Looks about like what actually happened in the game

 

[jblaze2004]

Too many times he could’ve saved the game with his legs. I get he wants to preserve himself in a contract year but believe it or not we’d be more effective than the ravens on offense. He was just deadly at mississippi.

Kyler beat that 49er’s team with Mainly his legs yesterday.

I always said I wish the OC would come up with a more interesting scheme to utilize Daks legs more. Its like they think we still have Romo back there. Move the pocket. Look at the rams offense.

But in saying that we only lost by 3 and our defense played worst then the rams defense.

 

[pitt33]

Just go with Biadasz full time. I like Looney, but he is only really a scab.

Scab?

Don’t pick it. Let it heal on its own

 

[My3Sons]

D Poe & Ty Craw were weaker than circus lemonade. We never seem to get good DT play. The amount we spend VS the production out of those 2 is just criminal.

Ty craw gettin paid 8m for that lol. Are they hiring I can line up and get blown off the ball and I'll only charge 1m

 

[DallasInDC]

That's the issue Dak was clutch during his first two seasons leading comebacks and whatnot. So, what happened...where is comeback Dak?

Ref Corrente decided to erase a 47 yard reception after falling for Ramsey's flop.

 

[aikemirv]

Well you know these must not be right for Dak to be ranked top 5......all I read on here was how he was trash and they ready for Dalton lol......

Zeke had a damn good game though. Those seem to look like some terrible rankings but seems like Joe Thomas played above his head.

Seriously though-Dak 5th

just off the top :
Wilson, Rodgers,Mahommes,Jackson, Josh Allen

so then you got 7 oTher winners that he was better than....

was he even better than Goff -probably not

DT: A. Woods- 61.0 (43rd)
Hill- 57.6 (54th)
Ty Craw- 44.9 (80th)
D. Poe- 37.4 (87th)
Gallimore- 47.2 not enough snaps to rank

DE: A. Smith- 72.6 (20th)
DLaw- 52.1 (72nd)
Griffen- 33.7 (90th)
Armstrong- 56.1 not enough snaps to rank

LB: Joe Thomas- 58.7 (26th)
Vander Glass- 47.0 (39th)
Jaylon- 29.5 (60th out of 63)

Good News - ASmith good! Woods, Hill, Thomas, Armstrong respectable JAGs.

Bad News - DLaw worse than JAGs. Crawford, LVE bad. Griffen, Poe, Jaylon(29.5!) abysmal.

Free agent "quality" signings from other teams looking like uniform busts. McCoy, Poe, Griffen, Dix.

The returning guys we paid busted.

Best player ASmith - 1.35mil. No dline or LB making *more* than that was anything but bad news.

 

[bayeslife]

Dak being ranked that high is all the proof you need that the offensive line ruined that game

 

[bayeslife]

Seriously though-Dak 5th

just off the top :
Wilson, Rodgers,Mahommes,Jackson, Josh Allen

so then you got 7 oTher winners that he was better than....

was he even better than Goff -probably not

Goff threw 3 yard passes all game what are you on

 

[darthseinfeld]

Scab?

Don’t pick it. Let it heal on its own

You know what I mean though. He is the type of guy that can come into a game off the bench at a few spots and be passable. High end back up material. Starter? Not so much

Dak is the problem.

 

[buybuydandavis]

RB: Zeke- 82.7 Grade (1st)- Run grade 77.6 (4th)- 82.3 Rec grade (2nd)- 84.8 Pass Pro (1st)
T. Pollard- 66.6 not enough snaps to rank

WR: Amari- 71.3 (24th)
MG- 66.6 (40th)
Ceedee- 55.1 (72nd)
N Brown- 58.1 not enough snaps to rank
C Wilson- 56.7 not enough snaps to rank

TE: Jarwin- 52.0 (50th)
Schultz- 40.9 (56th)

Pollard tied with Gallup for 3rd of skill players.
Offense should be Zeke, Cooper, Gallup, Pollard, Lamb.

Schultz is *not* an option as the 5th. Keep him off the field.

Even without these numbers, Pollard is the only choice as our 5th man on offense. Just the best player available, *and* he's a great complement to Zeke in the run game.

PFF is low on CD. 9.8 ypt, 83% catch percentage. That's good. 107.6 QB rating when thrown to. Better than Cooper and Gallup. Cooper had a weak game. 10 of 14 for 5.8 ypt.

 

[aikemirv]

Goff threw 3 yard passes all game what are you on

His 3rd down play alone gives him the edge.

 

[dagreat1_87]

yeesh, those defense grades....

 

[plymkr]

"we like our guys..."

Too soon??

That's the biggest problem. We like our guys and our guys are average. Then we wonder why we are average every season. The FO talks up these guys that are average, pay them like superstars and then hope for superstar play. An average player is an average player no matter what you pay them or how you market them.

 

[buybuydandavis]

I said from the jump biadasz should get the start. I have zero faith in Looney

If Looney and Biadasz are comparable, Biadasz should get the push. Though with the horrible showing by Williams, maybe Biadasz replaces him.

Maybe Biadasz and McGovern.

 

[BotchedLobotomy]

Hmmm interesting to see Daks grade. I may be hard on him but he’s still better than about 85-90% of the league

The vaccine is kicking in

 

[aikemirv]

Goff threw 3 yard passes all game what are you on

Those turned into 14 yard per completion-I guess he made the right decisions
