Dak is legit, Jones is burning garbage

I think you are the only one who knows what you say...

No I don't even think that is the case half the time.

 

[tapeANaspirin2it]

which of the steelers first 4 picks should they not have taken so they could draft hall of famer Dak Prescott?

 

[Coach]

Dak has produced in 2 preseason games. Jones has played poorly in 2 preseason games. Apples to apples.

Dak looked amazing. You could make a Landry jones highlight film from all of his preseason and regular season games and he still would not look as good.

 

[blitzburghv5]

People who actually understand the game.

It doesn't matter when it is, Dak has shown he can put the ball on the open man. His passer rating is 158 which is the highest one can have. When he lights it up in the regular season, you won't have anything to say then.

We've seen this **** before.........crowning players much too early only to see how average they turn out to be when it starts to matter. Go ahead and crown his ***. We will see.

A wanted Carl Nassib real bad in round two. He's doing very well in Browns camp. The fact that there was only one TE on the list shows how badly the Steelers misjudged Green's health.

I think you are the only one who knows what you say...

Well, you obviously don't. Instead of making vague assertions, I repeated what I ACTUALLY SAID. You come back with some half assed pot shot, proving nothing. Once again, shall I offer specifics to your general, unspecific goo?

I never even asserted Jones was playing with ALL STARTERs. Read what I actually wrote. I said.....

You haven't been paying attention. Dak played with tons of back ups this week and still had a perfect passer rating, while Jones threw FOUR picks with starters playing.

You are attempting a strawman argument. You are knocking down points I never asserted.

1.) Dak played with backups, not JUST starters.

2.) Jones played WITH starters, and he did. I never said ALL starters.

Now, before you go off "shaking your head" try to stick to refuting things I actually stated, instead of making up stuff and refuting things that were NEVER stated.

Are you contending Jones didn't play with any starters? Was that not the starting OL? Are you asserting that Dak ONLY played with starters? Hardly the case. I watched the game, did you?

You seem dizzy on this one. SMH

Now take your little ad hominem attacks and pretend you're really something with your straw man arguments. I believe most of this is going over your head. I'll try allow you to grasp this once again.

1. I never stated Jones ONLY played with ALL starters.

2. Dak played with plenty of non starters and still threw a perfect 158 rating.

None of your unspecific diarrhea refutes these facts.

Now go back to trying to defend Landry Jones. If noting else, it is funny. Let me guess: You tried to defend Kordell back in the day too.

OUCH. How right you are. Obviously, they thought they were set at TE. How wrong they were. They botched this one badly.

 

[madinsomniac]

While i typicall caution about hyping or dumping on a rookie after preseason games, i have to admit id be more hopeful if ben went down and we had an unproven rookie than if a proven mediocre guy like laundry is hoing in

haha You aint fooling anyone bro

The OT. He is a project. I wasn't mad at the pick, but we could have lived without him; he might even have still been there in the 5th to begin with.

I think I am fooling you by the looks of this.

Mediocre? He has a 41 passer rating. Mediocre implies average. 41 passer rating is terrible. He had FOUR picks in one half. But I agree: I'd have more hopes with an unproven rookie than a proven dumpster fire of Landry Jones.

He is who we thought he was.

 

[MTC]

Not sold on Dak in the pre season. Seen him play a bit with Miss St. He's a gamer, but won't carry the team on his shoulders. Think Tebow but with better throwing mechanics. If Dak does make an impact. He's gonna be a trend QB. Someone with two or three good seasons

So you actually think we would go into the season with a rookie as our #2 QB? Even if we drafted Pak and he had all of those pretty stats he still would be behind Jones at the start of the season.

100% erong on this one. he is a great athlete with an elite arm who improved greatly at state and became a very good pocket passer. He put MSU on the map in the elite SEC still playing with inferior talent to the Alabamas and LSTs, etc. To compare him to a bum like Tebow is a disservice to him. Watch the Cowboys game and you see a posed pocket passer hitting his receivers quickly and in stride allowing huge YAC, te kid is a stud.

 

[CoolieMan]

while I agree landry makes burning garbage look good...I am not going to call any player "legit" based on preseason work......

I completely agree with Clete, and Coolie, I realize I am making a prediction from two preseason games, but that is what I am predicting: Dak is gonna make a great pro. I watched both games, and he was steady, calm, accurate, poised, strong and seems to posses the needed intangibles. Everyone immediately turns to the "preseason means nothing" and I usually am among those who recite that, but with Dak, I see something there, and he tossed two perfect games of 158 rating, with both starters (and going against starters) and with back ups.

I have no idea what you are basing this on.

 

[Fiji Mariner]

There is some serious bobbin and slobbin of Daks noggin going on here, holy crap I could throw into Dez's catch radius when I have all day(like Dak does behind that OL) and Dez is getting covered by a future burger flipper.

I liked Dak and would've been all for drafting him in the 4th, but this is way too much for 2 games of 7 on 7 drills.

I agree seems like after 2 preseason games the guy is already a hall of famer. He may be a good or great QB, but it is WAY too early to say. Regardless I hope the steelers at least attempt to get some backup QB / TE help.

 

[Stryker]

Dak may be good, and he's starting off great.

My problem is you propping up a cowboy to diss a steeler. That cowboy that has yet to play when the games matter.

**** the cowboys.

 

[Fiji Mariner]

Yes ^^^^ F the Cowboys Cope!

Maybe they can take Landry off our hands for us, it is where the "burning garbage" belongs after all with a father that would name him so poorly.

 

[wig]

Speaking of Burning Garbage...

Tommy Maddox went from beloved savior to a guy cleaning trash off his lawn in just a year or so.

Let's not be too hasty eh?

 

[Clete]

Prescott comes in tonight on first drive against Seahawks after Romo gets injured and immediately lights them up with a 17 yard TD to Witten, yeah the guy is a bum.
