Dak at a minimum salary is causing headaches for this team, regardless of whatever you think about him. Can't wait to see what happens when the same performance happens at 40 mil.
I'll give it shot. What "headaches" are Dak costing this team? Because the headaches last season was coaching, defense and special teams. So which one was Dak apart of?

Not all that many. Most of the over glorifying came after he retired.
Well since I wasn’t on this site consistently at that time I’ll defer to you but I guarantee I heard plenty of them while he was playing at the ranch and we can just leave it at that

Now see this is a example of a troll. And if you want to see the rest of the trolls on this site? Just pay attention at who likes his post. Its the same 5 or 6 people lol. Just take notice. I've been on to his game and others. All you can do is laugh and keep it moving.
Yeah, me and you don't always agree, and we go at each other, but it's a respectable argument/discussion. I think you've even changed my mind a few times. I'm always open for new thoughts and ideas.

The meltdown from the homers is going to be hilarious....


Dak will become the most hated Cowboy amongst this fanbase in about 2 years after the contract is signed, and Im going to love it :laugh:

The next season they went 13-3 with a bye into the playoffs. They had a sound team. A super bowl was more than just a dream.
They got better and older. There were a lot of young players who played lights out in 2007. Romo got better, Ware got better, Ratliff, Barber, etc.

Romo's contract did help. He renegotiated to help Jerry w/ the cap.

He did do that but to me, that was more of an immediate cap relief but a prolonged continuation of the actual problem. It kept us out of an out of control dumpster fire but the dumpster was still on fire, to many times. LOL......

And the feelings is mutual. We don't agree. Who wants to sit up on a site and agree with people all day? We debate/discuss and it never resorts to name calling.

People assume that's what I do because they see me go at the other trolls but mind you there's guys here who resort to childish-like attacks and I give them exactly what they want. I know who the trolls on this site are and who aren't.

Oh, absolutely. Contracts were a problem in general. I just don't believe Romo's contract was ever a problem.

When he signed for a huge contract, people don't remember the details. That was actually a renegotiation that Jerry had to have to get under the cap. Plus, it included years where his salary was really low, so even though the spewers were yelling that, Romo's contract wasn't that bad.

When someone doesn't agree w/ me, great, now give me logical backing for your ideas. If they don't make sense, I'll say so.

A valid question. While Dak didn't carry the whole team on his back, I don't know what headaches he's caused. I do think 40 mil is too much, and will deprive him of some of what he needs around him to help the team.

yes, I am (and was) acutely aware of that.

but let's no lay it on Tony entirely ... the 2011-2013 defenses were among the worst in team and NFL history

I don't think it helped. As to the advantage of the years his salary was "low", I'm also not so sure about that. I mean, yeah there were years he was reasonable perhaps but there were also years where he didn't play and got paid a lot of money for no production. There were years we just carried his cap hit forward after he retired. I mean, I don't think it was all that much of a great deal for us. But it's done now and I hope that we have learned from the past.

Why would you love something like that?

Like you guys wonder why I call y'all trolls? You're pure existent and excitement and joy from the Cowboys being bad lol. Its laughable.
Because Dak homers are the most nauseating fanbase of all time...

Its a forgone conclusion that him and that contract is going to sink this team, and I will be proven right, once again....

Aye....he just has to keep getting better like he has been. He does that and the 30-35 million dollar investment will be worth it. If he gets worse? That will be a problem.

Not at all. Not laying it all on him at all.

So this is about your ego? I mean I already know what it is about. Its about feeding your ego and praying to be right. Like I said above, I been knowing you are a troll. You root for the Cowboys to do bad. This is what a NFL 2020 fan does. Trolling. Popularized by fans like you who get to hide under their screen name.

If everyone had to use their government name and picture on this site I guarantee you we wouldn't have the trolls we do. Easy to act a fool behind a anonymous image of Dez Bryant and the name of a character portrayed by Jamie Foxx. Funny you have the name Willie Beamen since that's exactly what happened to Tony Romo. He got Willie Beamen'd off the team.

When you call me that? :laugh:




What was I wrong about lol? And how are you proven right?

I don't take none of your posts seriously enough to get bad. I'm not even trying to be funny but I honestly feel like you're a troll and I know a lot of what you dudes say you don't believe. Y'all don't have the heart to say it in public or in real life lol.
You are wrong about just about everything.

Im right about everything..


You are sensitive because there are folks that hate Dak as the QB of this team. Thats not me being a troll, thats a you-thing.
