WRONG his marlkeyt lioek many QBs says and its fact, he got that money from at least four teams bidding for his services next year as a free agent... You must be out of touch with how the quarterback market works
This is where I'm going to stop you because we're talking about two different things. Leverage determines your value. It doesn't decide your talent.

Examples. One woman has 10 suitors. Does that mean she's beautiful? Maybe. But it could also mean she's the only girl, and not that beautiful.

You walk out of a desert dying of thirst. I have a bottle of water for you for 100 bucks. Does that make the water worth 100 bucks? Does that make the girl beautiful? No on both counts. That's Dak.

Really well then how about some of his best years rookie of the year then right before you you say he didn't earn his money he broke his ankle he actually shows up for training camp he shows up for practice and he actually played on a franchise tag versus holding out has 37 touchdowns and 10 interceptions in 2021 last year's second team all pro 2nd and MVP voting and somehow you don't think he like many others got with the NFL says is his market that is not mixing things up he's shown he has talent and by the way you all keep doing this let me let me give you a little what I gave the other guy...

So which is it you have guys like Brock Purdy Jared Goff Matthew Stafford jalen hurts on teams that are providing this all in scenario they go be aggressive they build a team and they make sure they have everything they need to at least make a good run in the playoffs if they get their healthy and avoid attrition but is that the narrative around here because you're trying to tell me with the nonsense with budget free agency mistakes made in the draft and the general nature and culture of this team because of Jerry Jones and the Jones family not giving enough in the offseason to build a playoff team and yet Prescott's being blamed for most of all our problems now he got paid because of his talent he may not be elite but again I don't think anybody's elite except for Patrick mahomes and there's a question about that and right now the best quarterback in the league this year right now and that's how we should judge it who's probably surprisingly playing the best is Josh Allen he has like no turnovers this is the first time in his career that's happened..

This is a year to year league but I can tell you right now there aren't many players in this league that can be considered elite and that deserve their money that goes for all of sports baseball basketball dudes are getting excessive amounts of money and they're not bringing championships on a regular basis they get paid with their market is p....ost years that's why he got his money.

Y'all can't be hypocrites you can't have it both ways I mean we sit here and watch this team year in and year out the same things are said every offseason right now Jerry Jones is being blamed for the culture the distractions the lack of aggressiveness and free agency not doing enough by the trade deadline and yet we're gonna go back to talking about individual players on a team that's part of the Ultimate Team game in the NFL and we're gonna start talking about his money no he's not overrated the market is bloated he got his market value but the man has had enough years where you could say there's a reason he got paid and he deserved to get paid 'cause eventually he would've got paid by somebody that's not extortion when you have five other teams willing to pay him I know this 'cause I seen the NFL if he would have hit the market he would've got the money no extortion needed other people see his value just because you don't doesn't mean you're correct that's an opinion but in his job in his career what he does for a living he's considered one of the top at his game and he would have got his money period end of story has nothing to do with extortion it literally is part of the NFL culture quarterbacks get paid and it's bloated more even though other positions very similar....​
I mean Trayvon diggs isn't exactly earning his money this year dude's getting lit up he's not willing to tackle this is just part of sports you get paid by the larger sample size not using the worst year or the best year but they look at your whole entire situation and if you're considered a top five in your field you're getting paid that way go give me the list of the top 10 quarterbacks in this league show me the money and I'm talking about with money the top ten money quarterbacks and then we can discuss what they have or have not done in the NFL or what they probably won't do to earn that money because most of them are in extreme failure outside of what there's only one quarterback in this league that won on his rookie deal I wish the team was very loaded with talent and then he's now won a Super Bowl after he's made 55,000,000 a year and now they've taken a lot of talent around him and he has a big drop off but that's Patrick mahomes ,he's the anomaly he's the only you can go look at if the Super bowl championships and consistency in getting the big games and playing well in big games there's just one that's it..
You all are trying to separate Prescott from the other players who are doing the same thing they literally or worse I mean at least this guy's never been part of a losing season and he's been to the playoffs 5 out of last eight seasons or at least the Cowboys have but he's been in the playoffs and won two division titles in the last three years what are we blaming the off seasons in the front office like I see most of the time or now we're trying to be hypocrites and blame the quarterback for what his market value was and what he happened to receive no he got what he deserved because that's what Jerry was willing to pay but I can tell you there's at least five other teams also willing to do it that means that's his market that's not extortion that doesn't lower his value because you can't fit Patrick mahomes narrative into this because he's the only quarterback who's gotten paid who's actually earned it before and after that's it one player at that position who's done that...
The rest of them I already mentioned they're on teams that went in with the all in mentality gave those players a better situation at quarterback and yet they're still not winning Super Bowls and they got paid big I don't care what you think you see with your eyes that's called the market value I don't know what you're trying to argue here he didn't extort anything he's considered one of the top quarterbacks in the league whether you wanna put him in the top five or the top ten depending on the year of course right now you wanna jump all over him because of the way the team this year but again did we not say this was an historically bad offseason and everybody saw it coming Jerry did absolutely nothing to improve the team and then you add in all the injuries isn't that the narrative but now we're trying to put Prescott on an island and all professional sports as if he's the only one that got his market money that's not winning championships IE is not paying dividends in the fans eyes that's just utter nonsense, that's just utter nonsense..

Well, why didn't I think of that? Wait, what did you say? Give me about two hours to read this crap and I'll get back to you.
