Dez injury update

[jwooten15]

I am happy that the coaches have Dez running more crossing routes. The throws from Dak didn't seem overly forced yesterday.

Hopefully he and TWill are good to go

That's because you cheerleaders pass it off as "schtick".

Schtick this. Dak Prescott is not nor will he ever be a franchise QB and I hate every single second I see him under center for the Dallas Cowboys.

I don't know how I can say it more clearly.

Not because he's the worst player in the world but because he's not elite and this is the future at QB of the Dallas Cowboys we're talking about here. I want the QB to be the make up to cover the blemishes of the team not the team having to cover up the acne of the QB.

You're being exposed for the real P.O.S. human that you are and I'm kinda enjoying the show. Anyone that feeds you likes, are either as vain as you, or, just completely clueless. You were content to ride the "schtick" wave while there still yet existed a slim possibility that Dak might not pan out. Now all the ignorant sheeple you pander to, get to see the real you.

 

[Risen Star]

I'm hopeful (and optimistic) that Dak can improve his accuracy and figure out where to put the ball for Dez... but he may never be the pure passer everybody wants him to be. Still, he's a baller and I think he can be good enough to win it all.

That's what I look for in a QB. Someone who struggles throwing the ball.

Besides catching, that dude is a great receiver.

 

[Risen Star]

Why is it you assume Dak has reached his ceiling? I can understand your desire for him to be better but for a 2nd year qb who everyone thought was a developmental type it would seem you have zero patience for him. Dak does a ton of things well already. He is a high character kid by all accounts and is a grinder. Do you ever think one day you will realize Dak actually improved and he can make that pass now or do whatever you said he couldn't. I mean you treat him like a five year veteran who has capped out, and for what? to be right?

No. He'll never be an elite passer. He doesn't have the skills for it. He lacks arm talent.

You have a lonnnnggggg decade in front of you my friend.

Tony Romo made sMiles Austin, Laurent Robinson and Dez Bryant all multi-millionaires. He was an incredibly WR-friendly QB.

Dak's strengths are in game management, his legs, and overall leadership/demeanor. He may eventually develop a rapport with Dez (I hope he does), but his downfield and intermediate passing at present do not match Dez's strengths.

It's primarily a placement issue. Dak seems to prefer leading the receiver either up the field or back into the field instead of setting it where Dez can stop and go up and get it. Like Romo not being particularly good at throwing the end-zone fade (he was much better at throwing the back-shoulder near the goal line), Dak just doesn't seem to be comfortable with this throw.

I also think teams still gameplan really strongly for Dez because he's our only WR who's going to beat you by being physically superior. I think it's greatness that Dak hasn't really gone through much of a sophomore slump, whenever he's struggled at all this year he seems to learn from it and compete and come out the better player. I think he has a lot of Brady-like attributes and is obviously not there yet but shows he's got what it takes to be elite.

I don't know how I can say it more clearly.

39 touchdowns and 8 interceptions in his career so far, not including his 10 rushing touchdowns. He's 18-7 as a starter. And he's only in his second year - I think we can remember where Romo and Aikman were in their second year. He has improved every week.

What am I missing?

What, because you alone think he sucks, even when the evidence points the other way, that the masses of us real fans have to agree otherwise we're cheerleaders? Uhhh

I'm convinced you have now never watched him play before. My word, dude. Pathetic.

 

[CowboyRoy]

I appreciate Romo explaining the problem between Dez and Dak without really laying the blame on either. Dak simply isn't playing to Dez's strengths yet, which is what several here have pointed out in the past. It took Romo a while to build trust to put the ball where Dez can win it so who knows when or if Dak will get there.

I dont blame Dak. With Dez, you basically have to throw the ball up for grabs. Personally, I would rather have a receiver that beats his guy outright and gets open consistently.

 

[DenCWBY]

When you have a franchise QB he enhances the effectiveness of the WRs. He makes them better.

I hope people pick up on what you're really trying to say here.

So by the same notion, what your saying here is that Wentz is not a franchise QB. Since he evidently could not make last years receiving corp better, the Eags had to go out and totally revamp their receiving corp from FA and the draft.
Ok thanks.

OUCH!!! LOL

Still sore about Romo eh? Dak is incredible. The guy is a total and complete stud franchise QB. I say some negative stuff on here, but its typically about guys that hold the team back. You hating on Dak? I dont think even an Iggles fan would agree with your take.

Like Romo not being particularly good at throwing the end-zone fade (he was much better at throwing the back-shoulder near the goal line), Dak just doesn't seem to be comfortable with this throw.

Agreed. There's also a difference in mentality. Dak wants to put it where ONLY his player can get it and keep it out of harms way. That's his approach. Romo was happy to throw a contested ball, especially to Dez.

I have no reason to be upset with Dak. Hopefully he'll learn to use Dez more effectively. There is no question that Romo was a better overall passer the last several years than Dak is at present...but Dak is a second year player with a different skillset. He is still progressing in different ways.

Two completely different QB's. I agree that Romo made any and all receivers look great. He was THAT type of QB.

 

[DenCWBY]

Apparently only 4 people like that Bryant's ankle injury isn't serious.

I'm actually as worried or more worried about TWills health to be honest. Any news on him?

Dak is plenty accurate. Dak is the not the problem with Dez. Dez is the problem. And Dak made Williams look like an all pro yesterday. Even Romo couldnt do that.

Every qb has things he’s good at. Tony never really mastered the fade in the back of the end zone . Dak may never have the chemistry with Dak down the field but I hope we keep seeing dez used across the field as we have some lately. Those down field 50/50 throws just aren’t dak’s strength but get the ball in dez hands and let him run by using crossing routes and slants

 

[conner01]

Hopefully he and TWill are good to go

I’ve always felt dez just needs the ball in his hands and those routes are high percentage throws
Hopefully they continue to expand and that will open up some shots down field that are actually open

I don't think he sucks.

You have to add to what I say to have some sort of rebuttal.
