Two issues I see with Dak
Slow to pick his target. You really have to throw to who will be open not who is open. Common issue with young QB
Gets his footwork out of whack some
These are issues that many young players have but like every young QB he has to work on them in order to improve
He needs a quicker release too. You can't pitch from the windup in the NFL.

I hate this stupid guy he cherry picks plays on every “analysis” he does. We’ve all seen Dak make every throw in the NFL.
Agreed. Maybe if we complain about it enough it will motivate him to go cherry pick those plays to prove Dak can make all the throws.

Dak's future is just that. He's a young QB who is struggling to achieve his ultimate value. Given time and patience to develop, he just might deliver to most expectations. All attempts to minimize his true attributes are yet to be proven, with all kneejerk negative conclusions to be set aside for the time being. :rolleyes:

I just use the eye test when I watch games. They tell me the OP has some good points. Dak is still a work-in-progress. He doesn't stink, but most fans of the team overrate him. He can make MOST (not all) of the NFL throws, but can't throw intermediate or deep passes with any consistency. He's late on throws and has more mechanical issues than my Great Aunt Beulah's Model T. Other than that, he's pretty darn good. :D

Funny how the stats on intermediate and deep throws say different, maybe it is time for Lasik?

All this guys videos are Dak hating. Of course it's cherry picked. He's not aware of the play called, the routes or the defensive schemes. It's incomplete. Can't really take it all serious.

As if you could with Dez...lol

I'm a high school coach. I've watched countless thousands of hours of tape over the years. These videos are meaningless. If I had an agenda and a lot of spare time I could cherry pick 10 hours of video showing that Tom Brady sucked. You could seriously do it with any body. I seriously don't have the time to watch enough Cowboys video to give a truly educated opinion on Dak and even if I did I wouldn't have the full story on the play design so I would only be getting half the story. My feeling about Dak is that he is a QB that has a lot of promise and played well for a season and a half, but regressed after the mauling in Atlanta, which is not unexpected. I think the release of Dez has a lot to do with making him feel confident again in the offense.

Coach here as well, I'll add that they want Dak to have the loudest voice on offense, Dez was too
SShhhhhhh. Adults are talking. We all know your bonefest for Dez cannot be challenged.....

Lol adult? The one who cries about a little comp...lol

One thing I've learned... avoid all threads about QB's present and past. Heck even our present QB's play is in the past. Straight ahead. Warp speed scotty

Turned it off after the first deep pass. Dak threw while a DL pushed the blocker into his lap. That ball was all arm, no chance to step into it. Garbage analysis.

What no man!! Dak can't throw it 40 yards only with his arm!! Didn't you know he's got a weak arm and can't throw deep??

AKOYE is a Dez apologist who doesn't like Dak. All of his videos of the 2 are slanted that way.

Yea, he brings up some valid points but he doesn't know how the offense is designed, or who is suppose to be the first read on a given play.

You can look at tape of every game and find people open on the backside of plays.

Dallas averaged 30 points a game when T. Smith and Zeke were in the line up so he didn't exactly cripple the offense like he is suggesting.
:hammer:

This guy has NEVER seen Dak lead a WR? Jeez.

This guy also cannot understand what a WR screen is vs a hitch route, but I'm supposed to listen to this guy?

The screen play, and yes it's a screen play, to Dez has been a staple of our offense for a long, long time under Linehan. It's a 3 step drop, the amount of steps Dak actually took which the guy exaggerates. It's designed as a blitz killer which allows Dez to go 1 on 1 vs a CB. If Dez beats the CB, it's a big play. But it's on Dez to beat the guy.

Dez has a 4 yard cushion after catching the ball to attempt to beat Darby for a TD in the video. Want to know another time Dez had a 4 yard cushion from catching the ball on this same play, after a 3 step drop?



Dak certainly has his faults as a QB. But it bugs the hell out of me when a guy is criticizing someone without understanding basic concepts or having to grossly exaggerate, or even flatly lie to attempt to make a point.
