your quote and other comments in this very thread.Show me.
"Schultz was wide open for a TD. The flat defender stayed shallow enough for the levels concept to work. Dak didn't anticipate and moved off that read to his right too soon."
if you watched the film...I mean really watched and not made assumptions....Schultz makes the cut at the 7, so your whole argument is that the ball should have been thrown before then....and you can clearly see on the 4.24 mark of the video as he makes his cut the defender moves toward him to close the gap....so leading him as you said, with defender moving in the same direction and your assumption is defender would miss the tackle perhaps. I am nto sure what you mean that he was WIDE open for TD!!!??
and as I have tried to teach you all along, at that very moment look on the top side of the video and you can clearlyly see (take your biased glassed off) that there are two reciever one open and with a bigger distance between him and the defenders and if Dak would have made that throw, to the outside, when reciever is turned and looking at him on the 10 yard line and the saftey on the 2 yard line, its a much easier throw and much easier path to the endzone. Dak missed that throw.....
the part you missed and you made assumptions and you are trying to hammer a square peg in a round hole....Dak moved from the left to the right way before schultz was open and made his cut and went to his right....right before Dak moved to the right, Schultz was covered and didn't seem to be coming open..... so the Play was to go to the higher probability play on the right, with 2 recievers and a CB isolated on both..
learn football son. put your bias away. put your agenda away. then you will see and understand better..
yes, I have said it multiple times. this play was missed because Dak missed a throwing window to a wide wide open recievers with noone in the passing lane on the top of the play on the right. it was the right move Dak made moving away from the left side instead of just staying with it to let the play maybe develop, maybe not...your problem is you are looking at after the fact. I am looking at it as its transpiring and how a QB must think through his progressions.
