DaBoys Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 8 hours ago, TheStarStillShines said: We saw what kind of team the Boys could have when it had a QB making less than $3M - that was Dak on his rookie deal. The team didn't achieve much because the "architects" continually failed to put together a complete team. The problem isn't Dak and his contract. The problem resides in the Joneses and the coaches they've hired, and I know you agree with this. That’s not exactly true either. We had a highly paid QB sitting on the sidelines Daks first year, and in the announcers booth the next year. We never TRULY got the cheap rookie QB treatment because we still had Romos albatross contract on the books. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaBoys Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 I love the, “we’ve seen this team without Dak and it ain’t pretty,” statements. like we weren’t lucky as hell to be 1-4 before Dak got hurt. What about our team was pretty before Dak got hurt? I guess we had the ability to move the ball after halftime. That was nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love the "we are lucky to be 1-4" statements. As if we werent a a bounce here or a call there from being 4-1 with an historically bad defense. 17 minutes ago, DaBoys said: What about our team was pretty before Dak got hurt?

Once again, like always, you are wrong: Quote 1st Half 69 94 25 73.40 847 4 43 2 106.1 5 -34 9.0 8.90 7 34 4.9 0 2 1 1 11 11.0 1 1 100.0% 11.0 2nd Half 82 128 46 64.06 1009 5 50 2 94.8 5 -32 7.9 7.96 11 59 5.4 3 6 0 0 0 0 0 Dak was actually more efficient in the first half. Less attempts, but a lot more production per an attempt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In 2017-18, they had quite a few players on cheap, rookie deals contributing. Regardless, we all recognize that the Joneses aren't the best architects.

The only way this could possibly be settled would be to see how the $28M Difference dalton and Dak gets allocated to the rest of the team. What is settled however is that Dallas is fielding probably its worst defense in team history due in large part to paying Dak $31M. We lost multiple defensive contributors because we could not afford to keep them. It is 100% settled that paying Dak $31M this year objectively HURT this football team. We went from a team that gave up 20 ppg to a team that gives up 34 ppg. Yes. Daks franchise tag is the reason our defense is so awful. Slam. I think this subject is officially dead for me. I don't have a horse in this fight anymore and have zero desire to try to convince you otherwise. Best of luck rooting for Dak to sign elsewhere. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matts4313 Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 QB Ranking thread is up. Dak got dinged pretty hard by the INTs. 2 failed hailmary attempts I dont hold against him, but the other 2 were his fault. Still, in the tier 2 category according to an Eagles fan. 7 hours ago, RandyMossIsBoss said: Did this last season, a snapshot look at various passing statistics, ratings, grades, etc. weighed equally to get a single number behind each QB's season. This ranking is purely based on the metrics mentioned below, it is in no way my, or anybody's, actual QB ranking. I will update the thread every week or so. At the moment I incorporate the following, but am open to adding more: Passer Rating= completion %, Y/A, TD% and INT% ANY/A= similar to passer rating but weighed differently + sacks and yards lost on sacks are added to the equation DVOA= the outcome of every play is compared to the league average in that same situation, every box score factor possible is utilized. For QBs, DVOA does not include running, unlike QBR. QBR= similar to DVOA, but with a touch of subjectivity that goes beyond box score (drops, bad plays that weren't fault of QB, etc.), and a clutch factor (more weight towards plays in situations deemed clutch) PFF= every play is looked at and given a grade, the final grade is the cumulative score of every play normalized to a 0-100 scale Passer rating and ANY/A are basic box score based metrics. DVOA and QBR are EPA based metrics. PFF is the wild card, being purely iTest, but they are quoted enough that I think it warranted including their grades. Thoughts on including completion % over expectation? Really only measures 1 aspect of QB play (accuracy), while these other 5 try to paint a whole picture, but I am seeing analytics twitter loving this metric as of late. It looks at their expected completion % (completion provability is based on several factors including: air yards, WR separation, WR location, nearest pass rusher, etc.) compared to their actual completion %.

I mean **** in one hand and wish in the other and tell me which gets full first. If you do not believe in the FO as much as I believe you do you know your argument holds no water because the team will not spend $28M to improve on defense wisely. We could have signed Jones (the only real loss) and the front office made it very clear "BuT nO InTErcEptIOns Tho". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why is it so hard to be factual? Dak has played fine against decent teams. His numbers against teams with winning records is still in the top 10 range. Dak is not solely responsible for wins and losses. I am not sure why people keep parading a team stat and pretending its all on Dak. Daks best quarters are the 2nd and 3rd. Which has been pointed out at least 25 times. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
