I believe Dak has out played Mahomes so far THIS YEAR, but that's not what I said in my post.
We have seen Mahomes play at levels that Dak, and not many QBs in the history of football, has ever played at.
That's why I said that if it comes down to who has the better QB then we're in trouble, because I've not seen Dak play anywhere near the levels that we've seen Mahomes play at before. Mahomes may never reach those levels again and Dak may ascend to those same levels, but we don't know that until we see it. I can only base it off what we've seen in their careers thus far.
Sorry but this makes no sense. Dak was playing lights out before he got hurt last year and has actually played better this year. I think you, like many others, have gotten hypnotized by style points. A touchdown pass is a touchdown pass, whether it's thrown underhanded, left handed with eyes open or closed... it's still just 6 points. While I agree that Dak needs to play at this level for an extended period (two or three seasons) to actually be considered "better," the raw numbers say that over the last 15-16 games he has been better plain and simple. In his last 16 starts Mahomes has thrown 38 TDs and 15 INTs. In HIS last 16 starts Dak has thrown 33 TDs and 9 INTs. Dak has the better TD/INT ratio and the better differential.
You have not seen Dak play at anywhere near the levels we've seen Mahomes play? Really.. Would it surprise you to learn that Dak has at least one career game with a perfect passer rating? Mahomes doesn't have any.. Mahomes does have three career games with a passer rating above 140.. which is outstanding.. Prescott however has had 5 such games..
Mahomes 5 best games passer rating
154.9
144.4
143.2
133.4
132.0
Prescott's 5 best games
158.3 <--- the highest score possible using the formula
148.3
143.3
141.8
141.7
Maybe we should be saying we haven't seen Mahomes play at the level that we've seen from Dak Prescott..
