Is Dak elite?

[Aerolithe_Lion]

Team sport. Very dependent on others to do their job.

Even then, there are still elite players. But some people think that every year the top 5 guys are the elite guys; that people can “default” into being elite. Thats such a silly way to look at it

Put me on ignore then, or go away. One of the 2.

Or, and I'm guessing he'll pick this option, he can always just continue to read your contributions and provide a different perspective for people to consider....

GM Jethro thinks he is elite. At least that was his annual evaluations say from the Owner.

If he gave us a Super Bowl win. That would make easier to talk about elite.
I can't think of an "Elite" QB without a SB win.

Arguable imo. He always come thru in the regular season.

Pittsburgh is one of the best defenses in the league, particularly in the red zone. Cousins (500 yards last week) and Herbert couldn't move the ball on them.

And he had 2/3 of a team, including injuries to Cooks, and while the defense played well...it's a challenge to win a game without Parsons and Lawrence. I bet no general football fan predicted us to win without our top 2 defensive players. I'm seeing QBs this year lose a lot when they had injuries...like Stafford, Purdy, etc.

I'd imagine he'd be Top 6 in Mahomes Mountain this week.

That last drive was awesome.... great throw, put it where he trust Tolbert could catch it, and Tolbert caught it.

Just win baby

Dak looks elite at times, others he lets you down with an untimely turnover. Today was an example of both sides in 1 game.

When the game was on the line today he came through which is what you want to see from your QB.

Dak is not Staubach in crunch time but sunday last play of game kicked up his credibility rating

 

[GORICO]

He is to inconsistent to be elite, IMO. Very good, but not elite.

nice set

Elite QB's>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Dak

agree

Too bad you can't comprehend that.

Who's on your list of ELITE QBs without a Super Bowl win. Don't Google it. You sound pretty confident. You should already have a list.

 

[Gangsta Spanksta]

Eli had a consistent running game and a defense that played great in the playoffs. He also made some huge plays in critical moments. He definitely wouldn’t have won those Super Bowls with the Cowboys. QB wasn’t our problem then and it isn’t now.

I don't know if he would've been as Clutch on the Cowboys either. The Country Club locker room culture is hard to overcome.

I will start with Dan Marino.

That's the only evaluation that matters....but, some won't let it be.

No it's actually not.

as long as garbage is posted, I will make sure all know how badly it smells

I will agree with that one. Then Jim Kelly

yep, just because they are the top rated for a few weeks or even a season....doesn't auto bid you into elite status. As I said earlier, you could have a situation there isnt ANY elite at the moment.

And you look at Mahomes who does not have the stats but has all the rings and the big plays that got them

 

[SteveTheCowboy]

he is full of it! (garbage).

Instead of rethinking his position he tells ya to get lost. Lack of wisdom there!

(Yes I know we're all pretty stubborn, but we don't have to be disrespectfully uncivil to boot.)

Definitely and interesting example. I think the thing that separates him from most other QBs is he makes those couple plays like WTH? the extend drives and scores TDs. I wonder if there is some metric about that.
