Assuming Prescott starts Saturday and we score 50+...

Let a team have to game plan for Dak for the whole game

Are teams worried about Dak running (outside of inside 2 yards of course)? Do the 1-on-1 coverages come from the threat of Dak's legs or lack of throwing ability? This isn't saying that Dak won't improve as the season continues. But what happens if Dak gets shutout @AU - an SEC opponent? The correct answer is "TR would have made us lose worse."

Here's why teams are afraid of Dak:

T. Russell	10/16 (63%)	133	8.3	0	1	23.3

Not on 3rd and short or goal line situations. Or garbage minutes. Until Russell can read his progressions faster or throw the ball away when their isn't anyone to throw too, he's not going to help us win many ball games. Hell he couldn't see that Perkins was covered by 3 people and that one of our receivers had slipped down field on his interception. That's the easiest read he will ever have and he didn't make the right decision. If he would have, it was an easy touchdown, instead he throws an interception trying to force something.

i disagree. I think with him in the game it completely changes it. Of course he'll keep it more than not but I don't think it causes it to be an automatic QB keep
