Is he the best? Is he the most talented? I don’t think so.
Is he playing the best of anyone in the NFL since the SF game? Not sure if he’s playing better than Purdy, but no one is playing better than he is.
Did he rebound better than Hurts from a SF beat down? Oh yes.
Let‘s just say,
- He played better with less in the Kellen Moore offense than Herbert.
- He has certainly taken off under McCarthy’s offense and needed attention to detail. So have all the receivers.
- Dak is a very talented QB, but he finally has an offense and a coach that fits him.
The rest is just rhetoric. The great QBs are not worse this year. They are simply going through what Dak has been through.
- Injuries
- Lack of protection
- Poor receiving corps
- Bad coaching
- Bad defense
I love Dak as our QB and supported him when the team was a few stars nd a mess. Too many fans wanted him to take the team on his shoulders and will the team to win. That’s BS; no QB can do that without blocking, occasional short fields, at least 2 very good receivers + TE, and blocking.
Dak will have games that look poor in the future at some point. Hopefully fans will look at the whole offense and the defense on the other side before laying all the blame on the QB. He’s certainly capable of playing a bad game, but sometimes a bad game by the QB must be shouldered by others.
