Allen and Burrow likely on their way to a SB. In their tenure in the league they have done what is deserved to command a $55M plus contract.

Baker, Dak - not worth with tenure in league and results

Hurts/Lamar - big bets on upside - age is a factor here - worth it because they are young and have not been in the league for 9 years.
Hurts/Lamar are fortunate to have a front office that uses all three routes--draft, FA, trades--to keep a good team on the field.

The QB bar is pretty low right now as far as team playoff wins

At least 3 recent retirees would be at or near the very top of that list

Brady with 35…..1st place by a mile
Ben with 13….
Brees with 9…..

when A-rod and Russ retire it will be Mahomes then a couple of guys who had some wins in 1 post season run...kinda crazy how they achieved parody while keeping a "TB12" to market in Mahomes.

It's been crazy witnessing Mahomes come into the league and just immediately own it.

Also, Russ should have 2 trophies next to him on that list if his coaching staff just ran the ball instead of getting cute.

^ This.

There is an off-topic perspective that kinda grinds my gears. Super Bowl hype is automatically assigned to the winning team's quarterback. That was true for Tom Brady and Super Bowl XLIX too.

However, it was Malcolm Butler clutch play that won the championship for New England because of Pete Carroll's arrogance like you mentioned. It was a spectacular defensive play made on 2nd & Goal:

Ricardo Lockette hesitates running the inside slant for a split second but I would argue it would not have mattered. Butler still gets a great jump on the route and would have likely jarred the ball out of Lockette's grasp and caused an incompletion anyway. That would have been a better outcome for Seahawks since they had two more downs and twenty seconds to score.

One thing is certain. Marshawn Lynch will forever agree Carroll got cute on the fateful call. :muttley:

Postseason win percentages:

Mahomes .833
Burrow .714
Purdy .667
Flacco .625
Wilson .562
Rodgers .524

Allen .500
Stafford .500
Goff .500
Mayfield .500

Hurts .400
Jackson .333
Prescott .286 (worst in NFL history with 7 or more starts)

Don't pay Dak, and don't listen to people try to justify Dak's failure on QBs with better playoff records than Dak. The historical results are clear, and damning. Paying Dak would be foolish. This is not hyperbole, it is pure numbers based upon history - Dak is 99% likely to never get it done if he hasn't gotten it done by this point in his career.
How about don’t keep Dak, cut him now. If he’s not “the guy” why give him even one more game?
