Dak is not elite and most rational fans know this . Others are delusional.
Dak is grossly overpaid and so is zeke . But Dak adds much more value than zeke . Dak is Dak ,a good system QB , if the running game is off or the OL is shaky , Dak cannot carry the team .

I see you know the game also, glad ya dropped by.

You do not pay any RB big $$$$, that says it all about the Jerry Jones. There are RB's all over place, hell...Tony Pollard out of Memphis.

First Cowboy 1000 yard rusher was out of......Yale, Calvin Hill. First stud RB my avatar Don Perkins out of New Mexico.

You want to compare Daks first five seasons to Russell Wilsons, trust me.....no ya don't.

As we know Brady, Rodgers and Mahomes were baby sat early on, but when unleashed they were were superior to Dak.

You can toss up Russ all you want. If you stick Dak on that team with the Legion of Boom defense, Dak would have had the same success. Im not saying Dak is better that Russ, but Dak is a damn good qb.

If Dak had better coaching and a better defense, years ago, he would have had better success.

Now let's ask THIS question.... what has Russell Wilson done since he choked in the Superbowl and that defense left????

I'll wait.....

Cool this...I'll wait,..ok?

Dude, Russell Wilson is on a totally other level than Dak Prescott, he is the only QB to ever have a 4000/30/500season he is 15 yards short of having three of them, no QB has won more games in their nine seasons or started more games. He is an 8 time pro bowler, Dak...two. He has a 101.1 passer rating, he has 279td only 84 INT, he is the 4th all time QB rusher, dude....Dak is nowhere remotely close to Russell Wilson.

He's had his best stats after BEAST MODE/LEGION OF BOOM, it appears ya know nothing about Russell Wilson.

Well?

What has he ever done that had anyone thinking he was on a level with Brady, Rodgers, Mahomes, Wilson.

All of those guys have played in how many Superbowls, Dak has won how many playoff games?

This, well ya see it's the market is weak and lame, how about does he deserve elite $$$$$ when nothing about him is really elite.

Not a hater, love my Cowboys and that is why this bugs me, two guys getting too much of our $$$$ in Dak and Zeke and we all know it. We need an offensive line not a running back which are a dime a dozen.

Watching Brady do his thing tonight THAT is an elite QB,
I'll agree on Elliott. Jerry got absolutely hosed on the structure when he continued to double down on his Garrett infatuation.

As far as Prescott, it's about supply vs demand. His rookie deal was wasted entirely on Garrett.

It wasn't Daks fault that the inept staff couldn't do a thing about what the Rams did to us up the gut in the last playoff game as one example.

He was about to become a free agent, and they didn't give up that deal all that willingly as we all should recall quite well.

If the Joneses clung to the idea that "he hasn't won any Super Bowls....or he isnt elite" during negotiations.....he would have taken his act elsewhere and someone else would have gladly paid him.

You mention Brady tonight....take a look at the other QB selected 8th overall. THATS a problem.

There's a list of guys starting in the NFL that are pure garbage that not only can't carry a team, but can't even play well on a consistent basis....and many of THEM don't cost much less than Prescott does.

His career is not complete and its not close, and the first few years of it were thrown away by a completely inept coaching staff. I'm surprised he has developed as well as he has considering.

He isnt Aaron Rodgers and never will be, but even HE needs reasonable blocking and his WR to catch balls that hit them in the hands and chest.

What does Sunday have to do with his contract? Yep, nothing!

What had he ever done BEFORE that contract signing that was on a level with Wilson/Mahomes/Brady/Rodgers, well?
Name 5 other QBs on planet earth that are better than Dak Prescott at 2:26am on 11/23/21. I like our odds with him more than I do without him. Either way, he’s our Quarterback and he can beat all of those guys you named. It might not be every time he plays them - but he only has to beat 2 or MAYBE 3 of them 1 time.

I'm not building a sound case when only negative focus and the need to just earn the faith needed to know the facts and truth...are the elements being missed as a 'fan.' Cutting to the chase: see a recruiter.

Bragging to bring into view a solid defense of directions? Cherry picking is more political than explaining sport or even one's team (coughing loudly).

Now explain how Wilson just ended up with a contract with his former team...

I'm a Cowboys lifer who appreciates Dak's work ethic but for starters I'd have to add Lamar Jackson & Herbert to that list too.

It was a HUGE mistake to sign Dak to that contract right before the draft.
Mac Jones is looking like another Brady in the making and was on the board at 12.

Yeah, but Mac Jones is learning from real coaches. Here he'd be learning from Kellen "Genius" Moore and whatever cardboard cutout we have as HC.

Jerry is determined to find his superstar. Part of a superstar's profile is a huge paycheck, thus $40 mil. That is a lot of money with which to fumble and get intercepted.

He makes elite money because he’s an elite QB. As I’ve said before, he’ll look cheap in 2023.

Not sure why some people are spazzing out. He had 4 dropped passes, 3 of which were in pretty significant spots during the game. Wasn’t a big fan of the play calling, either. As it was, it’s not like Mahomes played a great game and made Dak look like a chump. Penalties in bad spots as well, but actually an improvement versus our season average.

On the road, WR1 & WR2 out, TE2 out, AWFUL o-line performance, which also led to no run support. Less than 2 seconds to pass on several of those 5 sacks. Not really worried about our QB.

Bright spot: defense.

FWIW, was there anyone here but me that predicted we’d score 9 total points? Yeah, I predicted a 9-3 win (in jest, really), but still….

I HATE these games that are incredibly overhyped by everyone: by both teams’ fan bases and the media. I wish the team could go into seclusion for games like this and not have access to social/regular media. I know these guys are pros, but they’re still people, and young people at that. No way both teams weren’t feeling a little of that.

Do you not recall a lengthy contract dispute between the FO and Prescott?

I'm pretty sure Jerry tried your argument in negotiations....and was told to stick it.

The alternative would be to have let him walk.

Would you rather have Bridgewater at 25 million?

What does Kirk Cousins make?

The OP asks why he makes what he makes. The answer is because of supply and demand.

I won't dispute your list of who is better, but the answer to your question lies in the list of who is WORSE, not better.

The time came for a decision to be made, and life could be a lot worse around here at QB.

Sorry he couldn't go into KC with no blocking and one of the worst WR corps performances I've ever seen....and 5-6 of our top players on the sidelines...and beat one of the guys we all admit is better than him.

Unfortunately, in today's NFL when you see a guy show some talent you have to take a chance and pay him, you pay him knowing if he isn't that guy you are in for 3-4 years of more disappointment, just look around the league it happens frequently. The O was built and is loaded to elevate Dak game and he needs that support, unfortunately to this point he hasn't shown the ability to carry a team without all those pieces yet, he has at least 3 more seasons to show that quality, only time will tell and according to the so-called cap gurus around here it doesn't matter what they pay him there is a magic wand that Jerry waves that fixes the cap $$$ whenever they want to. This season and next will tell the tale we just have to wait it out.

The thing ya need to be sorry about is because we pay two players way too much we have a subpar offensive line.

Hell nah he didn't. But of course no one is a Romo fan anymore. Anytime you question these guys they say "I was never a big Romo fan....". That's some BS lol. Guys are Romo fans to this day and there's some still upset that Dak won that job.
I see Romo is still in your head too, wonder why you hate him so.
