Josh Allen's nugget on Dak's $60M contract

[soopastar4]

Talent is what makes Allen turnover prone. He can make so many plays that other QB's can't that he sometimes makes a bad decision. Almost all super physically gifted QB's have similar issues.

Dak has no natural talent to be an NFL QB. No amount of coaching, superstar team around him, etc., will change that. Dak wasn't prone to turnovers early in his career because he wasn't willing to make NFL throws. When forced to do that, his turnovers go up

You cannot have the numbers dak has had without talent just a fact. This group of coaches coming in is the best he may have had yet. Kellen Moore was all but a rookie when he started running Dallas offense so the growing pains of dumb play calling definitely had some effect on Daks gameplay, yet he still was at the top of the league (top 5) at his position. Allen has always had good coaching so you can't say his talent would surpass bad coaching because you have never seen it, what you can say is he played bad with good coaching.

First, so all the other ho-hum QB's that are putting up huge numbers are true NFL talents?

Second, I said natural talent. Dak is manufactured, not natural. A lot of people have some talent, are smart enough or will work hard enough to learn to be a Dr. or lawyer or a professional athlete. But the ones who have a natural aptitude for it are the ones who set the bar higher. Manufactured doesn't do well when things go off script whereas those with natural instincts and skills flourish.

I am not saying Dak is great, but statistics say otherwise..... but I guess those are fake statistics right?

exactly...and everyone has a statistic to back up their claim.....everyone can find that narrow path to where they are proven right.

and then there is perception....which is stronger than reality and statistics put together.
