There's not much thing as half a game. Either you play in a game or you don't. He played in 5 games.

Brady had 12 interceptions so if you win the Super Bowl and have 14 interceptions I could careless.


For statistical purposes Dak played in 4.5 games as he left early in the 3rd quarter. Much like pitching in baseball a pitcher doesn't get credited with playing 9 innings if he only pitched 5-1/3 innings.

Regardless, there is no denying the fact that when Dak threw less Dallas won more.

Oh, they'll deny it. They're wrong, but they'll still deny it

Its not as black and white as that though.

When Dak threw less the Cowboys had a much better defense and a much better offensive line and running game.

All I wanted was an honest answer.

And you're right, the math wasn't off per say, but I should've went with 4.5 games instead of 4. Even then he still was "on pace" to lead the NFL in combined INTS and fumbles. Which I find very concerning playoffs or not.

I'm not concerned....its not uncommon for a guy to start his season off slow and then peak towards the end of the season. Had he did this all season I'd probably be concerned but Dak doesn't have a history of being careless with the football.

Mahomes
Brady
Rodgers
Allen
R. Wilson
Stafford

And soon to be....
Herbert
Burrow
Mayfield
Murray

Followed by......
Lawrence
Z. Wilson


I would take Dak over Jackson. Watson is in limbo. Dak is currently around 10-13 in today's NFL with the aging and retirement of Roethlisberger, Ryan, and Brees.

I don't care about garbage-time stats. I care about what players do when it matters in big moments.

Dak needs to keep this team in games all the time, no matter if it's a shootout or a defensive struggle. That's his problem to fix.
so mayfield and burrow and murray get benefit of the doubt and projected to be top 10. lawrence and wilson haven't played a down and already being crowned...Awsome :thumbup:

It's the skirt they're talking about, ya know.


I met Rod Tumbs at a 7/11 when I was a young kid. He was in there buying 40s and he was a pretty cool Dude. But I'm here to tell you, he doesn't wear skirts. He actually wears Tanks with flip flops and shorts with holes in them.

True story.

Well, I was talking about his wrestling character. I don't think he actually wears kilts any more than I think the Undertaker is actually a dead man.

Just curious as to how you would rank the top ten before TC starts?

I would have to rate it
1. Mahones- Right now he is the best QB out there.
2.Aaron Rodgers- Yes I dont care for him but the truth cant be hidden he is pretty close to Mahones. URGhhhh
3.Tom Brady- He one the SB last year even though he is declining he is still a GOAT.
4.Russel Wilson- This guy has done a lot for Seattle with little to no help here lately. He put up good numbers despite the supporting cast.
5. Josh Allen- Big Arm big legs and he is a pretty smart player.
6. Dak Prescott- If he plays like he did last year and stays healthy Dak is a great QB
7.Matt Ryan- He still is a good QB and Im sure he will have some good numbers this year.
8. Lamar Jackson- Has great legs lol
9. Kyler Murray- Im not going to say Im sold on him but he has some good players that will make him look better.
10.Ryan Tannehill- I think he is a under rated player
11. Kirk Cousins- He still puts up some good number I think he is on the down side of his career.
12 Deshaun Watson- If it wasnt for his off field problems he might be higher. I think he is a good QB with a badly ran team I can understand him wanting out of Houston.
13.Matt Stafford- Curious to see what he does under McVay He is an upgrade to Goff and he could be scary good. Will be the best team that he has ever played on.
14.Derek Carr- He has the tools just waiting for him to break out.
15.Joe Burrow- He will probably rise this list after the start of the year but It looks like Cincy got their QB if he gets some OL help He will be a pretty good QB
16.Baker Mayfield- I dont know about him either dang he has had some really good WR and a pretty good RB waiting for him to take that next step.

The rest is a toss up.
Jared Goff, Sam Darnold and Carson Wentz could climb back up with their change of scenery.
Tysom Hill played well in his spot duty but heck were not sure who the starting QB is
Fitz is so Fickle you dont know who your going to get.
Ben was horrible last year
Cam is a has been
Daniel Jones ????
Your New Rookie QB is a wait and see.

I think you just about nailed it. I'd move Ryan below Lamar and Murray. Herbert looks like he's gonna be special also. If he build off last season he will be in the conversation for top 5 next year. I dont know how to rank him at this point, because it seems premature.

@Chuck 54 I don’t recall Aikman losing a super bowl. Thought his record was 3-0, not 3-1.
Absolutely. I’m getting old and was thinking about the 1 loss in game to go to the SB. The team is 5-5 in championship games. Meredith 0-2 vs GB. Morton 0-1 vs Baltimore. Staubach 2-2 with losses to Pittsburg. Aikman 3-0.
