Pretend you have no idea who the QB in this picture is

[Fontaine]

The offense put up over 30 points. This was a defensive loss.

 

[khiladi]

nope.. Dak runs straight into the RDE and because of that goes “Kobe!”.. The ball is then tipped by the defender, because of Dak’s horrible pocket presence and mechanics running towards the RDE when he had a clear pocket from the Center. The ball is deflected towards Noah, meaning Dak is probably throwing behind Noah with his hips turned right and it then wobbles. As soon as Noah Turns, the ball is not in a spiral, but wobbling. That’s how it hit Browns hands, wobbling while he’s going down to the ground as the ball is lower than anticipated.

 

[Nav22]

What people fail to understand is how hard was the throw for it to bounce off the guy and right into the waiting arms of defender?

BAAAHAHAHAHAHAHA

"DAK'S FAULT!!!"

 

[Mr_437]

Yes, that interception was on Noah, but these guys think knowing this absolves other interceptions, it doesn't. QB1 has thrown enough picks to take blame for play.

 

[khiladi]

That pocket presence is just like this one here, but folks blame the fact he was hit on his arm.



well, you know why he’s “hit on his arm”? Because of his garbage pocket presence and horrible mechanics and inability to read the field. He has a wide open check down on his left, but he’s just staring down his right side reads. And he again does his double clutch pump that always causes him to throw late and completely inaccurate when Schultz is already the most open he is going to be.

So everything that leads up to the INT is flat out Dak’s fault period. It’s like when he stares down WRs making it easy for safeties to be in position to make a play.

"DURRRR WHY DID DAK RUN TOWARDS THE RDE!?!? COULDN'T POSSIBLY BE BECAUSE OF THE DEFENDER WHO GETS AROUND THE RT AND IS BEARING DOWN ON HIM!!!!"

Keep it up. Maybe the worst football analysis of all-time. Amazing.

Wow, he’s breathing down on him while being 3 yards away and behind him as the RT has driven him behind Dak.. and all Dak had to do is step up into the pocket where the center defense has no push,

Yes, that interception was on Noah, but these guys think knowing this absolves other interceptions, it doesn't. QB1 has thrown enough picks to take blame for play.

It's fine to acknowledge the INTs that have been on Dak.. particularly the unnecessarily aggressive throws over the middle .. Even if we believe the wide receiver could have fought harder for position, the QB has to be cognizant of the situation and not even think about make an "aggressive" throw on first down deep in your own territory or deep in the opponent's territory when you already are in FG range. But to then twist that narrative to "they're all his fault" is stupid and the territory of softheads. I know the net result for the team is the same, but to allow the unwillingness or inability to look at the plays critically and objectively invalidates the analyzer and thus the analysis. Dak sometimes makes bad throws.. Dak sometimes makes bad reads. Which makes him just like every other QB that has ever played.

 

[Fritsch_the_cat]

Dak leads the league in interceptions but none of them are his fault.

 

[Nav22]

Or... or... he could move to his left, which he did, in order to maintain a clear throwing lane to the WR.

If he stepped UP in the pocket, the angle to Brown is MUCH more difficult, and he'd have to loft it over the trailing DB.

I wish you luck with the worst take in the history of football. The ball hit the WR in the chest and you're trying to blame the QB. You're not good at this "football" stuff.

 

[Nav22]

This thread is about 1 specific INT.

Who was at fault for the 1 specific INT that this thread is about?

 

[Chuck 54]

Pretty much, 1st one he was getting hit as he was releasing the ball but as he said you take the sacks and move on, not throw the ball up for grabs. 2nd one no doubt hits his target, has the 1st down all Brown has to do is make the play.

1st int

I love Dak, but I still think, deep in your own end, 2nd and 18, you don’t force to a covered receiver under heavy rush….I think he was trying to do too much with a big lead.

That said, he played a great game yesterday, and despite the defense crapping away the lead, he led a long drive to retake the lead, and he had us close to a game winning FG and a first down if Brown simply catches that pass. That’s football. Dak will throw some bad passes, and receivers will drop some. When you think you have a great defense, you overcome, but yesterday seems to call for a change in thinking.

When Dak returned, all of us wanted the same offensive philosophy. Lean on the defense, run the ball, and win games with 20 points. Now we score 34 points, and somehow losing is Dak’s fault.

I agree with you. You're holding QB1 accountable when some guys are not.

 

[rambo2]

I already blamed the WR who performed a great volleyball dig to the other team...however, my first blame is to the FO for allowing said individual to masquerade as a #3 WR.

The one that caught 2 touchdowns and has been solid all year.

 

[Swagger]

Quite.
It's comical how many excuses are being reeled out for him.

I the Cowboys win 4 of the next 5 Super Bowls, you'll "blame" the FO for the one they didn't win...

People that are proud of their ability to make dumb comments are a sad aspect of society...

 

[xwalker]

And then I tell you this ball will get picked off and run back for a TD immediately after this still shot. Who would you blame for that?

Now, who have you been blaming knowing who threw the ball?

The answers to these questions may provide some insight into your bias

Noah Brown had been the player of the game up to that point...

 

[khiladi]

Or... or... he could move to his left, which he did, in order to maintain a clear throwing lane to the WR.

If he stepped UP in the pocket, the angle to Brown is MUCH more difficult, and he'd have to loft it over the trailing DB.

He didn’t just move to his left, he moved to his left and UP towards the line.

And you sound like a clown, because if he stepped up, Brown still wouldn’t have been at that spot where he threw it. Dak is running left and up while Brown is running left.

Well, it did end up being the touchdown winning pass

 

[Fritsch_the_cat]

Who was at fault for the 1 specific INT that this thread is about?

Well it certainly wasn't Dak.
