PFF Gives Dak Bad Grade

This is so funny. You guys act like it was a 1 point game. It wasn't. The offense put up THIRTY in a game you claim Dak was "iffy". And won by 2 TDs and it wasn't even that close. Winning by a FG is "escaping with a win" which is the kind of language you guys are basically using.

 

That's easily one of the most ridiculous things I've ever read.

Furthermore, Rodgers was just bad. Does the defense get credit for him overthrowing Cobb in the endzone when he was WIDE open ? Does Church and the defense really get credit for simply catching a ball Rodgers threw right to him ?

The idea that this was a close game that Dak's ineffectiveness almost cost them is laughable.

 

2 fumbles, one recovered by the defense. One INT at the what our 15 yard line? Not sure he "almost lost it", but he put our defense in a lot of bad spots yesterday.

 

Like I said, the data is worthwhile. The grades are garbage.

 

Listen, I love what Dak has done, but you can't be blind to his mistakes. That wasn't a good game for him grade wise and shouldn't have received a high grade, but yes he did enough to win. I personally want Romo back sooner than later, but very very glad we have Dak. Elliot and other guys added has made this team a better team than last year, at least on offense.

You guys say these things about Romo while failing to realize this is a team game and there's so many other factors. If we wouldn't have had Romo all these years we'd found ourselves occupying the basement every year for years because that's how bad our team was.

 

what's the difference between a 1 + 15 team and a 15 + 1 team who doesn't make the Super Bowl? Nothing.

 

I am going to have to disagree with you here. I think we have a different take on what PFF is trying to do. None of your suggested improvements really fix anything. They just change what you're trying to capture. You're asking them to add box score metrics into their grade, which is the exact opposite of what they're doing. There are some advanced box score metrics you might like more than the PFF grade, but I very much appreciate that that's not what PFF is doing.

 

An enjoyable holiday season?

 

Who cares about grades and rankings?

Who cares about the occasional int or fumble?

Dak had some perfectly clean games with no TDs; yesterday he had a lost fumble and an INT, but he also threw 3 TDs and took some shots.

We won going away. I'll take that any day. To be honest, if we keep winning, I'm fine without Dak getting top billing. I'm fine keeping his contract and future contracts under control. Just win the game in any way possible. I could care less about stars. To be honest, despite all we've seen from Dak and Elliott, this is a team game, and right now we have team chemistry playing just as big a role as those rookies.

 

Wow...I see the point you're making, but it's still ridiculous.
I lived through every game of Jimmy's first year at 1-15, and believe me, 5-11, 8-8, even missing the playoffs, are all different. The SB isn't the only thing.

 

Again, 1 fumble lost.

 

Tell me what's more important than the Super Bowl?

 

My grades so far for him per game....

Giants: D
Redskins D+
Bears C-
49ers D+
Bengals: D
Packers D-

I'm grading him on a rookie curve. Drop it down a letter grade for a veteran.

 

I said it, I meant it.

 

He had a rough game, still a ridiculous rookie.
