Are fans and Jerry "afraid" of life without Dak?

[Chasing6]

not making the playoffs or even getting close to winning a division ???

that's the reality,


that's ridiculous if you think this team is built to hide A spare average quarterback or RAW rookie? ?

you haven't been watching, they don't build these teams strong enough with a run game, offensive line, in the trenches, and with a shutdown defense to roll with an average quarterbacks...

not happening,

so you might wanna stop using the word playoffs and this place will have something to truly whine about ,when we're actually bad we're actually average, we actually have a bad quarterback, and a bad team..

it'll actually be real this time, instead of a bunch of nonsensical post about how it sucks to you being in the playoffs 5 out of the last eight years, because we keep losing in the playoffs..

well,

how about we never even make the playoffs for the next 5 to 10 years and we're the ones looking up at the top of the division when New York and Washington pass us that's the reality of not having a top quarterback in Dallas because there is not a strong enough team to go on some kind of run like you've seen some of these spare quarterbacks who get the Super bowls or win Super Bowls on these all in teams this is not an all in team...

Into Mr. dandy Don if you're not going to pay Prescott don't pay Parsons or lamb you gotta get rid of diggs, tank ,and Martin this is a real reboot.. Trade them ALL!!

you can't have it both ways, it would be dumb to sign all these dudes to big contracts and start over at quarterback, there's no one afraid of life without that we're saying why are we arguing about lambs contract well we should just say trade them all if you don't want Prescott we need to get rid of all the prospects we can and get as much draft picks as we can..

So sign Prescott, then get these other deals done ,and let's try one last time before we get bad or get rid of them all that's my reboot, you cannot run down the middle with this and have an overpriced bunch of skill players with no quarterback. We're seeing that in other teams look at the Cleveland Browns they haven't even won a damn division since I believe it was 1986, I thought it was 1996 but either way we're worried about how we're getting knocked out in the first or second round of the playoffs it can be far worse we're talking about real misery...

This isn't about being scared this is about being a realist we have a quarterback good enough to keep us contending for another three years or so so you sign other players if not get ready for our huge drop off.

As a fan I'd rather be losing in the playoffs than being a true laughingstock, not the type of aour exaggerated drama Queens fan base around here say we're looked at with a clown ownership who's made us a top six team, that keeps getting prime time games, when our game start getting blacked out we start not being relative at all like really not relative, not fake not relative, like people around here keep saying..


There is no middle ground if you get rid of Prescott look at the next two drafts they're hard really any quarterbacks and you can't really pay another quarterback because remember you don't want to overpay a quarterback that means you need to start completely over, drop a complete bomb on this, and we're going to be bad for a long time who knows three years, five years, or 10 years??!!

we're going to be bad I've seen it with other teams they cannot find a quarterback and no matter what they do with the rest of their team they're below 500 most of the time..

I don't want our season to be over after week 10 when Parsons stops making an impact. I would rather have an opportunity to win or lose in the wildcard game.

I'm not afraid of life without Dak, I'm afraid of life with Jerry.

If it's not a complete embarrassment at home against an inferior team...I'm in!

I'd rather skip it if the team don't wanna play.

Hell, yes, I’m afraid of life without Dak, just as I was afraid of life without Romo. Both are/were very good QBs who are fun to watch and put points on the board. The fear isn’t just the absence of Dak but the absence of any QB or plan for one. You have to go all the way back to Aikman’s entry and tenure in the NFL with Jimmy Johnson to remember when this team valued the backup QB and planning for the future.

I am a Dak fan, but players get replaced, and if Jerry had planned for this, I could live with letting Dak play out his contract and having him move on (though giving him the no trade, no tag clauses basically said you were committed to another contract or that you are stupid). Jerry has not groomed a young QB, nor has he accumulated draft picks to maneuver for a QB.

Yes, I’m afraid of going 5-6 years or more hoping we strike gold late in the draft or living with journeyman QBs like Sam Darnold.
I hate losing in the playoffs, but I hate being irrelevant in our division even more. Jerry has not only mishandled Dak’s contracts since his rookie deal, but he has also done nothing to prepare for the future so many fans are clamoring for.

All good comments here.
The miserable let down in playoffs takes some of the shine off the regular season funsies.

It seems to me that fans and Jerry are afraid of Dak not being here lol.
We cant go on without Dak !!

Well you can, they can, it just has a unknown factor to it.
You cant tie yourself to a player, and pay enormous contracts just because of fear of not having him.

NFL teams have to take risks if you want a championship team, it is part of the process.
It may turn out bad or great, but you still have to take the risks. If not they will just stay the same and that is kind of boring.

The only problem I see is that the jones boys might go for deions kid lol , then we are stuck with him for years till jerry finally realizes it wont lead
to a SB.

The main reason they need to move on from dak, is the $ to keep him here is too high to put a good team around him, and without a good
team to help him they may never even get past the div round.
This year it is possible they dont make the playoffs.

But at some point they will have to move on from Dak it has to happen eventually, so why not now and stir the pot , make things more interesting.

When you listen to some here you could get the feeling that their legs are shivering when they think about dak could leave.

Fear ist not a good advice.

And hope is not a strategy.
