Dak Prescott had as good a season this year as any of those. 4500 yards and 42 TD's while playing two fewer games than Cam and Tebow in their biggest seasons.
Prescott played in 13 games. Newton played in 14 games. Nice math skills.
Did it ever cross your mind, that even with that one extra game, Prescott still was responsible for 62 more plays? That he threw over 100 more passes than Newton? That he also had a lower completion percentage, lower yards/att, lower TD:ATT ratio, and higher INT:ATT ratio?
That's the problem you have when you ignore the in-depth statistics and just glance at total numbers.

Honestly I completely forgot and counted the 15 games currently. And I have a hard time believing Dak had more snaps this year, our backup played the equivalent of a few games, Dak played 13 games but missed a quarter or more in 5 of them.

I would argue that total numbers are far more important. The totals factor in the "in-depth statistics". If a QB throws 10 INT's he inherently has 10 fewer opportunities to score a TD and is directly affecting his total yards.
