The intentional grounding 3rd and inches play was abysmal. That sequence was horrid. A vet QB should never commit that kind of error.
The fumble happened bc he held onto the ball too long and now has concrete in his feet. He is now plodding compared to his agility a few years ago. It happens with age for sure— but he has to compensate for his lack of mobility by getting rid of the ball faster and intelligently throwing the ball away instead of trying to make something happen every down.
The INTs were also poor decisions and cost us points. He needs to dial down some of the risk taking and work more on tempo, tone, efficiency, and playing crisp, clean football. The points will come when he leads this team with poise and precision.
All that said— he threw some dimes on Sunday night, and made some big plays that helped us eek out the W. I am glad we won, but truthfully we should have walked away with a 10+ point comfortable win instead of heart-attack last second TD pass.
I am hopeful the offense is starting to round into form. It is what happened at this point last season. Huge game vs Detroit this week. Would be awesome if he plays his best game of the year and helps us go into the bye with some hope and momentum
give me the alternate to all that is he won the game, period end of story, it was in a hostile environment, outdoors on the road in grass ,with a little bit of inclement weather that happened ,so the turf was a little we, who knows how that affected the game with a long layover and what not.
If you do not want to read the rest, I'm goanna tell you this it was Prescott and this offense's best game despite the mistakes the long time consuming drives kept the defense rested kept their offense off the field with limited opportunities literally had I think 6 drives inside the 22 yard line let's just say the 30.. Just because it ended up in points and blow this team out it still was the best game of the year for all of them in my opinion ,all the balance run game with the pass game ,in that environment.. they'll clean up the mess but I think this is a launching point for the rest of the year this is a game-winning last drive but you look at all the other drives it was the best this offenses moved all year when they weren't supposed to this defense was supposed to shut this offense down and it did not..
When a quarterback gives you 6 drives in a game on the road that he was supposed to lose against a top five quality defense and happens to turn the ball over but we forget that those turnovers were not the same as giving up short fields giving up quick points they literally were time consuming drives they ate up the clock it kept the other teams offense off the field and kept our defense super rested those long drives happened because of puscott the turnovers were not all his fault but yes some of them turned out that way but because of him moving offense the way he did all day that's why we won the game it wasn't just a game-winning touchdown he helped our defense so much and kept their offense limited from getting any way to get back in the game quick the turnovers were just basically punts we punted one time all game so yes if you look at it from a perspective instead of being a hater I realize that you're telling the truth and it's factual but you're missing some of the other parts you're leaving out there are moving parts to the game like the offensive line the blocking the receiver is not running the right route or getting deep enough yes it happens it's a team game that's why it's a team win but Prescott's the reason we won the game even with the turnovers.. Sure we made it tough on ourselves at the end of the game and needed the game-winning touchdown drive but this happens we're not supposed to be dissecting a player's game when he wins cause those things with actual facts attached to him like a little* we don't win that game without Prescott even the drives that ended in turnovers oh by the way don't sweep under the road that is this two in a row now like Brandon aubrey's special teams the kicking game they miss a 51 yarder that would have sealed the game I believe in New York and I believe this was the only other field goal since gets blocked that's three points. That should have been an easy play no one's talking about that that's another drive Prescott put them inside the 30 yard line and they didn't come away with point.... on the special teams not the offense....
But you are correct there were mistakes made but you should be looking at in a positive manner how the heck do you beat the Pittsburgh Steelers who were three and one at the time can't take that away from them don't backtrack don't move the goal posts on the road long rain delay on grass and then you're down you get yourself in a pickle when they scored that touchdown with the little shovel pass to the tight end and they scored I think everybody here thought the game was over but Prescott carried them down the field recovers the fumble throws a touchdown and wins it all we can do is look at those negative parts of the game..
That is why they look at the film they'll try to get on the same page the blocking needs to be better so you don't get sandwiched by both pass rushers city land needs to not change the route and even though he said he would rather have been thrown high for a jump ball he did not run the route Prescott thought he was supposed to run that's on both players there's a story that all those interceptions....
You guys can gloss over this all you want but dak Prescott one interception of CD lamb once again and he does this too often goes off script the ball was thrown to a spot this is no longer re react and the receiver gets to choose the route he runs and hopes that the the quarterback sees the same thing no it was called to be a back shoulder pylon fade see you lamb thought maybe it wasn't gonna be open so he took the ball upfield Prescott already threw the ball it happens it was a misread on both peoples parts it was a bad decision for both players he did that in the Green Bay game you want to blame him for that no he was supposed to finish the crossing route the slant he doesn't he stops goes up field right as Prescott released the ball he gets a pick 6 Prescott gets blamed for it yes the one he threw trying to make something happen downfield he was expecting tober to get more depth and he didn't it was just a chance to try to make a big play and it didn't happen so yeah it's a mistake but it happens every week to lots of quarterbacks..
And on the fumble he's running away from TJ Watt jailbreak on the right side jailbreak on the left side 51 comes and sandwiches dude at full speed hits the ball it's just dumb luck the ball came out, that wasn't a a buttery fingers type of thing, it wasn't like a mental mistake, the man was trying to get away from TJ probably to throw the ball away or maybe just get back a line of scrimmage and then there's another guy coming full speed from the other direction how about we blame the offensive line,
you know what it was a mistake yes he fumble the ball it happens it's been happening to jalen hurts and go look at Patrick mahomes last 12 games it's eye opening about how many turnovers he's had and how the lack of touchdowns he's been getting credit for wins like they started out undefeated go breakdown those games and you'll find some quarterbacks making mistakes as well that's supposed to be elite you know like 3.7 yards in airtime one of the lowest of his career he's getting the ball out and dudes are doing the rest this is Andy Reid's offense helping them win games with a lot of yac yards.
