Michael Irvin explains how INTs vs Packers were not Dak's fault

[America's Cowboy]

Dak could throw 5 pick-6's and you would still defend him.

No. I only defend him passing you off. It's so amusing and entertaining. Quite relaxing actually.

 

[nate dizzle]

Interceptions aside, Dak was wildly inconsistent yesterday. He was good at times, bad at others. The bad came at the worst times. The start of the game and the end of it

 

[starfan1]

Mike is a cheerleader

How about not making the throw period?


The HC already blamed Dak for the first one. Nothing to see here

You mean the same head coach that went for it in overtime

ya I see why you would deem him more credible ( insert sarcasm emoji).
You sir would agree with anyone that blames Dak

I’m not 100% certain who was at fault but McCarthy and his decision making has contributed to enough losses for this team to question his judgement

 

[lukemartin79]

Same clowns who complain about Dak holding on to the ball and not anticipate are now complaining he should have held on to the ball until he saw the receiver become fully open.

You can't make this stuff up.

People are making it out like those 2 INTS cost us the game. We were winning by 4 in the 4th, long after this picks. I don't remember Dak being on the defense that allowed 14 points in one quarter, which at one point this year they were allowing the whole game. lol

We should be thanking Michael Irvin for the clarification and education.

Twice for Lamb in consecutive games not coming across the face of the S.

 

[MarionBarberThe4th]

Prescott was his usual bum self in this game. He elevates nobody around him. He's an anchor you must carry.

Both can be true. The defense let us down AND the QB is a fraud.

What’s obvious is he’s just not seeing the field.

he was told the play would work so he threw it

With Rodgers thumb that’s the kind of game wherein if you can get up 14-0 it might get out of hand early. The only way the packers are even in it is Bc your qb gifted them 14 points early in the game.

get up early and it’s a Rodgers beat down Micah gets his stats everyone’s eating it’s a party

 

[streetcredit]

Dak has 3 int that were due to the receivers running bad routes, were these the only bad routes? did it happen when Rush was the QB? We either have a lot of bad routes out there or Dak seems to find the wr that's running the wrong route or WRs run better routes with Rush as the QB.

Or you can hold a 14 point lead for 15 minutes and win like a normal team, lol - that would work too

 

[Brooksey]

Dak was bad besides the one throw to Cee Dee lamb in the 4th: Ugly passes on third down, in the dirt or uncatchable over the head all day, plus the picks. Not good

 

[tomsanders921]

Same thing on the first. Schultz didn't run his route correctly, thus failed to carry the Safety with him in order to clear out the middle for the trailing CeeDee. That was a timing pattern that would have worked if Schultz had run his route correctly.

Just because Schultz ran his route wrong doesn't mean Dak still has to throw the ball.

He has to see that as the play is progressing. Dak forced it.

Olsen explained both clearly at the time, in a manner even the slow people should have been able to comprehend!

 

[Cowboysheelsreds053]

And? Are you happy? Seriously. Are you ecstatic that INTs, including those cause because of the receiver, goes against a QB? What exactly are you trying to say here?

that the int still goes against the QB even if the receivers ran the wrong route. No not happy about the int but that is the way it works. Just like coaches get the win and losses regardless of how the team plays.

 

[terra]

Can't handle the truth, education and clarification from The Playmaker?

You would not know the truth if it slapped you in the face
I love Micheal but he truly is the biggest Cowboy Homer around.

 

[MountaineerCowboy]

No. I only defend him passing you off. It's so amusing and entertaining. Quite relaxing actually.

It's pretty sad that we lose in embarrassing fashion to a 3-6 team and all you can do is laugh at people that expect better QB play.

 

[Cowboysheelsreds053]

I have my reservations about Dak, but if it’s a timing route and the ball is supposed to be thrown early, before a break, it totally matters if the receiver runs a crappy route, they are more to blame than the QB. That’s why Aikman and Irvin put all them reps in…timing.

Oh I agree with you but the receivers are not going to end up with the int on there record but I agree with the statement. Troy and Mike just had it down like that. Some seem to think the int will come off the QB record because the route was ran wrong.

 

[Xeven]

Dak brain is in panic mode every play unless it is a quick pass. He lacks ability to scan and process what he is seeing fast enough. Not sure you can fix that. He does better when he knows where and when he will throw before the snap.

sometimes he gets enough time to calm his mind and get off a good pass. Some of us just not wired for Pro QB Hall of Fame play but he got paid like he does. He is Tim Tebow with a job.

 

[G2]

I'm not blaming it all on Lamb, they should have it figured out by now.

 

[CWR]

Can't handle the truth, education and clarification from The Playmaker?

Cmon man, what would a hall of fame wr know about running routes? Apparently, he is ONLY a cheerleader for Dak and not the pass catchers, which is weird considering he played WR.

 

[USArmyVet]

Interesting that people latch on to one tweet and repost it over and over again, while starting new threads, in an effort to defend Dak. To each their own but defend the fact that after Dallas went up 28-14, here is what Dak did the rest of the game including OT:

6 of 14 for 58 yards

Not exactly doing much to assist Dallas in winning the game down the stretch.
