I don’t think he’ll ever be an elite guy, but he’s not yet hit his prime. Perhaps he will blossom into a top QB.
If you find a top 10 QB. That is pretty much the question here. Some stats support that he is. The 0-8 stat says he is not. He has had the top line in football most of his career. He has had one of the best RB's, and has not played that well without him. His TE has been top tier. And his WR's have not been all that bad either. Yet there are still question marks.

Me. I wouldn't pay the man.
I think it'd be a bit hard to argue that he's not top 12 at the very least. Factoring in age, durability, etc. he's one of the best "pay him" prospects in the league. [Reply]

If you are going to pay a player elite money...they would have to have elite traits. The ability to rally your team is one of those...
Same reason I wouldn't sign Matt Stafford...he's like 9-45 against teams with winning records.
You either have this or you dont...Alex Smith was the same. If you were down 2 scores in the 4th...there was like a 10% chance he would lead a comeback.
Dak had 8 chances to lead his team back...and it didn't happen once. Mahomes did it in three consecutive post season games...
So you're going to blame him for the NFL not rigging games in his favor? Wow. [Reply]

The man just turned down $175 MILLION dollars.
Say what you will about his talent level and ability but that takes fucking BALLS.
