That’s untrue. Everyone on this board was THRILLED with Dak his rookie year. He played simply amazing that year. He has regressed since then, when we all expected that he’d improve. That’s what has soured half the fan base on Dak.

Break everything down to an emotional disgust, and then counter everything upon that? That is the smart path?

Didnt he just have a commercial played on every draft break? I think you wish he was losing but the guy keeps winning and laughing at comments and people like you.
At least he was talking an angle, and valid. This is attacking a legitimate point, and insulting around that...woohoo!

Being that he just lost his brother this past Friday.......I think he's more focused on that then about this team or his contract right now. But who knows......He has until July 15th....not sure why he wouldn't wait until then to resolve this.

I suspect it's even harder than just losing his brother. His brother was the one "tasked" by their mother to keep the family together after she passed....so it's probably even harder on Dak.

The Dallas FO and many of Dak's fans aren't fully convinced that he's worth as much as he and his agent have been demanding. For that reason, a contract that should have been settled by now is causing many fans to lose at least some of their respect for what he and his agent are doing. I think it would be wise for Dak and his agent to show a willingness to compromise as much as the Cowboys have already. Dak's image has taken a hit throughout this contract squabble. That's not a healthy situation for him, imho. He needs to prove he's an elite QB before being paid like one. He has yet to do that.

Just read the linked article. OP took a positive article and turned it into a "Dak sux" thread. Peak Zone LOL.

Proof that bias has no boundary for foolhardy...no, the OP took elements that were building and even good for the upcoming season. With all normal actions by the NFL suspended...an actual point for discussion as well, but added for a comparative base. There are many new elements being combined right now. This includes roster additions, pointed out; schemes to be developed, and even a new coaching staff. All this screams the need for participation that now includes communication interactions. One would wish that a team's leader would at least participate in this. THAT is a mark against HIM.

Dak was offered what the very top QB's in the NFL are currently receiving. You offering that he hasn't already been offered a reasonable offer?

Either offer points of discussion instead of attempting to degrade actual discussion into a preppies stance of emotion and agenda. Offer a real discussion and explain why your pizzo, a hypothetical Dak, is fully justified and just playing the game. No, at this point, he is NOT playing the game.

The team needs to work through a world at conflict every where, and contribute to it's own growth, right now...

As to the OP, unlike your failed attempt to be relative, stands on it's on legs. It offers a discussion, and you offer insult instead.

Now, defend Dak Prescott on the basis already presented...

Dak's agent is setting his teeth into top of NFL as well as Cowboys' setting pay days...but he may be losing a locker room and group of supporting fans in the same stroke.

Brandt’s top three include the Saints’ pairing of Brees and Thomas, the Falcons’ connection of Matt Ryan and Julio Jones, and the Cardinals’ new duo of the exciting Kyler Murray and All-Pro DeAndre Hopkins.

Brandt then has Dallas...

4) Dak Prescott and Amari Cooper, Dallas Cowboys: The selection of Oklahoma receiver CeeDee Lamb with the 17th overall pick could have a positive impact on Cooper. If Lamb is able to develop quickly, Cooper could get more snaps in the slot, where he’ll be able to wreak havoc. Even if Lamb needs a bit of time, Cooper should still make the most of the contract extension to which he’s been signed, assuming he doesn’t have to deal with anything like the leg injuries that bothered him last year. Of course, this also presumes the franchise-tagged Prescott doesn’t hold out or miss time as he waits for a new contract.

Couple this with acquiring Cee Dee Lamb, a very pro Dak move, and Dallas has more than supported Dak in his position. This being the anti-Green Bay by the team during this draft.

Now, mix in what has been done along the depth for the offensive line, and his role has been in the middle of the franchise's bulls eye. They have done their due diligence and then some, including offering and negotiating in good faith, to reward that very player.

If he doesn't quickly gain a team oriented slant, and quit buying into his glory, instead of the team...he will end up losing a ton more, that what is pictured in front of his nose.

Dak, it's time to get your butt off it's high/holy air space, and back to team and Lombardi building!

lol the first thread I came across in when I visited this forum in 2016 was one where the OP wanted Dak to get concussion so that Romo could get his job back...there were so many anti-Dak threads...for example this one is probably one of the most mild https://cowboyszone.com/threads/gotta-love-dak-but-seriously.361333/ and that was on NOVEMBER

Only the haters in the locker room will be mad at dak
What does hate have to do with solving a problem in the middle of crisis?

The hate in the locker room will apply to who ever isn't FULLY contributing. This needs to be improved, right now...you saying that it shouldn't?

Think this helps the team? Who exactly does it help...Dak not reaching an agreement?

Get this as well, one can hold Dak responsible for this part of his actions, and be a valid fan as well. I like Dak, but I don't agree with what he is doing on the contract negotiations at this point.

This early in the season...there ISN'T a lockerroom.

Sometimes there is an actual discussion presented...and not just pro and anti antagonists to butt heads. Try picking up topic and leave the derailing to threads presented to ***** about disgust. More is offered here, on football, than a burn barrel bunch for entertainment.

Try talking topic some...

If the Cowboys would simply give Dak his 4 year contract...he would have signed it last year. Nobody trying to do a 4 plus year contract.

I wouldn't be at all surprised if that's what happens, when all is said and done.

In the meantime, Dak and his agent would do well to forget about $40 million.

FALSE NARRATIVE!! How are we to have substantive discussion about Dak when you create a negative context surrounding Dak's agent (CAA) and Dak?
Then you somehow project that Dak's agents (CAA) greed and Dak Contract will lose the lockeroom.
This is ridiculous...:lmao2:

CAA job is to get their clients the best deal. Did you have a problem with Romo's Contract in the past?...CAA is Romo's agent too.

By all accounts every player has kept out of Dak's Contract negotiations. Players don't get involved in teammates Contract negotiations. It's a code in the lockeroom. Yet somehow you've conjured up possible Dak resentment forth coming....

Brandt’s top three include the Saints’ pairing of Brees and Thomas, the Falcons’ connection of Matt Ryan and Julio Jones, and the Cardinals’ new duo of the exciting Kyler Murray and All-Pro DeAndre Hopkins.

You present a false narrative...

Where was all this tough talk when Dak was making $2M last season?
:huh:
