That's a reasonable take. Where you and I probably part ways is, your last paragraphThere’s 13 active starting QB’s who got their teams to conference championship games as starting QB’s…
7 of them are Flacco, Rodgers, Wilson, Tannehill, Stafford, Keenum, and Jimmy G. Whether it’s age or rapid decline, none of those are viable options moving forward (maybe could make an argument Stafford)
The other 6 are Mahomes, Allen, Burrow, Goff, Hurts and Purdy.
I think most fans have a wildly distorted view of the QB position in the NFL. At any given time there are maybe 5 human beings walking the earth that you could say “this guy playing QB gives us a great chance of going to the Super Bowl.”
Now I’m not saying Dak is 1 of them, but you also have to be realistic about the alternatives.
I'm in the camp that, if we can't say with definitive certainty after 8 years that Dak IS a guy you can ride that far, then why in the world would we want to restructure him with a massive extension for another 4-5 years?
We know what we've got and if we're not sure at this point that he's the guy then it's time to move on IMO
