Then nothing matters lol

Nothing short of the SB as far as individual awards. JG won coach of the year. lol

The Cowboys as a whole are too up and down. Wilson or Jackson will get the MVP. It would be crazy if he did win it though, he would probably want $40 million a year.

deserves to be in the running.

People who win the MVP are on a winning team. We end up at .500 I don't care what Dak's numbers are, he isn't going to win.

I agree Dak won’t win the award because the team likely won’t be in the playoffs. But his excellent play is deserving of at least a mention when the choice is made, assuming he keeps it up thru the remainder of the season.

Who would have predicted that Dak would be a potential MVP candidate yet the team would be very disappointing? I didn’t see that potential scenario haha.

Romo finished 3rd in the MVP race and fans still acted like he was a tomato can. Same thing will happen with Dak

He already finished 6th in MVP voting in 2016 and was hated that year, too.

SO early still. Barely halfway through.

Still
TD-int differential is a key stat for me.

That sets Wilson apart in a big way

Dak is tied for 11th, I think. Not terrible but not MVP like either.

Btw, I know he won't win, but McCaffery belongs on a list somewhere. He's having an epic season so far and carrying that offense with a backup QB

Superbowl MVP is all that matters;

Even then, if there's no standout, they often just give it to the winning QB.
And then there was that Dallas DB who got it when they threw 2 picks right to him.
:muttley:

Russell Wilson has got it for this year, unless Cook or McCaffrey make a run at the scrimmage yards record.

The problem with the INT stat is it doesn’t take into account when the QB isn’t at fault at all.

Dak has 2 INTs on Hail Marys and at least 2 others that simply bounced off the receiver’s hands. Tough to count those against him.

He has zero chance... the MVP is a narrative award, and that narrative seems to be drifting towards Jackson and Wilson. The Cowboys own narrative as a team that can’t beat anybody with a pulse isn’t helping.

True but as stated, a lot can happen in 7 games.

He certainly didn't hurt his chances Sunday night......

MVP Watch

1. Russell Wilson, QB, Seattle Seahawks

2. Lamar Jackson, QB, Baltimore Ravens

3. Deshaun Watson, QB, Houston Texans

4. Aaron Rodgers, QB, Green Bay Packers

5. Dak Prescott, QB, Dallas Cowboys

This ranking isn't because of Wilson's final drive heroics during "Monday Night Football" against the 49ers. He would be ranked here even if this game had ended on his overtime interception or his overtime three-and-out instead of his fifth game-winning drive of the season. Wilson has been so consistently excellent all season that it's not a hot take to believe Seattle's biggest win came in one of his worst games overall.

Any list without Mahomes in the top 5 on it is highly suspect.

2nd in TD-int differential behind Wilson 18 TDs and only 1 int ...wow
1st in ypa
1st in ypg (not really a great stat but still)
2nd in Passer rating behind Wilson

He also has some that bounced off defenders hands ..

But he has at least 8-9 dropped ints...maybe more. 3 just last game
Other ints broken up by our WRs too
This stuff averages out and all QBs have good and bad luck both ways

Just like a QB gets credit if he throws a 2 yard pass that goes 60 yards for a TD

I think Daks is having a real nice year, btw. But ints do matter.

That’s fair. I don’t think most other QBs have 2 INTs on Hail Marys, but it happens.

Still too early on MVP. Hec, Colin K. could come in and steal it from both of them. :lmao:
