What’s the most important position on the field? From a player perspective, that’s where you start. You can put 21 all pros on the field and the top coaching staff in the league, nothing changes as long as Dak’s under center.
Well that's not exactly true but it is also proven - over and over again every year - to be an unsustainable model.
They don't have to run for their lives if they have WRs who can beat man coverage quickly.
dude, when the O line cannot consistently give him that time then its not going to matter how good the WRs are
The point is that, by having WRs get open quick, you can compensate for lesser OL play. The passblocking standard is ~2.5 seconds - you don't need a great OL to hit that mark if there are players open. Good WRs beat man coverage quickly, that is what makes them good. It is precisely why Adams and Cooper just got acquired.
You seem to think this O line is giving him close to 2.5 which clearly is not happening consistently
Ok? You're making my point for me.
Ummm...Dak has performed and performed WELL when he's had a better OL and a run game. Those are facts (even if he didn't do well in the playoffs). So, again, just replacing Dak does NOTHING to make the running game or run defense better, no matter how bad he's playing.
2-5…nuff said. If you can’t see it, it’s the end of this discussion.
Because every loss is on him and him only...got it. When the Ravens ran for 274, that was all on Dak...got it. When GB scored TD's on damn near every drive, that's all on Dak...got it. Yeah, your right, I can't keep talking to folks that refuse to see that this team has a MILLION MORE PROBLEMS than just bad QB play.
What are Dak’s strengths as a QB? It doesn’t matter if you fix every other issue if he’s still under center.
For all I care, Dak has NO STRENGTHS!!!!! So, I'll ask the question ONE MORE TIME...does removing Dak fix your porous OL? Does it make the run game better? Does it fix your horrific defense? Yes or no? Like I've said MANY TIMES on this forum, I could've cared less if they let Dak walk and gotten a new QB. But, again, what is happening now is NOT due to ONLY Dak's play.
Pro bowl center that was too weak, and the HOF LT that should have retired 3 years ago!
I never said Dak was the only problem. Do you remember how this conversation got started? Jerry is the first elephant in the room. Dak is the second. Fixing the o-line does nothing if Dak is still the QB. How hard is that to comprehend?
Both have just propped up their scoring averages against terrible defenses, especially Buffalo, who has 10, 20 and 23 points (BAL, HOU, NYJ) in the last 3 weeks. The evolution is in trading for a guy like Amari - it is an admittance that they need more receivers because they know the offense does not function properly.
