Sophomore Slump This

[ActualCowboysFan]

Highest passer rating in first 16 games.

In his rookie year... lol

 

[DFWJC]

That was one seriously efficient rookie year.
We are really fortunate, folks.
Pretty much a seamless transition (barring 2015) from one excellent QB to potentially another.
One of the harder things to do in sports.

I think Dak is for real. A 2nd year should prove it.

That's in relation to all of their first years. They then went on to play in the SB the following year

I know it is not fashionable to worry about Prescott and a real fan would just assume that he will continue to build upon his rookie season, but this puts it into perspective.

He has to really work to do this again. If he gets over this hump, damn, we've got ourselves a QB.

It will be tough. Hope he is up to the challenge.

the good news is, none of the other guys on the list were failures.

Beastly was a major reason why:



Then they drafted his kid brother:



I'm betting he's a pro bowler again this year.

The Kurt Warner thing isn't very accurate. Warner only threw 11 passes his first season and had a 47 passer rating. He started all 16 games in his second season (shown in the image in the OP) and went on to win the Super Bowl. The following year, the Ravens beat the Giants in the Super Bowl, and the year after that, Warner lost to Brady in the Super Bowl.

It's true that he had the highest passer rating in his first 16 games and started the Super Bowl in his 2nd season, but that happened in the same season. The others were guys who had great rookie seasons and went to the Super Bowl in their sophomore seasons (and Marino was the only one to not win).

Good news is, he's in position to succeed.

We go 3 WR.... Teams are forced to go nickel to cover. They will have six defenders in the box against 5 OL and a TE.... Elliott will feast.

They try to stay in base defense, Witten and Beasley run option routes all day long. Prescott plays pitch and catch with easy reads.

I know its not as simple as that... But it's some seriously epic stuff for defenses to face our offense with the weaponry.

They might as well cut Wucky Lighthead now..........The Switz is the real deal.

When they showed that stat, they also said...and here is the kicker...all those QB's played in a SB in their 2nd year, and 3 of them won it.

 

[Screw The Hall]

Highest passer rating in first 16 games.

That's a damn trip.

 

[ActualCowboysFan]

That's a damn trip.

Really puts the whole tank the season crew in a new light.

I think that's the entire point of this thread

He had a rare rookie season last year.

My fear is that it was that. Rare.

There will unquestionably be regression, otherwise he is pretty much a future Hall of Famer.

Where is Nick Foles? 100.5

Number 6 (or 7 if you accurately include Foles) is almost certainly RG3 - 99.6

The gimmick guys didn't make the cut. Btw running the ball isn't a gimmick but keep ******* that chicken.

Facts ruin narrative - can't counter with valid argument - make excuses and lame joke.

Yep, par for the course.

Well said my friend.

Nick Foles had a 98 rating in his first 16 games. You were saying something about facts.
