Interesting...must be why he is 2nd in the NFL in Total QBR and tied for most Tds in the league. POOR. I know...stats...lol pesky things when they don't support your in depth football analysis.
You're such easy fodder. Fantasy football man! Lol

I'm puzzled. What chapter holds the instructions for the crucifixion of a second year QB because he isn't prime Aaron Rodgers? Someone who claims to understand football surely should understand the steep learning curve of any young QB, even the greats. One that Dak is well ahead of, mind you.

yes...my fantasy football team is actually 5-0 with Dak at the helm...lol
Mine is 4-0. Would have been 5-0, but I played Wentz instead of Dak, who was 5 point worse than the Carson One.

Why do people bring up QBR as though it means anything? Its a stat that an unknown weight is a completely subjective assignment of points by potentially biased ESPN employees, and frankly is on the same level as PFF grades.

I don't think Dak is the 2nd best QB in the league, and I agree that QBR is obviously imperfect. My point is that I don't think Dak is really having a sophomore slump. His play has hardly been worse with worse performance from the O line.

Withot a doubt Dak is a HUGE reason for optimism for the future. Now we just need to field a respectable Defense, so his career isnt wasted like Romo's. I personally think it is on the way and they know it needs to happen. The rookie Dbs who all look to have potential are the beginning. A lot more pieces needed. Lbers, ball hawk Safety, etc.

No he isn’t. He was amazingly top 4 in the NFL in each of the major efficiency stats last year (passer rating, completion percentage, interception percentage and yards per attempt. This year he is 13th, 16th, 15th and 23rd. He does have more on his plate than last year, a worse surrounding cast and a harder schedule... but even the most hardcore Dak slobberers can’t explain away that kinda drop.


He looked really good yesterday. The only time he looked bad was when he threw the ball while falling back or failing to square up. Otherwise he was pretty damn good yesterday.

My boys a baller. On pace for 40 total TDs... with no line and a **** running game. What was that bull**** people were talking last year about he's a manager, getting carried by his running game? And to think people on here were asking for him to be replaced just last week... bafoons

EDIT: also doing it with the worst offensive coaching staff in the league
hardly

I guess widespread dissention and the resurrection of latent agendas will always be on tap whenever this team hits a rough patch but, c'mon, these losses were a likely outcome given the young players and tough schedule. Dak needs time to develop as does the defense, rebuilding through the draft is a slow process and they bit the bullet by letting go of most of the secondary in one offseason along with their established quarterback. It's going to be a rough year but when all these youngsters gel at the same time they should be awesome.

Dak is excellent against bad defenses and well below average against good defenses.

There's plenty of work for him to do.
What young qb does better vs good defenses? Say it wit ya chest too troll
