The play that doesn't get talked about on here as far as Daks QB play

[khiladi]

You are the exact point, delusional to think that Dak will win a SB it will NOT happen. The only chance he has of winning a super bowl is with a Ravens early 2000s type defense and that won't happen because there won't be enough $ to allocate to the defense because of his contract.

That won’t happen because a defense like that is generational and rarely comes along. It’s like a Tom Brady find.. that defense generated over 60 TOs that year..

5 second mark. The real final drive of the game, game on the line, first play a pick 6 that was dropped. Just terrible all around. Why wouldn't his first look be to the outside, you could see CeeDee upset, he locks into the easy pass way too often. Next play coulda changed the game, Gallup wide open deep and he misses him by 5 yards. It's pathetic to defend this guy, he just doesn't have it and it's his 7th season. Enough already.

The other point is, the 49ers RB made a big gaffe and ran out of bounds, otherwise this drive that allowed Dak to suck some more wouldn’t even have happened..

 

[khiladi]

What’s your excuse for Gallup not catching the ball?

This board has already been more than clear - Dak was why they lost the game

But answer the question

Because Dak threw an awful pass and catches like Tyree rarely ever happen? How is that for an excuse?

Prescott has also had the 6th Best Performance by a QB in NFL Playoff history.

That's not the goal. You think anyone really cares about that stat anyway? Nope. It might as well not even exist because it changes and means nothing.

Against a pathetic TB team

Exactly right. The Cowboys got a huge gift. And Dak squandered it away.

He did this multiple times this season, which resulted in his pick 6s. The guy just tosses it without looking.

If Moore wasn’t ahead of the defense in a game, Dak got exposed.

Remember when Dak said halfway in the season after his INTs were not yet as hung an issue, he was still going to throw it. Then MM was talking about how they want Dak to continue to be aggressive.

Their whole philosophy for Dak this year it seems was to throw it, to compensate for his slow reaction time. but this is what also led to his pick 6s.

some people are right and some people are wrong, what ever your view if you have to put a bunch of super stars around a qb then you have already lost because all it takes is one slip on the banana peel and it's all over. a lot of teams have found that out and to every GM's defense it is hard to find that one franchise qb. but 97 per cent of the time your not gonna find one in the rounds of 3 to 7 sometimes you get lucky most of the time you don't. So when dumb and dumber get to talking about franchising dak the big problem is he's not the franchise qb they think he is. he's a good qb not much above any of the mid level so when the talking heads on cowboys pod cast start telling every body that's he a top 5 just remember like a lot of them WHO'S PAYING THEM JERRY THE SUPER GM

 

[Gonzomandela01]

They tried to turn Dak into a 300 yds per game sharp shooter, gun slinger, Rodgers like QB, it didn't take, that is crystal clear.

Hope they now turn him back into a bus driver, secure passer with very few mistakes, to accomplish that a big boost in the running game and pass pro is needed.

I would say what it really is but like posting on here lol.

A pointless point in time …like Dak

[America's Cowboy]

40whiner QBs had a very good Oline, excellent RBs, very good WRs, top 2 overall best TE and one of the best O-Coordinators/play designer and head coach.

Dak had none of that.

Epic fail. Try again.

 

[Blackrain]

How many Cowboys QB have won a Road Playoff game in our History?

Dak Haters puke when they see the list....when it actually matters

Roger Staubach beat San Francisco on the road in 1970 Minnesota on the road and 71

In 1972 he beat San Francisco and Washington on the road

In 1975 he beat Minnesota and the Rams on the road and in 1978 he beat the Rams on the road.


But you have to remember that's when we were the real Dallas Cowboys not the Jones boys

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

Literally everyone agrees Dak played poor in the game but people still think they have to debate on whether he did or not....against whom? No one has argued Dak played good in that game lol...

What people argue is that you guys want to use one season to determine the guy can't play. A season where he injured his hand. He has one poor season now the "I told you so's" are out in droves. No, you're still wrong. Dak had a bad season and a bad game. A bad game after coming off a historic game.

What does it matter what he did against TB when his poor play against SF cost Dallas a chance to get to the NFC Championship game? Talk about moving the goalposts.

Bragging about 1 playoff road win in Dak's 7 seasons as a starting QB which has resulted in a 2-4 career playoff record......and back-to-back choke jobs against SF.

This board has already been more than clear - Dak was why they lost the game

But answer the question

I presume, in watching the video, the fact Gallup had to turn his body in the opposite direction of his route (given the pass was behind him) while in motion and attempting to combat the law of motion/physics may have played a role in why Gallup was unable to catch the pass.

 

[CowboyoWales]

Just in general, one thing I don't understand about Dak is that his accuracy really goes up and down. He has some games where he is just hitting people right in the hands and others where he is waaaaay off quite regularly.

If you look at the play in question, I think his footwork is terrible there and he seems to be sensitive to the rush. Weeks ago, Jimmy Johnson said that you have to give Dak "a clean pocket". I think he might be on to something as to what causes Dak to have these stinkers.

Before someone starts going off on the offensive line as the problem, go watch Joe Burrow play. That guy has great pocket presence and is constantly shifting around while keeping his eyes downfield and maintaining good throwing mechanics from the feet up. That's simply not Dak. Dak frequently drifts INTO the pass rush.

What to do about it?
1. Get a good run game. We have known for years that Dak does well with play action. Most QB's do but it seems particularly strong with Dak.
2. Early in his career (pre-Kellen), Dak got a lot of quick reads and throws. He made a killing simply throwing 5 yard outs to Beasley. I think some of that should come back.

Overall, I think that Kellen and Dak was just a bad mix when playing against good defenses. Kellen didn't adjust and it put Dak in positions that he wasn't comfortable in. Against average or bad defenses, everything was good.

It's because when something goes wrong he loses composure and try's to over compensate, especially if the problem happens later on and the clock's running down.....as there's not the time for the QB Whispering to put him back on line.

When he's on form he just exudes confidence and his game goes to another level....as you say a better Defense (especially one like the 49ers) know that you can stop the run game and focus on Dak's weaknesses.

 

[USArmyVet]

Look where the secondary is. They knew everything is a comeback. Every single person on defense is at or in front of the first down. That was almost a pick 6, that outside would've been a pick 6. 29 was sitting on that route. Lol, you're critiquing Dak well trying to but you really don't see 29 right there ready to take that ball to the house?

This is why Moore was bad.

Look outside and Lamb was open for an easy 6-yard catch and run out of bounds so as to stop the clock. The fact of the matter is Dak threw inside for some unknown reason and it was an incomplete pass that almost resulted in a pick 6. How is that Moore's fault rather than Dak's fault for staring down his first read?
