So let’s say this Dak situation just goes completely side ways and we gotta bring someone in. Anyone thing Mariota might be able to do similar things with the cowboys cast? Maybe a new chapter in his book could turn him around. I’d be more for that than say Keenum, Winston etc.
Would love to have him. Dak at 35M or this kid at 6ish. Rather tempting.

For the record, Dak has played 4 years.

Nice cherry picking though.....
Aww, I know it hurts that your hero isn't as good as you thought. Don't cry troll. Dak will sign that big deal any day now. Dak slobberers have been saying that for 500+ days now, they have to be right eventually?

This is another one where you will see how ignorant Dak slobberers are when it comes to other players in the league and this imagined superiority of Dak to players that he is clearly not superior to. The ignorance is off the charts.
Ignorance is believing you are right and no one else has a right to their opinion!

He got replaced by Tannahill...... enough said.
Who led them to the AFC Championship to boot! Not sure what their record was when Tannerhill took over but it could not have been good!

I'd take Bridgewater over Mariota. Mariota's tentative passing put a hard, low ceiling on Tennessee's passing game, also putting a drag on its run heavy approach. It's inexplicable that his athleticism didn't have a bigger, more consistent impact. He'd do the same w/Dallas.

Mariota needs a change of scenery with a second chance tailored more to his strengths, possibly coming as a backup, not a starter.

If people thought Zeke faced a ton of stacked vices because Dak sucks, wait til they see how many stacked boxes occur with Mariota.

I didn't think you had reasonable comeback from my inconvenient fact. Running to personal insults is an admission that you lost.

Besides he's far from my hero. He's ok. Slightly above average. And when he gets elite money, it's going to be a real problem. I'd prefer keeping him on a franchise tag myself.

I just don't take it to an absolute extreme like you (and others) do. This idea that Stephen Hawking, even dead, is a better QB than Dak is laughable, if downright pathetic

Bridgewater is too standard and will cost more.

Mariota would produce similar results, for cheaper, with more upside.

Mariota makes sense as a backup b/c you don't have to change the playbook.

He's not an NFL starter, at this point, though.

I think Mariota presents a teriffic reclamation project for the right offensive/quarterback coach. It didn't surprise me in the least to see that Gruden and the Raiders are interested in Mariota.

I could see the same for McCarthy, but I certainly do not expect the Cowboys to have any interest. I think they're wrong, but the team appears to not even be considering options other than signing Prescott long term. It's a mistake not to investigate every potential option available to you.

You're off your rocker. You conveniently leave out 2 entire seasons and expect anyone to take you serious? And when you're called out for clearly cherry picking, you start the name calling.
