Mike Fisher on Dak helping this offense by being a runner!

[SteveTheCowboy]

I didn't post the initial post, so it's not my job to verify anything. Plus, I'm literally feeling very sick today. Very bad day. Almost called 911.

All right...you take care of yourself.

Yeah...maybe don't verify every single thing. But maybe go easier on the rubbing of noses in it?

I don't want to limit anything a player can do to help the team but Dak tore his hamstring running, no contact. Just needs to be careful

It's just an added dimension. Hence my preference for cheap, young, QBs that you *can afford* to run because they don't have zillions in unrealized cap hanging over them.

Passer + Runner *you're uninhibited about running* >Passer + Runner > Passer

added dimension, it would surely help!!!!

I was told Trance can run really well, how did that work out?

No idea what this means, but I'm not telling anyone anything, just showing the stats.

 

[LovinItAll]

That is wildly wrong. By a lot.

In 2023 he ran for 242 NOT 442 yards.

Obviously a typo, as he would've averaged over 8 yards/carry. The 55/4.4 per carry is correct, which is the main stat. He's running the ball at the same clip and producing similar results as in his first few seasons, though he did it without an RB and a much less skilled OL.

Dak isn't and has never been a running QB. If we're to believe announcers, the team discourages him from running often and they want him on the ground when he does take off.

 

[LovinItAll]

Lol too funny

Is it, though? The number of carries and average per carry are correct, as 440+ would've been an 8+ yards per carry average. The number of yards he ran for wasn't the point, but rather the number of rushes and his average per rush, which are correct.

 

[LovinItAll]

No. His information is incorrect. In 2023 he only ran for 242 not 442 yards. Almost half less of what he posted.

All the doubters/critics are still right.

Yep, the total was incorrect, because that would've been over 8 yards per carry. The number of carries and the average per carry are correct, which is the main point of the post.

Try again.

It really wasnt

5 years ago I’d be onboard. Not sure Dak can survive another bad hit while running. Body seems to be giving out last few years. Not as bad as Romo was in his early 30’s but definitely can’t be considered a rookie workhorse anymore.

Here are Dak's rushing stats for his career (#/yards/avg, by year)

2016: 57/282/4.9
2017: 57/357/6.3
2018: 75/305/4.1
2019: 52/277/5.3
2020: 18/93/4.2
2021: 48/146/3.0
2022: 28/182/4.0
2023: 55/442/4.4
2024: 13/54/4.2

His last full year, 2023, was the fourth-best rushing year of his career, so saying 'he isn't even close' is a stretch. Also, in his three best years, he had prime Zeke and a great OL, which both pulled defenders away from him and gave him better running lanes.

Dak has never been a rushing QB unless you consider <3.5 carries/game a 'rushing QB'.

Dak's ability to rush the ball will not impact the team's success or lack thereof.

I prefer my QB's to be able to throw the ball.

 

[ChronicCowboy]

Dak’s athleticism has been really hampered by his injuries and age. Everything that made him a dangerous QB is gone. He’s basically a pocket QB now, with average throwing ability and mediocre pocket presence.

Tough battle for bigger POC between Fisher and Dak

My vote is for both

We are doomed if we need Dak to run.

 

[GimmeTheBall!]

I hope Dak runs more.

I’m excited to see what Milton can do.

Ouch!

That ship has sailed.

So your $60 million QB should run? Absurd/

 

[OGSixshooter]

Yeah that does contradict a lot of the “he can’t run anymore” statements…..

2,4,6,8...who we do we appreciate?

LOL...wow...

2,4,6,8...who we do we appreciate?

LOL...wow...

You mad at the co-signer but not the person who made the statement is wild lol.

I prefer a QB who can throw the ball.
