Video: Andy Dalton expects to compete to be the Cowboys’ starter if Dak Prescott holds out

[Hadenough]

Maybe.

This is what pisses me off! He should be competing for the starting job regardless of if Dak is signed of not. I hate the idea of players not having to compete for their job year in and year out.

If Dak holds out I’ll bring in Cam for a physical. If healthy sign him. Then it’ll be a competition.

 

[Buzzbait]

Dak's not going to hold out.

We really need one super thread for Dak contract related posts....

Wouldn’t it take forever to load?

The concept of MM needs to win a superbowl immediately is ridiculous. JG didn’t get fired because of last year. It was after a decade of mediocrity. My hope and expectation is to see a team that shows up every week. Has a 500 or better record vs winning teams. I will be judging MM on his 5 years. Get them to 2-3 championship games and win a superbowl and it was a great move. More than that is gravy.

"IF"?! The way France has been playing hardball, there's absolutely no doubt Prescott will hold out.

If he holds out beyond July 15th then I hope he just stays out. I'm getting sick and tired of his drama.

 

[Diehardblues]

Well yea, like who would he be contending with if Dak isn’t there. Lol

 

[Redball Express]

Dak's not going to hold out.

I believe in essence he is holding out.

He I believe is not attending the online work.

What's that.?

I do not see him with a note from his mommy saying he is too sick to play.

And yes, I know she has passed away.

 

[Trendnet]

Maybe.

It'll be interesting to see what Dalton can do with some real coaching.

 

[conner01]

Kind of a stupid argument.

If Dak holds out, I sure as heck expect Dalton to compete for the starters job.

I mean, who's his competition??? Clayton Thorson or Ben DiNucci?

Ben the man

You can’t hold out if you aren’t under contract

We really need one super thread for Dak contract related posts....

And also a Dak Haters forum so they can all be miserable together and not pollute the rest of the board with their misery.

 

[Rockport]

That's what I mean. When theres a week left then we can have a thread again. I know offseasons suck and the only thing to look forward to is the draft and the draft is unwatchedable but geez. Enough with dak already.

That's just about all @Redball Express posts.

Dak Prescott has zero reason to hold out past July 15th.

He isn’t turning down 30 million dollars and ruining his chances on a long term deal.

 

[SteveTheCowboy]

If Dak holds out I will start looking forward to the 2021 draft.

You should probably just give up your Cowboys Fandom!

I agree. Money be dammed. This fuels the fires and gives whatever starter some pride.

So Dalton has been held back by coaching all these years?

That's not realistic. The Cowboys can't pay Dak $30-35 million a year just to compete for the job. And that's not just a Dallas thing. It's not common for starting QBs in the NFL to be subject to an open competition for the job every year unless the team has little or no confidence in that QB. Realistically, teams cannot pay the kind of money QBs get paid these days just for that QB to compete for the job. To much money and salary cap space is used up on starting QBs for that.

Dak threads need to be banned until at least July 7th unless he signs.

At this point, I think no mention of his name until June 2021 no matter what happens.
