Where do you slot him and who above and below?

And if he’s outside the top ten by all means show your work as well.

“Top ten” , “Top fifteen” etc are abstract concepts without people occupying the spots. So what say you?

1. Dak, no need to list any others. :muttley:

So don't everyone get all up in a wad, I hope you do know I am not serious.

But I would say 12 to 15 range stat wise and overall, but with the game on the line, as he has shown, he is in the 8 to 12 range. Maybe a little higher.
However that is based on seeing all the games, and not all the other QB's games. We get a slanted perspective on both wins and losses.

In no particular order.
No doubt I`d take: Brady, Ben, Mayfield, Rivers, Mahomes, Watson, Luck, Rodgers, Stafford, Ryan, Brees, Cam, Wentz, Goff and Wilson over Dak,

Cousins, Mariota, Jimmy G, and others are comparable, then you have the young ones that are not included here like Arnold and Allen that could end up being better.

Top 10? better than Matt Ryan who had arguably a better year than his mvp season? Better than Rivers who just went 12-4 and lit up the chiefs? How many people are in your top 10? 15?
Take it how you wish. I think he is top 10 or top 12. That’s based on he and his teams body of work with a 3 year sample size. The other 2 that you mentioned and others that would be ranked above him have had a longer career.

It’s like you trying to place wentz, he has had 3 years and has missed time with injuries.

Matt Ryan is overrated...he has a good oline had 2 RBs 1 pro bowler..arguably the best WR and always had weapons. Dak had a injured Dez.. 3 backup Olineman and No TE...Ryan is terrible in the playoffs . not clutch & chokes in big situations .. hes Matt Stafford at best.. Dak is a top 10-12 QB this will be his telling year....

Mahomes has played less than Dak. So has Watson, so has Mayfield. Your point by saying everyone ahead of him has played longer is those three are all inferior to Dak Prescott?

Brady, yes
Ben, yes but he is on the downside
Mayfield, no, need to see him this year first
Rivers, yes, but you can also say overall comparable as you listed a few in that category, long career stats does not make him better overall
Mahomes, yes, but also need to see his 2nd full season, but yes
Watson, no, give me Dak for now, need to see more from Watson, I am not all that impressed yet
Luck, yes
Rodgers, yes
Stafford, not really, put him in with Rivers, neither has won over their careers, just stat guys
Ryan, yes, but in a way no, got team to the SB, but look at his surrounding cast also. have you truly seen him carry the team
Brees, yes
Cam, not from the past season, but yes in his 3rs year and a few after. but not now, but he could be again
Wentz, no, not rally, but comparible
Goff, yes he has shown a lot in his 2 years as a full time starter
Wilson, yes, but he also had the D that Dak needs, and he has improved over the years, so still at this point, yes

not going to say who is number 1 or not...but those who rank above him as of today, regardless of age.

I take any of these today, over Dak.
Brady
Brees
Rodgers
Newton
Rivers
Rothlisberger
Wilson
Watson
mahomes
Stafford
grapolo
ryan
wentz
luck

the next group can be debated ad naseum

Goeff
Mayfield
cousins
turbisky
carr
mariota

other young QBs that maybe up and coming but not where Dak is today.
Darnold


so depending on the debate that puts dak in the middle of the pack, which has been the argument all along, with Dak lovers, keep spitting out meaningless stats comparing him to some of the all time greats like marino, montana, Elway, brady, etc.....


and yes, the Cowboys won 13 games in 2016...as Dak lovbers like to make it, it was all dak all the time...the 3 losses was because the OL didn't give him protection, the WRs dropped balls, the defense didn't play well, the play calls were awful...but man those 13 wins were all Dak

Ok. Most of the ones above him has longer careers.

And mayfield has played 1 season and Dak had better stats. I think watson who looks good only player 1 1/2 seasons. And mahomes who looks good has really only played 1 year. With that little of a playing time it’s hard to know if they will continue to play at that level. It’s not that they don’t deserve to be on the list just hard to evaluate.
