I agree with the premise, Dallas best shot is for Brady and the Bucs to take out GB and the Cowboys get to stay at home. The Rams will be tough BUT I do believe the pass rush can impact Stafford.

Not easy, but definitely the preferred path.

I'm all in on Dak, but I don't think you're wrong. Two of those guys are sure fire Hall of Fame QB's and still playing like it. The third could be considered for the HOF with a Superbowl. Stafford is a WAY better QB than most give him credit for. Dak hasn't done it yet. While I disagree with you about how good Dak is and can be, he hasn't done what those others have done yet. I'd say he's on the same trajectory as Stafford if he doesn't win in the post season. Dak absolutely needs to play well and help this team win a Superbowl. If he doesn't, he'll end up a footnote in history and nothing more.

If Prescott was drafted by the Lions he might be out of the league by now.

I'm sorry I confused you.

If those 4 teams, which will be the 1-4 seeds regardless of the order, all win their wild card game...and one obviously gets a bye, then the Cowboys will be advancing with the worst QB remaining.

Which is normal when you pay a guy 40 million a year.

you didn’t confuse me. I asked you how you thought Dallas would have a better qb in the divisional round even if the seeds changed ? That was your statement. “If the seeds remain the same.” Well that’s irrelevant to your point. That’s my point.

I'm sorry I confused you again.

If they don't hold serve and a team like the Eagles, Saints or maybe the 49ers advance then you couldn't say that.

Let me know if this is sinking in yet.

I agree completely here. 2 seed and these matchups isn’t terrible. We need the rams to win out. Obviously, we need to win out as well.
I totally think it’s better to have the number to Seed. Simply because of that scenario

Thanks. Feel free to show me more meaningless stats that have nothing to do with what I'm talking about.

We’re really talking about Stafford as a HoF quarterback? That’s comical.

The bottom line is if the seeds hold serve in the wild card round the Cowboys will have the worst QB in the divisional round.

Rodgers Brady Stafford Prescott

One of these things is doing it's own thing.
I don’t see how you can put Stafford anywhere higher than Dak. Yes he has more arm talent but he’s never proven anything past that. He’s had some crap games this year as well, hasn’t been a consistently great QB at all.

I like him and wouldn’t be surprised by him winning some playoff games but I don’t think he’s in the Tom Brady/Rodgers grouping. He’s more in that 6-10 range where Dak is.

Really hope we get the #1 seed. We have to win, but GB can absolutely lose to the Vikings. Hell, I think they can lose to the Lions.

i can’t make any case that the two seed is better than the one seed. That week of rest is huge, not to mention HF throughout. The biggest wildcard this year is Covid.

Did you say this before or after it was announced Kirk Cousins has been ruled out for the Packers game because of COVID? :(

I feel like the Rams are a younger healthier version of Tampa.

I know Brady is Brady but they are banged up and with our tight coverage and pass rush we would get to him.

I think we can run against the rams but not so much against tampa

Stafford isn’t better than Dak, but it’s cute how now you’re hyping a QB who has zero career playoff wins (in his 13th NFL season) and a sub-.500 career W/L record.

I guess “WINZ” only matter when know-nothings like you are trying to disparage Dak.

You don’t come off as a total dolt, I swear.
