Dak gets another Top 5 ranking

It's honestly not my problem if you don't like my opinions. You can always hit that ignore button, ignore everyone that doesn't think Dak is the GOAT, and create that echo chamber that you so badly seem to want.

Cowboy fans don’t believe he’s the GOAT.

Hit that ignore, that echo chamber you're searching for is only a few ignores away.

No, I’d rather alert everyone to trolling. Ignoring doesn’t work well enough anyway as I’d still see your post when others quote it.

Regardless, it’s not your opinions that bother me. It’s your agenda.

Well, I just hope that when the season starts and if things don't go the way you see it that you're able to admit it. Because I have no issues admitting when I'm wrong, but I have a feeling some people are just a little too far in their feels there come back.

I don’t think we’re a playoff team if we aren’t in worse division. I’m an apathetic disgruntled diehard fan. And I’ve been a critic of Daks over the years. But I don’t troll our QB on a fan forum.

Nobody cares who’s right or wrong. This is an anonymous fan forum. We don’t keep score. Another troll attribute.

Trolling and criticism is too different things. A lot of you would do well to learn the difference.

These days it's really hard to find anyone who don't rank him from #5-7. Sure we weren't winning, but Quarterbacks have struggled even under good conditions - and with good receivers. (like Kirk Cousins has a really good supporting cast, but he's still middle of the pack)

Dak was ripping it in all of the games he actually played in last year. The only one he looked merely decent was against the #1 defense.... the Rams. I can totally see why he's Top 5. Everyone else but the Top 6 has looked horrible at times last year.

No. 5: Dak Prescott — Cowboys
It’s so weird to think of a Dallas Cowboys quarterback flying under the radar, but it feels like Prescott is the best quarterback people don’t really talk about when it comes to the NFL’s best passers. This is probably due (in part) to a year of Cowboys fans saying Dak wasn’t that good because he didn’t sign a low-ball offer, now needing to pivot into championing him again.

No. 4: Deshaun Watson — Texans
Honestly, I don’t know what Watson’s situation will be in 2021. There’s a pending league investigation into allegations of sexual assault, and that could mean he’s suspended for a significant amount of time. However, if we look purely at on-field play he remains one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL, even on the league’s most dysfunctional roster.

No. 3: Tom Brady — Bucs
Brady is past the point where he’ll be a stat-stuffing God, but until someone else proves it he’s still the best pure winner at the position in football. With the support around him in Tampa Bay, there’s nothing preventing him from having another great season, perhaps even taking the Buccaneers back to the Super Bowl.

No. 2: Patrick Mahomes — Chiefs
It’s Pat Mahomes. Nuff said, really. Seriously though, crushing Super Bowl loss aside, the Chiefs have made moves to get Mahomes more protection, which feels like the only thing holding him back from throwing for 5,000 yards a season like it’s nothing.

No. 1: Aaron Rodgers — Packers
Rodgers is the reigning MVP, sure — but this is also a product of him doing so much with such little support. For Rodgers to actually be the top quarterback again in 2021 could depend on where he plays, but I have a feeling enough will be done to keep him in Green Bay and get him some help.

You can, but Tom Brady has 7 rings. He can be given a pass for a few bad games. We know by now his bad games mean nothing in the grand scheme of the season.

Daks won nothing. If Dak has even 1 ring you could be able to look past a bad game or two, but he's won nothing and is now the 2nd highest paid player ever for it. He doesn't deserve any leeway until he proves those bad games don't matter in the long run. He hasn't proven that because he's won nothing.

Then you bring up Mahomes. A guy who has an MVP and 2 trips to the Super Bowl with 1 Super Bowl victory in his FIRST THREE SEASON IN THE LEAGUE.

Why in the world people compare Dak to these guys is beyond me. What has in done in 5 years to even think you can justify his bad play by bringing up proven winners and MVPs as examples?

If you're going to give Dak a pass by using the "it takes a team," then you have to use the same concept for others. So Stafford has to be in the top 5 talk with seven 4000 yard seasons and one 5000 yard season since 2011. How's that for getting production out of the position?

To be clear, I wasn't comparing Dak to either Brady or Mahomes. I used Brady and Mahomes as extreme examples to make my point that all quarterbacks, even the best, have bad games. Since Prescott hasn't won titles yet, the vibe I get from fans is he has to be literally perfect each and every single game.

That's both unfair and unrealistic. My fear is the Cowboys will waste Dak's career the same way they wasted Tony Romo's career.

Who said he was the goat. On the opposite end you think he sucks and that’s laughable
