Chris 'Mad Dog' Russo: Dak Prescott is OVERRATED‼️ | First Take 

NY radio legend

@@FSamuels20 yeah legend in his own mind in my next life I want to be a commentator what other profession can you consistently make a fool out of yourself and still make a ton of money? Watching these to blows go at it is priceless I meet smarter people at Buffalo wild wings all the time

I’m from New York and people saying that this is their first time hearing mad dog is absurd to me.

@@justinnicklas4712 I'm from georgia almost 30 yet I grew up my dad listened to them regularly. It's crazy ppl don't know who he is. We don't have sports media as we know it today if not for him and Mike.

Mas dog is a legend in newyork sports talk radio

Yessss I'm loving this!!!

@JD dudes a legend in sports radio my friend

I liked him on MLB Network

Yeah, he got a skip to save his show , and molly is shutting up

the marquis

Kirk Cousins is obviously 🙄 far better QB than that 🤡 Prescott , if Kirk Cousins plays for Cowboys with last years team , Cowboys would have gone to the NFC championship atleast

@@ineverfold1506 Nah, they're both trash QBs on trash teams with trash fanbases

@@ineverfold1506 Kevin O Connell is not fixing YOU LIKE THAT

Cousins and Dak are about the same level to be fair.

@@adampincente209 last year Vikings lost 6-7 games by 1 possession with some of the worst receivers/ no running game / no defense , all cowboy losses are blowouts 😂

He missed "pause" 🤣🤣

The other dude even leaned back a bit on that one 😂😂😂

That’s what she said

@Erick is that a joke? hes absolutely better than all of them. and are you talking about now or all time? matt ryan is a non factor now. matt stafford didnt go from irrelevant to goat overnight. the only thing that changed overnight is his team. you dont think dak would thrive if he went to a superteam like the rams where they have bought all the best players at every position?

@@Beamin439 he def not better than stafford

@@Beamin439 thank you!!! Erick is a joke for saying that 😂. I mean Derrick carr? Are you kidding me? Wth @ least Matt Ryan been better over a career & went to a Super Bowl & won an mvp… but Derrick car? Cuz you don’t ever need to talk about football no more 😂🙏🏽…& Matt Stafford has never even made an all pro team won an mvp didn’t win a playoff game for 13 years!!!!! & only made 1 pro bowl 😂…like cmon now dak is better than all 3 stop it.

@Erick haha I’m a Cowboy fan. We’ll actually used to be. But I know Dak is that not good. He’s part of the problem

@Erick 100% my brother! They were. Everybody after Parcells and Sean Payton left have been the problem. They through away Romos career just like Barry Switzer threw away Aikmans career. Obviously Jerry Jones a huge part of both of those scenarios! 🤦🏻‍♂️

Really? So Stephen don’t clown dak every chance he gets? He wasn’t called a stat patter by Shannon? Skip did not say he wanted dak to earn peanuts ?

It's clown talk to say he's not too 10 though.

@@TheRexrapper all the qbs he named + deshaun watson is better than dak

@@veganhippie8498 Based on what?

@@TheRexrapper deshaun has a stronger arm , more accurate, is a much better athlete can read coverage better, can beat man coverage, is better under pressure & is better at extending plays. Deshaun also plays well/beats good teams and good defenses. Dak rarely beats good teams/defenses. Cowboys fans always tend to point Dak being injured when he doesn’t perform well, but I never hear about injuries when he throws for 6 touchdowns against the Washington Covids and Philly Backups

Not this year

@@blakecallahan1134exactly, they don't run the ball no more, the offensive line is old now and since dak has to throw alot now he can't win.

@@PrettyboyPa 12 wins this year?! Name one QB that’s been really successful in the playoffs with a bad run game, a receiving core that can’t get open fast enough for the o line, and an inconsistent defense??!

@@zh2860 cowboys defense lead league in takeaways, 3rd ranked receiving core in the league, and a top 10 running back who lead the league in rushing multiple times and offensive line. Stop with the excuses.

@@PrettyboyPa first of all who’s the top 10 running back?? If you’re talking about Zeke then you’re sadly mistaken. Second of all, even if it is a top 3 receiving core, you have to give props to the QB. Third of all the cowboys might of gotten away with being an “amazing defensive unit” until a team like the 49ers come around and completely expose the aggressive play in coverage and really bad run defense. It might sound like lots of excuses, and I understand Dak didn’t play great in the 49ers game, but if all of that is going against him what is he gonna do.

