From the article

Dart thrilled Giants fans with his masterful opening week game leading the Giants to a win over Dallas, but that's all we got to see of him in year two. Questions linger in the minds of some about both his passing and defense-reading skills, and his shelf life as well given his penchant for running and not avoiding contact.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Dart's rushing ability and early performance suggest upside despite injury concerns and questions about passing/defense-

Dart had a scintillating rookie season in the eyes of Giants fans, thrilled them with a masterful opening week game leading the Giants to a win over Dallas in 2026, and showed great performance in Week 1 of 2027 before a meniscus, MCL, and PCL injury in Game 2 ended his season; his PFF passing grade correlates with QBR at 0.67, and his worst games in PFF's view mostly have higher QBR due to his rushing game contribution (54 rushing yards and rushing TD in his Chargers debut), suggesting his running ability adds value beyond traditional passing metrics.
