You left out Mahomes who makes just a little more APY ($5M) than Prescott ... oh! sorry... we are talking about just QBs who make a ton of money but choke on playoffs.
I find it hard to justify that just because other teams have QBs that haven't reached a Championship game and/or SB the situation with Prescott and the Cowboys is acceptable and OK to make it even bigger.
At one point before 1972 Staubach had zero SB wins (Won his first SB on his
2nd year as starter)
At one point before 1993 Aikman had zero SB wins (Won his first SB on his
4th year as starter)
Hard to tell what the moneys were back then but I doubt either was eating 20% ~ 25 % of the roster salary in their respective years.
After 8 years you have to realize and accept that this QB won't take you a SB (leave alone win one).
But here _________________________ I'll leave a space for someone to comment that X QB didn't win his first SB until year 8+__________ (keep dreaming)
It's been 8 freaking painful years and by the looks of it, it will be at least a total of 12 or more because Jerry will do what Jerry does. It's his money and he can do whatever he wants with it, that's why I stopped going to the games and buying Jerseys.
