Darnold > Prescott

This is a ridiculos argument.

Sam Darnold would have been absolutely destroyed by this forum.

All of the posters who hate Dak would hate Darnold even more.

Dude led the entire league in turnovers.

Had a much, much better team around him.

I’ve realized Dak has not succeeded in the playoffs and I didn’t not support his last extension, but Darnold never even took a team to the playoff until he got on a loaded team on both sides of the ball.

The hypocrisy around here is just sometimes too much to bear.
Not hypocrisy. Everyone here seems to look at NFL quarterbacks through their own lens. Quarterbacks, by virtue of the level of their involvement in scoring points, are the biggest difference makers on their respective teams. We can all agree as important as they are, they are not more important than collectively the other 52 players on the roster.

No one criteria indicates a quarterback’s comparative ability. No one here would suggest Jalen Hurts is a superior quarterback to Prescott or Darnold. He has a .674 winning percentage vs. teams with a winning record. (including playoffs). Obviously it’s the other 52 guys that make a quarterback great.

Yes, they would and they have.

No doubt Dak is a more versatile, experienced and accomplished PASSER than Hurts.

But not under pressure and not when it counts.

So...there's that.
 
Facts and outcomes aren't ridiculous - worthy of ridicule. What's worthy of ridicule are BS hypotheticals and apologetics meant to prop up a PROVEN LOSER AND CHOKER.

Hypocrisy in standards and accountability is the essence of two-faced behavior.

"Dude led the league in turnovers" - Dak Apologizers

Darnold ALSO led the league in wins and LED his team to the SB. OH, he ALSO had NO TURNOVERS in the playoffs. Dak routinely throws 2nd quarter INTs in big games.
Darnold did not lead, he was carried.

Your hatred clouds your football judgement.

Arnold is merely an above average quarterback.

His stats - shoutout to Dak - say otherwise. So do his teammates.

He did pretty much what Hurts did...and what Dak can't do: Play composed winning complementary football.

I get it...in your theoretic world...Dak is already a SB MVP.

I’m not a big fan of Dak, but neither am I someone who is blinded by a narrow, bitter, opinion.

the only measure for success in your eyes is a Super Bowl win.

If Darnold didn’t have it, he would be an afterthought.

He’s on a tremendous team. A team far better than any that we have had in Dallas for thirty years.

If he were a Cowboy, our results would be, at best, the same, but more likely, they would be worse.

"Only measure"? Well, if that's so...Dak is a miserable failure. But we both know that's asking too much of the highest paid player in NFL history ...with soon to be the most expensive supporting cast in history.

Nah...I have the bar very low for the highest paid player in NFL history: Don't choke.

Well, Darnold is about to get $58m. He better repeat, right?

He’ll have a better chance than Dak because he has a much better team and a vastly greater front office.

Are you a front office supporter? Please say you’re not.

Repeat. Hopefully Dak can do it...or half of what Darnold has done. Just once.
 
Seattle built a solid balanced team Dak never has had that. Maybe there were a few years we were close
Once again with this totally false "Dak has never had a team around him" myth.

Dak has had both a league leading rusher and top 10 defense in the SAME SEASON, and couldn't get to a conference championship game. They were 13-3 with the one seed, and he couldn't lead that team to even a single playoff win.

Just once?

Darnolds only other playoff appearance was a wildcard loss where the offense scored 9 points

It’s not like he has some history.

Seattle is going to pay him a ton of money, they have to, but they are never going to get anything better than bus driver out of him.

Hmmm...so NOW it's time to line up performance with pay, huh?

The thing is Darnold EARNED a paycheck. There's a statue to Nick Foles for like 10 games.

To the victor goes the spoils. In your world, Dak just gets the spoils.

I was responding to your comments about pay. You had set aside performance to complain about Dak’s pay. I was simply pointing out that Seattle is about to make the same mistake on a worse QB.

Your complaints about Dak seem very personal. Foles and Darnold are both inferior to Dak.

They just had much better teams

Seem personal? which one of us is focused on the other poster...and which one is focused on football?

Dak is being failed by his team. Too bad he won't take a paycut and thinks he can carry a team. Something has to give, no?

lol...I get a kick out of this bolded part above. When someone needs to start a sentence with this, yeah, he is a big fan of Dak! Posters that do this, just want to think they are fooling others. lmao
