If we’re talking solely about injuries, I think Burrow deserves it. Prescott’s was more gruesome looking, but knee ligament tears are more medically serious.

If we’re talking about “adversity”, Prescott’s ankle being such a gruesome injury, and his brother’s very unfortunate suicide, he’s definitely overcame immense adversity in this past year.

Lol….nope not what I said. Try again.

What part of Burrows had a JAG game is incorrect.
He was knocked over NINE TIMES, still threw over 350 yards and led his team to a win away at the Number 1 seed .

Such a JAG performance. We should be so lucky as Cowboys fans.

Go root for the team Dak joins in 3 years, all this football knowledge is awe inspiring for the rest of us.

Yes, Dak does. His injury was much worse than Burrow's and he was out longer than Burrow was. People can hate on Dak, and I get that, but his injury was really bad.

Helps that his defense picked off the Titans 3 times, but that seems to be lost in the Burrow praise.

We picked off the 49s . We have been picking off teams all year. Where it happens in the game is important. Burrows had an interception. Next year we will be hard pressed to do the same.

If Dak got sacked 51 times like Burrow did, you Dak defenders would be defending his 16 game ‘slump’ and blaming the Cowboys OL for losing the division to the Eagles, led by Hurts..
IF my aunt had your ******....... you'd still be my aunt.


So what??

No TD's and 1 pick. Yards were nice, but that defense won the game for him. And the kicker. I think he is one of the ONLY QB's that ever won a game being sacked 9 times. Defense.

I cannot believe this stupid idea is still on page 1.

Hello, comeback player of the year is not based on performance. It has nothing to do with which player played the best. It doesn’t even have to be an injured player. Read what the award actually is before just spewing hate on Dak and not knowing what you are talking about.

Comeback player recognizes a player who persevered and came back from either injury, poor performance the previous year, or being out of football for a year. No one can say Dak doesn’t deserve recognition for persevering through a gruesome, possibly career ending injury and a subsequent surgery to return to the starting lineup in less than a year. His work ethic and perseverance have been well documented by the media, coaches, and other players, even doctors.

Dak is a man. He deserves criticism for poor play, but it’s just stupid to tie that to this award.

Why not a comeback candidate? He came back from horrific injury to throw 37 TD, as his team won their division and went 12-5.
