[@jackwilson5152]

Romo was an all pro and one of the best to play even though he had a trash oline and run games ranked in the second half of the league and historically bad defenses. Prescott is just a high school type passing qb, on a team with an oline that gives almost 5 seconds in the pocket (which is insanely amazing), one of the best run games, and the best receiving core and a top 10 defense, in a trash nfc east, in an era where the rules make it very easy to play qb, especially if you have a decent oline.

[@betov.ornelas5482]

The o line Prescott is not what it use to be the running back is not what the he was in his first 2 years...and these receivers ain't as tough as Dez was plus Prescott didn't perform and is restricted running the ball...they needed to trade Elliot when he was in Cabo I called it out here to my friends

Finally someone said it! Dak is definitely overrated. He seems to only dominate the bad teams the Cowboys go up against and loses to the good teams, sometimes he plays good against good teams but most of the time he's mid. Mahomes, Rodgers, Allen, Burrow, Wilson, Herbert, Stafford, Jackson. Dak falls in the same category as Carr, Cousins, Tannehill, Murray, Jimmy G, and Matt Ryan. One can argue Carr over Dak because Carr puts up similar numbers but has a significantly worse offense and is clutch in the 4th quarter. For me its 10A Carr 10B Dak

[@MarianaGarcia-dn4yo]

Herbert hasn’t even touched a playoff game lmao, stafford had to join the rams to have that type of his success, Wilson goes crazy for only the first half of the season and hasn’t done nothing since LOB, Rodgers has consistently failed to win a SB since 2011… yeah those get the pass I guess especially Herbert who’s yet to throw a pass in the playoffs lmao

[@tdot2853]

Idk this guy but he's right to a certain extent. I think when ppl think of a "good" or "great" QBs it comes down to a quarterback ability to improvise when a play doesn't go their way. Dak is a good QB but he's a "scripted QB". Just like 99% of the other QBs. He needs a run game, correct play selection and his defense to do their part. You can't teach improvise ability. Mahomes, Arod, Burrow, Allen etc are born that way.

Dak is good but he has failed many times to win the games that matter, meaning teams with winning a record, including teams he should of beat like the 49ers he still has alot to learn

[@micahkiyimba8641]

The 49ers are no joke tho. Still should've played better anyway

[@Wh1teB0ii369]

@@micahkiyimba8641 Granted, Dak played better overall against the 49'ers than Rodgers did. He just made a mistake at the end of the game and that's all anyone remembers. Dak didn't play great, but he played better than Rodgers...

[@cjrhodes6339]

That san Fran team was just good. Even Aaron Rodgers struggled against them

[@PHOENIXQ2024]

It’s not about the wins and losses. You can be great and lose because your team is not good. It’s his talent. If you watch him play you realize he doesn’t want to throw certain types of passes. He like Baker. Outside the hashes, back shoulder fades, deep posts, post corners, he doesn’t throw these passes.

[@TheRexrapper]

@@PHOENIXQ2024 You haven't watched Dak if you came to that conclusion.

[@tj-23]

He’s not wrong

[@GappyHilmore]

Sign Madd Dog to a max contract. I’m sold

[@KevinJaxonOfficial]

I agree with Mad Dogg. Prescott isn’t consistent. Top 5? No…. Top 15ish? Maybe

[@user-ze6ob3cs7m]

The Qbs that they mentioned + Deshaun Watson and Derek Carr are better than Dak

[@jermaneraynor]

Deshaun Who?

[@ChrisSmith-tu9bu]

Bwa ha ha...you gotta be a Raiders fan... Derek Carr...bwa ha ha

[@aoht06]

What has Carr done to be rated higher than Dak? Man has played in 1 playoff game in 8 years.

[@IsaiahSZN]

@@aoht06 And you seen the teams Carr has to carry. Dak is in a weak division so it’s obvious he should make the playoffs every year. But Dak should be doing way better with the offense he has. I would Guarantee if Carr had the same offense as the cowboys he would be way better than Dak

[@user-ze6ob3cs7m]

@@aoht06 he is in tough division with an average team at best unlike Dak who is in the worst division with great weapons and offensive line

[@musafawundu6718]

This was a great segment. Stephen A Vs Skip Bayless' younger "brother" Mad Dogg Russo. The chemistry between the two is top notch. There's never been the same since Skip went to Fox. Only Marcus Spears comes close to matching it...

[@HeGotGame770]

As a Cowboy fan completely agree ! He is definitely overrated !

