Not talking about me but a guy playing QB in the NFL where the money is being thrown around like candy.If someone handed you 31 million for 1 year of work how upset would you be? especially since you were making 4 rd peanuts for 4 years? I understand players want the security of a longer term deal but 31 mill, Dak is not hurting. I would think Jerry is a bit more frustrated not being able to get Dak signed thus far.
That’s a bs statement. You know as well the rest of us that if Jerry wants Dak, then Dak will be a Cowboy...Well, it is the Cowboy's
So the chance of this thing imploding, is slightly weighed 51% to 49%
So were we, 25 years ago.They were hopeful 2 years ago too.

I'm "hopeful" that a reasonable deal is agreed to.
I believe Jerry will let Dak walk before he signs him to a terrible contract like he did Zeke, Jaylon, and Tank. I think any reasonable fan can see that Dak is just not at a level that can elevate this team to where it needs to go without a lot of help around him. We saw what he looked like pre Cooper, we saw what he looked like last year going 8-8 and only beating 1 team (A bad Eagles team early in the season) that made the playoffs, and we saw how he looked against the two good defenses he played this year (Rams and Giants). Yeah, he was putting up a lot of yards this year (minus the Rams and Giants game), but that is because we had to pass the ball from about the 2nd quarter on to even have a chance because of our historically bad defense. That defense will continue to be bad if we are handcuffed by another bad contract.
I believe we can win with Dak. I do not believe Dak will ever be good enough to win without a lot of help around him. I think Dak is more of an Aikman type. We can win with elite tools around him, but he will never be good enough to carry a team. Signing him to a 40+ million dollar contract eliminates our chances of putting the pieces around him that he needs to succeed. Also, all of this coming off an injury that we have no idea how it will affect him both mentally and physically.
Exactly. Everyone on the get rid of Dak train says we can draft a QB. Yet we cant draft a defense if we pay Dak? I dont get it. lolI hate this reasoning. What has Maholmes done with out good receivers? What has Watson done without a good team. Daks play has been the reason for 2 losses that I remember and even then it wasnt all on him. (Patriots and Eagles 2 season ago). How does a QB elevate a defense that gives up 38 pts a game when you are putting up 35. I also disagree with the defense will have to be bad. Trade back get 2 additional picks. Trade Gallup now, maybe get a 2 and a 4. Draft defense heavy. CB, Safety, OT, LB, CB, DT, WR along with a few mid to upper tier front 7 free agents.
Martin, Tyron, Collins all should be back and the line should be fine. Start freeing up money next year by dealing with Zeke and possibly Amari. This team can be a good team immediately.

get in line, pal!I’m hopeful Margot Robbie comes to her senses and we live happily ever after.

More productive = the Joneses are coming around.More productive. That is an interesting tidbit. Too bad Jane has been late to pretty much everything lately. Feel bad for her.
Can we please stop comparing Dak to all time greats....This is such a load of crap. Name one hall of fame qb who didn't have multiple Amari Coopers on his team. Montana had Jerry Freaking Rice, Clark, Craig, Tom Brady has had Moss, Welker, Brown, Gronk etc etc. Elway had the three amigos, Aikman had the triplets, Marino had Duper and Clayton. Mahomes has all-pro Tyreke Hill and all-pro Kelce. Your post is pure all natural crapola.
Yep.. about 20 months. The closer we get to March 9th the less I feel we get a deal. Which means we’ll tag him and this is last year with Dak.This isn't really a case of beginning negotiations. They've been talking for years now.
