Dak Prescott fighting more than defenses; throwing mechanics

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott is challenging more than the New York Giants in Week 2. Prescott’s biggest opponent is science. Somehow, Prescott has become an NFL quarterback without learning how to throw the football efficiently.

Dak has covered a lot of his deficiencies with his legs. Even with “mobile” quarterbacks, NFL offensive systems are and will continue to be designed for quarterbacks that can make accurate throws from the pocket.

It may seem odd for me to question Prescott’s accuracy when he has a 65% completion percentage. Unfortunately, numbers can be deceiving.
