I give you Dak Prescott - the NFL's highest rated passer

[CowboyRoy]

Zeke is an asset. But definitely an overpaid asset.

He is an underperforming asset which is a liability.

 

[Diehardblues]

Im not the one that cant admit he had a bad game. You must be in love with him. Do you have a crush?

Dak has a terrible game last week. See, not so tough.

Zeke has had 3 stinkers in a row.

Yea, good thing we aren’t as reliable on Elliotts impact and production on the ground anymore to win.

He is an underperforming asset which is a liability.

Yea, that’s assuming we’d spend the additional money well we’re over paying him . But I hear ya. We have a couple others on this team we could say that. We got rid of one of them already in Smith. Van Esch and Dlaw could be next . Totally under performing for their salaries.

Paying a RB big money is a losing prop in todays NFL...just look at Henry, to payoff well you almost have to run them until they are hurt. If your soley looking at what this offense is asking Zeke to do..he is doing it at a high level. Contract was bad but not because its Zeke..because its the RB position ...

Well remember QBR tries to factor in degree of difficulty as well as tries to grade things like "poor decisions," "inaccurate throws" and what not. Obviously a lot of that sort of thing is subjective. They might see a throw that is only an inch away from being picked off but ends up complete because the DB couldn't reach it as a poor decision or a bad throw where a guy just "got lucky." Someone else looking at the same play might call it "a dime." That's why you really gotta watch the games and make up your own mind. There is no "number" that is ever going to tell the whole story.

That is the eye test. Which gets bashed by state where's. But....it's how we watch and process ....and enjoy....the game. Cantbe afraid of what your eyes say.

The Super Bowl MVP is all that matters.

..more like just an appearance would be fine.

 

[Heath]

Proud to say I have never wavered on my very high support of Dak from Day 1. Dude was and still is a STUD.

 

[johneric8]

Dak is playing out of his mind. Next stop, the Elite label.

You're a bit late with the program I see... This label has already been attached in most NFL circles..

Everything besides that ring at the end of the year is a participation trophy.

You just can’t enjoy something good can you?

Throwing out the Denver game (rust and line issues)...I can't deny that Prescott is definitely on a new level this year. Definitely good enough to reach a Super Bowl with the weapons he has. He leads in 2 of 3 metrics...DVOA, VOA and DYAR (2nd to Brady)...even if only ninth in QBR. At this point I'd say that anything less than a title game appearance would be an egregious waste of what looks (so far) like a special season (especially as it pertains to turnovers). There is still the question of the defense, which is better protected when Prescott is balling. The defense is not a unit that will "carry" the team, especially with DLaw and Gregory on the shelf. If the offense can put up a buck-fifty in the running game and 250 - 300 yds on the passing side then the Cowboys are a threat to beat any team in the league right now. It then becomes a matter of the turnover differential. IIRC the Cowboys are avg 31.6 ppg...which leads the NFL.

It's a very good thing that Gallup returns to the fold because the offense is going to need to ball until the QB hounds get healthy.

 

[Romo_To_Dez]

Is this good?!

 

[MountaineerCowboy]

You just can’t enjoy something good can you?

What's good about not reaching the ultimate goal?

 

[CowboyFrog]

Pot calling the kettle back?

Calling it back to what?

 

[Reality]

Stop the insults and attacks!

Debate all you want but there is no need for insults!

9th in ESPN's infamous "QBR"

That stat confuses me at times.

The fumbles near the goal line hurt him a ton there.

Plus the Denver game, obviously.

 

[Jipper]

You're right, so maybe don't chime in and say my perspective and goals as a fan is a "garbage statement" if you don't agree.

That's not cool.

It's still a garbage statement and you were talking about players perspectives not fans perspectives, and I'll chime in whereever I like tough guy, but hey keep it up

Playing at an elite level and being elite are not necessarily the same thing. There is a longevity threshold to cross to truly be elite.

My program has a pre-requisite and more pelts than yours.

That stat confuses me at times.

The fumbles and “failed” QB sneaks really hurts his QBR

 

[phildadon86]

Is this good?!

Nope. Garbage time stats. According to a certain poster lol. 7 wins and his stats are garbage time. Makes total sense right?

Well I hope you weren't one of those who had Josh Allen among the elite after his basically one year stint among the league's elite passers.
