Was it Dak, or was it really Kellen Moore?

[khiladi]

Both.. Kellen called plays that got guys wide open and Dak dropped the passes into them.

It was a near perfect game on both ends.

And a horrendous Giants young secondary, confused by all the pre-snap motion that Dallas brought, which was unusual and an awful Giants DC..

Dak was the first Dallas quarterback to ever have a perfect QB rating. How can you say he didn’t play great with a straight face? It literally was a record breaking performance.

Actually, Meredith and Morton did it in the late 60s. But, Dak deserves the accolades for taking part in a complete offensive effort.

Credit goes to Moore for playing to Dak's strengths and for his excellent playcalling. But, Dak deserves a ton of credit and deserves to receive praise for the outstanding game that he had. Dak executed passes and made plays when they needed to be made. And just like any good QB would do, he made the Giants secondary play for not covering WRs properly. He had a great game!

It was Prescott, Moore, assistant coaches, and ten other guys, that is, if you do not count substitutes.

True, but kudos to Rayne for taking what their scrubs were giving him. If Dakota can do this all season and continue to play aggressive and not passive everybody will be on board. Show me at the end of the season where he ranks and show me sucess in the playoffs

 

[HungryLion]

Yes, coaching matters and Kellen did a great job.

But, it’s downright shameful you can’t just say Dak played great.

 

[Nav22]

I love when people expose themselves as knowing NOTHING about NFL football.

Dak was only “good” because not EVERY SINGLE pass was dead-on accurate???

He literally had a perfect passer rating.

True, I said during the game this was the best game he ever played, but the conditions were right in ever respect. And to quote Super_Kazuya:

Matthew Stafford passed for 385 yards and 3 TDs today. Lamar Jackson, 324 yards and 5 TDs. Case Keenum 380 yards and 3 TDs. Andy Dalton passed for 418 yards and 2 TDs. No interceptions for all four of those guys. Gardner Minshew, a 6th round draft pick thrust into the game after Foles got hurt, completed 22 of 25 passes for 2 TDs. One game has not changed my perception of them as QBs; they are all bottom third QBs still, just like Dak. At the end of the season, after playing the entire schedule, we will see where Dak is at and make the evaluation. One game is nothing.

Dak has clearly improved his footwork, decision making and accuracy. He even looked off safeties often going through his reads. Yea, it was against a weak pass defense but it is exactly what he needed to boost that confidence.

True, I said during the game this was the best game he ever played, but the conditions were right in ever respect. And to quote Super_Kazuya:

The one thing I've always found lacking in his game is the quick recognize and release into tight areas. The WR's were running wild in the secondary so a defenses that can actually cover people may present a problem. We shall see if he's the 40 million Dollar Man.

 

[Jake]

I saw a few bad throws, that were behind the WR's but they did a good job adjusting, tighter coverage and we could of seen picks.

Dak had a good, not great game, I'll give him that.

400 yards, 4 TDs, 0 turnovers, and a perfect 158.3 rating is a "good" game? By that definition there will never be a great game.

No QB throws a perfect pass on every completion. The difference is you're analyzing every throw Dak makes.

 

[JIMMYBUFFETT]

I'm sure both Moore and Kitna have helped Dak a lot this season. That and the fact that he's still a maturing QB in only his 4th season at 26. Add all that up if you want, but Dak was the one who got it done yesterday. Game management with getting up on the ball quickly and sprinkling in some no huddle. Pre-snap reads, you could really see he had the Giants offense figured out before the ball was ever snapped. Decisiveness, he was stepping up in the pocket and firing the ball with vastly improved mechanics. Using his legs to pick up first downs. I could go on, but you all saw the game. Dak owned the Giants yesterday and if there was ever any doubt about who the leader in the locker room was, that has been erased.

 

[Doomsday101]

One thing I saw yesterday was Dak was not hesitating on his throws, he was making the read and getting the ball out very quickly. Hesitation will kill a QB and Dak showed good improvement in that area yesterday

 

[Risen Star]

It was all Kellen Moore.

 

[Polkton31]

I am now thoroughly convinced that if some of the posters on this board found a hundred dollar bill on the sidewalk, they would complain that it wasn't 5 twenties.

 

[Dorsett33]

Ha! I wonder what the haters would say! Good but not great, huh? Lmbo

 

[TwistedL0g1k]

Does anyone really think that offensive performance happens with Linehan?

Dak's performance was exceptional, but more creative and aggressive play-calling opened the door.

 

[CouchCoach]

Aikman gave one guy the credit for his NFL career. Alex Smith had 5 OC's in his first 5 seasons and they were calling him a bust.

This was just one game without a strong pass rush or a good secondary, let's see how they do when the pressure comes.

KM called a great game, Dak played lights out, the receivers killed their routes, the Oline gave one of the best performances I've witnessed in years, and though Zeke didn't amass amazing yardage, his runs were good and he blocked like a freaking madman. The thing I really liked, we didn't have to depend on Zeke pounding the line all the time because the whole offense is coming together.