[@bigblue1287]

I have been saying this since his rookie year!!!!!!! DAK you are OVER RATED. B4 any one says the Giants SUCK , I'm aware 35 year season ticket holder! I would take DAK over Danial Jones any day of the week!

[@monetarymindset_]

I have no clue who mad dog is. However, two minutes into the show I feel he should stay. These two would be phenomenal over an entire season.

[@jmjaudio]

Coming from a Cowboy fan this is what I've been saying facts are facts numbers don't lie it is what it is

[@DWAYNEGRAY]

Dak record is misleading, he plays in the SORRIEST division in football so those 6 wins a year dont count.

[@blakecallahan1134]

Not really his first three year the division wasn’t that bad

[@foxjubbuline5788]

The NFC North was pretty bad this year just saying

[@est.inthe80s]

Mad Doug need to be a co host on the regular these two arguing is gold

[@antioneiyi4820]

Thank you for finally realizing Dak is over rated

[@tiffanygreen9806]

Agreed he is 👍

[@MrLeo778]

I agree with Mad Dog! The owner, coach & Dak hold them baaaaack 🏈

[@alexgeorge9533]

Russo right again. Mahomes, Burrow, Herbert, Allen, Jackson, Rodgers, Wilson, Stafford are all better. He's in like the 9-12 range with a few other dudes.

[@brooksorlando4881]

I'd put Carr and Kyler barely ahead of Dak too. So I'd have him 11

[@christophermallory3400]

Dak been overrated. When did he get out the 1st round. Season numbers decent, but playoffs numbers stinks 😆

[@jaybino8726]

Ive been saying it for the longest the cowboys will not win a superbowl with Dak Prescott as your quarterback

[@aaronwright8405]

Skip Bayless is back on First Take? I can't be the only one seeing this? 😂😂

[@Dorian-kj8uh]

I was disappointed that nobody noticed it 😂😂😂😭😭

[@deandrebroussard4174]

There’s skip bayless and then there’s play bayless 😂😂

[@ccutthroattv3048]

Dak Prescott feast on trash teams and plays poorly against good teams and in the playoffs, waits until he is getting blown out to pad stats

[@aaronhampton3141]

Dak been Overrated!! Why are they still talking about this????

[@nametbd08]

The only real problem Dak has is, holding on to the ball for too long, which leads to fumbles, and not throwing enough slants. Otherwise he is basically everything you want in a QB. If he can learn to trust his WR on quick slants and outs, he will be a top 5 qb

[@robbbietheim2096]

Dak's accuracy in big games is GOD AWFUL DUDE

[@sethalan3582]

Dak looked good when he had an all-star line that was untouchable. This made him and Zeke look like the best duo that has hit the league since Kurt Warner and Marshall Faulk. Then the injuries took place on the line, and Dak recieved more pressure and Zeke did not have these wide open holes to gash the defense with. If any QB and RB duo had that line they would have looked just as good. This year alone Daks number were inflated due to playing 3 pretty bad teams twice a year with arguably one of the best WR core in the leauge, and the rest of the games were against subpar defenses. At the moment they are stuck with Dak, and I would try to get another competent starter with some draft picks personally. Tony Pollard was clearly more explosive than Zeke, but Jones was adamant about these two player remaining staters juss saying.

[@jasonbari5997]

@@sethalan3582 💯💯

[@robbbietheim2096]

Don't know why everyone is so critical of Dak he came back from that injury to soon played all last year hurt over compensating for that injury which eventually caused the calf strain and threw his accuracy off after the New England game cut Dak a break prior to the injury in New England Dak look great! Cowboys 4 Life

[@thatsportgamer336]

Dak finished 5th in Completion %, 6th- QBR, 6th- Passing TDS, 7th- Total TDS, 8th- Passing Yds, 8th- Winning %… The drastic difference in the coverage/image we hear and the numbers we see for Dak Prescott is consistently surprising…

[@MovieGurus]

Helps when you have the best offense in the nfl and top 5 easiest schedule in the nfl

[@mohamedghliss8841]

He is playing bad teams

[@jackwilson5152]

That's great, but the level of throws Prescott makes is at a level that literally every college qb, even d2 qbs can make. Modern day nfl has rules so ridiculous that it can make extremely terrible qbs put up great stats if they have a great oline, run game and receiving core. Don't just look at the stats look at the context of those stats. Not to mention running up scoreboards vs backups week 16 and week 18.
