Prickly Pete Posted August 20, 2016 Posted August 20, 2016 (edited) Haha, the JP Losman effect. Again, let's see some of these guys in meaningful games. I loved to see the archives of past Qbs the board has fallen in love with in preseason that never panned out. Cook was way more accomplished than JP Losman in college. I'm not basing my opinion on the pre-season, but he has looked pretty good, just as I expected him to. We shall see if he can be a leader, but to just declare "guy is not a leader" so assuredly from where we sit, is foolishness. He has had plenty of success, "leader" or not, and I expect that to continue. But keep the opinions to the contrary coming, it will give me at least a fraction of happiness when he turns out to be a star, to counter the frustration of the Bills not going after him in the draft.

LabattBlue Posted August 20, 2016 Posted August 20, 2016 (edited) I was never impressed with Prescott in college. Come talk to me the first time he sees action with live bullets flying. Edited August 20, 2016 by LabattBlue
Ralonzo Posted August 20, 2016 Posted August 20, 2016 (edited) Looks unbelievable so far. "Just preseason" or is he the real deal? Dak Prescott's preseason: 6 TDs, 5 incompletions. passer rating in 1st two preseason games: 154.5 & 158.3 (perfect) w/ 4 TD passes & 2 TD runs. Stats don't show a pretty terrible pick that was wiped out by a roughing-the-passer. Edited August 20, 2016 by Ralonzo

BaaadThingsMan Posted August 27, 2016 Posted August 27, 2016 We are gonna find out what kinda qb dak is pretty quickly
aristocrat Posted August 27, 2016 Posted August 27, 2016 the boys have elliot and morris in the backfield. they gonna run the ball alot. that defense better be ready to play
26CornerBlitz Posted August 27, 2016 Posted August 27, 2016 the boys have elliot and morris in the backfield. they gonna run the ball alot. that defense better be ready to play They have the great OL to be successful doing just that.
aristocrat Posted August 27, 2016 Posted August 27, 2016 dak has looked good in the pre season. that's better than what nassib has done as a backup. better to look good in pre season than bad
Johnny Hammersticks Posted August 28, 2016 Posted August 28, 2016 With that offensive line and running game, I think Dak has a pretty good chance of being successful. Some folks forget that he has been playing against starting defenses in the preseason.
Beef Jerky Posted August 28, 2016 Posted August 28, 2016 (edited) Remember teams don't gameplan against you. During the season they gather more and more tape and make specific Defensive strategies against you. Edited August 28, 2016 by Beef Jerky
Kelly the Dog Posted August 28, 2016 Posted August 28, 2016 The Cowboys have a great line and likely a good running game. But teams are going to force Dak to beat them with his arm. I expect a fair to good amount of highlight reel plays and a giant crash to earth. There is just an enormous difference to the speed of the game and game planning and disguising coverages. Plus their defense will likely suck. I like Dak. He's going to get killed.

But unless the Cowboys turn into a ground and pound, in other words go forward with a pretty limited playbook, Dak's gonna turn it over. A lot. JMO.
Johnny Hammersticks Posted August 28, 2016 Posted August 28, 2016 Remember teams don't gameplan against you. During the season they gather more and more tape and make specific Defensive strategies against you. True. However, game planning against a guy like Prescott can be difficult given that he has shown to be an adept passer, as well as, a pretty solid runner. Similar to game planning for Russell Wilson (not saying DP is RW obviously but similar). Maybe I'm a little delusional because I just picked up Dak for my FF team...lol. The Cowboys have a great line and likely a good running game. But teams are going to force Dak to beat them with his arm. I expect a fair to good amount of highlight reel plays and a giant crash to earth. There is just an enormous difference to the speed of the game and game planning and disguising coverages. Plus their defense will likely suck. I like Dak. He's going to get killed. We shall see.
atlbillsfan1975 Posted August 28, 2016 Posted August 28, 2016 Are you thinking of Kenny Hill? Prescott was Miss St.Yep! Thank you for setting me straight. Looks like Cowboy fans are hoping even more so Prescott is the answer at QB!
Wagon Circler Posted August 28, 2016 Posted August 28, 2016 I liked him better than any other QB in the draft... was hoping the Bills would take him. Ditto. Really wanted him. Tyrod 2.o. Conversely, really hated Cardale and hackenberg.
John from Riverside Posted August 28, 2016 Posted August 28, 2016 Ditto. Really wanted him. Tyrod 2.o. Conversely, really hated Cardale and hackenberg. Dont know why you would hate Cardale.....the kid has hardly played any football to form an opinion
Saxum Posted August 29, 2016 Posted August 29, 2016 Jerry Jones is citing the Bledsoe-Br*dy change as possible result of this .... http://www.foxsports.com/nfl/story/cowboys-exec-opens-door-for-dak-prescott-to-pull-a-tom-brady-on-tony-romo-082916 “I can’t imagine a scenario where Tony’s not our quarterback when he’s ready,” Jones said via the MMQB. “But things happen. You know that. You know what happened to Bledsoe and Brady. I’m sure Tony’s aware of that. But the reality is, Tony’s going to come back for us and play great, we believe.” Despite his words on reality I think he is hoping more for a Br*dy-like situation to occur.
