Jaire Alexander's INT

[Sydla]

Worse is that CD behind Cooks has his man beat, just throw it to him

The homers were using Kurt Warner’s analysis to try to defend Dak on this but even Warner, in his typical diplomatic way, seemed to be perplexed as to why the ball wasn’t thrown to the open area outside Lamb.

 

[Sydla]

K......dude no one is arguing with you about Dak anymore. Why are you still microing his mistakes? (LOL)

Actually there are still fans giving him some level of pass for the game on Sunday.

There was another play, where Greg Olsen pointed out that he had Ferguson at the second level, when CeeDee was covered.

The back side view shows that Dak simply panicked and bailed pocket, as he saw the DL on the left side of Tyler Smith, but Smith had him completely in control,

It was a case of panicking when the first read to Lamb wasn’t there.

I want you to look at TWO THINGS:

1. On the first Tweet, pay attention to Dak the whole time and where he is looking. He is watching the action between Cooks and Jaire the WHOLE TIME.

2. Now look at the second Tweet and watch the actual action between Jaire and Cooks. It’s obvious that Jaire won the match-up.

Then ask yourself why in the hell did Dak throw it, knowing this fact?

BECAUSE HE was the first read, and when a player is the first read on ANY play be it if the defense is close, or hugged tightly on our WR/RB, we STILL throw it there!!!!

exactly, he can do no wrong

Look I hate Dak as much as the next guy.

but he was the second highest rated QB when making 2nd and 3rd reads

i dont know why he just plays like this in the playoffs

I like how all of a sudden INTs have sub categories now with Dak. Off the WR hands, wrong route, weather, sun in eyes, bad call by HC, poor OL, etc....don't remember Romo, Aikman and every other Dallas QB getting any benefit of the doubt on their INT....it was just marked as an INT and no freaking excuses. This one definitely on Dak and poor decision forcing the pass again to his primary receiver.

I wouldn’t say it was a bad decision. That play is only made by 2 maybe 3 corners in this league. Jaire being one of them. Most other corners are called for DPI there but Jaire is smooth

great point, this is where the arguing and immaturity comes from fans going back and forth. It is what it is

That narrative is false. Look I hate Dak as much as the next guy.

1. the OL pass blocking was top tier, masking Dak’s inefficiencies at reading the field. The advantage is for the WR, as DBs are not going to hold WRs for long, no matter how good the DB is.

2. If one gets to sit back in the pocket all day against garbage secondaries like the Eagles, who were the absolute worst team in third and down, the it’s not difficult to throw to another WR.

3. Breaking pocket and finding a WR when the play breaks down is not a second or third read.

Dak is garbage at processing the field. He’s always been like that.

He's the same guy people were saying wasn't going to play and have an impact on the game

#3 Seems to be our best offensive play, I hate it!

No he's not lol

He is looking at the safety and then the depth of the CB on CD. It's an automatic throw to the under, the WR has to win the route.

I love how people complain that Dak can't throw with anticipation and then when he does, but the WR doesn't get where he's supposed to be, the pick is his fault lol

It was horrible. Cooks was blanketed and it doesn’t matter the name on the jersey at that point.

LOL. Yeah it's just the playoffs.

He didn't look like this against the 49ers this year. Or the Bills.

Maybe he just sucks when he faces real teams.

 

[cowboys5xsbs]

It's literally a DPI and should have been called.

 

[DripTooHard]

Dak was missing wide open reads all day. Brother doesn’t have it.