On god

Romo was a good player but did have his flaws, now is Dak's turn!

Romo was an all pro and one of the best to play even though he had a trash oline and run games ranked in the second half of the league and historically bad defenses. Prescott is just a high school type passing qb, on a team with an oline that gives almost 5 seconds in the pocket (which is insanely amazing), one of the best run games, and the best receiving core and a top 10 defense, in a trash nfc east, in an era where the rules make it very easy to play qb, especially if you have a decent oline.

The o line Prescott is not what it use to be the running back is not what the he was in his first 2 years...and these receivers ain't as tough as Dez was plus Prescott didn't perform and is restricted running the ball...they needed to trade Elliot when he was in Cabo I called it out here to my friends

facts

He doesn't throw well enough yet to do that.

those are the numbers dak has in this offense

Andy dalton had that offense. What did he do exactly?

@@rmj0711 did you just try to compare Andy Dalton to Dak and Lamar?

You’re a moron if you think he sucks. I will agree that he’s not a top 10 quarterback but he’s not a bottom 10 either

​@@harbingerofd00mticktock If he's not a top 10 quarterback in this league, that means he sucks and not capable of winning a playoff game.

@@harbingerofd00mticktock You sound like the moron. You can defend him all you want but it doesn't speak the truth he is definitely not top 10, can't beat elite teams, and is definitely not worth $40 million. So the bottom line is Dsk is definitely overrated and overpaid. Maybe you should do some research and actually pay more attention to games and stats before you call anyone a moron.

Huh nfc east defense is better than most and every quarterback got weak divisions but we sent two teams to playoffs in a loaded nfc and got Super Bowls all through the division lol Brady lost 3 Super Bowls to the nfc east 😂😂😂

Seriously? Mad Dog an OG

Other way around this dude was the blueprint of every sports debate show

I mean green Bay lost to the 49ers so that point is pretty bad

@@snappy619 dallas has a lot more talent than greenbay not even close so actually was a good point rodgers doesn’t have a lot of help dak has to much help

@@dakcantreadcoverage5780 Actually that is wrong when Dak when against teams in the beginning of the year before the injury, Dak was playing like a MVP caliber quarterback. The injury that he sustained in week 7 held him back, also doesn't Devante have weapons like Davante, and Lazard?

@@snappy619 dak has never had help and rodgers has on e hood reciever dak has three threes a big difference

Stafford? If mahomes. Allen or burrows was on the team do they lose?

Not if mad dog out debates him. SAS wont have it.

they are not one of the best in the league stop man. Most penalized and injury prone included.

The browns have talent they just have a qb problem

@@KennethOnyema It's never Trash Prescott's fault right??🤣🤣 When he wins it's Because he carried his team, Yet when he loses its because his Oline,Zeke,Pollard,Cooper,Gallup,CeeDee,Schultz,Jarwin,Zurlein,Mike McCarthy,Dan Quinn and the Defense all failed him🤣🤣🤡🤡🤦🤦

A lot of people think the Cowboys line has regressed. Well, when you have an offensive coordinator who passes 60 time a game in the shotgun formation, any offensive line will struggle. Give the Cowboys Quinton Nelson and that POS Trent Williams, with Kellen Moore, the unit still regresses. Fire Kellen, maybe move Connor Williams to tackle and move Collins to guard and that’s it, still an elite line IMO!!!

@@SinaSoh Agreed People hype Kellen Moore up so much but those same People don't understand that Offense has always been good even with Romo at QB... I personally believe a lot of Players especially Zeke and the Oline only regressed because of Kellen Moore

Mad Dog has forgotten more than Skip has ever understood about sports. There is definitely a resemblance though.

He’s got the same confidence as Skip Bayless but his arguments are less based on emotion and more based on facts and he’s better at controlling his bias.

Skip is a nobody compared to Mad dog

Well said. DBut and other DBs on Pat McAfees podcast over the years have dunked on him for that exact inability to adapt when it goes sideways. I personally have him as my #12 qb going into next year

Chris Russo was co hosts with Mike Francesca for a long time on WFAN and they completely revolutionized sports media together by being more confrontational and authentic with each other instead of just presenting news

NYC Radio legend. Shows like this don't exist if not for his show with Mike Francesa

Even the rookie in NY Zach Wilson can go off script. Once he gets a solid O line and weapons to throw to it's on!

u put burrow among those qbs? lol

Wrong but okay

McCarthy sucks too

Jerry Jones brought 3 SBs.

