I watched that replay multiple times and people can make a case for both. you get your best WR with a LBer 1-on-1 with no help from safties, that's your read. and maybe he should have expected Hilton to come open, at the time he went back for the throw, pressure was coming and Hilton wasn't open then, hilton was open after the ball was in the air. so should he have expected hilton to get open? maybe. should he have thrown to CD, maybe. Warner made a great play. which is my question on Why CD couldn't beat a LBer and be more wide open.
Like Kurt Warner said, Warner was the read. Once the LBer takes off after Lamb Prescott should have eliminated Lamb and gone through his progressions. But Prescott didn't, he forced the pass. Prescott was making the wrong read and not executing during many plays in this game.

This play is an example of Prescott's poor play.

I don’t mind being wrong. But not in this issue. Lol your explanation is just one-sided failed
Well, when the blame falls on one player its becomes one sided. You provided no counterpoints to how it was not Dak’s fault. He went through no progressions and threw it to a receiver who was being zone covered by two defenders.

We will find out next year......see whose offense and team does the best.....Moore has a potential elite elite QB to mold now.

Dude, there was a maximum of two progressions he had to go through here here to see a wide open receiver. He zeroed in on the first. There’s nothing complicated about it.
again, you didn't read the whole comment. a lot of blame go around, including Dak. but I got you. you have an agenda. single person to point fingers to, it simplifies it for you

never said Dak didn't make a mistake. Dak missed it. Dak is not Elite. what's the point of hammering the known? stating the obvious? I don't get that!

but lets not forget, Lamb couldn't get separation from a LBer.

I think people forget McCarthy in all of this. Moore wanted to run his offense and based on few articles I have read, McCarthy wanted Dak to be aggressive and force the ball down field. given we had WRs that didn't get a lot of separation, I think to your point its a little bit of everyone. McCarthy and Moore not on the same page. Moore was forced onto McCarthy and he gave him a chance and it seems philosophies were not aligned. Moore made mistakes, which is to be expected from a young OC with all of 4 years of coaching experience. and Dak is not elite, so he also made mistakes. it was just not a good mix. this might be one of those situations that's best for everyone.
I completely agree. Well said

yet, here was Warner just saying the opposite of what you just said.... let me see do I believe Curt Warner a HOF superbowl winning QB or do I listen to an internet troll.

man that's a tough choice.
Not sure what Curt said, but there were numerous clips of Prescot's one look plays that were shown by numerous other FOOTBALL experts and each one was very critical of Prescot's play, where in the past they were in his corner. Prescot is a slug who isn't going to win any NFC championship games, let alone a SB.

Agreed. Dak made the right read. The MLB covering man on with your #1 receiver is where you want to go with the ball. Fred Warner is an all world athlete and made a helluva play. It had to be bang bang play with SF pressure already on him. Dak didn’t play well that night but this dude is nitpicking on one play where he actually made the right read…
So so wrong.

When Warner takes the first step to Lamb the right read is Hilton.

You guys thinking MLBer on WR you have to go to the WR. That's as dumb as Prescott's read.

The right read is the WR running down the other hash. Lead th WR to the inside, toward the post, and let him make a play.

Instead he throws it into coverage hoping his WR makes a play.

If you want your WR to make a play I know which option I'm going with. It's clear as day, but only the Prescott supporters are the one's that can't see it. Or see it but they can't and won't admit it.

Pause the video at 1:54

Hilton is just at the level of the DB playing in off-coverage.
- There is a Safety behind that DB.
- The read progression for Dak is right to left.
- The pass rusher got to Dak immediately after he released the pass.
- i.e. There was not any more time to progress to the point at which Hilton cleared the initial DB.

Receivers are only open if they get open at the correct time.

3 ex NFL QBs have already analyzed this play and didn't have an issue with Dak not throwing to Hilton.
Shhh...some people are either too ignorant or too biased to understand what is happening, when it's happening and why things ended up the way they did.

Let me think,
First, the offensive line wasn't good enough, then the receivers, the running back and he didn't have the best tight end in the NFL. The head coach was awful, aka garrett. Then it was the defense wasn't the number one defense in the universe. No number one receiver.
Yep, the offensive coordinator made Rush look like a good quarterback. No way it could be dak with these few issues. :muttley:

Surprised that Orlovski with all his knowledge and skill doesn't have a gold jacket.
.....might want to ask former Viking DE Jared Allen that question about knowledge. I'd ask are you going to apply for the OC job in Dallas....we like former Detroit players.

oh, I am not saying and have continuously said it, its not all one or the other. its some of one and some of the other. Moore had issues, Dak has issues. together the issues became exacerbated.
and if Dak isn't going to win a championship, then Jerry totally screwed up. I don't blame Dak. he is what he is. he is not screwing up purposely, he just can't do it. so why in the heck jerry signed him. why did jerry handicap this team, why does jerry continuously do that. we all focus on Dak, as he is the QB, but there is a lot of crappy players with large contracts on this team that don't produce and the rest of the team is got holes. people on this board love to hate dak and some love him and he is polarizing and topic of 80% of posts on this board.

but Zeke? Lawrence? Gallup? Cooper crap? on and on and on. we tend to get just good enough, then throw money at players and we like our guys and not able to make the right trades or sign FAs to build a team the right way. Rams did it. tampa did it. eagles did it, SF did it. we haven't been able to do it for 27 years.
