What did everyone else think about Dak's release time?

Did not realize it was that quick. What was Romo's again, as I remember him having the quickest above Marino? Pretty impressive when they timed it last night.

The lad doesn't have the strongest arm out there... but he's got a very quick release.


Winicki, I would like for you to explain how it was that Dak threw a 60-65 yard pass in the air to Butler in the pre-season game and he doesn't have the strongest arm. Which is a clever way of phrasing that.

Or that he threw an out route in a pre-season game and the announcers were ohhhing and ahhhing about his arm strength.

I'll be around.

It should be no surprise.

I actually don't see many severe limitations. He needs some work on his technique and delivery, but he has a fast release, a strong arm, and is a strong guy.

I liked Dak vs Lynch straight up. Comparing what we gave up for Dak vs what it would have have taken for Lynch it's a no brainer.

Romo's was around .26, Marino was .3, while Dak is .37. It doesn't sound like much, but over a tenth of a second is a big deal when you are talking about the ball getting from the QB to the receiver.

It doesn't sound like much, but tell that to Justin Gatlin when Bolt is blowing by!

I don't think this is accurate. Collinsworth said the fasted they had ever seen was around .30.

There is an old thread with the info.

This is link is from USA Today

This is the information from that link:

The NFL Network compared the release times of Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo and Dan Marino, when the CBS analyst was playing, during Saturday night's game. Romo's release is faster — 0.26 seconds vs. Marino's 0.3.

There was a video on youtube but it was taken down due to copyright infringement.
