I know exactly what kind of response this thread will get.
And that is fine.
But weeks ago when the Elliott suspension looked real, I pointed out we really did not have a big enough sample size without Elliott to make a determination about Prescott's future prospects. A lot of people got angry.
Now, after three games, we have a sample size. It is basically a quarter of a season.
To me, he looks like he has had the benefit of scripted starts since he came into the league. You just can't go from dangerous to inept with the loss of one player.
I don't care about the Sean Lee and Chaz Green arguments.
Look at the player and what he is doing.
I am pretty concerned. To the point that I believe he can't play without Elliott behind him.
The thing that bothers me at this stage is if it is the player or this staff's inability to adjust his game.
I realize it is next to impossible to do this after preseason, as it is set, but it still bugs me.
All I can say is that this season is over.
And we will be left with this QB question at the end.
As a fan of Dak, I share some of your concern and am starting to worry about him, but as of right now this offseason we have many more pressing needs than QB such as:
1. entire coaching staff needing replaced: these schemes are too simple, lack of adjustments, players are never ready for situations in games, we are never fully ready for injuries which do happen, lack of respect for detail
2. Wide Receiver: Dez is not the same guy and the guys behind him are having the same problem and that is being they are not able to break coverage and get open. Need a #1 WR
3. Linebacker: Lee is the guy, but without him we are like dumbfounded. Need a guy or two that can outright play and not just fill in. Jaylon Smith may be still raw and getting better, but I still think we could use one more.
4. Tight End: Witten is starting to show his age in his speed. We need to find a guy that can replace him.
5. Defense: young guys in secondary, and on dline could possibly use more help.
This team will not be able to fix this team entirely through the draft so it will have to work free agency and not just for 3rd string depth but actually spend a little money.
I think as long as we have a cheerleader for a coach, we will be stuck on this rollercoaster of mediocrity.
