This argument reminds me of when some guys around here tried to claim that Tyrod Taylor was better than Andy.  Just look how he fared when he did not have the number one rushing attack in the league behind him.

Prescott has had more talent around him on offense than any other QB in the league ever since the Cowboys drafted him.  There are a lot of QBs that could have matched his production with that much talent around them.

Tyrod Taylor has a better chance at being a starting QB this season than Andy Dalton. I don’t necessarily agree that Taylor was ever better than Dalton, but do with that what you will.

And Dak put up those numbers as a ROOKIE. But sure, a 5th year veteran QB on an equally stacked team put a slightly better rating for 12 games. Because those situations are exactly the same, context be dammed!
