And Dak is hitting guys in stride as well as any QB in the league. As soon as Brady calls it a career, I'm not sure there's a better QB in the NFL. It took him all of one rookie year to trump Eli's best career season, but that lucky bastard did inexplicably get two rings

I love me some Dak but...

Mr Rodgers is still a level or two above Dak, right now anyway. Dak doesn't have the physical tools to be on AR's level, but he might have the leadership skills to close that gap

Now this is interesting to me:

Aaron Rodgers is better than Prescott, but he should be- he's one of the most experienced QBs on the planet. However, physically? Maybe I just don't know, but I don't quite follow what you mean.

I mean like that throw in the playoffs, Dak can't make that throw. Will never be able to, but as he matures I think he's a better leader and will have his teams in a position to where that throw is a moot point

I get what he's saying. Dak is a better athlete, but Aaron may have the best arm strength in the league and possibly of all time. He has made some ridiculous throws and put them on the money.

I don't agree that Dak is a better athlete.

Rodgers has probably the best/quickest feet of any QB on then planet to go along with a rocket launcher for an arm with a quicker release than Dak.

I personally believe Dan's physical tools are fairly average but with elite makeup, intelligence, and football IQ.

Brett Favre and Aaron Rodgers are the two most talented QBs I've ever seen.

I wouldn't underestimate Dak's future development. If you put a 2nd year Rodgers against a 2nd year Dak, you'd see just how superior Dak's skill set is at this point.

I know two things about the Cowboys:

1. I've always hated them.

2. I'm now raising a lifelong Cowboy fan in my house - my son loves them because of Dak.

I'm OK with #2 as long as Dak is successful.

You don't develop Rodgers arm and feet, you are born with that or you ain't, 99.99999% aint.

but arm isn't everything, behind Rodgers, Favre, and Cam, Cutler has maybe the best arm I've seen, so there you go.

but I've never saw a rookie command a team and locker room from day 1 the way Dak has. That is something you're also born with or you aren't. Dak has IT in spades, there, he trumps Rodgers

I remember when people used to say Jeff George had the best arm in the league. He did get an NFL check for 13 years, but will never be mentioned even as a good QB.

That OL is absolutely incredible

and QB Moore sucked early on with most of the starting OL still in. The rookie QB Rush needs some more playing time in preseason. If Dak was to miss some playing time during the season Moore doesn't look like he can cut it.

On the TD to Dez, twice Dak hit the hard count at the line and got the LB to show blitz. Cowboys picked it up and Dak found Dez in that one-on-one. The announcers didn't even mention it but it was a veteran move.

Still pre-season for everyone.

As far as the conversation about how Dak compares to Rodgers and the rest... NO, he isn't as good as some in certain areas, but I think he has the potential to be a Montana type QB, after hearing the talk from his fellow players and coaches. A leader...

I remember one of the Niners talking about Montana's attitude at the start of the game winning drive against the Bengals in the Super Bowl. He walks in the huddle and looks over at the stands and says, "There, in the stands, standing near the exit ramp... isn't that John Candy?"

Everyone settled down and the rest is history.

That's the kind of QB I hope Dak becomes.

As last night showed, Dak Prescott is the greatest Quarterback Of All Time

Tom Brady? Pffft....he's a system quarterback. If it wasn't for Bil Belichek, Brady would be working at a fertilizer plant in Michigan, living in a trailer park with his 300 pound wife and their eight kids (5 of whom are either black and hispanic), and pounding Pabsts at the local pub every night bragging about how he backed up Brian Griese on the 1997 Michigan NC team.

If Dak Prescott had been drafted by the Cleveland Browns, THEY'D have gone 13-3 and made the playoffs.

Y'all are comparing a 12+ year NFL 'all pro' QB with a rookie that started the VERY FIRST game he was ever in .. four months out of college.

Rodgers didn't start a SINGLE GAME .. until his FOURTH YEAR in the league.

I saw that too - I was sitting in that end zone. When Dak hit the hard count, the safeties also moved to show man with 1 safety in center field. I said "there's 1-on-1 with Dez." As soon as he got the ball, Dak looked to the right to draw the safety, then turned back left and threw a great ball allowing Dez to make a play.

Certainly a veteran move.

Nobody is saying he doesn't have the potential to be great, but the skill set Rodgers has are only possessed by about 2-3 people out of the 7 billion on this planet. Not an indictment of Dak
