If you have to ask then you will never get it. You are a Eagirl fan on a Cowboys board posing as a Cowboy fan. No one is buying your crap but keep trying to sell it.

No. I am a legitimate fan of BOTH teams. What is hard to understand about that?

mariotta and winston lol. neither are all time busts because theyre still starting but neither has been signed and nobody will be shocked when they dont get resigned or sign small stop gap deals.

I disagree. Winston is more questionable due to his off the field antics but Titans are bringing back Mariotta. And if Bruce Arians works his magic Winston will be back with Tampa too.

I don't get why not? I am living proof. I root for both the Cowboys and the Eagles. Obviously when they play each other I root for whichever team I think has a better chance to go all the way at the moment or, if one has already clinched maybe I'll root for the other so both teams can have a chance in the playoffs.

Needless to say the first weekend this past January was a great one for me, and the second one was downright awful.

Both teams will be 2-3 win teams this year and basically redoing the top of the 2015 draft next year.

He was great after Cooper arrived. No need to replace.

I'm hoping he reconsiders and takes $30 mil and forgets that $34 mil proposal. I'll bet his agent put that bug in his ear. Anyway, I really doubt the FO would see fit to replace him. In that first preseason game, he seems to have improved, delivering the ball quicker and more on target. He'll surely get the chance to be tested more in the games to follow. One series isn't quite enough to tell much, although, he looked good for what little we got to see.

It's not possible. That just means you're not a real Cowboy's fan. And no matter what you say we will never see you as one of us. You're in two team purgatory.

Fall. Eagles. Fall.

First, we don't know what the guaranteed money or how many years, so we don't know if he should take the deal or not. But even if he were to get a highest paid contract he still would still only average out to about $29 million per year because he is only making around $2 million this year.

$36 million x 4 = $144 million. Add the $2 million and average it over five years the number is $29.2 million. Barely better than Cousins and Garoppollo.

Before all the Prescott lovers come after me I don't think anybody's worth that kind of money just so we're upfront about that I have nothing to gain by hating him he is our quarterback but he's just not worth that money

Sorry but your point makes little sense. Why are the Cowboys worth 5 billion. Each team makes ~ 300 million in revenue from the TV deal alone.
There is so much money in owning a team it’s unbelievable.
I’m not even a Dak guy at all , but don’t muddy the discussion by your non related point.

And then there is the “I have no clue” crowd. Almost forgot about those.

Really as your the club's President..... :huh:

I’d turn it down if I were him too..

He should get 32.5 - more than Wentz..

Can't believe his agent thinks so. What is his selling point?

The "Market" hopefully its the fruit market as Dak ain't worth 1 penny over what a back-up QB makes.

I don't see a problem with that. What's wrong with me being a Cowboys and Eagles fan? My grandmother knew a lady and her family from New Hampshire, they were avid Yankees AND Red Sox fans. I don't see the problem.

Do you go on the Eagles board and claim to be a Cowboy Fan?

Unfortunately what our the other options? Pay him now, make it heavily incentive based and try to be able to get out of it in 2-3 years (likely 3 min)

Other contracts aren’t heavily incentive based, so it wouldn’t make sense for Dak to hold out if he was willing to accept a contract that is.

If he doesn't want $30 mil a year i would tell him to hit the road

birdwells1 · Aug 12, 2019

The problem with these rookie contracts is that the Cowboys should have won a sb by now and if that was the case could let's some guys walk.

zenmastersauce · Aug 12, 2019

The boys wont pay top tier and set the market so i dont know. They will let him play if this deal doesnt get done. I will say I am surprised at Dak though, yes he should get his money but didnt think he would push it to think level.

blueblood70 · Aug 12, 2019

Hes doing the FO a favor by turning it down, they likely let him go through most of the season without new contract and see how he plays if he wont sign for 30..if he doesnt shine big time they may just FT him, sign and bring in zeke and find way to get Amari signed..i do believe that thread more now then even that the 3 are colluding in some way because you can only FT one of them and all of them demanding new market contracts at the same time is forcing the FO hand..

Id pay zeke 15 befoe id give Dak over 30 sorry and if Amari wont take 17 im thinking id let him walk.. only way this blows up in all their faces is if the CBA goes into a lockout and we get an extra TT along with FT so sign Zeke tag the other 2 lol

man I dont want to be in those contract meetings , this is messy..

BigD_95 · Aug 12, 2019

Let him play out this season. He isnt a top 5 QB and he wants paid more than Wentz who is way better. Selfish is all I can think about.
