Why do so many people ignore the fact that our o-line took a huge step backwards this past year in terms of protection? Dak was pressured on many more throws this season than last, this is exactly why his numbers dipped. When Dak has decent time he's a great QB with fantastic numbers, what is the solution? Give him better protection when he's passing the ball. How can anybody expect a 2nd year QB to flourish when being pressured on 40%+ of drop backs in 2/3rds of the games in the season? Go look at the stats for Dak when he's pressured less than 40% of snaps his numbers are elite. This past year he was under huge pressure from opposing rushers.
This is just not true.
Dak was sacked 32 times this season.
That ranks 14 out of 32 in the NFL.
Matthew Stafford was sacked 47 times and had a great season.
Russell Wilson was sacked 43 times and had a great season..
Kirk Cousins was sacked 41 times and had a good season...
I guess we just like to go along with narratives.
