Dak's best win is against a 2018 stacked Saints team. And he only scored 1 TD. Dak is the most overvalued QB I've ever seen. Yes, he was 2nd in MVP voting this past year. But he only beat 1 team with a .500 record and the Eagles had already imploded by that point. Let him play it out and let's see who will give Dak $55+ mil a year.

[@Frank-pc2rs]

in a different situation, you could also say the defense gave up a touchdown and they are to blame for a loss. sometimes a bad play ruins a game at that moment, but it's a team game and all 3 phases need to be good enough to win. dak needs to do better in playoffs, but so do lamar and Kirk and others. herbert, love, Watson, Allen, tua etc

Dak is infuriating, hes acts like hes king if the hill, thus the amount of fans who cant stand him. If he would do interviews and say im not perfect, i need to improve, i let you down in THE PLAYOFFS too much I'm taking a deal for my production and what i produce in the playoffs.... all would be ok, with me at least. Four yesrs another 40 per im fine with keepin him. But noooooo this hack apparently really thinks he should be top paid at 60?????

[@tarontagosh1127]

4:36 he didn't give up 27 points. He didn't give up all of it but he gave up part of it. 2 INTs one of which completely telegraphed to the defense and led to a pick 6. Another INT that left GB on the doorstep. He played poorly in that game, enough to shake Jones' confidence in the player. Then you look over the body of Dak's career and it is just another drop in the bucket of just how bad he is in Big games.

@@scubathesteve Well, considering that only 9% of starting NFL quarterbacks have ever won a Super Bowl, it's a pretty safe bet. But then one could say that about the majority of NFL QB's. And since there are only 3 QB's in NFL history who have ever won a Super Bowl after losing their first you could count out Jalen Hurts, Jared Goff, Joe Burrow and Brock Purdy. And I have more. Dallas has had 13 starting QB's in the Super Bowl era, and only 2 have won a Super Bowl.

[@thebrightsidepodcast301]

Dak is the only QB who has been a starter that long that has 0 signature wins. That Kirk Cousins vs the Niners, that Romo vs the saints, etc… this man just beats up bad teams. And how people ignore that is crazy! The playoffs means Dak would have to flip the script on his entire career

[@christopherchmiel7872]

At this point, Dak is pretty much a known quantity. He’s a very solid QB but seems to lack understanding of situational awareness in high leverage moments. As a 8-9 year vet he shouldn’t be taking sacks in field goal range, shouldn’t be throwing the ball away when you need the clock to continue to run, not throwing the ball away while running out of bounds behind the line of scrimmage. As a fan, I’ve witnessed this way to often. This doesn’t include the costly turnovers in both of the last 2 playoff games. I’m not paying 60 million for this at this point in his career.

These are facts but heres the issue I have. Dak spotted them 14 due to the turnovers, but they lost 48 - 32 so I'm trying to figure out where the remaining 34 points came from? Dak don't play defense last I checked, so this narrative that he failed the team in that playoff game is wild when in reality the entire team failed itself.

[@MrMinionMoney]

@JP-ld6nx i agree on that but dak didn't do ANYTHING til the 4th qtr when it was to late. The defense seemed to be playing not to lose and never made adjustments but I'm to the point where I don't care who's fault it is I'm tired of it ALL. Trade everyone and start over 😅

[@Romanlegion1990]

Las Vegas Raiders: No qb, and might be looking at the 6th best in this draft and a nobody starter. would pay. NY Giants: move on from Jones at the time, weaken a division rival and don't have to spend capital to overdraft McCarthy or the 5th best qb in this draft. Carolina: Young sucks again... impulsive owner, throws money at it. New Orleans: If there is one thing they have proven, its that they are always willing to make the splash and Carr would be able to be gotten out of then.

I think it isn’t just about him. I think this is Jerry’s way of putting the whole team on notice, that he won’t continue to pay for sub optimal results. If he says that to his starting star qb, why wouldn’t it also apply elsewhere to other positions? I think the message is: if you want to remain a Cowboy, you had better produce, because I’m not extending contracts for mediocre results.

[@Gungho73]

Dallas has, since the free agency era started, been happy to write the biggest check to make a point about the organization and its standing. But what is that point nowadays? Is it to accept getting to the playoffs, a winning season? Is it enough to prove, we drafted this guy, therefore we should reward him? As someone who doesn't have any remote love for the Cowboys, when Jerry Jones came into power in my eyes, he made it clear. Everyone is replaceable, including our beloved hall of fame head coach. We will turn over every stone to build this town into a winner once again. I will write the check I need to write if it means hardware at the end of the season. When did the organizational shift occur, where being "all in" by throwing picks at a player like Joey Galloway from Seattle or Williams from Detroit, turned into standing pat in the offseason while your division gets better? When being happy about a title, means your twitter is happy Ware got a title with Denver. Because he wasn't going to get one here, that was clear. I don't want to sound like I dislike Dak Prescott (31 when season begins) he's a better QB then many in this league give credit, but I think this is the right situation for him. Giving him another upper echelon contract at this point accepts you will be good, but not good enough when it matters. It puts the onus on the players around him to succeed, not the player itself. Put the pressure on him, then reward him. Being good is simply not good enough anymore. Being happy to be there is the standard in Dallas and that's, based on the comments I see from Dallas fans each year, never been good enough since the Triplets retired. That disconnect between the ownership and fans has never seemed more real as an outsider in recent memory.

