Dak is a good QB whose salary puts him in that "middle QB" trap.
He's pretty much the purest pocket QB left in football. The game has just evolved to where mobility is that much of a requirement. Not a runner any more, arm strength has dipped from average to somewhere below, but he is excellent at reading defense before the snap and throws an accurate ball. Doesn't take a lot of bad sacks either.
What really hurts Dak's game is his lack of anticipation. He's not a super-fast processor once the ball is snapped - he is not bad, but he's average. And that limitation really shows when his receivers aren't breaking open and he's not capable of Favre-ing a bullet into a closing window. He compensates by doing everything he can before the snap, but he's got to get to a Peyton Manning pre-snap level to play elite ball with average reads and now below average physical tools. Otherwise, he can't beat top tier defenses.
It's like in week 1 vs Tampa Bay, when they baited him into pass plays by showing stacked boxes and dropping out post-snap. He's got to play a Princess Bride type game of "I know that you know that I know", and hand some of those runs off anyway. Romo mentioned that he learned to do that only late in his career as well.
Says the old goat who didn't play football. Here, get better educated before you continue making a clown of yourself.
I'm "butthurt"? You're the guy who posted Tony having fun with his life....while you're miserable life enjoys being a %!$ on a fan message board.Butthurt fanatic who can't handle what a player was and still is no matter what sport he plays. Hey, more power to you if you love chokers.
You can thank the Romo haters for it. Anything to prop up their boy. It's pathetic.I saw that thread, but didn’t read through it. Don’t know why his personal life would come up. Roger Staubach is about the only QB the Cowboys have ever had that didn’t get bashed by his own fans. Even after Aikman won three Super Bowls he got booed and fans wanted him replaced by Randall Cunningham.
wait let me post a picture of dak shirtless. to get this thread back on the worship track.You can thank the Romo haters for it. Anything to prop up their boy. It's pathetic.
Very good points. However...we should also feel that the QB does have (probably?) the greatest influence on the game...as a single player.Final score is a product of the entire Cowboys offense, the entire Cowboys defense, and the opposing team. There's so many moving parts beyond the quarterback... in fact, you've pretty much introduced every moving part possible.
If you want to talk individual metrics about Dak, like DVOA, PFF grade, QBR, or EPA, I'll play ball. But ranking a QB by their entire team's point differential is idiocy. If you're claiming that's the case, you're also claiming that Brock Purdy is a better quarterback than Mahomes, and I'll leave it at that.
no, he's just a bus driver when we lose and it's not his fault, but in the wins, he's the hero and automatically gets the wins.. shrugsVery good points. However...we should also feel that the QB does have (probably?) the greatest influence on the game...as a single player.
You mean like Rodgers? Oh wait, oopsSolid QBs don’t fall apart at the sign of the 9-era
Oh oh, there's going to be a tissue shortage in the areas where Dak-Stains live..........wait let me post a picture of dak shirtless. to get this thread back on the worship track.
These weirdos got this type of stuff saved on their phones lolwait let me post a picture of dak shirtless. to get this thread back on the worship track.
The same thing happens in every thread about Dak. The haters couldn’t even give him a break in the thread about him being named NFL Man of the Year. Just another opportunity to bash him.You can thank the Romo haters for it. Anything to prop up their boy. It's pathetic.
Rodgers has won a Super Bowl. Oh wait, oops.You mean like Rodgers? Oh wait, oops
Yeah, because they knew Dak had only 1 weapon at WR. Duh!!! Anyone who has played the game knows how easy that is to defend. Proves you don't understand that since you never played the game.https://www.ninersnation.com/platform/amp/2023/1/23/23567720/49ers-cowboys-jimmie-dak-hufanga
Here’s what the pro’s not wannabe’s like you say.
Pathetic how he continues showing everyone his sexual preference.These weirdos got this type of stuff saved on their phones lol
Both by the extreme factions.
For those blaming Dak for the playoff loss performance against the 49ers, here you go. Get better informed. Kellen Moore was the problem...
Entire threads hating him for wearing his hat backward early in his career.Uhm
Romo bashing was pretty bad too lol
The Chargers have best hope Kellen Moore has learned from his playcalling and scheme mistakes. If Moore designs and calls better plays to help those Chargers receivers get better open, Justin Herbert and their team will benefit greatly. If Moore remains the same Moore with the limited schemes and playcalls, them Chargers will get tired of him quickly.This will be one of the interesting side stories this season.
The Chargers are falling over themselves over him but it's preseason OTAs and I'd say the jury is for sure out on this.
