Dak's Last 2 Games

[LandryFan]

Well I don't see Beasley running too many of his slants as much. I think Washington really wanted to win and defense stepped up, Minny has a great defense so could be just who we played.

I do think players do get a tad complacent as well towards end of year, that is up to the coaches to keep that in check.

I agree that some of the "issues" with Dak related to the quality of the competition being faced. But just as importantly, IMO, is that our guys were just tired after the stretch of games they just endured (both in the games being bunched up and in the quality of opponents. It's very tough to come out of that stretch without a loss, but they did it. Let's hope the extra few days between games refreshes them some.

Based on what? One game where the entire offense was off?

They're a lot of factors, the entire offense wasn't off. Tyron smith, Zachary Martin and Fred were dominating their opponent

I believe that teams have figured out some of our favorite things to do with Dak and some of his tendencies. I think teams have figured out that 4 doesn't attack the middle of the field and likes to stick to the boundaries. I have also seen the boot leg action we like to use not be as effective lately. I do think the effectiveness of the boot leg has been limited because of the talented defenses we have been facing. This aspect of the offense should improve IMO.

Teams have adjusted to him. Kaepernick lit the world on fire for about a year

This statement makes no sense.

Dak's worst game other than the season opener was against Philly in week 7 when he had a 79.8 rating, a pick, two sacks, 19/39 and only 1 TD. Since then, he has been over 100 rating every game. Well over 100 in most cases.

So if teams have adjusted, they are doing a horrible job of it.

 

[Thetriplets22]

He hasn't thrown for 200 yards in either game. He has the best pass protection I've seen in the NFL for about a decade. Yeah I'm worried

What's great is we played like crap, but still won. That's what champion caliber teams do.

Yeah, great pitchers find a way to win when they don't have their best stuff

He wasn't very good against GB, Philly, Pitt or WAS either.

QB rating is overrated, when you
Throw 2 yard completions and 0 interceptions. It gets inflated

lolwut? He was great against GB, Pitt and especially Washington.

Yeah, I would not be surprised to see the bootleg go away for a few weeks. Teams are keying/spying on that. We need that as an option in the playoffs so we need to take that off the table for a while.

Late, yea. But overall he wasn't.

We would have killed Pitt and GB if he hadn't struggled in those games.

 

[Thetriplets22]

He had a 108.3 QB rating against Minnesota and he threw for 139 yards

That has more to do with the number of attempts and play calling than Dak. And you know it.

Good God!!! There seem to be a ton of trolls in this thread. More than usual. Not pointing the figure at anyone in particular. But Holy Smokes!!!

He threw for 195 yards against wash; how is that great? Lol

Rating doesn't account for fumbles and other things like holding the ball too long and missing open receivers.

Did you even watch the game?

 

[Baileyneverfailey]

Just better defenses and 3 games in 12 days. If he doesn't play well versus the Giants then we can reconsider.

nonsense. provide data and examples. if not you come off as a troll.

He threw 24 times against Washington. Dez was wide open like 4 times that he completely
Missed

Last 2 games - 60 dropbacks - 29 completions and 14 runs -48.3% completions on dropbacks

First 10 games - 363 dropbacks - 214 completions and 33 runs- 58.9% completions on dropbacks

The Vikings have one of the best secondaries in the game. If you judged Zeke by the Ravens game it would throw his stats off also.
