Next Gen stat of the game: Dak Prescott recorded his third game this season with three-plus pass TDs versus the blitz (never had any such games from 2016-2020). Dak accounts for three of the NFL's four games with three-plus pass TDs versus blitz in 2021 (Tom Brady has the other, in Week 1 vs. DAL). Prescott also averaged 8.7 air yards per attempt (averaged 7.1 from Weeks 1-4).

Dak has been great against the blitz for a few years now.

not good enough. he makes more than the other three above him (and I have no idea who the other three are). he needs to be at least 75% for 160M. and half of those throws have to be TDs, else not good enough....given we have given him the best Right guard and plus he plays against zone defenses.....zone defenses and right guard I tell you....its zeke I tell you.....zeke and pollard...see he lost the game against tampa but zeke and pollard won the other games....waaahhhh waahhhh

He has this thing inside of him that Brady has. Brady, a 6th rounder, is just flat out intelligent. I wish I could go more into what makes a great QB but that would be a long post. But I can guarantee you that it's not just about physical gifts. The guy wants to be good, practices to be good, understands what makes a QB good, and goes out and IS good. He's self made, which should inspire us all.
