They are trying to make the case that passing yardage is a stand alone measure of a QB, and it doesn't matter about things like how often the team runs the ball, or QB rating, or total TDs or contributions as a running QB. I'll be the first to admit that the jury is still out on Dak, but this notion that his passing yardage tells the whole story is ridiculous.
I agree. His job is to run the offense and a big part of this offense is running the ball. There are things Dak needs to improve on from last season one he has to do a better job of avoiding the sack going from 32 in 2017 to 56 is a big jump and while I don't think it was all on him he needs to do a better job of getting rid of it or taking off if he has to. The 12 fumbles in which he lost 6 of them is a must area he needs to improve on, protecting the ball is a must. But I also think there were many things he improved on his yards per game went up from 207 to 242 last season, his completion rate went from 62.9 to 67.7 and his ints went down from 2017. I see a young QB who is still learning and developing, he did not sit for 3 to 4 season learning as Romo did, Dak was thrown in the pressure cooker day 1 and has faired a hell of a lot better than many QB who have came through Dallas.
