Former Player Says 1 QB Doesn’t Have ‘It Factor’

The oft-mentioned “it factor” is hard to quantify and impossible to explain, but most sports fans know it when they see it and it’s tough to change your mind about someone once you decide they don’t have it.

One former player feels this way about one of the NFL’s best quarterbacks, as he doesn’t believe this quarterback has the “it factor” needed to get his team to the next level.

Former Green Bay Packers, Minnesota Vikings, and Miami Dolphins wide receiver Greg Jennings recently appeared on The Carton Show and said Dallas Cowboys QB Dak Prescott doesn’t have the it factor, noting “I just don’t believe that they feel he is the guy that can get us over the hump” and added “When you look at him, and then you look at guys like Patrick Mahomes, guys like Joe Burrow…does he have that “it factor” to where he’s the difference maker to get us over the hump?”

Dak is in the news recently given the fact that he is heading into a contract year and owner Jerry Jones has been steadfast in holding off on one for the time being even though he reportedly believes in Dak and wants him in Dallas long-term.

Prescott has something to prove after dropping to 2-5 in the playoffs following last year’s blowout at the hands of the Green Bay Packers, and it was part of Jennings’ point in the sense that Dak’s regular season success hasn’t carried over to when it matters most.

It’s a make-or-break year for Dak in Dallas.
