The Herd - Rating Dak

[Stash]

Probably never even been to a Cowboy game. Lol

 

[Diehardblues]

Can’t handle the truth.

Actually, it looks like Eagle feathers ruffled. I'm more than happy to talk about the fact that Prescott has outperformed Wentz. Thrilled in fact. What would I have to be upset about?



Obviously not. The thread title and conversation were about "rating Dak" maybe you missed that?

What's "too obvious to debate" are the facts that I presented. Dak has been better than Wentz.

Does than translate Dak is a better QB?

 

[Diehardblues]

Good. Maybe I’ve finally silenced the troll.

I sort of understand his point if you look strictly at numbers. But the reality is that NFL GMs look way beyond the numbers. All you have to do is watch both play.

Most of Dak so called stats are based on PA dinks and dunks...he will be remembered as one of the worst QB to ever play for America's Team as he has so many flaws out there that anyone with eye's in there heads can pretty much confirm the ineptness of his nature at QB....Throw your mud avoid reality but some of you will be happy if he goes 9-7 this coming season and consider it a success. Our Cowboy standards have reached a new low with Dak at QB.....Tostitos anyone?????

sorry, I don't want any of your Tostitos. Seems like they'd be too salty for me.....

Right. Numbers don’t always tell the whole story.

Numbers are only part of the story. They help provide a basis to evaluate but they aren’t the absolute gospel anymore than a QB on a Super Bowl team is greater because he has a ring.

There’s many contributing factors along with impactful events and circumstantial situations which comprise these conclusions.

When you look at things logically and without bias it's tough to disagree with The Herd. As he said numbers don't lie.
.

So Troy Aikman and Jeff George were equals then?

Right!! Lol

Dak is gonna make a lot of the anti-dak crowd cry this year

If Mount Rushmore can keep his jersey clean, you are correct.

 

[Whyjerry]

So if Daks stats continue without more team success you’ll be as supportive most likely?

I liked Romo. I will like Dak too if he continues to play well. The problem with the Dallas Cowboys is not the players. In the GM, the culture, and the JV HC.

I would agree . The culture created by our GM is very difficult for all to overcome.

Colin cow turd is a sports shock jock...flavor of the day guy. He doesn't know what he's talkin about over 90 percent of the time. Waste of oxygen.

You must not listen to him. He's one of the more knowledgeable guys on TV. Doesn't spew a lot of crapp, just has logical analyses and such. And has a segment of where he was wrong, and discusses why he was wrong.

Kinda silly to say this about him w/o watching him.

Often times I agree with him but it just grates my nerves listening to the guy. I can take a few minutes of him at a time and that is it.

I just have zero interest in listening to Sports radio, or News radio. I get enough inundation of information by the internet.

I'm a music guy. Shoot, I have the earphones on right now.

Why yes, I am left-handed!

 

[Diehardblues]

I enjoyed Collins show from its inception when he was on ESPN Radio in the morning and have his most recent book. He’s entertaining but I certainly understand he’s about provoking to sell airtime. We really shouldn’t take these personalities serious .

Since he’s moved to Fox I don’t get the opportunity to listen to his show and don’t like the format as much. And his pregame piece on Fox has become more commercial. He doesn’t even look comfortable doing it.

I feel strongly that Dak was the victim of far too many offensive weaknesses last year to foot the blame for the failure of the offense. The OL backups' pass protection problems and the anemic WR support were both hot garbage last year. It'd take a miracle for any 2nd year QB not to be adversely affected by such overwhelmingly poor conditions to make a much better contribution than Dak did last year.

I've noticed that his critics, by and large, prefer to ignore the stumbling blocks that he had to overcome. Big mistake. Those of you who have quick trigger fingers are likely to be both humbled and dumbfounded to see him doing so very much better this year, imho. I could be wrong but it seems to me that the cream always come to the top. Dak's rookie year was NO fluke. Our newbie WRs might take a while to come around but, I'm thinking things will turn out much more impressively as the 2018 season wears on. If I'm wrong, I'll be the first to admit as much.

 

[Captain43Crash]

Isnt it miraculous that Dak had none of these issues the first 24 games of his career. How is it possible for you people NOT to understand what happened to the team in game #25 that changed everything. Its the most laughably obvious set of circumstances you could possibly have.

Regress? LOL Wow its like you people didn't even watch the games.

You are 100% correct!! What’s hilarious is that many of the posters saying Dak regressed, also consistently post about Garrett’s offensive coaching flaws( predictable passing scheme, bad or no in game adjustments, etc.) If these fans would put 2 and 2 together they might realize Garrett( and injuries to Tyrone ) are the reasons Dak “regressed” the last 8 games of last year.

I’ll be the first one to say it. You will NOT be wrong. Dak will do his part. Hopefully, Garrett will do his.
