It's amazing how upset a fan base can get when they are told that they have a top 3 QB.
The fan base gets upset because they think he sucks. The fans don’t care what those who get paid to analyze football think. The fan base thinks they know more about football. They bash every source who covers the NFL if they have anything positive to say about Dak.

I'm more interested in their QB ranking from the postseason.

He choked in the playoffs. He suks . Lol

Most everyone involved in sports think he’s enough despite coming up short in playoffs but some fans on anonymous fan forum:)

Who should we listen to?
On the right team with the right culture and system he might be enough. On the Dallas Cowboys, under the current parameters, I don't think he is the guy who can get it done.

Dak plays great in the regular season except when playing the best teams in the league (ala San Fran, KC)

He puts up big numbers and destroys the NFC east regularly ......

Dak's problem is the playoffs where he seems to always come out flat and makes poor decisions.

It sucks but that is how its been going, and I do not expect it to get better going into his 9th year.
Don't forget also about home games versus away games this past season. Who gives dak the nickname, "the iceman", for the nerves of steel he has? ;)

Dak is saying after every year..... "Will the real defense please stand up???"

Name one year (college or Pro) where his defense actually stood up. Ok 2022. That's it. Even in his incredible college year, his defense folded in the last game otherwise he'd have a chance at the playoffs.
Too bad Dak isn't the real slim shady ;)

Ok so by making that analogy... you're basically saying Dak isn't Top 10 all time at his job like Eminem.

Got it! Such revelatory insight you give on a daily basis. Who says he's Elway? But constantly blasting a Top 3 currently ranked QB and laying it all on his feet is totally stupid, but that about sums up the general intellect of this site.

What is funny is that had PFF had Dak as the 15th best QB in football the very people bashing their ranking would be celebrating them and saying they are the experts who know football.

Since PFF is relevant again. Just going to point out that our offensive line was ranked 6th best in the league.

Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk.
Honestly it is surprising that it is that low. You have two HoF players on the line rated highly and the highest rated LG in football. The fact that they are only 6th seems to suggest some falloff after those 3 (unfortunately 1 of those 3 is gone and the other likely replaced by someone who could not beat him out). The only real problem with the offense was that outside of Lamb, and Ferg as the season went on, no one else was really a consistent weapon. Gallup had a case of the drops and rarely got open. Cooks just was wildly inconsistent and Pollard was clearly not an every down back. None of these were dealbreakers and it is why the offense was again top 5 but it makes sense that the OLine was good again because of who was on it.

Cool...that's what I've been saying all along. Don't worry about another man's money. If Dak get 60 million, more power to him.
That would work when you don't have a salary cap based on COLLECTIVE bargaining. Salaries are public, comes from a pie and he plays a team sport. Not a realistic mindset to champion "whatever Dak wants" and then call yourself a fan of THE TEAM.

THE TEAM not Dak.

THE TEAM not Dak.

Was Dak the 3rd best QB in the playoffs?

That’s par for the course with this fan base. If they agree with a ranking they’ll praise the source and if they disagree they’ll bash them claiming they’re idiots.

Top quarterback how?

I always thought the goal of a QB was to lead his team to victory. Playoff statistics should only be impressive when the team wins. Impressive numbers in a loss are inconsequential.
