Dak needs surgery, out for several weeks

[TheHerd]

Dak needed preseason work. We will have a top 10 pick by year end.

We can only hope. But we're stuck with Dak's contract one more year at least.

Fishing for me

I might work on my novel I've been putting off.

Dak needs brain surgery, maybe that way he can get the ball out on time

 

[SteveTheCowboy]

If this is the case, Cowboys need to not fool themselves thinking we can win anything of substance with a backup QB, buffoon HC in Mike McCarthy and lets start Tanking for Bryce Young and solidify this organization with a real QB

We can try to keep our dignity.

We suck hard AND you want to purposely lose. after one game.

Oh Lord we get what we deserve.

 

[Cowboysheelsreds053]

Do we still have the best QB In the NFCE?

lol

 

[Vtwin]

I'm stuck with this team, but man, I've never seen success with us, and I'm realising that I probably won't.

You're looking at it all wrong, my friend. You are a fan of THE world's most valuable sports franchise!

 

[DandyDon52]

Let the Will Grier era begin!

they will go with rush, but they may bring WG back as they need another bkup.

 

[Coy]

sorry dak got hurt

but no big loss

I kind of agree, although he is clearly better than Rush, it would be a 4-13 season w/o him instead of a 6-11 season with Dak.

How much are the Cowboys out if they release him next June 1st?

Nobody truly believes Dak is THE guy anyways. The responses here confirm that.

A lot of people just defend him because he’s a Cowboy. They don’t honestly think he’s a difference maker

He has gone downhill since Denver game last year.

You assume adeptness with a pick or two. And use micah as your example. We've screwed up some high draft picks.....AND....you want a loser culture to show for it.

In the first game.

What the entire fik

I'm not asking for a loser culture. What I'm asking for is for an opportunity to use some high draft picks to address some glaring issues that were obvious BEFORE the season that are only going to become more obvious as the season goes on without Dak. The fact is, what happened tonight is entirely Jerry's fault, and we need some high picks to fix some of these issues.

 

[Pessimist_cowboy]

He’s damaged goods

 

[Gator88]

He's pretty injury prone now unfortunately

Garropolo right now. I can’t imagine they won’t take a 3rd, if you’re down 4-5 games when Dak comes back then it’s over. But if you’re down 2-3 then 100% you’ve got a shot.

Jimmy can win with this D, and you have the cap space

Jimmy can’t win with this WR group

 

[WillieBeamen]

2019- the “shoulder” injury

2020- the ankle

2021- the calf

2022- the hand


Not even his biggest homers can deny that he is injury prone

 

[john van brocklin]

This is the worst!
They will lose 4 to 6 games during his absence, miss the playoffs and Jerry will blame it all on Dak being out.

 

[plymkr]

It’s really not going to matter the team is going nowhere anyway. It was obvious when Dak was in there. No one on this offense scares anyone and the defense isn’t good enough to overcome the lack of scoring we’re going to have this season.

When Dak threw into triple coverage for the pick is when I felt the bomb drop. That was a horrible read. Then all the talk of Dak not being able to read defenses popped in my head.

Dak is not good reading defenses, Elliott is washed up, and the receivers are average. We got away with Dak's play when we had elite RB play, great receivers and good TEs. But no one scares the defense and if Dak is asked to make things happen, he does, for the other team. Bummer.

Good point there. They really set the blueprint for how to fluster and beat Dak.

According to over the cap it's cap neutral but leave 49M in dead money (which is his cap hit for the year). We'd have more cap the following year by cutting him.
