Wrong. My life choices aren't about gaining wealth.

Lol. (credit to the late Chris Farley)

Brady has more money than God himself and could play for league minimum and it wouldn't affect his life in any way. So yes, he got respect money. As far as John Elway goes, I consider him one of the best QBs to ever play the game. I have no idea what that has to do with Dak Prescott.
Its just tough to evaluate what qb's should get because they factor into so many more things than other position. They are on the field more than anyone, they are the face of the franchise, they will be with you team longer than anyone.....I agree with you though.
Well Todd Archer reported the offer of 16M so there must be something to it.Did that ever go beyond the rumor stage?
The Chief's did pay him that. In hindsight it didn't turn out well for them, at least so far but it's not like he had no pedigree and was thought of as unproven.
When the FO cares again I'll expect the players too.What bothers all of us is their contract demands tell us about their desire for a championship, or lack thereof.
They just want to grab every dollar even though they know there is a cap limit.
They know their demands really hurt the chances of a championship because there is a limit to what tricks can be played with the cap.
top nba players do this.
they sacrifice some salary in order to win the championship.
they just did it in brooklyn.
lebron did it in miami with wade and bosh.
beyond a certain point, it is just ego and greed.
WrongThe OL players took less - that is the comparison to be made.
putty, the problem is leaving any money on the table does not assure the team of doing anything more than paying other players, doesn't mean they're the right players.What bothers all of us is their contract demands tell us about their desire for a championship, or lack thereof.

This is a stupid thread.
If Zeke became the highest paid RB in nfl history today he would still make less than guys named Xavien Howard and Sammy Watkins.
He would make less than Jason Pierre Paul.
Now we have these old dudes attacking our own players because the players
want to paid at the level of their production and talent.
They have terrific options with Dak right now.You do if you've not left yourself any options.
smith, freddy and zack didn't come cheap. but they all did as dak is doing. show up. don't make any noise. and let the agent do his job. zeke is the only one to not show up and play. but in his defense, rb's don't typically play as long as the other positions. he feels the need to get it while he can.Wrong

NBA players also have fully guaranteed contracts.
Top NBA players also have on average longer careers than NFL players and also make a lot more money than NFL players. Other than quarterbacks.
It’s an apples to oranges comparison.
Yeah that's crap. Like Dak said, the NBA guys have guaranteed contracts. And their "sacrifice" is 2 or 3 million dollars. Lebron did it ONCE and has been highly paid ever since. Brooklyn just made KD the second highest paid player in the NBA so I'm not sure why you think he or KD sacrificed some salary. And the little they saved they gave it to......Deandre Jordan smh. That's exactly why players shouldn't take pay cuts. You save them a few million and they give it to someone who shouldn't get it.top nba players do this.

there are guaranteed $ in nfl contracts also
I normally don't let myself get involved in these conversations for one simple reason. I don't care what's in anyone elses bank account.so u agreed then that the players dont care
