"Hurts was a one-year wonder. Dak has been really good from year-one," a fan added.
"Don't ever compare a running back to my QB," another fan said.

The fans' reaction sparked from a debate between LeSean McCoy and James Jones during an episode of Speak. The former Eagles running back said that he believes Hurts is a better quarterback than Prescott, but the former wide receiver disagreed.

Jones responded:

"There's nothing that Jalen Hurts does better than Dak Prescott at the quarterback spot but the read option. He don't throw better than him, he don't hrow in anticipation better than him.
"I mean, this dude had 5,000 yards last year and led the NFL in touchdown passes. There's nothing Jalen Hurts does - except running the read option and maybe the tush push - that he does better than Dak Prescott."

McCoy insisted that Hurts "wins better" than Prescott and many fans baked him up by pointing out the quarterbacks' playoff careers. Hurts made it to the Super Bowl just two years ago, while Prescott has never been past the Divisional Round in his career. While this may be true, Prescott has performed at a higher level when the two have faced off head-to-head.
