Dak shined earlier this year after being babied/limited during camp, but he will be getting a full camp this incoming year. I think he will take the next step to becoming a better QB. If you don't agree tell us why.
How do you think he will do? Whatever you think, say why please.
Oh man how can they forget how the year was going pre amare trade. Dak looked worse than Big Ben this yearWorse.
Ya'll about to see just how important Cooper was to Dak's success.
If I had to predict, I think Dak has peeked. I don't see him ever being a special QB. Not to say that he'll never win a SB, but he does need to be on a team with a great running game and a great defense for that to happen.
What’s the definition of insanity?
Yep 100%. Without Coop he will struggle just as he did prior to Coop.He's been around 6 years, lost his running ability, still won't throw to receivers against good defenses, and doesn't have the confidence of his team.
Coordinators don't have to gameplan for him. They don't fear him at all.
He's in decline, not on the rise.
The problem with this analogy is that Dak was not paid as a bus driver but he was paid as a top 3 QB. Now that he is paid the asinine amount, the team has to jetison off other quality players to stay under the cap which means the team is now worse. Dak will regress even more while earning more and more. Jerry listened to the woke fans and overpaid Dak and the team will suffer for it for the next 5 or 6 years at least.Yeah I don't feel Dak is going to regress to the point that he'll be benched for Rush. I mean I guess it's possible but highly unlikely. I also don't feel he will be Mahomes or Rodgers. Dak is an adequate to above adequate bus driver. If given the right bus he, and the rest of the team, can win a super bowl. If the bus breaks down Dak can't put the team on his shoulders and create wins. It's not completely hopeless with Dak, unless Dak can't read defenses then we're really screwed. But if the Jones can provide a quality team around him then I feel we could do something. The part that scares me is Dak played pretty poorly the last 9 games of the season. Some of those wins the defense pulled it out for us and saved the offense. So I'm rooting for Dak because if he fails then the Cowboys fail but I'm not believing in Dak right now cuz of the last 9 games of the season.
I will say that Dak is not the reason we lost in the playoffs. That was a complete team fail starting from Jerry Jones, through the coaches and in the players. Everyone was bad in that game besides maybe Anger. Dak played poorly too but he had no help from his coaches, line, receivers, RBs and defense. So IMO the playoff embarrassment was a total team effort. I don't put that one on Dak
Babied? Are you a trainer, doctor, coach?Dak shined earlier this year after being babied/limited during camp, but he will be getting a full camp this incoming year. I think he will take the next step to becoming a better QB. If you don't agree tell us why.
How do you think he will do? Whatever you think, say why please.
Dak is a proud leader and his ego is hurt. We have seen his work ethic so his efforts this off season I dont question. Now does he have high level skills. As you said we saw the first part of the 21 season he was zoned in then something happened. What/ I think particularly the Oline. Dak isnt quick enough to avoid and see the field he needs more time. Will the FO get him the protection he needs? I think their trying but also working the cap two opposing problems. The potential is there. Dak is not junk and the coming see-son will prove me one way or the other.Dak shined earlier this year after being babied/limited during camp, but he will be getting a full camp this incoming year.

He's been our QB for 6 seasons. Here are the weaknesses from his original draft profile. It could have been written last year. No, he's not improving.
Weaknesses
- Beat up this year thanks to poor protection
- When he wasn't being sacked, he was being hit hard
- Not as competitive a rusher in 2015
- Sacks and usage in run game might be taking a toll
- Increase in short pass attempts from 86 to 208 this year reason for higher completion numbers
- Accuracy on intermediate and deep throws dropped sharply
- Pocket poise has been compromised
- Hyper aware of pressure around him and lacks awareness to slide and find temporary shelter to make throw
- Concern over pressure too often trumps ability to get through progressions
- Must speed up the pace of his reads
- Footwork is a mess
- Slight stride onto stiff upper leg with little weight shift
- Restricted follow through and too often tries to muscle throws with upper body
- Throws to target rather than leading or throwing them open on short/intermediate throws
- Too respectful of underneath coverage and must be more willing to challenge the defense
- Needs to improve anticipation
It's free but I like NFL.com, Lance usually does a good job.That's scary and in someway's an impressive report.
