Unless I'm reading it wrong according to pro football reference we were 31st in pass attempts. Seattle was last.I dont think we were 32nd in pass attempts in 2014.

Ravi says we were 16th which sounds more correct.Unless I'm reading it wrong according to pro football reference we were 31st in pass attempts. Seattle was last.
Nope you are looking at it correctly. And oh by the way, Dallas is 29th in passing attempts now this year.Unless I'm reading it wrong according to pro football reference we were 31st in pass attempts. Seattle was last.
It's not. In 2014 the only team we had more passing attempts then was the Seattle Seahawks. Our 476 attempts was more then their 454. The league leading Colts that season had 661.Ravi says we were 16th which sounds more correct.
I stand corrected, we were second to last in attempts and 16th in yardage.It's not. In 2014 the only team we had more passing attempts then was the Seattle Seahawks. Our 476 attempts was more then their 454. The league leading Colts that season had 661.
We average 245 ypg passing this season. In 2014 we averaged 237 passing yards per game. So try again.I stand corrected, we were second to last in attempts and 16th in yardage.
So attempts are closely paralleling 2014, and I believe our productivity gap in yardage is because of our inefficiency deep.
He was well on his way to exactly that type of game against the bears before the Williams fumble.Ravid has said some crazy things in this Romo-Prescott debate but I don't think his point is meritless here. At some point to be an elite offense he's gonna have to be able to let the ball rip; you can't be an elite offensive team for an entire season without the threat of a 350 yard 3 TD passing performance to scare teams off the line.
So far Dak has been very efficient and it has been just enough in some games and more than enough in other games; and that includes wins against some very good teams.
But I do think I am waiting for him to show me he has that 300 yard wing it all over the field ability on at least a semi consistent basis. We haven't really needed it yet but is there a long term franchise QB, aside from maybe Russell Wilson, who doesn't have the ability to drop 300 in any given week?
Not saying Dak can't but I haven't seen it yet and I do have some reservations about it.
Well, all's I'm saying is that Prescott is good, man. I mean, have you seen how well Kyle Schwarber hits with runners in scoring position with two outs and two strikes on even days of the month? Huh? Huh? Well, have you?Why would Wentz's stats, or two decade old Aikman stats, mean anything in a Prescott vs Romo debate?
Romo averaged 247.We average 245 ypg passing this season. In 2014 we averaged 237 passing yards per game. So try again.
2014 Romo 81.8 QBR 113.2 PRRomo averaged 247.
2014 Romo completed 69.9% of his passes for 8.5 YPA and 7.8% TD percentage. Dak is 65.5 and 4.1.
including a higher QBR and much higher passer rating.
He is also totally ignoring rushing TDs which is a favorite move to try and pump Romo over Dak. But does anyone think there is a difference between Dak running it in and Romo throwing it in?2014 Romo 81.8 QBR 113.2 PR
2016 Prescott 81.6 QBR 99.6 PR
Not so much on the QBR but correct on the passer rating.
But it's not really a fair comparison. You are comparing a 10 year vet to a rookie. Consider that and I would say the rookie is doing VERY well.
You seem to be saying that Dak doesn't get the ball down the field but as a rookie he is middle of the pack in Air Yards per Attempt:

I was wrong about those specific stats but I firmly believe Romo is a better passer which is the whole point.He is also totally ignoring rushing TDs which is a favorite move to try and pump Romo over Dak. But does anyone think there is a difference between Dak running it in and Romo throwing it in?
Anyway, this is just another example of moving the target. Ravi was dead wrong about pass attempts and passing yards so now he is trying to change the topic.
