Should the Cowboys risk further injury to Dak?

[Proximo]

Of course it’s worth the risk.
This is exactly why they play the games.

 

[Fastpitch Dad]

Not be callous, but purely from a business standpoint, what do they have to lose?

His contract is up after this season so they could simply not resign him (includes franchise tag) if he were seriously injured.

There are only two regular season games left they would be on the hook for paying him.

If anything, this is the exact situation any team would love to have with a soon-to-be high-priced free agent (franchise tag not withstanding) going in to the last two games of the season.

Very interesting view.

I never thought about it that way, but from a business stand point it makes for a good discussion.

 

[glimmerman]

Dak is the first cyborg QB...

I wonder if his arm is Goodell approved...

Lol. Elliot will get a 3 game suspension for it.

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

It’s not speculation. It’s what Prescott himself has stated

He said he’s betting on himself?

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

Yeah, lets play Cooper Rush against the Eagles..............LMAO

Better yet, why dont we just tell the league we are forfeiting and save everybody's time.

I’m saying lol......these people are so miserable man this is what it’s about. I’m amped up......I’m down for watching the Eagles season end and ours extends another week.

Yes, they can win the division but their chance of success in the playoffs seems extremely low.

With Dak not 100% healthy, their chance of success in the playoffs seems to be near zero.

Well I don't think they're all that comfortable with Cooper rush but you know the story about Cowboys backups coming in in big games so........

Looks kind of like a lot of higher salaried players mostly play for pride in the playoffs.

Postseason amounts increase each year, and in 2019 (following the 2018 season), players received postseason pay of:

• $27,000 for a wild card game ($29,000 if they were division winner entering this round), plus
• $29,000 for the divisional round, plus
• $54,000 for the conference championship, and
• $118,000 for winning the Super Bowl or $59,000 for losing.

well you play sports to get to the playoffs, technically your salary is for the entire year the playoffs are simply a bonus but the year ends art the last game which is a playoff game should you make it that far..sure you should have pride but your goal is not the regular season its the playoffs which is why you are paid in the first place..

Plenty of guys play hurt. This is where you see what your worth is. The time is now. We have no chance with our backup. Lets go!!!!!

Prime example of what happens when you don’t play your best football every game
This game shouldn’t even matter
As for Dak I’m no doctor but from my understanding there is no risk of doing more damage other than pain type issue

They're not beating PHI if Dak doesn't play. The bigger question is will Amari actually show up for a road game?

 

[Whirlwin]

He said he’s betting on himself?

Yes just before the season started I believe the quote was. I don’t want to do anything until after the season when I prove myself. I thought everyone was aware of that.

Maybe if you listened to more reports like how Prescott has had this before and never missed a game because of it. What is this huge risk? Are you saying save him for next season? Maybe we should let the medical staff and the Cowboys decide what to do.

I never heard that. That makes no sense especially since there are reports they have been negotiating.

The entire form knows it. Except you I believe. That’s all everybody was talking about here

I Have over 100,000 posts on the cowboy fan forum I’m from the original site. I’m known for my integrity I don’t make things up. Prescott “if you did not want to sign a contract till after the season was over he wanted to prove to everybody how great he really was or if he wasn’t he live with that also

 

[gjkoeppen]

I never heard that. That makes no sense especially since there are reports they have been negotiating.

It was reported as recently as a week or 10 days ago that there hasn't been any negotiations since the start of the season.

The season is on the line of course.

November 8, 2019. I just googled it. I don’t have the sight because I don’t know how to transfer it. But look it up if you want
