News: Matt Holleran: Dak Ranked 8 (Some good points)

[johneric8]

Prescott was more accurate than ever on deep passes, as his 52.6% adjusted completion rate on deep throws — a career high — ranked third among quarterbacks with at least 30 attempts of 20-plus yards. Prescott’s productivity could have been even better if his weapons didn’t have a season-long case of butterfingers — 36 of Prescott’s passes were dropped in 2019, the most in the NFL.

Wait!!! How much do you want for that again?

That’s got to be 35m at least for 8th right? If Mahomes is getting 40-45?

Blimey.
It pains me to see the names/comparisons of Mahomes and Prescott in the same sentence. Not that you did but the comparison bugs me, old fellow.

I don't care if he is No 1 in every qb category known to man. The only thing that I care about is him winning Super Bowls for the Cowboys. That is the category that is most important to me.

You would have to be a complete moron to think that a QB that is top 5 in every major QB category is the reason this team isnt winning.

Your comment has actually nothing to do with Dak.

Fair rank for Dak

Never blamed Dak for not winning. I don't care about statistical things. The only important stat that I want to see is him being the qb with the most Super Bowl for the Cowboys which I think he can do.

If hes the one to get you where you want to go, the comparison is inevitable.

The numbers on deep accuracy match the eyeball test too, especially in contrast to all the overthrows of wide open guys in 2018. The deep accuracy puts teams in a bind if they crowd the LOS to stop Zeke. I wish we have played Smith more, as his deep speed is better than Gallup's, backing off defenses better on run downs.

bubububububut Dak is average!!!

8-8, just like Zeke?

I have him around there for this season and a career 5-8 guy in the league. More than ok with signing him to 36M because literally in 3 years he would be the 7th highest paid guy.

First two years of that contract won’t have the cap hit at 36M anyways, so we won’t ever really feel that contract weighing us down. By the time it costs money it’ll be in line with his rank in the league.

True, there will be the inevitable freak-out, like with Zeke's contract, but it should end... kind of well, in the end.
Zeke did it the wrong way: He got a really long term contract and now Stevie can play with the money, or get rid of him early.
From reports, Dak wants a shorter contract which makes it difficult to play with the money and then he's planning to re-up with the new CBA.

If you ask me:
Zeke gave up the much friendlier deal for the team, despite the holdout.

This. Dak’s biggest hold up in my opinion is the years as well. The boys don’t care about the number in fact they like having that title I feel. It’s the ability to play with the money down the line that they covet

Can you list his top 15? Names only would be fine

First, Mahomes hasn't signed so you can't answer that. Second, the team has reportedly already made an offer of 35 and it's been rejected.

 

[Direwolf63]

Dak is far from elite, but you can win with Dak.

Anyone who can't see that either doesn't know the game or has an agenda.

OK, who is John Owning?
