Dak Prescott delivered an MVP-caliber season, yet critics call him overrated

Despite leading the league in touchdown passes last season and finishing as the runner-up in MVP voting, Dak Prescott has once again found himself at the center of controversy. A recent CBS Sports ranking labeled him as one of the NFL’s most "overrated" quarterbacks — a take that has sparked heated reactions across the league.

Prescott’s 2023 campaign was arguably his best. He threw for 4,516 yards, posted a 105.9 passer rating, and tossed 36 touchdowns — more than Patrick Mahomes and Josh Allen. He also led the Cowboys to a 12–5 record and a division title. Yet, somehow, questions about his value continue to swirl.

Some analysts argue that the Cowboys’ early playoff exits weigh heavily on Prescott’s legacy. But when held up against the numbers, the criticism doesn’t always stick. Prescott ranked top 3 in QBR and had the lowest interception percentage of any starting QB in the NFC.

“It’s easy to throw labels around,” said one NFC scout. “But calling him overrated while ignoring the tape and the stats — that’s lazy analysis.” Prescott’s consistency, leadership, and command of the offense have kept Dallas among the NFC’s elite since 2016.

Bills WR Officially Benched After Repeatedly Showing Up Late to Team Meetings - This Is His Fifth Time Being Late, He Was Reportedly Intoxicated
SHOCKING news out of Orchard Park: The Buffalo Bills have indefinitely benched their former second-round wide receiver after yet another disciplinary incident. Sources inside One Bills Drive confirm this marks the FIFTH time in the 2025 season the player has been late to a team meeting — and the latest offense was the final straw: he reportedly showed up reeking of alcohol. Moments after Monday’s team meeting, head coach Sean McDermott addressed the media with a tone that left no room for interpretation: “The Buffalo Bills will not tolerate disrespect toward this football team, disrespect toward your teammates, and disrespect toward yourself. We’ve given chances, we’ve had private conversations, we’ve done everything we can. At this point, enough is enough. When you walk into this building, you represent an entire city and an entire fan base. We cannot and will not accept this any longer.” That player? None other than Keon Coleman — the once-hyped Florida State product drafted in the second round of 2024 to be Josh Allen’s next big-play weapon. From “generational talent” to full-blown headache in less than two seasons: Incidents 1–2: Late to meetings → internal warnings Incident 3: Benched for two full games in November 2025 Incident 4: Seen dancing on the sideline while serving that benching Incident 5: Showed up late AGAIN… and allegedly intoxicated → indefinitely removed from the active roster Just weeks ago, Bills Hall of Famer Andre Reed spent nearly two hours on the phone trying to mentor the 22-year-old, but it now appears the message fell on deaf ears. With no Bills receiver currently on pace for even 760 yards this season and the room already paper-thin after the Amari Cooper and Brandin Cooks additions, losing Keon Coleman — even for non-football reasons — is a gut punch. Bills Mafia is LIVID. Many are already calling for the front office to cut their losses, just like they did with first-round bust Kaiir Elam and second-round flop Boogie Basham. The million-dollar question now: Is this the end of Keon Coleman in Buffalo, or will Sean McDermott and Brandon Beane give him one final lifeline? Drop your take in the comments: Keep Keon and hope he grows up… or ship him out TODAY? 👇🔥
