I don't think so. I think he simply changed his name a few times.
Right, but still used several different ones. I didn't mean he necessarily used several at once, though in retrospect, he may have used two at once, or people suspected as much at the time.

Dak is now "Elite" after abusing the 26th 31st 32 defenses so far in the NFL.

Dang Elite has been taken to new toilet levels with you Dak-Zoids....

P.S. Look on the bright side this week he faces the 28th ranked defense without Brees.:muttley:

Lol the sad thing is Mommy believes this. I'm shocked he still shows his face.



One of the main reasons these three defenses are so low in total defense? 33% of their schedule has consisted of playing our offense. Of course Mommydog didn't see the correlation when posting, but it's pretty damn obvious.

Yeah, if someone wants to make that claim about Brady or Mahomes, OK, I can understand. But a limited bus driver backup type?

Not believing in a player is understandable. Happens to all of us. But to continue to bash in the face of extreme success is just really pathetic.
But you knew that was coming, it's just like when Romo was playing well, Faulk played the "just wait" card.

For some reason, Prescott has been pretty polarizing on the forum which is really strange for a QB with a 66% win and 2 of 3 division titles. And they didn't lose those playoff games because of him.

And anyone that followed Linehan knows he's not a QB fixer, he let Stafford just gun sling it. Two young coaches have their ponies tied to Prescott's wagon and Aikman has a lot of company in that "accuracy is the hardest problem to solve" thinking and we have all of the failed young QB's to prove that. They're going to get noticed if his improvement continues because all of those men look at film, they knew how to attack Prescott.

I am not playing that "just wait" card but I want to see this against better competition and Prescott under the pressure that negatively affected him in the past before I say he's all the way over that hump. He's got a strong line of DC's and D's coming up, more Prescott will be revealed. But this new and improved one looks really good now.

Agreed, your initial evaluation was very far off.

That's what we told you then, and it's even more obvious now.
And all of yours have been dead on? Why in the hell do posters have to play this game?

There are lot of doubters about Prescott being worth top 5 money and/or being a top 10 QB and I was and until I see it against better competition, I am not 100% all in on him. There's no question he has improved and I would give credit for that to him, Moore and Kitna but most of all to Prescott. He had to retrain habits that were ingrained in him from high school on, the reason why he couldn't win the starting job without injuries to the QB1's. But the fact that he never gave the job back spoke more about him than the way he got the job.

Is it alright with everyone here if posters are allowed to change their opinions, based on new information, without ragging on them about what they thought based on the old information?

What they failed to take into account is that there are different reasons for a QB being inaccurate. There are those who are simply not very accurate, but Dak was never one of those. He had bouts of inaccuracy due to some bad habits and a terrible scheme. He desperately needed a better OC/QB coach. As soon as he got that, issues started clearing up.

Dak has clearly improved, regardless of who he's playing against. He's routinely making throws he had difficulties with just last year. The question is, will he sustain this ability against better defenses or forget to concentrate on his footwork and such?[/QUOTE]

Bridge water > Dak
@atlantacowboy said Bortles > Dak
Winston > Dak
Foles > Dak
@Diehardblues said Flacco was more of a prolific passer than Dak

You name a starting QB in the league and some backups and at some point there was a thread saying that they were better than Dak
Seriously? The only thing Flacco has ever been prolific at is impregnating his wife.

So, if we lose Moore Dak could return to his old traits?

This is all about the OC/QB coaches? And not the additional supporting cast, our opponents, etc. I felt it’s several contributing factors?

We basically have QB’s around the league simply needing better schemes and play calling?

[/QUOTE]And regarding the forum, will they allow him the bad game they all have? Last year, Brees was terrible in the Cowboys game and I've seen Rodgers struggle and if a team can crash Brady's pocket, he returns to earth. They all get different when they start getting hit.

I am interested in this game against the Saints and the Packers but it's not to see if he's for real, is the team for real? A better D should make a QB look worse, make him struggle more. And do the Cowboys have a good enough D to cause that as well.

I am a little less "they have to surround him with top talent" than I was last season. I've always thought he's good enough to get it done with the right support buy felt he was not a team lifter, needed to be lifted himself. And that does not seem to be the case any longer. He will struggle, he will have some bumps but they all do.

But yet we’ve surrounded Dak with the most talent since at least his Rookie season when we had a top 5 offense and earned Rookie of the year.

Yes, he appears to have elevated his game but we can’t dismiss the additional talent we’ve added in Cobb, Wittens return, Cooper from the onset and a pretty good Rookie in Pollard. Not to mention Freddie’s return and this OL as healthy as it’s been since 2016.

Throw in a fresh OC and play calling there’s definitely some contributing factors to elevate his game. And 3 of the worse defenses to boot.

The funny thing about the Bridgewater slobberers here is that his entire career he's displayed the things they complain about Dak for, but MUCH worse!

Fewer yards per game, fewer touchdowns per game, fewer yards per attempt, fewer yards per completion, eats pointless sacks at an even higher rate. Dink-dunk short arm specialist 24/7 to a level Dak never sank to even in 2017, but we've got jabronis who hate Dak who are talking him up? LOL OK, way to expose yourselves right there.

Bridgewater's best season literally looks like Dak's worst season, except that Dak threw more touchdowns.and also had way yards and touchdowns on the ground.
