They could if they had not overpaid bums like zeke and others . The cap is too stretched for a QB who wants to be paid more than Brady and mahomes . Sorry , the math doesn’t work .
In the Church of DAK 2+2=5........:muttley:

The math works out just fine. Do your research.

Jerry is playing with fire if he doesn't resolve this situation soon.

“What has he won?” The most ignorant argument ever that’s constantly spewed here. There’s 53 players not 1.

As long as they rock a star, you will go to bat for them.

So your opinion is invalid

"Winning" is a team objective in a team sport. Dak is just one individual. There is no such thing as Superman who makes a bad team great. When the team gets turned around, Dak is a good enough QB to win Super Bowls.
Not true, just the other day I personally witnessed a caped individual exiting a phone booth

Zeke last year: only 4.0 ypc & only 6 td's. So yes, in spite of Zeke, who rarely breaks long runs, & got paid to be an elite RB.


NOPE sorry no one can be elite behind that OL. that 4 qb carousel ie no threat to pass, and bad defense and questionable playcalls that got the offense so in the hole it never had chance to establish a run game..get over it ,its team game and add covid and 2 lower leg injurys and he nearly got 1k..id say using 2020 as any example is hatorade troll level posting brah..

Of course they paid zeke to be the CenterPoint of the team as he has been from 2016-2018 but 2019 they handed the keys to the offense to Moore whom had an infatuation to be pass happy team and couldn't consistently call or scheme run plays into is passing scheme..it was disjointed, most of the run calls were vanilla, stuff you call for a FB..

the timing could not have been worse and if thats the direction they wanted to go showcase Dak and leave the newly paid RB on the sideline or running poorly designed fullback plays..well thats not on zeke.. he played well in 2019 despite that but it all fell apart as the entire team fell apart..yes the fumbles were major concern but really he had to games B2B mad et appear worse so he didnt fumble in 13 games not exactly an issue going forward..

chat happens..

There are some sure.

there are also some critics who, when the team was winning would say “Well Dak can’t throw for over 200 yards”.

So I think this critique does cut both ways.
He was struggling to throw for 200 yards. The point that was missed is that the higher stats Dak has, the more games the team losses. I have never seen a QB with Dak’s stats that didn’t have those stats translate to wins.

Romo had everything he could possibly have wanted to win a Super Bowl. He was a choke artist. He’s doing it again in the booth
Romo’s record number of 4th quarter comebacks says different. He did lose a few games early in his career due to his bad decisions late in games, but Romo was a very good QB during the second half of his career, much better than a Dak.

People don’t know what it means to be a winner. I think that’s the biggest issue . They know nothing about culture. Loyalty.
The older fans remembers these things being a part of the game. The same can’t be said for the young’uns though.

What did Romo win? Isn't that the criteria we using for QBs or is it empty stats? Or is it regardless of the team the QB has to overcome everything? Y'all keep so many it's hard to keep up with all the bs you guys talk about Dak.
Romo didn’t have empty stats. Romo had a record number of 4th quarter comebacks and he won games with the supporting cast consisting of players like Costa and Bernadeau. Dak has not displayed the ability to over come anything, even when surrounded by a great supporting cast.

I agree with all of that... But.. Romo will always be judged on his lack of playoff success.

Dak is headed down that same path.

Comparing a kid playing a tad over 4 years to a retired veteran whose been in the league 13 years is ludicrous!

Dak hasn't even reached Romo's second half of his career which would be 6.5 years.

Compare the two's first 4 years to make it valid! It took Romo 4 years to take Dallas 13-3.

With the 5th best defense based on points allowed, the team was 13-3 in 2016.

In 2016 Dallas had the 8th best defense at 20 points per game......in 2017 they were ranked 9th at 20.8 points per game (yet the team record dropped from 13-3 in 2016 to 9-7).....in 2018 they were ranked 7th at 20.9 points per game (team record was 10-6)....in 2019 they were ranked 9th at 20.1 points per game (team record was 8-8)......

....so while the defense has maintained a ranking between 7th and 9th while giving up between 20.1 and 20.9 points per game........so once again something else is blamed but Dak.

This is why we disagree most of the time. You are always full of crap. Too much of a joker to be serious.

So you are taking into account Romo's first 2 years where he didn't even play????? Yeah, that makes sense. How about comparing the two in their first 4 years of actually starting:


Romo (55 games)

1,178 Completions 1,857 Attempts 63.4% Comp % 15,045 Yards 8.1 Yards Per Attempt 107 TD's 55 INT's Team Record 38 Wins 17 Losses .691 Win % 2 Pro Bowls 1-3 Playoff Record

Prescott (64 Games)

1,363 Completions 2,071 Attempts 65.8% Comp % 15,778 Yards 7.6 Yards Per Attempt 97 TD's 36 INT's Team Record 40 Wins 24 Losses .625 Win % 2 Pro Bowls 1-2 Playoff Record


Dallas Team Record by Year when Romo started:

2006: 6-4
2007: 13-3
2008: 8-5
2009: 11-5

So it took Romo his 2nd year to reach 13 wins but nice try. Oh, and Romo actually had a better win % in his first 4 years when compared to Dak so when looking at all stats both QVB's are relatively comparable in their first 4 years.

Who cares. Houston made a mistake paying him and we shouldn't be doing the same thing.
but y our brothers at arms, keep touting Watson and he continuously is ranked up there with other top QBs....

I am just trying to figure out what measures you use to measure a QB, and then compare it to the rest...when I do, all you all just get mad....

Amazing how the math doesn't work only for Dak.
No I think math does not work regardless of what average QB you are looking to overpay. I’d say the same thing for Kurt Cousins, Jared Goff and Dak Prescott. They are all average QBs who are not worth the premium price tag they are demanding.
