Folks seem to forget.

What really won that game, from Dak's perspective, were his legs.

A few first downs and a TD.

That's one tangible he definitely has over Wentz. Period.

For me, that's priceless in today's NFL.

EDIT: With that being said I DO like he's a pass first QB. Legs are a bonus.

Actually, Wentz can run really well.

Dak showed he's got a lot of work to do on Sunday. Nothing wrong with that, it's where he's at in his development.

I don't understand why Wentz gets a pass, either. He was relatively ineffective. It was like watching Weeden run our offense last year. Line of sight passing at or near the line of scrimmage. Good percentages but ineffective. If he won't attempt the hard stuff--or if his coaches won't let him--how can anybody conclude he's ahead? All we know is that he looks great at coloring within the lines. If that carries over to everything else eventually, then, great. The Eagles will have found themselves a QB. I think somehow I'll be able to live with that.

I would think he does have work to do as does Wentz they are rookies neither guy is as good as they will become given the time and continual development. Both guys have been thrown into the fire at the get go of their careers and are being forced to learn on the job. Frankly both are holding up better than what any reasonable person could expect.

LMAO it was exactly like Weeden!. Those were my thoughts exactly. Wentz throws the ball 80 MPH on 5 yard passes. Its insane how many people aren't talking about that.

:laugh: There are still people who think Wentz is better and/or more polished than Dak? Seriously? This is the first I've seen of this since the first couple of weeks of the season.

Did Wentz not throw a pass that would have choked the game away but Scandrick dropped it

Prescott threw two more picks, but Terrance Williams saved him in the end zone, and McKelvin dropped one right in his mits.

Many things wrong here first Wentz doesn't go through progressions better then Dak. Wentz barely goes through progressions at all, meanwhile Dak looks off safeties and goes through his reads.


Second this whole if Wentz had Daks supporting cast is stupid and a cop out. Does Troy Aikman or Montana get a pass because of the team around them? No. Did Romo get a pass when he didn't have anybody? No. Then why the excuses for Wentz.

Third, Wentz accuracy isn't that great and Dak has been more accurate of all games played. Even with wentz dinking and dunking Dak has been more accurate. Wentz throws the ball wobbly, not a tight spiral, and a lot of the times recievers and backs are reaching high, or low, or behind them because the ball has been terrible.

It's a myth, Dak is better and has played better. Dak won head to head and Dak is 2-1 in the division and Wentz is 0-3.......Wentz can't play bears and Browns every week

Towards the sideline.

Point was there's a time for it and Wentz had those opportunities and didn't/doesn't.

He may run well but I'll never believe he has the same impact, running with the football, as Dak.

He didn't throw the picks though. You have to secure the pick before it can count......not only that Wentz has thrown more picks then Dak and Wentz also has a multiple pick game. Stop it with the love fest of Wentz

I think the best way to compare is this.

What would Wentz do here, versus what Dak would do there.

No Dak threw 1 and Wentz threw 0......or did you not watch

I don't blame QBs when their receivers drop passes, but I don't give them credit just because a defender dropped an interception.

Dak threw several gawd-awful passes on Sunday night. Horrible. But he rallied late because of the competitor he is.

What? That's crazy and a silly argument for you Wentz lovers. Other QBs get called on how they play. If Wentz was so great then he would elevate his team to play better. People wouldn't say switch Romo and Brady. Or Luck and RG3.
