It is a lot more complicated than looking at a website, especially when the websites aren't always updated....it can just look like a wall of numbers

OTC is not accurate for the Cowboys
Spotrac is more thorough and timely....even though OTC is accusing them of stealing data

No. It really isn't complicated.

Quite clearly most Cowboy deals are structured so that in year three there ends up a break point where the dead money and savings nearly match. That means cut and keep cost the same.

Similarly, when we extended a guy and everyone says "did he deserve that?," then it is generally a carrot for future salaries he won't see.

Simple pattern recognition and less "ooh, I don't get math."

Peyton was horrible towards the end and he knew it. Carson Palmer is 36 and numbers are down quite a bit this year.

Brady is likely artificially inflated by some foreign substance (under-inflated of course).

How long before the Brees blows?
Weak takedown...those are 4 top QBs playing very well at 36 and up

I bet you don't understand it as well as you think you do

So Micky was correct when he yelled at that caller.

I'll never admit it to him.

Better choice is trade Sanchez. Need to re-brand him first so let him run zone read behind our OL in 4th quarter after we hang 50 on Cleveland.

Have him score couple of TDs which should wash some of the stink off him. Cowboys are winning and everyone wants a piece of the winners.