Man! It’s crazy the love of celebrity! We’re a pass rushing team. If we can forgive INTs and pick sixes we can forgive the team guessing on a defensive scheme after not knowing what we have because of the offensive instability against serious teams. But what you can’t do as a QB is fail to respond and set on fire time of possession and after pretending you weren’t going to suck another year. Worst case scenario it would have been a shootout with a loss or at least hold the defense down so they can bow up and finish the game like the defense has done for Dak and Cooper Rush. At least Rush knows how to respond offensively in the flow of the game.

[@Drew-DTM]

@OfficialFamosMuzik This is the problem with these Dak fanboys. It is up to Dak to respond positively in big games. No one wins them all, but the good ones respond in the biggest moments. Dak has shown he can't do it.

@@Drew-DTM right nothing we them Jerry or anybody else says will change that. It has happened and will continue until HE does something about it.

@OfficialFamosMuzik Jerry needs to make the hard decision because if he can get rid of Romo for Dak, then Dak can be removed. Of course, the fans will be upset for a while but bring in good players. Keep winning, and maybe the Cowboys can get a good quarterback. Montana picked in the third round, Brady in the sixth, Staubach went to the Navy first. The fans will be upset for a while, but they will turn against nice guy Dak when he loses to the Packers, the Lions, the Rams, and of course, the 49ers again.

Dak is responsible for 14 of those 27 points and a lot to do with his score being zero. Cant put all that on the defense. They were only down 7 before the turnover implosion

[@Relayer6a]

This is exactly the opposite of what every talking head has said all along. And Dak plays better when he's got something personal on the line.

[@rolandrothchild8889]

Dak's "one and done" has occurred for 3 seasons.

[@kurtwicklund8901]

Dak just has to ask for a pen. Jerry is "all-in" remember?

[@joelmartinez2278]

Dak is gone next year, Cowboys slowly rebuilding. Lamb and Parson's will not sign if they know that the teams future is uncertain. Dak has to prove he can beat teams other than those in the NFC East. His career record against .500 teams is bad.

[@bdgrey]

It's 22-25. Rodgers is 41-45. Most QB's have a losing record against teams over .500 b/c wins are not a QB stat. Wins are a team stat.

@@bdgrey Pick 6's ARE a QB stat...sit the F Down and shut up. Dak needs to GO.

[@bdgrey]

@@davidc2838 Are they though? Like the one that was literally a perfect throw to Noah Brown that he failed to catch and tipped it into the air for a pick 6 vs Jax in OT? That's on Dak? Huh! It's almost like there's nuance to interceptions. Are you sure you shouldn't....what did you say again....Ah! "Sit the f down and shut up"

[@jameswoodson4514]

Rodgers, Manning, and Brady already had Super Bowl win prior to leaving, Dak has none.

[@OfficialFamosMuzik]

“Dak hasn’t played awful” what!?!? As lesser experienced QBs look like the 8year vet and he looks like the AFL is his next stop😅

[@brydesclack9907]

Then demands to be on of the highest paid player in league. Can’t make it up.

[@leroy6483]

I wonder if Jimmy Johnson had something to do with this...Make them all earn it. Meaning the Money....Hmmmmmm

[@jimmygreer2140]

Rich, WE DON'T WANT A DAK EXTENSION!!!! He is what he is and that's a slightly better Kirk Cousins. He's EXCEPTIONAL against weak barely playoff teams. But I can't remember the last time he led the Cowboys to a victory over a LEGIT playoff team. 2016? And back then it was Zeke putting in all the work...and even then got bounced in the playoffs. Diehard Cowboys fan here and for the first time in my life I'm gonna be pulling for losses. The regular season means NOTHING to me anymore. We could go 15-2 and still get bounced in the playoffs. Since the regular season means zilch to me, I might as well hope for losses and a Top 3 pick.

[@RawAutos]

I understand Jerry wanting to force Dak to play out his final year, but to basically have no veteran running game, no extra help in the offensive line, no extra help to stop the run game. Sure, we can get great rookies in the draft… but none of them will be proven. So Jerry’s stacking the deck against Dak and if the Cowboys fall apart everyone will just continue to blame Dak. What a bunch of bullshit.

[@Frank-pc2rs]

Relax they are drafting a running back and offensive lineman and I'm sure they will sign a vet lineman too. Dak has had stacked teams just about his whole career.

[@user-rn9co7jc4t]

can someone provide me a franchise (s) right now or next season that would be willing to pay Dak Prescott AAV of $60M??

[@TheMattTrakker]

Depends what happens in the draft. Maybe Den or Vegas, but yeah...probably not a huge demand.

[@davidc2838]

It only takes ONE...and they'll do it. But Cowboys are done with him unless he magically makes the NFC CHampionship.

[@BarARanchMason]

Is this Jerry’s last year as gm? Maybe he is hinting at his retirement.

[@IanRobinson2yt]

Well the Cowgirls have 25 players with a contract expiry after this coming season, how they think they are replacing those 25 is beyond me. Let's be honest if you are one of those 25 your telling your agent to put out the feelers for a new team now - also doubt any good feelings about giving a Dallas friendly deal from any of them.

[@Cookiesrfood]

The answer is there letting most of those players go. I think Dallas is already thinking about rebuilding and Dak is going to be gone next year.

[@FloridaHockeyFan]

I hope they don’t sign him for stupid money. Let him walk and see if the grass is greener elsewhere. I’d roll the dice with a young qb.

[@davidc2838]

Yep...Let Dak be the NEXT Kirk Cousins. Expensive and no BIG wins.
