Signed by Cowboys Cowboys sign QB Andy Dalton

[Diehardblues]

If Dak were gone you would be the one with nothing to do here since you have no abilty to post on any other topic. You really can’t even post rationally on Dak, you just think you can so you try.

And just like 10 years with Romo, these type are only effective cause it causes a stir from others. Ignoring them is only effective deterrence.

Dalton > Hurts

Eagles cant catcha break....

Howie Roseman is now selling it as having a back-up for 4 years in the cheap. Cheaper than signing vets but a big gamble assuming he can play.

Dalton is a good signing for the Cowboys. Puts pressure on the Dak camp and he’s a better QB than many give credit for.

You got something against wobbly balls thrown over or behind the receiver ?

Been seeing it for 4 years and enough is enough. Dalton could do pretty well with the new coaching and offensive firepower we have this season.
Time for Dak to Pack!

 

[leeblair]

Lol I think your the one choking. Dak has proven time and time again he’s clutch. What are you on about?

Clutch?
You must be watching a different team than the rest of us.
Dak choked against Minnesota, Buffalo, Chicago, and the Eagles- all with the season on the line.
Get real.

Can they just rename this thread “Dak Haters Unite!”?

Honestly, some of you guys are embarrassing.

 

[Diehardblues]

You have to admit, Jerry and the Boys just sucked all the air out of the leverage tank. This may take the negotiation off the rails.

On the contrary , I think this gives them more leverage with a veteran starter signed.

The best leverage is appearing to be able to move on without him.

Had Dak just accepted a contract around 30 mil this wouldnt of even been a discussion. Some of the fans would of still been annoyed with his play but overall this would be over. Even though Dak, Jerry and Stephen have tried to keep this out of the media, this has been dragging on so long and made many people angry with Dak and the way they view him. I think he has gone past the point of no return. This length of contract talk has been a indirect smoke screen that they are feeding the media. We all know its about the money. There is no question Dak deserves to be paid but he needs to come down off his high horse and get back to reality. This is not the agents fault because he works for Dak. At any point Dak could just call his agent and say get me signed asap!!

 

[CowboyRoy]

Absolutely love this signing. Dalton is a solid QB that can definitely win games, especially in our offense. This puts pressure on Dak to move his butt and we now have a Dinucci as the 3rd QB to groom.

Cant say enough how much a REAL coach has done for this team. He is knocking out all our weaknesses one by one. Incredible.

Dalton’s playoff numbers, 55.7% completion, 1 TD, 6 INT, 3.9 Y/A, 57.8 rating in 4 games all WC losses.

This is during Dalton’s prime with All Pro receivers AJ Green, Pro Bowler Gresham, thousand yard rushers Benson and Hill....

Dak’s playoff numbers 64.1% completion 5TD, 2 INT, 7.7 Y/A, 95.7 rating, 1-2 record.

One and done if Cowboys must depend on Dalton for a playoff game.

EXactly!!

On the contrary , I think this gives them more leverage with a veteran starter signed.

I'd still offer Dak 20 million though.

 

[CowboyRoy]

Underrated and not nearly as bad as people think..


He did well in Cincy and got Dak Prescott like results in a environment not nearly as optimal as Dak’s..

Dalton is definitely underrated. Very solid QB. If given time to throw he can definitely lead the team.

I see this as breathing room for the Cowboys. Now they can live with waiting on Dak to play on the tag if they can't come to an agreement. It doesn't bode well for Rush if the rookie looks good in camp.

Ummm. So does he not get credit for OT win against philly? Or how about winning in both lambeau and Pittsburgh as a rookie? Or how about we go back just a year when he put the team on his back against Seattle in the playoffs. Some of you people make me actually disgusted to be a cowboy fan. You will stop at nothing to knock the guy but forget all the times he has proven you wrong. And done it as one of the most underpaid players in the league to boot. Lol. Go kick rocks friend.

 

[sean10mm]

As a football move signing a solid backup QB for that money is a B+ move.

As a way to stir scat on this message board it's an A+++.

The idea that Dalton is a franchise savior in the wings is intensely stupid. Half this forum would try to argue that Nathan Peterman is better than Dak Prescott because this place is full of terminal psychotics.

Dalton exhibited all the sins of Dak and more on the Bengals, including many Bengals teams with good defenses and Pro Bowlers on offense.

 

[Hawkeye19]

Make no mistake: Jerry and Stephen just sent a message to Dak and his agent. The Cowboys are preparing to roll without Dak if needed.
I doubt that negotiations will be pursued much after this point.

I guarantee you next week when asked about the Dalton signing, Stephen will continue to say the same thing he has always said: Dak is our guy and we want him here long term blah blah blah... Andy is a solid vet QB and we wanted to improve our roster etc...

Dalton is an EXCELLENT choice for backup QB. Much better than Rush and can hopefully play well enough for us to win a few games should Dak get hurt... but if you are saying that the FO is sending a “sign the deal or we are giving the keys to Andy” message to Dak, I think that is mistaken.

Yep. Great move by Cowboys.

Rush is out. But who cares. At best he’ll be on practice squad.

 

[Pola_pe_a]

Dez doesn’t like it.

I would think this means Cooper Rush is out. They're not keeping him around as a 3rd QB. He's had years.

I think Dak is going. Cooper stays.

 

[Diehardblues]

I'd still offer Dak 20 million though.

We already offered him allegedly 105 million guaranteed. About 33 million a year which would place him top 5 in the league. That’s a good offer.

I hope we hold firm and don’t cave in like we usually do. Dak shouldn’t be the top paid QB in the league.
