I take it you haven't watched him play yet?

I realise we tend to overhype some rookies but his is playing really well.. in a crap team. Great footwork, great pocket awareness. Stroud is making all the throws.. full play book and making his whole offence look better. This isn't Dak driving a bus behind the leagues best OLine with Zeke running for 120 every game. Stroud is legit almost a one man offence right now and making it look easy.

Very early call but Stroud is real deal and I would happily have him in that top tier.
Ahhh, read the second sentence of my comment, specifically where I mention he’s been playing great.

I’ve seen quite a few of his games actually, and like I said he’s playing great, but top 3 in the league? I’m going to hold out on the anointing oil until season 2.

See what you saying but he's balling and taking the team on his shoulders. In other words, see if you can name one of his WRs in 5 seconds (LOL).
I drafted Nico Collins in the 11th round of one of my fantasy leagues, that good enough?

Not sure why some of you get so defensive of Dak... who cares where he is in some stupid pyramid that Nick Wright created. At the end of the day W's and L's matter... Dak should keep doing what he is doing, and that is all that matters. As a "hater" I have been very happy with Dakota as of late. I can give a crap about some stupid ranking.

Lot to debate about this pyramid. Doesn't matter though. It will all shake out at the end of the year.
Who’s Nick and why should anyone care what he’s revealing ?
The mountain is set up to generate debate and the panel reviews it prior to the show.
My beef with Wright and his "mountain" - why does he continue to place a college quarterback (Caleb Williams, USC) in his ranking\rating system of NFL quarterbacks. (He put Williams in there last year too.)
Any credibility he wants the audience to place in his creation goes out the window by doing that bunk.

I call a revote.

How is he not Top 3? Burrow thru 2 back-to-back INTs against the Texans and his offense stagnated for 2 and a half quarters before a few late big plays and the Tight End got all the blame for that drop, yet it was Burrow who put them in that position in the first place.

This has been an ongoing thing all year..... their offense didn't do much against Seattle either, just Geno couldn't get the ball in the endzone.

I think Dak should be Top 3.

As long as the team keeps winning is all that counts. The rest will follow.

Dak is in a groove in an offense that appears to fit him, and it should get better. That said, there’s not an NFL coach or gm who would take Dak over those top three right now. Just enjoy that a little of the annoying arguments here have been more quiet. It won’t last.
I d take stroud. Dak had a very good team his rookie year. Certainly a fearsome offense he didn't have to lead, stroud is.
Annoying right?

Nothing?

Wentz looked pretty good for a while there to.
Okay...fair. let's go on what we have..

Are you embarrassed on your Wentz prediction?

Stroud looks good so far. Okay to say that? Or does that hurt dak.?

Chad Ocho has Dak in his Top 5.

Personally, I disagree. Allen is falling fast. We can't keep living in the past. He was elite for 7 or 8 games (Divisional Round KC thru Week 7 of 2022), but for his past 6 games........... we're seeing the same thing again and again... their offense sucks and Allen is doing nothing to elevate them. 6 weeks is enough for me to not live in the past anymore. Is he the main issue? No, but they're 5-5 and they're sinking. Might be irrelevant ala current Green Bay very soon.

And let's see Burrow without his weapons before we make a final decision on him. Dak has not fallen off with 3 different iterations of lead receivers (Dez, Cooper, CD).... let's see if Burrow can maintain after the salary cap starts to take effect.

As for Hurts..... eh. I guess it's a matter of preference. Hurts is good (possibly the best) situationally, but Dak is exceptional on 3rd and long. His downfield vision is superb. He always finds his crossing receiver.

I don't watch enough of Lamar Jackson to have a preference, but I guess East Coasters mostly just watch East Coast games and I think the Northeast Corridor/Great Lakes overwhelmingly prefers Lamar while California thru Texas thru the Southern Belt probably favors Dak just because of who they see on TV more.

you obviously didn't watch Cincinnati last season. Or the time he made the SB getting sacked like 80x in one season. This remark disqualifies your whole post. Joe Burrow is worth 3 Dak Prescott's.

These “rankings” are knee jerk reactions from random dudes who don’t really know anything looking to fill a segment?

It’s a waste of time to even listen to what they say.

What are you talking about?

What was my Wentz prediction? I never had a prediction about him? How on earth would I be embarrassed?

I’ve literally said 3 times now that Stroud is playing good. Also what the hell does any of this have to do with Dak?? I’m just going to go ahead and let you argue with yourself from here on out because you seem to be hallucinating.

Enjoy your night/trip whatever it is you’re doing.

You're really giving Joe credit for Tannehill throwing 3 INTs and Tyler Huntley about to go 24-17 over the Bengals in the 4th quarter while he fumbles at the 1 yard line? And it goes the other way for 100 yards?

I wish we got breaks like that. But Dallas as a whole never gets lucky enough to have a QB play that bad in the playoffs, and a big play like that just hasn't happened to us. It's happened a bunch of times this season (Rams, Patriots, Giants) but I'll wait till we get such a play like that in the playoffs, making a QB's job easier when he doesn't have one additional Touchdown to score - and to have an opposing TD taken off the board.