@@bigbromcgee7118 ur a clown if you think Jerry isn’t a problem

@@bigbromcgee7118 30 years ago

Jerry has to get some. It doesn't care about winning a trophy; all he cares about is Money. But Dak is 90% of the problem. Dak can't hit a parked 18-wheeler.

Herbert hasn’t even touched a playoff game lmao, stafford had to join the rams to have that type of his success, Wilson goes crazy for only the first half of the season and hasn’t done nothing since LOB, Rodgers has consistently failed to win a SB since 2011… yeah those get the pass I guess especially Herbert who’s yet to throw a pass in the playoffs lmao

@@MarianaGarcia-dn4yo was it Herbert’s fault that he had one of the worst run defenses in the league? Or an incompetent coach that makes analytical decisions that costs him games? Doesn’t matter if he hasn’t made the playoffs, a blind person can see how much better of a QB Herbert is than Dak. Put Herbert on the Cowboys, and he gets you to at least the NFC championship game. Put Dak on the chargers and they still don’t make the playoffs.

@@shockwavez3208 exactly

@@shockwavez3208 Herbert best qb in the league next season

@@shockwavez3208 Dak beat Herbert this year beat Wilson in the playoffs Burrow has a losing all time record got saved by Ja Mar Chase and played like dogshit and got carried in the playoffs, Allen lost to the jaguars and played mid all year even Mahomes was mid this year

Comebacks and hook routes is kellen moore system lol

@@Optic_texas and it was designed that way to be "Dak friendly". Noticed we purged all of Romo's recievers because of it too

@@Soccercrazyigboman no it was designed like that because kellen a system over players guy. Defenses figured out dallas wrs go to the same spots everytime and can't run the ball

@@Soccercrazyigboman kellen the opposite of dak friendly he did everything to make dak job harder lol not running the ball defenses just sit at top take away ceedee and coop.

And Romo didn’t feast on bad teams? How many good teams did HE beat?

The 49ers are no joke tho. Still should've played better anyway

@@micahkiyimba8641 Granted, Dak played better overall against the 49'ers than Rodgers did. He just made a mistake at the end of the game and that's all anyone remembers. Dak didn't play great, but he played better than Rodgers...

That san Fran team was just good. Even Aaron Rodgers struggled against them

It’s not about the wins and losses. You can be great and lose because your team is not good. It’s his talent. If you watch him play you realize he doesn’t want to throw certain types of passes. He like Baker. Outside the hashes, back shoulder fades, deep posts, post corners, he doesn’t throw these passes.

@@PHOENIXQ2024 You haven't watched Dak if you came to that conclusion.

I was disappointed that nobody noticed it 😂😂😂😭😭

He’s one of em

@@jasonbari5997 Far down the list.

@TheRexrapper you couldn’t be so wrong. The guy’s accuracy stinks at time.

@@franciscoguzman1065 He needs to be more consistent with his mechanics. People bring up all this other nonsense with Dak but his mechanics are the number 1 reason he goes through slumps. If that ever becomes natural to him, he will be a top flight QB. If not then Dak needs to start running more to make up for it. Something he didn't do nearly enough last year.

Dak is an average Qb at best with all the tools around him, he has football limitations, he can't read defenses or throw the football accurately, HE DOESN'T HAVE IT, as diehard cowboys fan, I think it's time to look for qb for the future, he has not improved in the last 6 years, what do you expect from 4th around, I think the cowboys should move on from Dak

He didn’t he ask why mad dog didn’t

Helps when you have the best offense in the nfl and top 5 easiest schedule in the nfl

He is playing bad teams

That's great, but the level of throws Prescott makes is at a level that literally every college qb, even d2 qbs can make. Modern day nfl has rules so ridiculous that it can make extremely terrible qbs put up great stats if they have a great oline, run game and receiving core. Don't just look at the stats look at the context of those stats. Not to mention running up scoreboards vs backups week 16 and week 18.

facts solid list and order

Until Derek Carr and Justin Herbert win more than 1 play-off game. They shouldn't be ranked higher than Dak Prescott.

Murray, Herbert and Carr are ridiculous.

