CZ POLL Do you want Dak back with the latest reported contract offer?

[superonyx]

Dak is being judged by what we've seen; the erratic throws, the lack of leadership, the casual way in which he approaches drives that end in failure, and the poor performances against tougher teams.
He just doesn't have the "it" factor that drives great quarterbacks.
He is the same Dak he was in college. Exactly the same.

Oh I guess only the detractors are judging him by what they have seen.
What are the rest of us judging him by?

I don’t want Dak back period!

And that is all he’ll ever be.

Like I've said before........this fan base will be split down the middle when he signs his new deal.

Dak's team was overrated last year, he did everything he could while every other player's play stepped down. This is sounding like the Romo era again, the defense was BAD, the special teams was TERRIBLE. You're right though it was all DAK's fault. Nothing to do with the most overrated player in the league Ezekiel Elliott either.

Yep. I remember Dak would wait to start playing in the second half of games last year. Great approach when you are in a contract year. He’s not worth it. Poor performance when your career is on the line. Dak will play great in playoff games, I just know it. He responds well under pressure.

If they pay him $33 million, $105 million guaranteed, then don't spend another cap dime on offense, spend the rest of the cap on defense. If he is as good as he thinks he is, he and Zeke can carry the offense. No more top O-line, no top receivers, sign Witten to a minimum. Dak and Zeke can handle it all.

You are being sarcastic and I agree with you , but Dak and zeke cannot carry the team as we painfully saw last year .

 

[PAPPYDOG]

Vote is 50/50 oh how things are changing......

Hey, Dak you can fool some of the people some of the time but you ......you get the idea!

 

[KJJ]

As of this posting it’s almost 50-50 with Dak leading by just five votes. Hard to believe that many fans would rather let Dak walk and enter the 2020 season with a castoff at QB. I find that hard to believe but that’s just how strange this fan base is.

So dumb buy entertaining none the less.

I want a recount. The boards been hacked.

 

[ultron]

Nope, tag him and come up with a plan B for the future.

Tagging him would screw us big time in FA... all 33 million would count towards the cap. That’s no bueno.

Not having Dak this season would screw us. Maybe you're willing to throw an entire season away before it even gets started but I'm not. We can draft a guy and let him understudy for a season and then let Dak walk. Turning the keys over to 4th round pick, Dak in his rookie season and going 13-3 was a complete fluke. We didn't plan that and we never should.

 

[KJJ]

You can tell there’s a lot of young dumb fans on this board that don’t remember what it was like during the 5 years the Cowboys struggled to find a QB after Troy Aikman. The Cowboys have been a very lucky franchise throughout their history when it comes to QBs. They had Don Meredith during the teams early years who gave the team a chance. He was followed by Craig Morton who gave the team a chance. Morton was followed by one of the all-time great QBs Roger Staubach who won championships. Danny White followed Staubach and he gave the Cowboys a chance. From 1986 until 1988 the Cowboys hit the skids a QB with a declining Danny White and a couple of duds Steve Pelluer and Gary Hogeboom that led to a 3-13 season and the end of the Tom Landry era.

Fortunately Troy Aikman came along in 1989 to save the franchise at QB. It’s obvious some of the younger fans here weren’t around after Aikman was released in 2000. That’s when the Cowboys began to find out what some of the other teams around the league go through that suffer year after year without a solid QB. Having to bench one QB for another and then another. It’s a painful existence for fans and a franchise. For 5 long years after Aikman the Cowboys played musical chairs at QB with a wasted second round pick, a couple of stiffs that failed at baseball, a head case who eventually ended up in prison and 2 aging castoffs. Life without a QB isn’t fun. Hope finally returned to Dallas when the Cowboys lucked out with an undrafted free agent. You have idiots on his board that want us to follow the same stupid blueprint as the Commanders by allowing a productive franchise QB to walk for a cheaper, lesser option and end up picking in the top 5.

The Deadskins have burned six first round draft picks on QBs the past 20 years, including two in the top five and they keep coming up empty. The best QB they’ve had in the past 20 years they allowed to walk and he only cost them a 4th round pick. After burning a first round pick on a QB last April they may end up burning another first round pick on yet another QB. The Cowboys FO has made some mistakes over the years but they’re not about to make the fatal mistake the majority of this dumb fan base wants them to make by allowing their franchise QB to walk and replacing them with a cheaper castoff. That can lead to years of futility and wasted high draft picks trying to replace them and that’s been proven.

He just doesn't have the "it" factor that drives great quarterbacks.
He is the same Dak he was in college. Exactly the same.

Lack of leadership? C'mon, dude, quit making stuff up. I'm squarely in the middle on Dak, don't know exactly what I think at this point. If you don't like him, fine, but be accurate as to why.

Dak is a noted leader of his teammates. This is known.

Exactly my view . A lackluster overrated QB since college . Played well during his rookie season due to the most expensive OL ever assembled and a humming running game and many weapons at the receiver position . This QB is so overrated it is not funny . His mechanics and throwing motion is so off . It will be a long season if he is back . Worse If he is back at the price he is demanding .

 

[basel90]

The board voting on Dak is showing a majority now against Dak’s contract proposal . This says a lot .

 

[NeonNinja]

My vote would be for non-exclusive and make the decision based off that. It’s not happening but it’s the best path now, IMO. Jerry will make him highest paid.

 

[Buzzbait]

I want Dak back when he's happy. What we want or think is irrelevant.
What the going rate is, IS what he ought to get.

With the Dallas Cowboys, the "going rate" seems to be whatever you want regardless of how much. Threaten to hold out or go to Cabo and Jerry will blink.

 

[texbumthelife]

Let me start by saying I do not think Dak is greedy for trying to get what he thinks he is worth. Everyone could and should fight for the best they can when given the chance.

That said, he is not an elite QB and the Cowboys should not shackle themselves to him just to avoid going QB shopping. That's an incredibly brash and near-sighted solution. Lazy you might say.

 

[GimmeTheBall!]

Since it's the off-season and we cannot seem to reach the Dak Prescott thread limit, I thought it would be fun to get a general summary of what everyone thinks.

As usual, I do not provide an "easy way out" option that most people would quickly choose such as "I want him back just not at that rate" because that's irrelevant and not realistic.

Let's just assume most fans would want him back for a low amount ..

So, the next question is, do you want Dak back at the rumored amount offered?

Click bait for innocents!
