Who's been more disappointing in the playoffs. Dak or Lamar? (SAS discussion)

[Yobwocs]

Dak couldn't do a quarter of what Lamar does.

You wanna explain that egregious comment?

 

[Cowboys5217]

You know what is funny if they both were free agents I bet more teams would want Dak over Lamar.

Lamar Jackson is younger than Prescott, has won an MVP, has rushed for multiple 1000 yard seasons as a QB, and has at least played in a conference title game.

I'd take that bet any day, because you are dreaming. There are exactly ZERO non-Cowboys franchises that would take Dak over Lamar just on upside still left in their careers alone.

 

[Cowboys5217]

Harbaugh would trade Lamar for Dak straight up w/o hesitation.

No, he wouldn't.

 

[Cowboys5217]

Sure, how many 1000 yard rushing seasons does Dak have? MVP awards? Conference title game appearances?

Whoops!

 

[Cowboys5217]

Verge? No, sorry, he's already there. I mean, don't you listen to sports shows? They talk about it all the time.

He just played in a conference title game, something that Dak has never even come close to, and for which you think Harbaugh would make his team worse to trade for a guy who has done less than the QB he already has.

Here comes Mr. Didactic

Lamar is also injured more. Once his running ability disappears, he might wash out faster. Arms don't get worse into someone's 30s. Without Lamars legs in his 30s, hes gonna have to improve greatly as a passer because hes lacking significant air yards to be in the GOAT conversation some people designate him to be in.

It's not a leap to suggest some teams might take a chance on Dak more. Altho it's hard to say we won't know until both test the market.

Not really gonna argue there, 2-4, 27. Dak 2-5, 30. Lamar gets one more chance with me at least.. Have to give him Dak's measure but yeah. Similar for sure! Fail or get over the hump for Lamar for me at least with the next season.

 

[kskboys]

No, he wouldn't.

Yes, he would. Harby knows that you need a passer to win in the playoffs. Dak is a miles better passer than Lamar. It's not close. Harby would love to have a passer to work w/. Could he fix Dak's playoff struggles? Hard to say.

 

[zrinkill]

Who cares ....... they both suck in the playoffs

BALT has a playoff D. We do not. You are taking a huge liberty in presuming that all things are equal on the two teams.

Lamar has the huge advantage of a D that can make stops.

Wasnt Lamar a free agent? At least restricted and nobody made him an offer.

 

[SwagSurfer]

Lamar because he's a former MVP, 1st round pick, good head coach, best GM in the league. System catered especially for him. He would be eviscerated if he played for the Cowboys. Same for Josh Allen.

 

[thunderpimp91]

The Cowboys failure has been bigger than Baltimores. Baltimore has advanced to a CCG, and they play in the stronger conference.

 

[MountaineerCowboy]

Lamar.

He’s a two time MVP.

Lamar is expected to be great.

Dak is a loser that nobody expects to win anything.

 

[Vtwin]

This is the strangest thread ever.

When you're down to discussing which QB is the biggest loser chances are they're both losers.

Nice!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Cowboys failures appear that way because most of what the modern Cowboys are is just hype with no substance.

 

[kskboys]

Let's have some fun:

Playoffs:

Lamar:

220.7 YPG
6 TDs/6 INTs

Dak:

280.3 YPG
14 TDs/7 INTs

I think there is some truth to that, however 3 consecutive 12 win seasons should come with expectations of at least a couple playoff victories.

 

[Hadenough]

Good points by all involved but I think Lamar has been more disappointing. His team and organization and coach and defense is better. His running game is WAY better.

Also...Dak can get his team across 20 points. Against Rodgers and McVay he did that. Lamar has yet to cross the 17 point threshold in his 4 playoff losses.

But...why really is Josh Allen exempt from this conversation? Dude had 186 yards in his most recent playoff game.

Against the Bengals, he got the ball past midfield 5 times and came away with 10 points - not sure he's been playing much better than either.

Because Josh Allen has stomped the Cowboys all by himself! He is a way better than Trash Prescott.
