I will begin by prefacing that I have been very, VERY pleased with Dak as our QB. He has taken us to new heights and has, at times, put this team on his back. I think, due to the nature of Mullen's offense, that this will naturally happen with whoever is under center.

That being said, while Dak Prescott is the best QB we have had so FAR, I don't think he will be the best we ever have from a performance stand point. Remember, this guy started out as a 3-star recruit that was being considered as a TE for every major college program that was looking at him. Mullen coached him up into an really good QB but, honestly, Fitz, Staley, and maybe even Tiano has a higher ceiling.

In big games it seemed that Dak played tight and didn't handle the big game spot light very well. In those instances, natural talent separates the good QB from the great QB. I think there are plenty of examples of this happening with Dak. He was a good QB that was put in a scheme that fit him well so he was able to excel in it and rack up big yards. But when the big game came along and the talent in competition was raised you began to see some of that talent gap. I guess, what I'm saying, is that failure on the football field is not all on Mullen. I still think he is a great coach but you work with what you have. There is still PLENTY that falls on his shoulders and there is a lot that needs to be fixed. I just keep looking at some of the great talent that we have red shirted that will start taking the field next year in addition to some QB's that may end up being better than what we have now and an OL that HAS to improve (it couldn't get much worse).

Just some food for thought. I still think there are bright days ahead...we just have to recruit better OL and I think we will be good to go.
