Is Dak Prescott the New Andy Dalton (3 Viewers)

[Saint Jack]

I don’t like either of them but one makes like 40 million a year. Yikes to that.
And I agree with you.

He was functional as a franchise QB pre Burrow. He’s the Cincinnati version of Aaron Brooks

Join us next time when we ask and answer... Who's better, Andy Dalton, or a piece of cardboard?

I agree with that as well. If he’s re-signed I sure hope it’s as a back up, unless we’re tanking.

Looking more and more like it. When you need a premium win not only does he not deliver, he also plays extremely poor

That's a very good one

January of 2023. That's a nine month bump.

30 million a season for mediocre QB surrounded by weapons on the second best team in their division with a great defense but no chance in the postseason. Heck I think you are describing Carr and the Saints.

He puts up good numbers against bad times, when it doesn't count/garbage time. When his team needs him he fails to deliver, especially against good teams. Come playoff time he completely Vanishes.

Only difference I can figure is AD's peak came with the Bengals, whereas Dak's occured with a Blue Blood/ premier NFL franchise. You switch thier places and AD would be on Speak for yourself, Undisputed and those other shows daily and be discussed as an elite QB.

I dont know, but I definitely enjoy watching Dallas implode in primetime

Well there both touted as future HOF’ers

It's full on meltdown mode in DFW.

Glorious day indeed.

 

[DeuceMcAllisterFan]

They have Trey Lance to fall back on.

They have Trey Lance to fall back on.

And Rush. But they won't bench Dak anytime soon.

Dalton was healthier than Dak in the first seven seasons and Dalton played in and started 109 games to Dak's 97. Dalton has 12 more games than Prescott did through their first seven season, and yet...

Dalton passed for just 591 more yards. 25,534 vs 24,943.

Dalton passed for just 1 more touchdown. 167 vs 166.

Dalton passed for 28 more interceptions . 93 vs 65.

Dalton averaged 0.85 interceptions per game to Dak's 0.67.

Dalton's 62.45 completion percentage is less than Dak's 66.64 completion percentage.

Dalton has 20 game winning drives to Dak's 19 game winning drives.

Dalton averaged 32.62 passing attempts per game to Dak's 33.84 passing attempts per game.

The only real edge you can give Dalton is his health, which is important.

Dak is grossly overrated, but statistically he is clearly a step up from Dalton.

Dalton's not even a game manager anymore, because game managers win when the defense holds the other team to ten points.

Good statistical breakdown. My gut reaction even before seeing them is that Dak is/was a hair better than Dalton. Having said that, Dak's career started about 5 years after Dalton's did, and as much as the cowpies routinely underwhelm, they have been a decidedly better organization than the Bengals have been until the last few years under Burrow.

At the end of the day, it's not a horrible comparison until Dak does something in the postseason.
