Dak is quietly having a great year... he's been amazing...

Dude…I'm a HUGE Dak fan.
Considering how we acquired him, I think he's been great, so all's good with me.
And, I'm aware that Romo's moved on. Perhaps you should tell some of the others.
His year would be a whole lot louder if we'd been able to field an NFL-caliber defense in weeks 4-5.Dak is quietly having a great year... he's been amazing...
Yep...His year would be a whole lot louder if we'd been able to field an NFL-caliber defense in weeks 4-5.
You've moved on, yet, you keep bringing him up... Lol...
LOL at yourself.
The rate that WR's have passes go thru their hands and end up being intercepted is way less than the dropped INT's from defenders.
And even if you want to stop the 'excuses', he's on pace for a whopping 10 INT"s this season and 3 fumbles.

Nope, you made the initial claim. Post 2-3 probable interceptions per game. I will admit Dak had accuracy issues early on but this idea that DBs drop more of his passes than other QBs is......... hyperbole.
So what the hell is your point, Dak played at a lower level QB wise than most of the QBs that faced those defenses? I just updated my post to show you how every other QB that faced the Broncos D played. I'll copy and paste
As for other QBs against Denver this year
Tyrod Taylor - 76%, 8.2 average, 2 TDs, 126.0 QBR
Philip Rivers - 57.7%, 183 yards, 2 TDs, 105.1 QBR
Even Eli had one of his better games, QBR wise, but his throw attempts were so low it's not really bothering to bring up.
Derek Carr went out of the game early against them, but had a 100 rating, and 7.9 yards a pass attempt.
Let's compare it to Dak's stats
He had 50 passing attempts, averaged 4.8 yards a pass, 2 INTs, and a 68.6 rating
Try again.
I think you're making up this stat.
And guys don't typically have all that many dropped INTs by the defenders. Tipped INTs are quite common.
This is just something Dak needs to work on. He's been extremely fortunate in this regard, but you're trying to act like he's had bad luck.
Succeeded in beating a winless team?
That the expectations now? Weird expectations for "the next Tom Brady".
i can't imagine what you're like after a loss.....
In other words, it didn't happen.You made the claim it's hyperbole. Can you back it up?
If you want to say you're not sure about my claim, that's fine. But if you're going to make a counter claim, please don't go on about evidence if you're not providing any yourself.
I don't have access (nor the time) to go back and find all the plays. I admit I'm going off of memory. I've certainly made posts about it after/during individual games though.

Defenders are usually defenders for a reason...they can't catch.
Wide Receivers are usually WR's for a reason...they can catch. If they can't, they don't keep their job for long.
Defenders that drop passes still keep their job if they are good at covering, tackling, etc.
If you don't see how defenders are far more likely to drop a pass that should be an INT versus a WR that gets hit in the hands (not a tip) that ends up being an INT, then we have little to talk about as you're being obtuse and willfully ignorant.

But... you did read my posts right? I did post here, on this thread... yes?well off to bed, i have to get a wisdom tooth pulled tomorrow.
should be less painful than reading this thread which also robbed me of some wisdom....
