Everybody loves to discuss who the best quarterbacks in the NFL are. Once you get beyond the top-five, people will have vastly different opinions on the position.
One of the most discussed quarterbacks in the league is Dak Prescott, as he’s the starting option for the Dallas Cowboys.
Cowboys fans will lead you to believe that Prescott is a top-five quarterback in the NFL. Meanwhile, pretty much everyone else disagrees.
Then comes the incoming rookie class who each have potential to become superstars in their own right.
With all of that said, former New York Giants wide receiver Plaxico Burress was talking about CJ Stroud’s potential and hit Dak Prescott with a stray while doing so.
Here he is appearing on The Carton Show, claiming he believes Stroud is a better quarterback. Additionally, Burress says the Cowboys “will never win a championship” with Prescott leading the way.
"Dak Prescott has reached his ceiling as a QB with the Dallas Cowboys. The Cowboys won't win a championship with him."

The part that might actually be true is Burress’ concern that the Cowboys quarterback has already “hit his ceiling.”
So, it makes sense why some people would choose Stroud, as he has yet to prove himself and could end up being a better quarterback in the long run.
But that is yet to be determined. Dak Prescott has a great roster around him in Dallas while CJ Stroud is working with a rebuilding Houston Texans team.
So, the upcoming season should be in Prescott’s favor over Stroud. Regardless, sports fans couldn’t help but react to Plaxico Burress’ criticism.
When all else fails & this show is failing, bring up the Cowboys

There is still time for Dak Prescott to win a Super Bowl. Just saying.
It took Peyton manning 9 years to win a Super Bowl. It took drew Brees 10 years. Took Matt stafford 13 years. Dak is in year 8.

The Tony Romo comparisons are growing.
He's right, the Cowboys can win some games but to win the the Super Bowl not by a long shot. The same as it was with Tony Romo. Waste of good money.

I mean, it’s been a while since we’ve seen the Cowboys in the Super Bowl. But the roster is deep and is a difficult team to beat in the regular season.
Maybe this is the year Dallas puts it all together and goes on a run. Who knows? But either way, all eyes are on Dak Prescott.
