| 0:00.0 | Sean, let's have a conversation about number four here, the starting quarterback, |
| 0:04.1 | because with all of the time that we've talked about the Cowboys in the first three weeks of the season, |
| 0:10.4 | a majority of it is, I mean, you can kind of pick the segment. |
| 0:14.2 | It's going to be about the defense. |
| 0:15.9 | It's going to be about the pass rush, the secondary, the injuries, Jerry Jones, the Micah Trade. It's all very newsworthy. |
| 0:24.7 | And we don't really talk about Dak Prescott anymore in the season that he's had, where he's |
| 0:30.6 | seriously had to do everything on this team. He has. And I know he hasn't been perfect, but if you actually look at what he's doing, |
| 0:40.5 | and again, most people don't care about analytics, but if you're just looking at adjusted |
| 0:45.2 | EPA, he's up there with the second highest in the NFL. |
| 0:49.8 | Behind Sam Darnold, of all people, but ahead of guys like Danny Dimes, who's doing great |

| 1:10.6 | Dak is good. I've often |
| 1:12.7 | thought DAC is good to very good. I've never thought Dak Prescott is great. And I think the Jerry |
| 1:18.5 | Jones and company, and again, his agent also has a hand in this. I just feel bad that he's the top |
| 1:23.6 | paid player in the NFL because he's not the best player in the NFL. And when you have a |
| 1:27.8 | quarterback that has that pay grade, you expect them amidst injuries, amidst poor defense, whatever, |
| 1:34.0 | to be the tide that lifts all boats. And Dak really, as much as I like the guy, love the guy, |
| 1:39.6 | he's never been that player throughout his career. No, he's never been the best quarterback in the |
| 1:43.9 | NFL. Even though he was never been the best quarterback in the NFL. |
| 1:45.0 | Even though he was runner-up in the MVP a couple years ago, it'd be hard to argue that |
