I agree to an extent, although given the down and distance I think one would be correct in arguing that Dak should've started off his read to Beasley's side and then worked his way to the other side with the longer-developing routes. But still, it's impossible to know exactly how the coaches want the players to execute a given play call given certain coverage looks.
There should be no debate whatsoever if you understand football that this play was designed to go to Beasley and it was supposed to get to him right away.

It's 3rd and 1 there. It should be an easy pitch and catch where he gets the 1 yard comfortably, but for whatever reason, Dak's throw is really late.

Not sure if he didn't like what he saw and turned his eyes elsewhere for a second before returning to Beasley, but the #1 target there and the design of the play should not be in question.

It's obvious.

It was 3rd and 5 and the safety broke on Beaseley right before Dak completed his 3-step drop, possibly causing the pause cuz he’s so damn conservative.

I also think with Beaseley’s stutter step that this was supposed to be a quick hitch that turned into a drag. If so, that safety was in decent position to stop Beaseley short of the 1st down anyway.

Film session and practice is what will help him with this.

It would be nice if he had a better QB coach as well, but I digress.
Yea, I would love to hear he spends the offseason with a qb guru like Dedeaux who has worked with Brady, Brees and most recently Wentz and Goff this last offseason

Some, yesterday, were saying this pass was intended for a double-teamed Witten. Dak was actually going to TWill outside.

He had a great spin move in college, I suspect he will get there by Year 3, maybe second half of Year 2.
