NFL QB Index, Week 8: Patrick Mahomes vaults back to No. 1; Kirk Cousins closing in on top five

[blueblood70]

Then why did he get outplayed each time the two met?

Last time I checked they never play each other the defenses play the authentic Prescott opens up line and run game then play calling all the above players not getting separation a lot of penalties lots of things that I watch the game definitely wasn’t Nebraska he was the sole reason we’re getting beat it might have to do with their defense in the last game gave up 42 points but the other games did take a look at the one game in the Chi playoff games it was none of offensive line was getting pushed to our side line of scrimmage pretty consistently so they’re not opening of not giving him enough time to throw and then when he does have a little time to they’re not getting open

Let’s go to the games down and you’re gonna find out that that post kind of a 14 penalty was pretty terrible again no one game opens up line was not physical enough to go against their defense pretty much same thing happened in the last game where they gave up 42 points on defense that’s what changed they were close game but now everything went wrong you’re trying to blame the quarterback is the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard by saying when they faced each other rock pretty one that Purdy played better they do not face each other.

Get a game is at two quarterbacks play each other it’s really really ridiculous really it’s like a clown point of you I mean the circus is somewhere else not in here you do realize that Purdy’s team played way better than the Dallas Cowboys game is already in black-and-white already mentioned in my lungs. And do you need to understand with the team looks like team game team Concept comes in the play our team does not shut up and played well against the 49ers

 

[America's Cowboy]

I don't need Janikowski to try to convince me that Maher kicked good against the 49ers. Just like I don't need Marc Buldger to convince me that Dak played good against the 49ers. It's so comical to me that if someone calls out Dak for playing bad you strictly Dak fans get so defensive. I guarantee you I hope for Dak to play good way more then you do. GUARANTEE it, because that probably means our chances of winning sky rocket. I'm just not blind when it comes to his abilities. It's so odd to me. If he played average I'll say he plays average, if he plays great I will be the first one here saying he played great, if he plays like dog crap I'll be the first here to say he played like dog crap. Why does that bother you so much?

Yes, you are blind to his abilities.

 

[Mr_437]

Can someone argue that Hurts shouldn't be #2? Like what QBs are playing better and winning games?

 

[Whirlwin]

Then why did he get outplayed each time the two met?

The team got out played. It’s not an individual sport.

 

[Captain-Crash]

yeah, it's a qb win when the team wins, but when the team loses, it's a team loss.
dak 101

 

[Dallasfann]

Yes, you are blind to his abilities.

That is a completely opinion based.

 

[MountaineerCowboy]

Imagine wanting to toss a top 10 QB in the trash.

Imagine being that ignorant to how NFL football works.

You were more than ready to a couple weeks ago.

Then he doesn't throw 3 INTS against a team with a losing record and now you're back on the Dak wagon heading for that cliff with the rest of em.

 

[tomokawan]

Let me rephrase. Dak has been the biggest weakness on our team the last 2 times we've been eliminated from contention...that's a big problem for me. I don't even hate him and think this team could still possibly win with him, but he can't play as bad as he has in those 2 games.

No he wasn't. 2021 was the defense.

 

[Dallasfann]

No he wasn't. 2021 was the defense.

You're joking. The Cowboys had 5 punts , 1 interception and 1 TD in their first 6 drives in that game. They scored 7 points in the first 3 quarters. There lone 2nd half TD was because of an interception from Anthony Brown..it was 17-23 and the Cowboys stopped the 49ers 2 drives in a row...giving Dak and the offense a chance..they did nothing with those remaining drives.

 

[atlantacowboy]

Any ranking that doesn’t put Mahomes #1 is automatically suspect. He’s the best QB in the NFL and there isn’t a close second….. regardless of numbers.

 

[Nav22]

Wrong.

I still would LOVE an upgrade at QB. Any team that doesn't have the very best QB (Mahomes) should wish that their team had the best QB.

But for the time being, Dak's our guy and he's pretty good. I'm rooting for him like I root for every Cowboys QB.

Makes literally no sense to get rid of a pretty good QB when you don't have an upgrade available.

You can look for an upgrade AND try to win for the time being, it's not an either/or.

You've brought up the Chiefs and Alex Smith/Mahomes before.... but that actually kills your argument.

Did the Chiefs get rid of Smith BEFORE OR AFTER they saw what they had in Mahomes?

And do you need to understand with the team looks like team game team Concept comes in the play our team does not shut up and played well against the 49ers

How about the last two games against each other Dak threw a total of 5 interceptions versus 0 interceptions by Purdy. So yes, Dak did get outplayed by Purdy in the last two games, besides Purdy looking better in each of those games.

Hold up.

You think the Chiefs, after making the playoffs with Smith, decided to trade up and draft Mahomes just for giggles?

You don't do what they did without knowing Smith isn't the guy and you're ready to move on.

There was a transition period which is actually ideal, but they weren't waiting to see what they had in Mahomes. Whether is was Mahomes or someone else the writing was on the wall that Smith was going to be replaced.

Meanwhile, Dallas will just be business as usual with our loser QB.

We traded for a former #3 overall pick, didn't we?

Didn't Jerry say he was considering Jalen Hurts if he fell to us in the draft?

How do you know we won't consider another QB in next year's draft if something makes sense?

Either way, what does that even have to do with Dak? He's our QB RIGHT NOW, why not root for him and the team? If we can upgrade, GREAT. Until that happens, we're riding with 4.

It's hilarious how you act like 12 wins and a playoff spot is utter failure. Worse QBs than Dak have won it all and will continue to win it all.

There's no team besides the 49ers that scares us in the NFC, but maybe you like feeling like a fan of a loser team?

I just hate losing more than you I guess.

To each their own, right?

Oh, and before you bring up all that regular season success know that I don't care about it.

 

[Playmaker3128]

no he won’t be cmc…. But ppl are nuts underestimating the impact Henry would have.

The man is still an absolute unit… whom teams have to bring up extra guys to stop.

When was this team best? When we had Zeke and we ran the ball. Henry changed the entire dynamic of this team.

It means we can beat you in different ways. We can pound the rock play great d… or win the occasional shootout. It makes dak a better bus driver as well.

It is an absolute no brainer to me.

Winning teams recently have gone for it (the rams did it…. The 49ers with cmc… the eagles) why not us?

You also didn't find joy in the playoff win vs the Bucs.

So what's your deal? If we were to SOMEHOW win it all this year, would you go back in time and decide to enjoy the journey?

You weren't happy when we beat the Chargers Monday night?

Losing sucks. Not being able to enjoy the wins sucks even more. Why even be a fan? Sounds like misery for you.

It would only be misery for me if my happiness in life depended on wins by a football team.

I think the people that overly celebrate things like wins over teams with losing records (playoffs last year also) are the real miserable ones.

I expect better. I’m not satisfied with being the laughing stock of the NFL. I’m not in it to take part. I’m in it to take over.

*lip quivers* but who would we get to lose against five hundred or better teams? I'd be scared to take a chance and get a guy who can win nothing like the guy we have now.
*I'm just scared*

I guess we can say the same about Big Mike, "who we going to get to win 12 games for us, I'd hate to go back to the Campo days" *wipes tears from face*
