The only real positive I can see coming from this failed end to the season is that if the coaches and management are looking at Dak realistically, they should easily be able to see that he will never be Mahomes or Rogers at this point in his career.
Up until this point, I believe that Jerry has believed that Dak was on the level of Rogers and guys like that and could win on his arm, but I think this season answered those questions finally.
So this happening, has moved the rationale on the types of players we need to draft and the style of play we absolutely have to adopt. Lets look back at some of the Quarterbacks that have won superbowls. We have Nick Foles, Russell Wilson, Joe Flacco, Brad Johnson, Trent Dilfer, Ben Roethlisberger, etc... Of course we have quite a few more great Qb's whom have won superbowls, but these are guys that have won that aren't much better than Dak and in some cases worse in my opinion..
I know, I know, Dak hasn't been able to put the team on his back, he just isn't that type of guy, although some could argue that without the stupid penalties and terrible oline he might of done much better? This brings me to my next point in saying that we have to build a stronger oline no matter what, no stone can be left unturned...
If we want a shot at advancing in the playoffs it's going to take the entire team, and we certainly won't win with Dak with him not having time. Why did Brady go to Tampa? It's easy, he knew that he would be protected. Another thing to consider is that Dak is going to look at what teams did this year and find ways to improve along with a better scheme to help him get rid of the ball quicker to open up the passing game..
At the end of the day, we're all fans of this team, so we have to look at whatever possibilities or scenarios we can to have hope and improve the team. Hey, if Big Mike improves the team, there is no reason we can't make another jump..
