Saturday all the noise from the 2016 draft will be silenced. Jared Goff, Carson Wentz, Paxton Lynch, Christian Hackenberg, Jacoby Brissett, Cody Kessler and Connor Cook were selected before Dak Prescott.

Dak will prevail.

Your thoughts?

I don't know ... the next week, the Commanders might be starting Brissett. If we lose that one then clearly Dak is not the best QB in that class.

Yes Goff made a SB and got beat down. Ultimately Dak is the better QB

That's a lotta scrubs. Being the best qb in that class is easy, and doesn't say much.

Can't remember which idiot but somebody was claiming Lynch would have been a good QB in Dallas. The levels of stupidity

Unfortunately Wentz had his one MVP esque season, set the Eagles up for the 1 seed and got them their 4th championship.

I guess dak drove our bus to the 1 seed ONCE (though Zeke was the driving force)...but immediately failed in the playoffs. So....kind of a coin toss who was the better pick: the guy who got the 1 seed and didn't get the chance to prove himself that 1 great year, or the guy that DID get the chance to prove himself in the playoffs with the 1 seed and failed.

Not sure either team would change their pick in hindsight

I could care less about the draft redo or if Goff is better than Prescott,

all I want Prescott and the Dallas Cowboys team that will be capital letters TE AM to do is win this game it's important just because it's the next game but also it can stop the bleeding of the two game losing streak and stop the nonsense and the chatter on the Internet about the Cowboys can't beat good teams although it won't change with the road narrative it's still a team with a tough coach and they play tough they play better in the second-half they don't give up and it's a good team to go against right now to see where you stand gets us a win... Also think it'd be cool for three years straight to have a 12 and five record you finish on a two game win streak and you go into the playoffs for the little confidence..

I just hope that the Jimmy Johnson Ring of Honor induction doesn't distract our team and pump up their team I mean it could be a circus at halftime...

Four of those QBs are no longer in the league and Carson Wentz was unemployed until a few weeks ago. Before the Cowboys drafted Dak they tried to move up for Lynch and Connor Cook.

Goff has gone to a Super Bowl, won more playoff games than Dak, and beat him head-to-head in the 2018 playoffs.

But yeah, this game will be The Showdown Of The Century lol

Yeah but they did it not because they're idiots they were high on everybody's draft board it's not like Jerry and them are the only ones that were looking to draft those two guys they literally were drafted before Prescott because they were high on everybody's draft board literally that's the truth stop acting like they accidentally got away with drafting players that are actually high on other people's boards and did get drafted by some regular old GM's you know the standalone GM that everybody wants around here drafted all those quarterbacks ahead of Prescott... I find it ironic that people try to make Jerry and Steven or our scout department look dumb because say oh look they almost drafted some bad players well yeah but those bad players were drafted before they can get to them..

hmmm the hypocrisy it's like when they picked Tyler Smith everyone said he was a reach he was a project and that they were idiots and then when Jerry heard that he said look he was our highest rated offensive lineman on our bored and nobody believed him and he showed everybody the sheet of paper and still nobody believed him y'all act like they don't know how to draft they draft as well as any other team in the NFL and yes they make mistakes and sometimes they get lucky don't think Brock Purdy didn't end up a 49er and what he's become with some kind of special research that the 49ers did and they knew exactly what they were getting no he literally fell into their lap they got lucky because they blew it with Trey Lance and yet our GM and our staff gets the mocking we didn't give up three first rounders for Trey Lance we gave up a fourth and we got Prescott in the fourth round we got Tony Romo undrafted I'd say that we're doing pretty well even with these allegedly bad GM that we have here...

Wish they did. Romo would have returned in 2016 and got the ring

Dak beat the Lions with Goff last year
and I still haven't done any research but I'm pretty sure that press got beat the Rams with Jared Goff in 2019 regular season game unless he was hurt or something they put a beat down on the Rams...we beat them in PS 2019 and then the 44-21 beatdown after that little 8 point loss in the playoff game.

So it looks like Prescott has beat Jared Goff plenty of times.. It's the selective memory that's really funny in here... Not ha ha funny but people keep trying to act like he's never beat Jared Goff when he only lost to him that one time that I remember in the playoff game but you know the Rams team beat him if we wanna be specific... I know it's not the same as the playoff game but that's definitely some revenge we had in 2019 and last year it looks like Prescott took it seriously and hasn't been beat by goff since...

Goff started off hot, but has never been as consistent. Let's be real

Look up his career stats. Not far off from Dak's and some of that with a crappy version of the Lions.

And he's won more when it counts.

That's real.
