Ok Dak has a good, not stellar regular season record.

But he has been in a weak div for most of his career. Rodgers also has been in a weak div most of his career, so they both
have more wins than they would if they had been in a better div, like nfc or afc west are now.

Playoff wins / records are more telling because they are playing the best teams for that year, and that is what counts is how a qb does
against the better teams. Even in regular season, how do they do against the teams that wind up in the playoffs that year?

Last year dak lost to all the better teams, and then lost the first playoff game and it wasnt close until the end and then it was a joke
how that game ended.

So to go just by overall records is not accurate way to judge any qb, you have to discount the games against the weaker teams,
and look how they do against the good teams.
problem is nfl doesnt keep those records, they are ignored for the most part.

What a team or qb does in the playoffs is very telling about how good they really are, and that includes the coaches, all players, and qb.

Dak is something like 3rd in regular season wins since he came into the NFL if you use that lame team stat. Brady always had a weak division.
Cowboys lost to most better teams? Well doesnt that seem logical? They lost 5 times and ONLY lost to better teams. Have to give them credit for beating teams they should beat. Did great winning against teams like New England on the road.

Teams win games.

Responsibility flows downhill from the top. A loss alone does not write in stone the limits for an individual making a significant contribution.
