I take Watson any day of the week and twice on Sunday over Dak. Deshaun short-handed still makes his team better, that's the difference between an elite and a good QB. I did not see a drop off in WR production with Dak out, did you?
LOL! This will be fun.. Let's look at what you stated by the numbers..
In the 4 and a half games with Dak
Cooper 39 catches for 424 yards (10.8 ypr, 84.8 ypg) . 1 TD That's a pace of roughly 125 catches and 1355 yards.
Lamb 29 catches for 433 yards (14.9 ypr, 86.6 ypg) 2 TDs a pace of roughly 93 catches and 1386 yards
Gallup 17 catches for 348 yards (20.4 ypr, 69.6 ypg ) 1 TD a pace of roughly 55 catches for 1114 yards
Then in the 11 games since Dak went out
Cooper - 53 catches for 690 yards (13.0 ypr, 62.7 ypg) 3 TD yards per reception up by 2.2, yard per game down 22.
Lamb - 45 catches for 503 yards (11.2 ypr, 45.6 ypg) 3 TD yards per reception down 4 yards and per game by 41
Gallup 42 catches for 495 yards (11.8 ypr, 44 ypg) 5 TDs yards per reception dropped by OVER EIGHT yards.. yards per game by 25 ..
If you did not see the drop off in WR production it must have been because you were watching with your eyes closed. Their yards per catch all went down except for Coop and their yards per game dropped like a rock. This was sort of to be expected because Dalton simply doesn't push the ball down the field as well as Dak.. You would think with the shorter throws Dalton would have a higher completion percentage .. but he didn't. Despite averaging a full two yards less per attempt Dalton's percentage of 64.9 was markedly less than Dak's 68.0. I do love how you brin up Watson's greatness in a year where he "led" his team to 4-12 and a top 5 pick in the draft. I like Watson too.. but IMHO the only difference between him and Dak is he went to a more high profile college program. He put up some nice numbers this year.. while his team went 4-12. How often did we get reminded this year that stats don't mean diddly if they don't lead to wins? Or does that only apply to Dak? When other guys put up stats but lose it's cause their teams suck.. When Dak puts up stats but lose it's cause HE sucks.. right?
