I disagree about Dak being horrible essentially the entire game. Sure he wasn't Brees level, but despite a slow start I thought he played well. As for those two passes for the big yards, first, it makes no sense to discard those, as if he didn't throw and complete those passes, second, every other QB gets credit for the yardage after the catch so why shouldn't Dak, and third, even if Cooper hadn't gained the yardage after the catch it was still a first down and the drive would have continued, likely with Dak throwing for more yardage.
Right. That's akin to saying Big Ben's 97 yard TD pass should be disregarded because it had 70 YAC? Or Zeke isn't any good because he rushing 15 times for a 3.5 YPC and then has a 60 yard run. Stats don't lie, but they certainly are misleading when looked at in a vacuum. A stat can be found that supports any story a person wants to tell.
