Was Dak Ever Considered Elite

[USArmyVet]

Wow, the Dak haters are geared up for his return. They’ll have their Pom pons out on Sunday cheering for Dak to suck. Those of us who knew Rush wasn’t the answer still rooted for him to succeed.

Dak hasn't succeeded either so stop with the Rush hate and instead trying to hope for team success instead of your typical Dak only love.

That’s the funny part right? They are defending a guy who has literally accomplished nothing.

Name 10 better then.

Mahomes
Brady
Rodgers
Allen
Herbert

Burrow
Stafford
Carr
Wilson
Tannehill

Hurts and Daniel Jones both looking viable at present. Jackson hard to compare. Cousins is comparable.

Now, before you go getting your little twizzles in a frenzy, don't forget that you said clearly. It is not clear, not clear at all. Dak fits in the 8-15 range somewhere, that is what is clear.

 

[kskboys]

That poll probably came after last half of the seaso. season when even many of the rabid defenders started jumping ship.

No, it didn't.

See, the point is that the huge majority of fans consider Dak a pretty good QB in the 8-15 range. It's the screamers who scream that he sucks or that he's great. The minority.

Fans thought that Quincy Carter was good because they are sold that by the Cowboys PR department. Look at Dak dispassionately, he’ll put him on another team and ask if anyone is planning their defense to stop Dak Prescott?

 

[mcmvp]

Oh, ok.

So Burrow at 15-16-1 for his career and Herbert at 19-19 (thanks to last night's miracle) should be even further down then. Gotcha.

Outside of Dak fans, nobody picks Dak over those guys to build a team around…32 of 32 GMs take them over Dak

Those guys were picked by bad teams. Their record shouldn’t be the same as Dak (who should’ve been in his prime these last couple years.). He is what he is…middle of the pack. He just gets more attention because of the team he plays for.

 

[kskboys]

Considered top 10 by some, others will scoff at that thought. Ranking a top 10 qb list this year is extremely difficult to do. Brady/Rogers/Wilson all slipping, but at the same time you have guys like Geno Smith, Jimmy G, and Hurts flying up that list. Where Dak falls I wouldnt argue much if someone ranked him anywhere from #7 to #15.

I think to be considered elite you need to be not top 10, but probably top 10%. So the top 3-4 QBs in the league would be elite, and right now that is probably Mahomes/Allen/Jackson....and I see a huge gap between those guys and the rest of the pack right now. Herbert is closing in, but not there yet.

Jackson isn't elite. Burrows and Herbert are far better at this point.

 

[kskboys]

Does it matter? Dak isn't the reason this team hasn't had post season success.

I agree w/ that. 169 yds rushing by SF is the primary culprit.

 

[HungryLion]

Elite no.

Good to very good. Yes.

 

[rnr_honeybadger]

Elite no.

Good to very good. Yes.

Average, very very average

 

[DFWJC]

I've always said that Dak is both better and worse than some here think .
He is certainly not elite, but few are.

 

[Redline360]

Anyone that knows a thing or two about football or has an active brain cell at the bare minimum would never consider Dak elite or close to it. The only ones who think so would be the select few "stat chasing" trolls on this board.

Above average at one point yes. Lately he's looking average . His best year is still 2016

 

[Retro88]

Have you ever played, coached or scouted the QB position? Dak IS average. If you can’t see it, you never will.

Your opinion on Dak's talent has nothing to do with what I said. Also, are you an NFL scout?

 

[HungryLion]

Average, very very average

Wrong. Very very wrong.


Nothing about his performance actually points to “average” in the NFL. But I’ll just take your word for it.

Dude seriously . Who's defending Dak ? What does he need defending for ? Against the likes of you and the rest of you haters? When all of the people who know, State on the record that Dak is the 10 th best option (AT Least) NFL wide ?

You and all the Dak haters have drummed up some dumb ish in your minds. But that's as far as it goes, in your heads. So no we are not defending Dak. We are Cowboys fans and OUR qb needs no defending.

Now if you said refuting BS , GUILTY AS CHARGED

Elite? Might be you lacking brain cells!!!!!

Why isn't it OK w/ you to think that Dak is a pretty good QB?

Lol, the Church of Dak with their one shared brain cel has spoken. Careful now, it sounds like defense to me.

 

[Shane612]

Who are among the group of elite QBs that Dak is not a part of?

Are Russell Wilson and Justin Herbert in that group?

To me it's a short list.
Allen, Mahomes...and I'll say Jackson...I think.
Dak is not even on the radar...

Jackon elite? No.

Look guys this isn't complicated. What I said wasn't relating to one particular event. For example a very large portion of you guys will be sprinting to your keyboards if Dak has a bad game to talk your trash. If Dak has an average game you'll directly compare his level of play vs Cooper and will bring up Dak's salary. If Dak just dominates.....well the defense Dak played was terrible.

Don't play me. One of these things will happen sunday. Very few, if any, posters from the anti dak crowd will give him credit if he lights it up this week.

Why would he need to be given credit for beating a 1-4 team nobody should lose to? Seriously he should beat this team, I’ll praise him when its deserved..Minnesota, Giants, and Eagles those are the ones that count. If he loses to them, we’ll then no praise and he will continue to be capable of beating who he’s suppose to beat. I guarantee I will praise him if he goes 3-0 against the three teams that are actually having winning seasons.
