He IS in the 20's in YPA and Comp. % are low (both 25th). However, he's:

Yards - 12th
TD's - 3rd
Passer Rating - 18th (2 behind Risen's love child Wentz)
QBR - 3rd (1 spot AHEAD of Wentz according to ESPN's QBR Chart for the SEASON!!!!!)

At least get the facts right in your continued quest to crap on him. I'm almost finding this board comical now - it's like watching Fox News. :facepalm:

LOL.

You think I am crapping on him because I am pointing out the reality that he's not playing well?

In fact, I've done the opposite if you read my posts. I have pushed back on the notion that he's the only reason we are playing poorly and losing games.

And any stat that has him as the 3rd best QB in football right now should be viewed with some skepticism. Further other than QBR and TDs, every other stat would indicate he's anywhere from average to below average.

You list supposed facts as part of your argument to show he's NOT playing well. Then I list facts that show he's playing better than you and others continue to gripe about, but THOSE facts need to be looked at differently? Ok Trump.

Thats not how I saw it. I saw teams adjust and keep RG3 in the pocket and he simply couldn’t read defenses properly and didn’t have the accuracy. I see the exact paralells with Dak. Keep him in the pocket and you lose. Simple formula. Great rookie year with great run game, the film is out, teams adjust, career downhill. Paralells everywhere. I hope Dak proves me wrong but I doubt it.
You see any parallels with RGIii and any other second year qbs? Wentz and Daks stats are very similar.....

It's sad that's this place is looking like Faux News...the real fake news.

The check-down on 4th and 10, and the INT in the direction of nobody...the two worst plays from Dak yesterday.

So let me get this straight.

You have two stats that show he's playing really well and just about every other stat suggests he has played anywhere from average to below average (or at least not up to the high standard we expected) and you want to try to walk away with a win?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

This is very simple. He's not played all that well. He's not been awful by any stretch but he's not been really good either. He's not the sole reason for the team's struggles but he is certainly contributing to them.

That's just reality. If you can't handle it, then that's on you.

There is no logical way to blame a loss on one player. The club has given up nearly 80 points in the two loses. Prescott and friends put up 30 points and that could/should have been enough to win the game.

We've got a lot of different things going on. There was a lot of edge pressure on Dak this week. Dak was inaccurate to Dez for whatever reasons. Dez and Dak aren't on the same page with adjustments. Terrence dropped a conversion to stall a drive unforced. The run blocking still isn't right. LBs can't cover. Heath is taking bad angles and not wrapping up. Jaylon looks pedestrian. There's a lot going on that's not good right now.

There are a lot of problems. Trying to blame one person or one group is silly. But trying to exonerate a player, whether that be Dak or Dez or Elliott or Smith or the OL, is silly. There are massive failings and mistakes happening to just about everyone.

Frankly, the only people I don't think have been an issue thus far have been Lawrence and maybe Lewis.

Gotta include the kickers in that group, but your point is well-taken. We've got a lot of issues cropping up.

Was his arm hit? I was in attendance at the game and didn't see his arm hit from where I was. A thousand apologies, tough guy! lol

not being tough...just defending this guy who doesn't deserve the blame he is getting.

His arm was absolutely hit and it took a lot off and ge didnt follow all the way through.

You don't believe Prescott has a hand, even just a little bit, in the loss?

Williams and Dez dropping passes again...doesn't help....I'm not sure what kind of game plan or adjustments the coaches are making....

Because he didnt score over 35 points? Not really.

He missed some throws...every qb does. I question the scheme more than anything right now.

Scheme is a problem but you can't also miss some of the throws he's missing.

60% completion percentage through 4 games also would seem to indicate that he's not exactly accurate with the ball.
