Dak Prescott is an MVP-caliber player because the Cowboys stunk without him

You could make the argument that Dak is an MVP guy because you saw what happened when he went out last year. And the team just stunk. Andy Dalton is probably an average backup. So Dak goes out, Andy comes in, the team just goes to absolute shit.

Dak has historically performed at an MVP-level pace (like early 2020), but the team's record with and without him is a common debate point.

Dak Prescott's new contract is the best deal ever signed for a player

It's actually, like, maybe the best contract that's ever been signed [for a player]... $126 million out of the $160 million is guaranteed. And it's four years.

The contract was widely praised for its structure, effectively allowing Dak to hit free agency again quickly.

Ezekiel Elliott's contract is the Cowboys' biggest mistake, not Dak Prescott's

If you want to point to one thing they [the Cowboys] screwed up, it's probably Ezekiel Elliott's contract, right? Like Dak Prescott, that's the going rate for quarterbacks right now.

Subjective, but Elliott's production declined significantly after his extension, while Dak remained the franchise cornerstone.

Dak Prescott is the 'best very good' quarterback in the NFL

If we're doing tiers, I would say that Dak is a great, very good quarterback. So he's like the best very good quarterback.

This is an inherently subjective ranking of player tiers.

The Bills could have three or four Super Bowls without kickers

You can make the argument that the Buffalo Bills would have like three or four Super Bowls if kickers weren't a thing in football. You can make the argument that the Patriots might not have had the start of that dynasty if it wasn't for kickers.

The claim is a counterfactual and cannot be definitively verified.

Jalen Hurts will answer the Titans by beating them as a passer

I actually think Jalen Hurts is good enough as a quarterback that when somebody dares him to do that, he could say, 'Fuck you, I will beat you as a quarterback.' And then stay in the pocket and throw for like 300 yards and three touchdowns.

Hurts' passing production against Tennessee will determine this prediction.

The Jaguars would be the second-best team in football if they win in Denver

If they win this game in Denver, I would put them maybe second in the power rankings behind the Jets.

The Jaguars' win and their resulting standing in PFT's power rankings are the relevant conditions; the ranking itself is subjective.
