My internet search says 4-1 when I search for head to head. "When it comes to head-to-head matchups, Prescott holds a 4-1 record against Cousins." But that is dated February 2022 so with the game this past season, it would go to 5-1.

Are you sure you aren't counting games when one or the other might not have played?
you are right. the two other losses came against Dalton and Rush and this past year against Dak led team.

I stand corrected.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but nobody on this forum is getting paid fir their opinions, are they?


And does he mention Wentz every week in his wrong column? Or is it just what he was wrong about that particular week?
Respectfully, I think the fact that Cowherd is paid to do what he does as irrelevant. Nobody that is paid to talk about sports is being paid to be right 100% of the time. They are paid to maintain a healthy amount of viewers/listeners. As I said before, nobody is right all the time. And most of them don’t admit it when they are wrong… At least he did.

And of course he does not mention Wentz every single week in that segment. But he has mentioned him a few times about being wrong…and about being wrong about him in general, not just about how he think he would perform in a given week.

Respectfully, I’ll disagree. If someone is PAID for their opinion, it is rightfully held to a higher standard. Otherwise, why are you listening to him at all? Since his opinion isn’t worth more than anyone else’s?

And yet, he still manages to give his opinion and criticize Dak? Who has outplayed Wentz in every conceivable way? Does that not occur to you while you waste your time listening to this guy?

Holding somebody to a higher standard is one thing, demanding perfection is quite another. In his business, it can be argued that the higher standard that he is aiming for is, in fact, that same credibility that you say he lacks. You say he has lost it all for being wrong in this one particular case. I believe most others would believe that he maintains it by admitting when he gets something wrong. But we can just agree to disagree.

Still no comments...a statement? Just you saying so?

"LOL"...indeed.

You made it all up now can;t find anything. Because it isn;t there.
You ask me to prove all these statements like I bookmark your stuff. I’m just gonna start bookmarking your posts because you try to take advantage of no search function on this site lol.

It’s funny though you accuse me of making stuff but you constantly claim I say stuff I never said.

Hey man, we were both off. Amazingly we were able to get to facts without a meltdown. Might as well shut down the "Zone"!! :laugh:
Honestly that’s what it always is lol. No matter what side of the Dak opinion you are on….we are either both right or both wrong lol.

Mahomes had 180 passing yards and 3 touchdowns lol…..that was not enough to beat the Eagles….
I don't often say this...but in hindsight I think I agree with you.

The Chiefs DID give up a lot of points, and you don't usually see 35 points and think "great job defense".

But Philly's offense was just as dominant throughout the year in points per game as KC was... and nobody scored as much as Philly in the last few games of the season...so they were a red hot offense.

They scored 35 on KC, and it looked like it migjt be a blowout early...but then KC's defense did what nobody else could do all year: shut down hurts running. Hurts still gashed them thru the air .... but taking away that one thing kept the Chiefs in it, and kept Philly from hanging 50 on them. They forced them into an offense they didn't want to do. Still don't think KC has dominant defensive PLAYERS...but as a unit they played a vital role in that game, maybe more than Mahomes....because if they hadn't done what they did KC woulda lost 50 or 55 to 38.

So there ya go....ur right

I don't really have a point. I'm not even sure why this was brought up by whoever brought it up....I'm just saying I don't think the Chiefs and Pats have/had great rosters on some of their SB teams... they just had elite HOF level QBs.

Those other teams had GREAT rosters feom top to bottom... (but you kind of had to back then, before free agency....when "dynasties" were much more common and you could keep great teams together
of course they had great players. And the best coaches.

I don't "constantly". I did it once and admitted I was mistaken. You guys have very similar verbiage and often....oddly....say exactly the same things in exactly the same way.

So you make this accusation than I'm....ONE...OF...THEM!....then have nothing to show it's true. If I was "constantly" doing ANYTHING....you'd be able to easily give some examples...if nothing else off the top of your head, and we could go from there.

I will just end this complete nonsense and be very clear to you right here.

I have said over and over...Dak is good enough to win. I have said one of his challenges is playing so well....

(did you read that? Read it slow! So you get it)

and then playing SO bad. Maybe it's just a couple plays but they are game, and season destroyers. This makes him look average (ok.... sure maybe better!)...but the large pendulum swing can be a disaster.

If he'd just play more consistently average...we'd be in a better spot.

I never called for his head. Never said he sucks. IS he my favorite player of all time? Nope. I have mixed feelings and made that well known in the poll "are you happy with Dak".

I know this is very advanced and maybe a bit more than you can process. It also makes it difficult for you to carry out your Dak Crusade against me.

SO there it is....read it again. I'm am neither in the Dak Hater group NOR...the Ultra Dak Crusade group. I think many people are that..

Book mark this one.
