“You’re not a top-five quarterback in the National Football League,” Theismann said of Prescott. “You’re a good football player. You have the potential to be better, but what have you done?”

1. You are not a top 5 QB
2. You are a good football player
3. You have the potential to be even better
4. You haven't won anything

All of those 4 things are 100% true and I don't see any of them as an insult at all. If I were ANY of these older QB's I would be looking at what these punks make now and be pissed and jealous as well.

None of these guys is worth anything close to what they are making.

Dak, Zeke and Cooper weren’t worth the money and neither are you. Force yourself out and go to another team. Let Dalton be hated here.

81.4m (paid out in 1 year) versus 105 (paid out over 3) isn't that meaningful.

Getting another 200M deal in 4 years is a very big deal.

Where are you getting 81.4 million? That would kill our salary cap?

LOL. Ya, Dak is SO concerned what Joe blow says.

Well. Sad to say.. But he’s right.

I'm done with Dak, 20+ million out of work, people just trying to keep food on the table, and he has turned down millions, screw him

People trying to put food on table has been the norm even before this epidemic.

While I agree with Theismann, who the hell really cares what he thinks?

I for one do. Why wouldn't you want to respect the opinion of a former NFL QB like Theismann?

This is a tragically bad take for Theisman who knows first hand one play could end your career and effect how you walk the rest of your life.

Maybe LT gave give me CTE as well....

One bad contract can sink the entire TEAM. As a Cowboys fan first, and a Dak fan much much further down the line, the Cowboys need to do what's best for the team, for the present and the future. If Dak breaks his leg like Theismann and never plays again, the Cowboys are still on the hook for his guaranteed money. Excuse me if I don't worry about how he makes due with the millions he'll have already made.

This supports Theismann's opinion.

Simply put: one of my favorite posters. Just straight shooting all the time, although you use the word Horrid too much. Not in the manner of why it's used, but that variety is certainly called for.

Agreed in all points. Oh the horror!!!

I'd tell Thiesmann the same thing I told our kids when their One Act Play began.

"Break a leg."

Theisman shouldn't stick his nose in Cowboys business.

Let's sing Happy Birthday to him, the Cowboy way!

That's why he tell Dak to take the money. The Cowboys are not low balling him.
