well, he did have 80 yards passing in a playoff game.....so that counts for something...The fact you think Tannehill took his team to the AFC Championship game says all one needs know about you.
I live in Tennessee and saw a few of those games. If you think Tannehill didn't lead his team to those wins, you have an agenda. Yes, DHenry had a lot to do with it but so did Tannehill.The fact you think Tannehill took his team to the AFC Championship game says all one needs know about you.
What's worse is the guy use to write for the Dallas Morning News.Gary Myers here in NY has always been a Cowboy hater. Like Dak or not, he certainly be very attractive on the open market and command 30 million a season. That is was the market dicates at this juncture. Hell, Cousins signed an extension for even more then that annual number.
You got to love the NY Media, they flat out said that the Giant job was more attractive cause they have a real franchise QB. Why did MM turn them down? Didn't the Giants win just 4 games? I don't want to hear about them having a bad defense. Dak in his rookie year lead the team to the playoffs and went head to head against Rodgers in the playoffs. Has Jones played under any pressure to win? Please....
make sure you save this gif for when Dak does in fact get his long term deal with the cowboys and then you see the real crying start from the people who want him gone.
because that is what’s going to happen
I agree with your points in general but the truth is that Dak needs weapons and paying him what he is asking is the surest way to ensure that we won't be able to afford any more retooling. If he couldn't win with the tools and defense that we already had how will he win being paid so much that we have to jettison anyone with larger contracts (more talent)?In 2019 Dak was just 2 yards away from breaking the Cowboys all-time record for passing yards in a season...
Either Dak is great or Jason Garrett was a great Head Coach with a great offensive scheme.
Considering Dak's accomplishments, if he only has average talent, the Garrett had to have been super awesome.
In reality Dak has had great accomplishments with a HC and offensive scheme that should only be in middle school, not in the NFL
I would never say that Dalton is a long term solution or should start over DakHow? So Andy Dalton is good now? Better than Dak? So good that Joe Burrow was just taken #1 overall?
That's right, I forgot how the Bengals are known for their competent coaching.he was in the league for 10 years...… you expect Dak to have gone to the playoffs 5 times in 4 years? Dak has played in 3 playoff games..... if not for incompetent coaching should have beat GB and be better prepared for Rams....
its not about getting to playoffs, its about winning in playoffs. Dalton hasn't come close at all...failure after failure, after failure, after failure after failure
Well said.I would never say that Dalton is a long term solution or should start over Dak
I will say that having a legit NFL starting caliber QB on board does ease the pressure to completely cave in to any and all Dak contract demands just a little bit.
I wouldn’t even call it leverage. It just lessens the possibility of a panic bend-over from the front office.
They may still very well do something dumb and give Dak 36/4 but at least they know, in the back of their minds, the backup plan is a “B” or “C” grade as opposed to the “F” that would result for a season where Rush ends up being the starter for an extended period of time
Does your phone autocorrect “Henry” to “Tannehill”?Tannehill got a truckload because he has done something Dak hasnt done yet. Take his team to the AFC Championship game
Jags wouldnt do it because they are re-building
What's worse is the guy use to write for the Dallas Morning News.
Testing the market would have been best for all parties.surprised Jerry did not let dak test the market . I doubt any team will pay dak the 40 million he wants . I think jerry and stephen were being very respectful and treated Dak like family and offered him 35 million , which i think is more than generous.
CornyDoes your phone autocorrect “Henry” to “Tannehill”?
Dude I want Dak to sign (for an amount that doesn’t hamstring the team). I like Dak, don’t love him.
so were the cowboys....Garrett is sure a first ballot HOF coach.That's right, I forgot how the Bengals are known for their competent coaching.
You pick the guy who doesn’t pay anyone as your case example?We will never know... but I think Bill belicheck might.. if he had the chance
I could see the Jags, maybe a nother team that felt they were a QB away like Denver. If someone gave Tannehill a truckload Dak would get it. Doesn't make it smart it is just what it is right now. Honestly Dalton wouldn't be all that much of a downgrade.
