Overhated. He isn’t Mahomes. Not close. Yet he is a solid QB. Does not deserve the level of vitriol he gets. Get mad at Jerry.

Solid QBs don’t fall apart at the sign of the 9-era
Just the best defense in the League last year. 11 QBs put up sub 80
QBRs last year vs them. Top pass defense in the league in 2022. I guess Dak should have lit them up on the road, with 1.5 WRs and a hurt starting RB.

He is overrated, overhated, overpaid, and over loved !! Never seen a player cover the entire spectrum like this!
Every year he says this is the year (like jerry), he knows more now, he sees things clearer, etc etc, then in the playoffs
things go south.
Could be Dak is just a good entertainer and spokesman, again sort of like jerry.

:popcorn: Look at the ace who ran from the topics of serving country as well as law enforcement. No, insulting some one instead does not count beyond being an ***.

Now make another ignorant insult as insult with a no brain inclusion gets YOU off the hook.

Just what is supposed to be wrong with playing bingo?

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.

Why do you follow then? To poke fun at a real fan or to feel like you are spreading truth?

If those are your real feelings, then that alone makes one a fool for following when it is a sport.

Game one of a season that was part of two consecutive 12 win seasons? Teams are grown over time. The defense started to emerge through the early season confrontations.

Just what game did the team of Dallas lose by the most points?

Dak is a mediocre QB who lucked into a starting job and getting picked by an organization run by a guy who has no real interest in building a winner rather he wants the team to be competitive enough to keep people interested.
Truth right here

The defense improving isn't salient to Dak.
