I think all that has led him to be way more risky with the ball. He is still a top 10 QB but doesn't have very much help on offense.
I think Pollard going down hurt Dallas more than anything. After that Dak really started pressing, and SF knew they didn't have to defend the run because Dallas doesn't trust Elliott to make more than 2 yards on a play.
Dak may not be Elite, but he's been carrying Dallas for the better part of 8 seasons now.
