Make this man the GM. He can go find Brees or Brady, no problem.

Hey, LittleD, while you’re at the Hall of Fame Store would you mind picking up a few other items?

Just get as many of these as you can
  • Lawrence Taylor
  • Mike Webster
  • Tony Gonzalez
Those are definitely positions that can help us right away

Also, if you see any of these and you have room in your basket, one of each would be great
  • Deion Sanders
  • Ed Reed
  • Deacon Jones
We also might not be 100% with McCarthy either, so swing by Boston and pick up a coach.
This one will be fine
  • Bill Belichick

If only I could. Sadly, I can't and the Cowboys have many more years to wait before greatness visits again. Many more 8x8's and 9x7"s to go.

What is wrong with you? Most people (like me) see him as Dak's backup and are excited by that since he's a heck of a lot better backup than what Dallas had last year. A few want him to replace Dak and suddenly it's some grand conspiracy against Dak.


Why did Dalton sign for only one year as a "back up"?

Think about it.

This has Tennessee written all over it.

Playoff Games
Dak: 3 in 4 years (75%)
Dalton: 4 in 9 years (44%)
Haha, look at the nonsense coming frim yhis faux contributor.

Let's ignore the game his team played during his best season because he got hurt at the end of the year.

Let's play more games, since that is what you play.
Dalton's team in his first 4 years - 4 playoff games (100%)
Dak's team in his first 4 years - 3 games (75%).

Years making the playoffs in their first 5 years:
Dalton - 5 (100%)
Dak - At Best 3 (60%). Currently sitting at 2/4 (50%)

I can’t believe there are people who want Andy freaking Dalton to be the starting QB of the Cowboys now.

What the heck is wrong with you people.


:facepalm:

Same 2nd rung type of QB's except Dalton has more experience and is only making tip money. No way we should pay Dak now. Let him go fish for that long term
deal or let him sit.

Seems we're stuck with what we have at least for this year. Actually, look what Winston got and how he's
played and Dalton doesn't look so bad to me.
A bad QB is a bad QB. You’ve been a harsh critic of the QB position for years. Now you seem to be OK with a bad QB because of cost. In reality it’s probably just because it is someone different than Dak and you hated Dak regardless of how great a value he has been on his rookie contract. That is puzzling to me. Why is that?

Obligatory reminder that QBs don’t win playoff games in vacuums.

Not really okay but, I will stick with Dalton over Prescott because of the money. Don't hate Dak at all. Fine man and very nice person not worth what he's asking for. You have to be worth the money to command that kind of money...that's all. Not paying a non-top 5 QB top 5 money on a long term deal. Dak, Andy and Foles are basically the same QB. None of them are top 5 and don't or shouldn't
be paid like it.

So you were good with Dak from 2016-2018 but in 2019 when talk about big money started it made you change your mind?

Dalton went to the playoffs with teams full of Pro Bowlers. The idea that his bus driving took a corpse to the playoffs like young John Elway is comical. The 2015 Bengals had the #2 scoring defense in the NFL and he went nowhere with it.

AJ Green was better than any receiver the Cowboys have had since 2012-2014 Dez Bryant. Jermaine Gresham and Tyler Eifert were Pro Bowl TEs. He had multiple 1,000+ yard rushers behind him. The 2015 team had 5 Pro Bowlers on defense.

Marvin Lewis wasn't a great coach but it's hard to seriously argue he was worse than the clapper. He at least could put togeather multiple good defenses. Hell, he was DC of the 2000 Ravens and had 6 top 10 scoring defenses on the Bengals.

Come on, that team was not loaded with Pro Bowlers. There were good Defensively but not a lot of talent Offensively. Yes, AJ Green was good but who else? Remember, the reason the Bengals lost in 2015 was not Dalton or the Offense. The reason they lost was because of a bone head named Burfict. This guy was passed over by every team except Lewis, and it cost them in that game. He's had three thousand yard rushers in his career:

2011 Cedric Benson 1067, 3.9 YPC, 6 TDs
2012 Benjarivs Green-Ellis 1094, 3.9 YPC, 6 TDs
2014 Jeremy Hill 1124, 5.1 YPC, 11 TDs

That's it.
