Let's not forget about Kitna

[J12B]

Yes, Dak played excellent today. Most likely we can chalk that up to the new offensive scheme and play calls by Kellen Moore.

But, remember, this offseason Dak has been working a lot with new QB coach Jon Kitna.

Dak looked super comfortable in the pocket and when he had to make a couple of tight throws he was successful.

Dropped a dime to Gallup and the TD pass to Cooper was beautifully thrown.

I always liked Kitna's aggressiveness and Dak certainly looked aggressive today.

Nice job Kitna.

 

[stiletto]

I agree, glad he is there...

 

[PA Cowboy Fan]

I always liked Kitna.

 

[CF74]

Yes the mechanics were tremendously improved...

No offense to the current OC, finally a real QB coach is back on the sidelines.

kitna was probably the most important off season signing for this team. signing Kitna probably made Dak a lot of money.

Kitna didn't take the field. Dak's growth as a QB belongs to Dak. Kitna just put himself in the spotlight with all of his kissing up statements.

Coaches cant interact with players during the offseason and that's were Dak put in the work at.

I think Kitna had a great deal to do with Dak's improvement. That doesn't mean Dak shouldn't get 99% of the credit for his hard work, but I definitely feel like Kitna helped improve his mechanics.

 

[Teague31]

For two years my 16 year old daughter has been saying to me “Dak is fine he just needs better coaching”. Hmmm

 

[CyberB0b]

Dak fit it into tight windows, which was something he wasn't willing to do before. Pretty awesome to see.

 

[BoysfanfromCanada]

There was a zip to his passes, which floated to receivers on comeback routes last year.

Dak has worked with different QB coaches during the off seasons. First John Gruden then Tom Shaw. So Dak is spending his own money to make himself better. He gets more work in during the offseason than he does during trading camp.

I agree with you, Kitna might have helped but its mostly Dak. Got to respect a guy that spending his own money to train with guru's.

Not trying to discredit Dak's success but trying to make sure that Kitna is recognized as well after working with Dak in mini camp and training camp.

Dak looked great today. He was decisive and fit it into tight windows when needed.

 

[yimyammer]

Nice job Kitna.

I'm a big fan of Kitna and loved the hire

[CowboysDrew]

I don't think his contributions can be discounted.

 

[Oz-of-Cowboy-Country]

Kitna spent nine weeks with Dak and all of a sudden Dak's new found success is linked to Kitna. But wait a minute didn't Kitna spend those same nine weeks with Mike White? So if Dak's new found success is linked to Kitna then why isn't Mike White failures linked to Kitna.

The point I'm trying to make is Dak's very own determination should not be discounted. Dak has worked his but off to get to where he is now. And that work and determination started before Kitna even showed up.

So someone explain to me why Kitna's wizard magic didn't work on Mike White or Cooper Rush. He spent the same amount of time with them and Dak.

99% of the credit goes to Dak and his determination.

 

[GenoT]

No offense to the current OC, finally a real QB coach is back on the sidelines.

Keeping in mind that yesterday vs NYG was Jon Kitna’s first game as a QB coach at any level.

Just sayin’...

 

[noshame]

Kitna clearly corrected Daks delivery that Scott or Kellen messed with. Moore is now in the position he was born to do.

Totally. Dak's success belongs only to him.
