Emmitt Smith: “No doubt” Dak is a Super Bowl-caliber QB

[Nav22]

But what would he know, right?

“No doubt," Smith said. "I believe he is [a Super Bowl-caliber QB]. And I think he's getting better. I think he has so much more room to grow and I think he'll get there.

"I think overall, we have a lot of the pieces of the puzzle in place. ...If they can get to that level and develop that chemistry in this timeframe which they have to work with, then I think Dak will only flourish and grow. I think you see that team mature and rally behind their quarterback because he has had some challenges this offseason dealing with the loss of his brother, as well as this pandemic and other things that have crept up. I think he'll be fine.

"I love the kid. No doubt, I think he'll be fine."

Just think if he had a real HC from the jump.

The true could be said for about any number of players that were wasted during the Ginger Era.

But definitely agree here.

Sure would've loved to see it.

 

[Bullflop]

Truth of the matter is that nobody knows if Dak will ever be a Super Bowl QB.

You don't, know, I don't know and neither does Emmitt Smith!

The question, right now, is about what he's worth!

If you have doubts, I'll admit, so do I . . .

I believe they can win Super Bowl with Dak but it gets a lot harder when you make him highest paid player. I’m gonna pull hard for whoever is the QB and wearing the Star. Just would like to see a deal that can benefit the team. I’m definitely not gonna beat my chest and be happy when they overpay him or any other player.

I'm going to take my chances with Emmitt Smith on this one. Appreciate your input though!

 

[ShortRound]

Just waiting for something to get done, it’s like shopping with my wife waiting for this dang Dak drama to get done.

 

[Sheepish]

He's right, but so far Dak has only been as good as the talent around him. Compare that to teams like Seattle, or GB which consistently seem to outperform their talent levels.

Trent Dilfer won a Super Bowl. Jimmy Garoppolo made a Super Bowl.

I, too, believed Emmitt Smith a long time ago, when he said, "opinions are like a-holes -- everybody's got one!"

 

[America's Cowboy]

Just think if he had a real HC from the jump.

The Cowboys with Dak at QB and McCarthy as Head Coach would have reached and won a Super Bowl in 2016, 2018 and quite possibly last year in 2019.

Isn't that true for every team that has a franchise QB?

True. But Emmitt's opinion has a tad bit of credibility behind it.

 

[GenoT]

No QB ever played in the Super Bowl without a SB-caliber team around him.

Winning a SB is a TEAM accomplishment.

Wrong......Wentz carries everything. Even his injuries carried Eagles to Superbowl victories.....Carry sir!! QBs Carry!! CARRY!!

True, but the real question is………..do you sign him? The answer to that question is 100% yes.

Honestly this board sometimes makes me wonder if these people were here in the years before we got lucky with Romo. Ryan leaf Quincy carter. After Troy we couldn’t find a qb to save our lives. Now we have one and people want to not sign him and just go find another one lol. Like it’s that easy

 

[Oz-of-Cowboy-Country]

If Dak can lead us to a Superbowl now is the time. We have about a four year window before we start negotiations again with the likes of Dak, Zeke, Lamb, Diggs, and DLaw. So it maybe a now or never situation.

You need to read his quote again. He said he thinks he's a Super Bowl caliber QB.
