BTB. Making crucial plays in the biggest games is Dak Prescott's next step

Whirlwin · May 28, 2020

I’m tired of eating my words. First Quarter second quarter third quarter. Everyone slamming Prescott. Comes the fourth quarter we have the ball in our hands last. That’s where he shined best throughout his career. From the first quarter until the last quarter, everything in between is called football. When the game is on the line give me Prescott

So, it's Romo's fault now? If that is the case, then don't you think that if Dak learned from that, he would not want that to happen? He wants to take a big chunk of money from the "team" like you are saying Romo did. Make the same mistake? Well, if Dak does never win a SB, at least he has his coin...same as Romo, however, Romo was 10 time the QB that Dak is.

Yeh its romo's fault he doesn't know how to slide. Romo is glorified because he took us out of QB pergatory. He was average at best until later on but then his body started breaking down on him. Romo is a stain on a couch that you look at sometimes and go man i remember spilling that beer at a party I had. Reminisce to yourself for 5 seconds and move on.

BTW difference is Dak plays every game.

“That sums up Dak Prescott,” Cowboys guard Zack Martin said. “He’s going to do whatever it takes to help us win. Any time you see your quarterback throwing his body around like that to do whatever he can to help us win it’s inspiring.

“He’s a winner. I wouldn’t want anyone else being our quarterback.”

Since 1994, which is as far back as Pro Football Reference goes on this particular stat, Prescott leads the league in career passer rating when tied or trailing by eight points or fewer in the fourth quarter or overtime.

He has a 109.7 passer rating in that situation, leading all quarterbacks who have at least 100 attempts when tied or trailing by one score in the fourth quarter or overtime. In fact, no other quarterback has a passer rating above 100 with Andrew Luck (97.7), Romo (95.4), Russell Wilson (93.8), Ben Roethlisberger (93.3) and Drew Brees (92.4) trailing.

8-8...what a comeback. Oh, and check out his other winning records.

Let me just talk about the big chunk of money. It means nothing. It’s inflated dollars in two Seasons Siri tired of people blaming the salary cap for not wanting Prescott

Dak has led the NFL in last drive comebacks since he came into the NFL

Dak has led the NFL in last drive comebacks since he came into the NFL

In a tightly contested game, expect Dak’s team to prevail…

Dak and the Dallas Cowboys have recorded 14 game winning drives and 8 fourth quarter comebacks. He’s also played in 19 close games. (A close game is a game decided by 6 points or less) The team’s record in these close games is 13-6. This is really good.

Drew Brees is the leader with 15 game winning drives since 2016. Derek Carr is the leader in fourth quarter comebacks, with 13.

Any more lies you want to have debunked, troll? May as well do it now while I have the tab open.

How many crucial moments as he had an opportunity to prove himself in. And then When had we had a ball in his hands last. He has come through. So I don’t understand your statement

Vikings, Philly, Saints, Jets, and Patriots

Each one of these games, he had the opportunity to take the lead or tie the game, and he failed...

Redball Express · May 28, 2020

Read my thread I just posted about this. Thanx.

Facts.
For as much flack his stanleys give Romo, he hasnt done crap in the crucial moments either

Facts. Romo & Prescott are the ONLY 2 quarterbacks (out of 8) after Aikman, that won playoff games. That said, I'd say the two have done more than crap in crucial moments. Especially with Garrett as their coach.

In his first year, Prescott threw for 13 touchdowns and 4 interceptions against above-.500 teams and compiled a 6-3 record, including the playoffs. Since then, his touchdown-to-interception ratio is 25-25 and his record as a starter is 6-17. Last year, he had an 8/8 TD/INT ratio and the Cowboys went 1-6 against teams with an above-.500 record.

Of course, you may be asking yourself, well, how do other top-paid QBs fair against quality competition? How do Prescott's stats stack up against those in the pay range he's looking to break into? I'm happy you asked.

Against over-.500 teams both in the regular season and the playoffs (when applicable), Aaron Rodgers had a 12/4 ratio and 5-3 record last year. Russell Wilson had an 11/4 ratio and a 4-4 record. Kirk Cousins had a 15/6 ratio and a 3-5 record. Jared Goff's ratio was 6/6 and his record was 2-4. Tom Brady was 6/5 and 3-4.

Patrick Mahomes, Lamar Jackson, and Deshaun Watson, Prescott's QB contemporaries also up for new deals soon, had numbers of 20/4 and 5-2, 10/3 and 5-2 and 12/5 and 4-3, respectively.

While Prescott isn't alone in his struggles against better teams, all of those quarterbacks outside of Goff were better than Prescott against elite competition last year. For the quarterbacks around his same age and stature (yes, Mahomes and Jackson are MVPs, but you get it), Prescott isn't even in the same ballpark.

Nope, this is dumb. Dak has led the NFL in last drive comebacks since he came into the NFL. And he played well in all 3 playoff games.

Like the rest of the team, he played poorly in ONE big game in Philly. Ironically, both the Rams game and Commanders game that sandwiched the PHilly game were equally as important at the time. Dak balled out in both those games.

Do we need to mention that Dak had a shoulder injury for the Philly game and didnt practice all week leading up to it?

Anything else you need instantly debunked?

Are you sure about Prescott leading in comebacks since he came into league?

Because Wilson, Brees, and Stafford all have more.

And he's lucky Luck retired and Ben got hurt, or he would probably trail them also.

The article says this has nothing to do with Prescott's contract negotiations and does give him credit for the Playoff Wildcard win vs Seattle. What is does say is that on Several Occasions, Dak hasnt always lived up to the moment in several crucial games recently.

Are we talking Romo's first four years vs Daks?

One WC playoff win...whoop-dee-dam-do!

Would like to see him take the next step...as in, lead the Boys out of the NFC conference round.

Until that happens, he’s Quincy Carter / Tony Romo, but with a better team around him.

Do it...don’t talk about it.

Btw...I’m happy with Dak as our QB... but he ain’t yet all that.

What's interesting here is I'm pretty sure a deeper analysis will show Dak's head coach had the same issues against winning teams/QBs.

Daks record against better teams a concern:

VS teams with 9 wins or less
35-11
75-17 TD / Int ratio
72.9 QBR
QBR. 2nd

VS Teams with 10 wins or more
5-13
22-19 TD ratio
55.3 QBR
19th

Last year Dak was 0-5 vs 10 wins or more teams

Cowboys struggled last year as they didn’t overcome any deficits after halftime of 7 points or more.

Daks 8 comebacks and 14 game winning drives lead the league since 2016 but the parameters are defined as tied or trailing by no more than 8 points in 4th qtr or OT.
