Signed by Cowboys Cowboys sign QB Andy Dalton

CWR · May 2, 2020

So Dak may feel a little heat here. Dalton is a capable QB. If Im Dak I dont want to hold out and let Dalton learn the offense while Im sitting at home playing with my pud.

I love the fact MM doesn't mind putting pressure on his starter and pushing him to be better. Which is exactly what this move does in my opinion.

This is most definitely a new era in Cowboys football.

I am not a Prescott fan, but it is pretty clear you have a horse in this race.

Are you talking to an imaginary army of Dak Slobberers only?

What about others who actually don't really hang from Prescott's jewels yet don't think he could step right in and replace him?

I would say you are worried about nothing. Unless age has somehow caught up to Dalton (unlikely, he's been relatively healthy and is only 32) then I assure you he can also stand in a pocket all by himself, hand off to Zeke, and throw TDs to wide open guys (against WASH and NY only).

I’m willing to pay $1 million more for Dalton instead of Rush.

I feel like I have entered the Twilight Zone.

Between the hiring of McCarthy, the pre-draft F A signings, the draft and now this, I don't recognize this FO anymore.

I followed Dalton in college. Let me say I was impressed. Actually, he has only been with one team also and did a lot of carrying for that team. Lets get him a star and see what he does. It would be a waste to not to give him a try for the top spot,

Sober up lol

Could Dak make few of those throws. That was impressive.

It doesnt make sense. And dak/coop shoulda been signed last offseason. This is holdout insurance. I dont think negotiations are going well

But Dak turned down 33m for last year. That cost him 31m and now he thinks he'll get it back. Probably not.

Two things:

1) I'm glad they didn't sign Dak last year. All along I felt we were smarter waiting, to get more tape on what exactly he was as a QB. If that meant his value skyrocketed, fine. I'd much have preferred that than the alternative. I still stand by that.

2) Is it the Cowboys' fault if negotiations are going poorly? They've made an earnest offer. It'd be foolish to write a blank check. Dak is gambling for the bigger payday, and that's his prerogative. But it's also the team's prerogative to have a cap on what they think he's worth.

Whoa. They ain't messing around this year

I think its a very good signing. If Dak went down with an inhury I believe Dalton can win games for you with the team we are building.

Andy's record as a starter pass 4 seasons

2-11 last year
5-6 in 2018
7-9 in 2017
6-9 in 2016

I am a little surprised he would take a year and $7 million. In Dallas. With a QB that has been durable.

I guess he wanted to go back to Texas, who knows?

No starting offers, so why not?

Oneiros · May 2, 2020

Great backup signing. Don't want him as a full time starter but he should be able to get us some wins.

JoeyBoy718 · May 2, 2020

We couldn’t find any more white safeties to replace Heath, so we’re giving Dalton a try.

Dez is out of pocket

1. Never watch another man’s pockets

2. Romo had a stipulation in his contract that meant he couldnt be franchise tagged in 2013. He had ALL the leverage back then

3. Romo is 100x the QB that Dak is
