Shocking Omission Sends Shockwaves Through Cowboys Nation
In a move that has blindsided Dallas Cowboys fans and ignited a storm across social media, Dak Prescott, the star quarterback of America’s Team, was nowhere to be found on a prominent list of projected top NFL quarterbacks for the 2025 season. Fans, pundits, and analysts are left scratching their heads, asking the same burning question: how did Prescott not make the cut?
Dak’s Numbers Speak For Themselves
Prescott, entering what many consider the prime of his career, has consistently posted elite numbers since taking the reins in Dallas. With over 4,500 passing yards and 36 touchdowns in the 2024 season, most expected him to be a lock for any top QB list going into 2025.
Yet, the recently released ranking from a respected sports media outlet somehow left his name off entirely, favoring a new wave of young, flashy quarterbacks and some of the usual suspects like Patrick Mahomes, Joe Burrow, and Josh Allen.
Cowboys Fans Erupt In Outrage
The omission was like a slap in the face to the loyal Cowboys fanbase. Within minutes of the list’s release, hashtags like #PutRespectOnDaksName and #DakSnubbed began trending on X (formerly Twitter). Memes, videos, and passionate posts flooded the internet, painting the picture of a fanbase in full meltdown mode.
Fans weren’t just upset—they were crying, as some posts humorously exaggerated, sharing tearful selfies and dramatic TikToks declaring it the “ultimate disrespect” to their quarterback.
Media And Analysts Left Baffled
It wasn’t just fans. Even NFL analysts and former players joined the conversation, expressing disbelief at the snub. ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith called the list “utterly ridiculous,” while former Cowboy Michael Irvin said it was “a slap in the face of everything the star on the helmet stands for.”
Analysts highlighted Prescott’s leadership, his resilience under pressure, and his clutch performances during the 2024 playoffs as clear reasons why his absence from the list was nothing short of disrespectful.
Fuel To The Fire For 2025 Season
While the snub stings now, many believe it could serve as extra motivation for Prescott and the Cowboys heading into the 2025 season. Already seen as a team on the verge of making a serious Super Bowl run, this perceived slight might be the spark that ignites an even more fiery campaign from Prescott.
As one fan put it: “They can ignore Dak now, but they’ll be forced to remember his name when he’s holding the Lombardi Trophy in February.”
Conclusion
Whether the omission was an oversight, clickbait, or a genuine shift in the media’s perception of Prescott, one thing is certain—Cowboys fans will not forget. And neither, most likely, will Dak Prescott.
