Aquiring Russell Wilson would electrify the Cowboys fan base

[Adreme]

And for the first time in 17 years, a Super Bowl would be possible. Wilson is a proven winner, and doesn't choke. Jerry could re-instill confidence from the fan base and turn heads across the NFL.
I don't know the in's and outs of free agency, but if Jerry could get Wilson, the Cowboys would be back in business.

Dude is completely washed up and has been for a couple years now. If you watched the Broncos he looked like he was one of the 5 worst QBs in football (of the starting QBs). Dude has been awful for 2 years now and was trending downward his last year in Seattle. There is nothing in the tank and it just emphasizes more how winning is a team stat not an individual one. When he was "winning" it was because the Legion of Boom was basically one of the most dominant units in league history and the offense was the Marshawn Lynch show. Wilson simply is not what he once was and what he once was would still not have been an upgrade.

STOP

I’d honestly rather have Cousins or Baker mayfield at a reasonable price.

I mean neither one is going to sign for less than 40.

The Malcolm Butler int... was that not a choke job?

No. Wilson got the Seahawks to the Super Bowl, and the Patriots had rehearsed defending that play the night before.

The QB position does not tackle RBs from the opposing team, and pressure opposing QBs up the middle.

Alrighty then...

No,

The QB position does not tackle RBs from the opposing team, and pressure opposing QBs up the middle.

But he keeps his offense on the field and helps his team by producing points and at least changing field position.

Every time I think you are beyond the craziness of your previous posting genius you amaze me with yet another gem

Acquiring Wilson would tick off the fan base. At least those with reasonable football acumen

 

[leeblair]

Electrify no

Give false hope yes

Waste of money

So he would at least be as good as what we've had for the past eight years.

Russell Wilson isnt the player he use to be. But that being said I still think he would give Dallas a better chance in a playoff game than Dak. Dak turns into a pumpkin when he faces a good team.

 

[rnr_honeybadger]

Wilson can't overcome the glaring deficiencies of the Cowboys.

 

[Diehardblues]

It would be interesting to see what Russell could do on a better team or at least fringe playoff team.

It was a huge risk for Denver who wasn’t fringe playoff caliber or just a QB away. Someone like Pittsburgh might be better suited.

I’m not sure he’s an upgrade here. Typical for some fans to think cause he was on a championship team that elevates into some kind of Elite category . He was or is a good Franchise QB but not Elite.

According to the OP (and others), that only happens if the QB properly motivates them. It’s NOT their jobs to keep the team in the game if the offense is struggling. Now, they DID do that in SF in last year’s playoff game. But, too many times we’ve seen this D get punched in the mouth on the opening drive against the better teams (I mean the Cards even punched them in the mouth the very first drive), and not necessarily recover from that. But, again, that’s apparently all on Dak…

 

[CowboyChris]

Wilson would cost less than Cooper or Lance, and a better QB, just throwing that at there.

 

[JeffInDC]

No,

But he keeps his offense on the field and helps his team by producing points and at least changing field position.

Ok then…what exactly is the job of the defense in your opinion? Because, it sounds like you’re giving them quite a few excuses for NOT doing their jobs. I mean, wasn’t this supposed to be the best Cowboys D in decades?

Pass, we need OL, DL, LB, RB & WR help.

Come on. Wilson is not even remotely “electrifying” at this point in his career. There’s little interest in him even from teams with no QB.
