Couple questions:
Why would the NFL want a fullback to play qb?
Since Fitz is infinitely better than Dak, will he be the #1 pick? Is he the GOAT?

Dan looked like an NFL quarterback Saturday night. That's the best I've even seen an MSU QB look ... that game was a pleasure to watch.

Agreed. That was the most accurate I've ever seen him. Don't recall any throws that were off the mark.

Just saw where CBSsports now has him listed as the #7 QB with a solid 3rd round

grade. As others have already said, he's go a lot riding on the rest of this season. With strong performances against Bama, OM, and in in the postseason, I could see him playing his way into 2nd round consideration. With a late season tank job like last year, though, it wouldn't be terribly difficult to drop down.

Glad the writer of that piece didn't go for the lazy Tim Tebow comparison like seemingly everyone else does. I think Dak is sometimes hamstrung by that comparison seeing that Tebow was a bust in the NFL. Dak's accuracy and throwing mechanics are much better than Tebow's. It seems Dak made a great decision to come back for his senior year, because his draft stock has certainly risen now that NFL scouts see the improvement he has made in his pocket presence and accuracy.

He had one throw that was bad, and it wasnt even the pick. I think it was in the third quarter and he rolled to his right. I think he had a miscommunication with Bear but he delivered one in the stomach of the UKY safety. The safety had to sort of dive/fall forward and dropped it.

It was a worse ball than his actual interception and the only throw of the night I had a problem with. I actually had no problem with the pick and was glad he took a chance with Brown.

Speaking to that comment, does our offense look more like what you think NFL scouts would like out of a talent like Dak? It seems like with our "light" read option more pocket passing offense this year, it reminds me of what San Fran is doing with Kaepernick and how the Eagles are working Bradford.
