He is what he is. He is an athlete playing quarterback, not a pocket passer. The runs, the read option, the bootlegs are all things he does well.

He doesn't handle pressure in the pocket well so it needs to be avoided. He threw the ball straight in the dirt in those situations. He is not accurate from the pocket.

Good for our system but the system has to shake it up some times.

Well in his defense......I don't think any quarterback is good at taking hits and under pressure. Pressure makes even the great qbs in this league look pedestrian.

The value of a mobile QB. Switch Qb's and I don't think we score double digits.

He gave up his body on the TD run and made made some clutch throws down the stretch and evaded some pressure from the Cards.

More than all that was the poise he and the entire team displayed. Tough "gut check" win tonight.

Solid team win after a horrid team loss last week.

Wow are you on crack? He threw that up for about 5 yards short

That was probably the worst throw of the game

The guy threw that on the run and under pressure? That is a very hard throw to make in this league.....i'm not sure if you guys are trolling or think this is Madden and you can play on rookie mode and play incredible.

You're crazy!

Palmer looked great tonight while wearing Lawrence on his back.

What a game by Dak! His TD run turned the game around. His deep throws were excellent. He played like an All-Pro tonight. Coming off a tough game he showed everyone what he's made of. That's leadership.


He always bounces back after tough games.

His desire to win was palpable. Loved it, and how it spread to the rest of the team. :flagwave:

I agree. Dak was Dak and perhaps some of this negative criticism can now start to go sit in a corner somewhere. Great game. They're getting on track.

Can't say enough about Dak. I was never sold on him as being as good as some people made him seem after just one year because he was surrounded by all stars and hardly faced any pressure and when he did face pressure it wasn't good. I also didn't think he deserved a lot of the flak he got after last week and remained optimistic he would learn and grow (unlike his fellow draft class teammate). Tonight he was much better under pressure and continues to impress me. Can't say enough good things about the guy on and OFF the field.

Exactly; An ELITE qb makes that throw perfect for a walk in

Dak is not an elite qb
