Fitz has to get a lot better as a passer to get there. There is no doubt he’s a tough ****er and great runner. But as far as a thrower and decision maker he’s not close.

True, but we could run the ball outside the QB position in 2014. By far the primary reason we had the success we did in 2015 was Dak maturing into a near elite passer by that time and putting on some incredible performances given what he had to work with. Substitute present Fitz into that position and keep everything else the same, and that season would most likely have looked very different. Probably not far removed from 2016.

Ahhhhh. How far have we come? From arguing over a West Coast shit offense to now arguing whether or not our current QB is better than our last ?NFL rookie of the year? QB!!!
I?m just happy that we have actual sports to speak of on a sports board. Not ascots and seersucker.

There is a metric... ESPN?s QBR
Dak in 2014 = 74.5 (19th nationally)
Dak in 2015 = 78.8 (14th nationally)
Fitz in 2016 = 77.4 (19th nationally)
Fitz in 2017 = 82.8 (5th nationally)

Fitz is a soph and junior vs dak junior and senior. ESPN QBR supports OP

All well and good, but if you are picking a team to go play this week, who you picking to play QB?
I'll take Dak, in his college days

Your looking at Dak playing for the Cowboys

Dude, literally every single person in this thread has disagreed with you. You have your opinion, and that's fine. But you're not going to convince people that Fitz is better than Dak was. Fitz is a superior runner without a doubt. Dak was far and away more polished of a passer, and he did pretty well running himself.

If Fitz gets any better throwing the football and I think he will, he?ll be in NY at the heisman trophy ceremony. He?s already on pace to smash Tebow?s rushing record by a qb

Do you think I made this to get agreement? I'm not looking for popularity. Most of the same people said we'd win 6 games max this year. I said 8 was our floor. I even challenged a "Random poster" with a bet. My opinion is Fitz is better. That's no knock on Dak he just can't do things Fitz can.

God Almighty, 99% of the folks on this board need a reading comprehension class. Did I not write "In his college days"? Dak in the Liberty Bowl, at LSU, Vs Aub, vs A&M etc THROWING THE BALL, Fitz has never come close to having games like that, making those throws
Cowboys be damned, I'd want Dak

Dak never ran for 1,000 yards in a season either. Barring injury, this will be fitz?s 2nd year in a row to do it. I still like dak better at the moment, but ESPN?s non-partial QBR shows OP isn?t presenting a ridiculous argument

Dak didn't have to. Fitz is faster, but Dak made a ton of plays with his legs. Again, we could call different with Dak.

What could you call with Dak that you couldn't with Fitz? I love Dak but EVERY game we've won with Dak would also been won with Fitz. Also, every game we lost with Fitz we also lose with Dak.

This thread obviously is all moot opinions. I just love the attitude, fearlessness, and competitiveness Fitz possesses. He's a baaaaddddd man!

Dak, had way better people to throw to. Fitz yesterday had some tight ends and ole # 20 who can't catch a cold. And Dak couldn't beat A&M and Fitz has beat them twice

Dak did beat A&M his Jr year. We waxed them. Score was closer than actual game.
