Yep. They keep pushing Dak as the success story of his draft class while Jared Goff has been to a SB and to a couple of championship games with 2 teams. But yea, Dak Prescott who struggles against a WC team is the cream of the crop.
Well....different circumstances. Different coaches. Different situations. Sometimes it just breaks your way. Flukey things happen in the playoffs.

Ryan Tannehill beat Tom Brady and MVP Lamar Jackson (one of the greatest QB seasons ever) to get to the championship game while Josh Allen can't beat anybody good in the playoffs.

Jimmy G has the same playoff record as Joe Burrow. But nobody's ranking those 2 side by side.

Evaluations arent just based on postseason. Most people have Dak above Goff.

I don’t care if he’s a rookie or in his 15th season. Dak has never had the goods to win a SB and never will.

...as Dallas homer. The "X" factor is always in play. Logistics are thrown out the window.

It could be this year or next couple. If he can fix or get better handle of things in post season.

That's biggest X factor.

This surprises me a bit but just to be clear, it can be done! Just the odds are not in his favor using numbers from the last 24 years.



I don't get this. Didn't Phil Simms win a Super Bowl with the Giants at exactly age 31?

Championship?

Just getting to an NFCCG should be the goal for this team.
After doing that, THEN you can start talking about winning a championship.

To be honest I think it's the ultimate goal of every NFL coach to start the season.........priorities are
  • Win the division
  • Qualify for Wildcard
  • Win 1st round playoff
  • Win 2nd round = NFCCG

This deserves its own thread so we can make fun of Dak for never reaching the conference Championship like Lamar has.
But....but....Lamar Jackson....these people are beyond pathetic. This is the excuse for this season for the very inept Dak Prescott.

He’s never had the goods around him to win a Super Bowl. We certainly didn’t improve the goods during the offseason unless our draft turns out great.

I'll maintain my habit of keeping my expectations at arm's length. Yet, it's still hard to be happy with our tendency of losing in game one of the playoffs. With that in mind, I might be a bit sad by not reaching the playoffs and glad if we do! Aside from that, I'll be okay, no matter what. ;)

I'd say he is about what Dak is. Blessed to have played with better teams but yea, bout on par with Dak. Average qb, limited skill set, isn't going to win you anything if you expect him to step up.
Except Dak was a MVP candidate and an all pro…Jimmy has never sniffed it lol.

Why should any of us care about this? We care that OUR QB can't do well in the playoffs. None of us gives a flip that Lamar Jackson hasn't fared much better. The only people who do care are the Dak homies struggling to find something to prop him up.

I was right about that too. It's still right there in black and white. Undeniable.

But of course, as always, the point of the post in this thread went right over your head and you wrap yourself in the comfort of deflection and obfuscation to cope.

Another day, another marathon. lol
Even the poster admitted he brought up Allen lol. Confusion is a ***** lol.

The reason Lamar is more disappointing in the playoffs than Dak is because more is expected from Lamar.

He's a two time MVP and consensus top 5 QB.

More is expected from him because he is 10x the player Dak is.

Dak's not as disappointing as Lamar in the medias eyes because they expect Dak to be a loser.
