I think most of us would take Hebert. But again, the "stats are for losers, winning is all that matters" QB club isnt using the same logic with Herbert. If you dont like Dak because of the teams lack of success in winning and in the playoffs then you should like Herbert less.
They ask Herbert to go win them games.

We ask Dak to not screw it up and when he’s our biggest advantage not to give the game away on the biggest stage.

Herbert is capable of things Dak isn’t because he’s an elite talent.

It baffles me that some of you can’t tell the difference between a guy running around making plays and carrying his team

Vs

A guy we’re wishing everything was perfect so the team could carry him…

Agreed, and if he doesn't start to progress in that area quick I think people will sour on him in sort of a Matt Ryan type of way. With that said though Herbert physically checks every box you could ask for in a quarterback. 6'6" 230LBS with a rocket arm and mobility to move in the pocket or take off and pick up cheap yards on the ground. Not to mention this was Herbert's age 24 season. Given his age, tools, and regular season success so far he's a guy you give a little more give more leeway too.

Really in retrospect, the "stats are for losers, winning is all that matters" crowd was the pro-Dak crowd until 2019 when Dak really had his statistical breakout.

He wasn't last year.
I think he has been in some other years.
Either way, not good enough. Much like Cousins, Tannehill and even guys like Lamar and Watson who are better but likely not going to win or get to a Super Bowl.

Another qb challenged fan that thinks team success or failure is all about the qb,
I am well aware that team success or failure is not all about the QB, but like it or not, in today's game, the QB has the most responsibility out of any player. That's why they make the big $$$$$$. Anyone who doesn't understand that is football-challenged.

You’re making this broad generalization.

It was the same way with people who thought Dak was better than Starfford.

Stafford was always an elite talent and he gets out of that loser of a football franchise and wins a Superbowlnin 1 year.

Guys like you were saying the same crap when I would say Stafford is better than Dak.

Well Herbert is twice the talent of both of both Dak and Stafford.
Dak is better than Stafford....one super bowl with a stacked team doesn't change that.

He was horrific this year before he was injured. Since we recency bias Dak on his less than stellar year, it is only right that we do that with Stafford as well.

Herbert twice the talent, half the qb....lol

What’s bad is you have no idea how clueless you are on this subject but it’s a cowboys message board so it’s to be expected.

Can anyone tell me what exactly Dak Prescott did this season to qualify him as a top 10 QB in the league?
  • You ding Jackson for not playing a full season, Dak didn't either
  • You claim that Hurts isn't worthy of a top 10 ranking, yet he played in a SB

Lawrence is crazy high. He seemed to dink and dunk a lot this year to scrounge up 9 wins. That’s a major improvement projection to put him over Herbert, Allen, Hurts, Rodgers.

I also think Rodgers is too low, he actually had a strong year when taking into account GB’s situation, and nothing indicated he’s not capable of another MVP if he goes somewhere with more talent.

Even If Dak’s interception woes continue next year, you could still make the argument he could slide in at 10 and move Goff to 9; drop Lamar until he can prove to play a full season. Or did Cousins earn that 10th spot?
Screw this guy....we got what we got! Get over it and lets get him some weapons!

I can’t imagine why people have a problem with hertz in the top 10 is better than DAK. Everybody has all of these various opinions which would message boards are about. Dad can get back into the top 10 next year

underwhelming performance in the playoffs the last two years probably has something to do with it.

Every fanbase has those people that find the controversial player that splits the fanbase (Dak is the Cowboys) so they overly support him just to cause a little stir.

If it wasn't Dak it would be somebody else.

Are we talking just this season or evaluating the last 3+ years?

This year Dak misses top 10…body of work Dak makes top 10.

Lol….pure lies. Dak is asked to win games just as much.

again, if you don’t like daks success you like Herbert’s even less. Hypocrisy abounds.
