Let me see....hmmm to get into the playoffs kinda like winning your division in basketball. It doesn't mean jack, you win the NBA finals or you have achieved nothing all season. To bring up a basketball comparison, who cares or even remembers who won the northwest, pacific, or southwest division. You remember who won the finals, that's important. I could careless who won the NFC east, if we got a wildcard birth and ended up winning the Super Bowl. Now if you get a wildcar and go one and done, your season was crap..if you won the division and go one and done, you season was crap.

Jesus you really hate Dak huh. Think the coaches played Dak because he had the greatest rookie yr for a QB in the history of the nfl. Surpassing the numbers put up by the previous guy in Roethlesberger.

Can some one please Illuminate me?

What "RECORD BREAKING NUMBERS" did Prescott put up last year?

(Wins and win streaks are TEAM accolades)

I mean, I would understand if he had Marino numbers (50 TD 5000 YD season) but if you ask me, his numbers look pretty mediocre.
(Dak- 3600 YD , 23 TD, 4 INT)


Heck , the Vikings better hurry up and sign the second coming of Marino ( keenum- 3500 YD, 21 TD, 7 INT ) long term before it's too late!!

I think what happened was, people rushed to anoint Prescott and a false narrative began because he played "well" for a 4th round rookie..

What most fans don't understand is that most rookie QBs go to bad teams. how lucky was Prescott to land on a team with the supporting cast he had?

People with half a brain knew better than to "annoint" Prescott because we knew he had a "stars align perfectly" kinda season...

Winning your division in the NFL improves your odds of making it to the Super Bowl which is why that’s every teams first goal entering the season. Winning your division can lead to a first round bye and a home playoff game. If you check history not many wildcard teams have made it to the Super Bowl because it’s a much tougher road. You have to win three playoff games to make it to the Super Bowl as a wildcard team. If you win your division and get a bye, you only need two playoff wins to reach the Super Bowl.

Not many fans would be happy losing the division title every year, having the scratch and claw for a wildcard birth but apparently you would be. Go tell anyone who’s part of the NFL that winning your division means nada and see what their reaction is. No Fanbase is going to be happy with a QB who can’t lead their team to division titles. If they can’t do that you’re not likely to win a championship with them. You’re lobbying for a QB who hasn’t even ledvtheir team to the playoffs.

That's all true, but I really don't judge my qbs based on their divisional titles.
Rg3 led the Commanders to a division title and Cousins has led them to none, but yet RG3 is no longer in the NFL and cousins is getting franchised every year and is a coveted free agent. Pretty much everyone agrees that rg3 is trash compared to cousins. I like to judge my qbs on Super Bowl wins. Those are the things that matter the most and can get a qb into the hall of fame. Eli will make it because of the two Superbowls whereas Romo will not - now I love Romo but that a huge factor on how qbs are judged and remembered.

I remember this guy used to HATE Romo because he couldn't win in the playoffs..

Talk about double standards..

As I said, the most ardent Dak supporters were Romo's harshest critics..

I got news for you buddy your memory is bad if you think that guy was me. You can be critical of a QBs playoff performances and not hate them.

Everything I’m telling you is true. For those who think Dak is going to end up like RG3 they’re going to be wrong. You can judge your QBs anyway you want. I don’t judge mine the way you judge yours. We see things way too differently to continue wasting time on this.
