Interesting Dak Stats
I believe Dak is a middle of the pack STARTING QB(i.e. 12-18) with top 10 potential. Is that fair?
Here's how his career sits compared to other players. Out of ACTIVE players (minimum 1000 pass attempts) Dak has the:
- 3rd highest career completion percentage at 65.65%
- 3rd lowest interception percentage at 1.68%
- 7th highest passer rating at 95.5
- 8th highest Adjusted Yards per attempt at 7.61
- Most rushing touchdowns in the league since 2016 for a QB and 12th for all players
- 4th highest average yards per rush (for QBs)
- 3rd most sacked QB (some of this is certainly his fault)
- 2nd most wins (only behind Tom Brady)
Furthermore Dak is one of seven quarterbacks who have not missed a start since entering the league.
I know people love shiny fantasy football passing yardage and passing TDs totals but it is beyond time to stop acting like some dolt and recognize that he successfully runs the ball (which is insanely huge when the game plan to run the ball 50% of the time and you force defenses to account for the QB not just Zeke) and VERY efficiently passes it.
I might actually be underselling the kid.
