has Rush and White on the team. I am sure that the scouts are always on the look-out for talent. The team seems to be making strides to improve the level of QB play. It is absurd to think that Dak has hit a ceiling. He wants to learn and plays with a chip.
I think he is working on correcting errors such as holding on to the ball and taking a sack. I would rather have a sack than an interception. When I see Dak play, I see a young man with a drive to win. I don't get all of this Dak hate.

Not sure how he could have hit his ceiling if this year if he's played at a higher level in the past

 

[ShiningStar]

its like people get their thinking from the numbers and not by the play.

Media: Such and such qb is better than Troy Aikman because they have better numbers.

Me: no you pin head, Troy put winning before him, so if it meant handing off the ball to beat on the defense with Emmitt, guess what, Troy was about the team winning not his stats.

Oh, so he’s improving, but he’s also reached his ceiling?

At age 25?

LOLLLLLLLL uh-huh. Right.

 

[PJTHEDOORS]

lol....pretty sure Dak doesn't percieve so called ceilings.

"Through 11 games."

Impeccable timing with that article.

That's a pretty good point about Eli - I never looked at Dad that way. But he'll have to get away with some extremely lucky throws in the playoffs like Eli did.

I don't think Dak has hit his ceiling but I also think it's fair to say he should be further along at this point. Dak is one of the hardest players to figure out in my 40 years of watching the Cowboys.

It's like he's a trained Tiger, sure I can admire him, even pet him, but I'm scared to death he'll kill me before it's over because at the end of the day...

He is what he is.

Terrible site. I refuse to go there. Their takes are are just awful.

Lol, where are the Dak Prescott antagonists now?

Terrible site. I refuse to go there. Their takes are are just awful.

They at least challenge the status quo as to observations and potential directions. They, at least, aren't afraid to bring the discussions onto the table. Disproving some of their stuff is a valid discussion. They have a value.

You tried it.

It at least gives a point of comparison for a future after-season-analysis. We will know then, just how off their fears were then. But they didn't stop the show for a crap load....

I work in media for a baseball site 10x the size of Landry hat and it’s just the type of headline and fluff story you write so you get clicks and shares in a forum like this. I won’t comply.

Clickbait 101. His SEO probably isn’t even good on the post

Clean up your statement, Joe...

Check back and see if they have 1,000 clicks then. That was the standard back when, for Bleacher Report. I actually wrote for them before their syndication days...but wouldn't bury my hatchet in support of Jerry Jones.

I comment the way I see it...but won't validate a lynch mob approach as to observations.

I at least listen...unless very personal and a displayed agenda/stereotyping.

I'm betting those media blowhards giving such ridiculous opinions never played football. If they did, they probably sucked! Sucky opinions from sucky little people who very likely sucked at playing football. Their opinions are trash.

LOL i find it ironic coming from a guy with using an avatar of what the article points out as a part of his problem.
