16/25 for 160, that's a 64% completion rate and 6.4 yards par pass...which is bad onto it self......one play was for 64...which is good, but that means he was 15/24 for 96 yards.....and a paltry 4 yards per pass attempt.... that's ugly. really ugly... that means that teams don't respect the deep or medium throws and willing to gamble...yes they gave up a 64 TD pass, but that's one play....

one thing that was evident again last night, in the second half TD drive, he was setting his feet and making the throws...they were on target and had zip....then he was ugly footwork again for a lot of the other throws....
 
He relied on what got him on the Heisman list after his junior season, his legs. However, that will not work every week and they will not play a team as bad as the Giants every week. The Giants might be lining up for a housecleaning at the end of the season and drafting a QB with that top 5 pick.

Dak was more accurate than in his 1st game so that was good to see.

The bad thing about this is... Garrett and Jerry will think they have found the solution. Dak is a less than average QB. Aside from that one play.. he rarely throws deep.. that is concerning

there is some rumors that coaching staff wanted Romo back when he got over his injury a couple of years back...but Stephen and Jerry wanted Dak to play and worried about disrupting the apple cart per se..... now, Romo retired....the coaching staff has no choice but to play with Dak...you can only scheme your way out of incompetency so much....dak wasn't accurate again last night....
 
Dak didn’t turn the ball over ran his *** off and showed some pocket awareness week 2. Oh and we came out on top with a victory against the Giants. I would be more inclined to suggest Dak needs to keep improving but that is a glass half full statement. Wouldn’t this thread be better suited in the “drama zone” considering we won with Dak at QB.

Wrong. He played well, but then you have to actually watch the game instead of just looking at the stats and backing out the longest play.

I did watch the game.... again his throws aren't that good, he is not going to his 2nd, and 3rd options and he had plays to be made down the field. his footwork was sometimes high schoolish and at other times decent. when he set his feet and stepped into his throws, he made them...otherwise they were all over the place.....and the final stats validate what the eyes saw....

False. He DID go to multiple 2nd and 3rd reads. And his throws were on point. Much improved from last week.

Sorry, you are dead wrong. He was accurate last night and made some great throws. Multiple times he had pressure in his face as soon as the ball was snapped. Also had good throws that the WRs did not make plays on. Not to mention the penalties.

the score was 13-3 in the 4th..... 13 points.... and we had a TD drive which he looked good...the defense played fantastic...when you hold the opponent to 3 points with 6 minutes to go....you have done your job.....the defense had 6 sacks and gave the offense good team position...giants were true to their word...loading the box and daring Dak to beat them....he did...with 6 yard throws...again, he did have one 64 yard TD pass... but the rest of the time it was very very average

There is also a rumor that Garrett and Romo's relationship deteriorated after that which is counter to that rumor.

about 64% accuracy....but YPC and YPA are important stats, often they tell the tale of the game....

and now, every week, its he faced a tough defense story....every week is a tough game....other QBs perform.....