Naw cuz u still got Watson

A couple of seasons ended in referees being bad. Team has been through a lot: losing coaches for full seasons and just being the saints lol. I also say this biased and butthurt as a saints fan 😂

I wouldn't say that's true because he did make it to three NFC championship games. 2006 against the Bears, 2009 against Vikings and 2019 against the Rams where they got screwed over. The dude has alot of playoff wind but had bad gameplans against those teams.

He has the intangibles, but he doesn't have the talent

@@karabomafa5609 Intangibles are things you can’t touch or see, he has the physical talent but he can’t read defenses well and he can’t make a decision with the ball fast enough.

Agree

Let’s not forget a good coaching staff who knows how to put that talent to use

@@rmj0711 Let's also not forget how a qb for the Bengals played behind a horrible O-Line, yet he still took his team all the way to the Super Bowl, but yeah let's blame the coaches.

@@jaylonsalazar1291 coaching helped get the bengals to the super bowl

Dak isn’t better then stafford lmao stop it! not even when he was in Detroit. Dak was never better lol 😂 you funny

I agree except it shouldn't be arguably, Prescott is legitimately not top 15. Anyone who watches Prescott cannot honestly think that Prescott makes passes that others can't make. The guy seriously makes easy passes that any college qb can make.

Dude says no particular order but makes a list with an obvious order lol

Agreed he is 👍

Exactly

They also play in a terrible division and they can't win consistently.

Top 8 lol 😂. Guy has never won a single game against a top-5 team in regular season ever, he chokes in all big games because he sucks. All he beats is those shitty NFC least divisional teams & bottom trash NFL teams , enough to make the playoffs. I can name 10 better QBs than Dak Prescott, give the same Cowboys team to Kirk Cousins , Dallas will go to NFC championship game easy.

I'd put Carr and Kyler barely ahead of Dak too. So I'd have him 11

Tony romo is better then dak but dak is a good qb good enough to win I think it’s deeper than the player coaching

Nah tony romo carried bad teams dak can’t even carry good teams

@@dakcantreadcoverage5780 your exactly right jerry wasted his time never could get tony a real good team it was too late he started getting injured

Well..... no. Romo was an all pro on garbage teams. Had historically bad defenses even the worst in franchise history, trash olines, and a run game that was the worst cowboys run game since 1960 but never had a losing record and still would pull out crazy wins vs the tip top elite teams. It took the refs screwing them over multiple times to prevent them from going to the nfc championship that 2014 season which was the only year Romo had a great run game and solid oline. (Even though the oline was terrible in that playoffs) Prescott has the most stacked team and is trash.

@@jackwilson5152 do you remember when he bobbled the snap on the potential game winning fg against seattle? I do. That was hillarious!

No Dak was MUCH better than Stafford, probably better or about par with Kyler and Lamar was injured....Daks a very good QB, he just gets crapped on for being a Cowboy...top ten is good enough for any team...its on the organization to put talent around a guy whos top ten

@@ChrisSmith-tu9bu MUCH better than Stafford 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 yea……right 🤣🤣🤣🤣

@@ChrisSmith-tu9bu you think dak can win a Super Bowl with the weapons Stafford had ill wait

@@ChrisSmith-tu9bu Stafford had more yards per game, touchdowns, higher QBR. How can you possible say Dak was MUCH better? I feel like it’s up for debate who’s better but saying Dak is much better when Stafford has better stats and just quadrupled daks playoff wins in one season with a new team

@@jacoburanga218 Bwa ha ha...that tends to happen when you play more games and have Cooper Kupp...🤣 GTFOH with the dumb stuff casual....BTW dont forget all the times he threw to the defense...dude had amazing luck that the opponents couldn't catch but still managed to throw like two a game LMFAO

Because Brady still won playoffs and Superbowls and Rodger while 11-10 in the playoff with a superbowl win still has more post season success than the cowboys have had since Aikmen

Lol they won tho dak hasn’t. That’s the difference

Lol cause Brady did his work against anybody and didn’t fold in the playoffs in fact the opposite teams feared him having the ball last.

Yes but Patriots at least beat top teams out of conference and in playoffs.

@@jackwilson5152 That’s not the point. The point is that Dak playing in the NFC East is counted against his greatness meanwhile we ignore Brady and Rodgers playing against worse teams in their divisions for a majority of their careers.
