Opinion: Dak can’t throw a football more than 10 yards

[Mannix]

LOL. We going here?

How about the "Accuracy" competition this off season when Dak beat out Justin Herbert? Does that make Dak more accurate than Herbert? Or is it just a stupid competition that these guys dont actually take seriously? Ask yourself that question.

Somebody doesn't want to take off Dak's letter jacket just yet.

 

[cowboyec]

bull.
so sick of this crap deep in the season.
get behind your team or go root for some body else.

Hey OP, Poppycock x10!!

 

[Jarntt]

THAT'S play calling or imprecise route running.
We've got to design plays to get receivers past the sticks on third and short.

Wrong. Stop looking to blame Moore for everything. There were plenty of guys that ran routes further than the first down markers on those plays

Dak Prescott struggles throwing the ball downfield: Prescott isn't the problem with the Cowboys offense, but the unit is lacking explosiveness because of his issues stretching the field. On passes of 10-plus air yards, Prescott went 6 of 13 with an interception (55.9 rating) -- one week after going 1 of 8 with a 0.0 rating.

Prescott has completed just 51.1% on the season with passes that went for 10-plus air yards with four touchdowns to eight interceptions (66.4 rating). On throws for 25-plus air yards, Prescott has completed just 21.4% of his passes with a 31.0 passer rating. ”

lol! What? Hey, Dak has his faults but throwing downfield is not one of them. I've seen some great throws downfield and some were when he was on the run!

 

[Mannix]

He threw a 50 yarder to Noah Brown…so there is that.

Didn't you mean to say underthrew???

 

[erod]

Dak just threw a 50 yard bomb to Brown last game and a 68 yard bomb to Pollard against Minnesota. Dak is taking what the defense gives him. Teams are playing the two deep safeties defense you don’t beat that with the bomb.

He is throwing into coverage frequently at an alarming rate.

Where do they come up with this bs?

It really is quite something...i think they have one of the posters here working for them.

Lol that’s what you got from it. Interesting. So I guess Dak is more accurate than Herbert then. By your very own logic.

How long was that rollout to lamb the other week on the sideline?

I don't know? Maybe five yards?

Dak is the highest paid player in Cowboys history, yet his haters continue to let him live rent free in their head.

 

[IslandCowboy]

Stopped reading after you said that Dak isn't the problem with the offense. Yes he is. He might not be the only problem, but he is certainly the biggest bottleneck holding us back.

continue to let him live rent free in their head

Such a stupid saying. Do they at least have to pay utilities?

Must have been negative yardage

You do realize the Cowboys rank between 1st and 5th in yards gained, points scored, yards per play, third down conversions, and red zone offense since Dak came back, right?

And that Dallas would be undefeated if they didn't melt down late at Green Bay?

That they scored nine offensive touchdowns with Cooper Rush and 33 since?

Yes, Dak is really a problem.

 

[MizzouCowboy4]

I'd much rather Dak throw it within ten yards anyway to reduce the risk of INT's and taking the easy yards. No sense in throwing into double coverage.[/QUOTE




@Avery spot on

You asked what was he doing there? That suggests you're talking about the wide receiver/tight end.
If you are, then it's the receiver's fault because if you're talking about Dak, he shouldn't have been beyond the line of scrimmage except to run.
If you're talking about why Dak was five yards down the field, then it's a very awkward sentence because Dak wouldn't be looking to pass then.

 

[JayFord]

How do people figure Dak is the problem of this offense?

here are his faults

sometimes he gets antsy in the pocket and tries to squeeze through lineman which results in a sack

he has a habit of throwing it into where there is excellent coverage

but you know what?
guess what

Josh Allen does the same
Patrick Mahomes for all his greatness he overthrows a receiver EVERY GAME

quarterbacks make mistakes

but aint no team sitting at 10-3 if the qb play is as bad as yall be saying

 

[reddyuta]

deep throws are risky nowdays with teams keeping both safeties back unless you have a real burner.
