Dak was immediately embraced by the Romorooters because he wasn't the target of their hate and they refused to answer the question "why was he a 4th rounder, 7th QB taken and 3rd choice by the team that took him"? Every QB scout in the NFL looked at him and none had him above the 4th round.
The question I have about Dak is are they going to take the risk and let him be what he is? A dual threat QB who's legs got him on the Heisman list after his junior year. He is Cam Newton Jr. and not the prototypical pocket passer.
I have yet to see any QB coach or HC fix a consistent accuracy issue. Dak, instinctively, throws better on the run and is comfortable on the move. He doesn't have good pocket presence and makes mechanical errors when hemmed in the pocket and the pressure is coming.
It is a risk to turn your QB loose and we've seen Newton injured but Dak runs smarter and has the slide down really well plus he's built like a RB. He might be Bobby Douglass with a better arm, if some of you remember the old Bears QB.
The simple truth to me is Dak is not one of the elite QB's and isn't going to be but that doesn't mean he cannot lead his team to some playoff success, if they build the team around him like they did for Staubach and Aikman. He is good enough to get the job done but he will not carry a team.
I laugh at the elite QB shit because other than Brady, how many have won multiple rings? Brees? Rodgers? Ryan? Yet QB's like Flacco and E. Manning win two because they had teams built around them and I could say the same of P. "Anvil Head" Manning, he was actually at his worst in the playoffs. Best ever, my ass.
So, what do I think? So nice of you to ask. I think he needs to keep his mouth shut about that "being the best Cowboys QB in history" and just work at his craft.
