Guess you don’t get it, as for miserable not I no reason to get upset over what you can’t control, something you should learn, you unfortunately come unhinged at the littlest difference of opinion. We get it you love Daks play, his stats, you love posting videos about his greatness and insulting others intelligence when they don’t agree with your view point even when they may be valid.
Point proven you sir are a troll, have a nice day
The state of the NFL these days, all QBs need to do is put up numbers and get you to the playoffs consistently. Justin Herbert got paid and doesn’t win. I mentioned Lamar Jackson he’s had his playoff struggles but reset the market. The Jaguars are going to have to pay Trevor Lawrence and he doesn’t even put up big numbers or win many games. These QBs are getting paid based off their regular season performances. Jackson and Herbert are a combined 2-5 in the playoffs but are in the top four highest paid QBs.
Every team, every fan wants to have the QB1, so KC fans can rejoice that they do.
Honestly, the QB salary situation is making me lose interest in the league more and more every year. That fact that a title strategy has evolved over the last 8-10 years known as the “Rookie Window” that is, at this moment in today’s NFL, a viable strategy for winning a title makes me irritated as hell. In a sane world, teams shouldn’t be trying to hammer home a title and round out their rosters with FA studs while they are paying a rookie QB on the cheap during a three year window BEFORE they have to over pay the rookie QB at the end of his initial contract and subsequently get worse overall. It’s monumentally frustrating from a fan’s perspective. I can’t imagine the frustration it evokes in a NFL GM.
Don't be ridiculous...
This is very true. Unfortunately. If you can't find a Mahomes or Burrow, guys that can win with less, then you better find a Purdy and hurry up and lock and load for a title run because once they get that bag, their lack of talent and ability is going to start to shine through as the layers of talent are stripped away in free agency.
Actually, there is one of the long time regulars who recently said they now hate the team and will be rooting for losses every week just so they can come back to the Zone on Monday rub everyone’s nose in it.
It’s obvious your comments about Dak are hate driven. You may be willing to move on and take your chances but I’m not and I know there’s plenty of fans who feel the same way. I’m not moving on until I find a better option. To say he’s washed is ridiculous. He had a terrific 2023 season and came in second for MVP. Yes, he played bad in the playoffs but so did the entire team. I’ve said it many times, and I’ll say it again if it was up to some of you, the Cowboys would never make it to the playoffs because they wouldn’t have a viable QB. As for Lance, it’s laughable that you would be willing to go with him.
He flamed out in San Francisco and hasn’t proven he can win. He’s going to have to beat out Cooper Rush to become the backup. Some of you would take any QB but Dak.
If those numbers are true (and Im certainly not saying they aren't.. Im just too lazy to check)
The high rising QB salaries will never make me lose interest. Inflation is just part of life. As time goes on the league will continue to make adjustments to help teams pay these QB salaries. They’re going to have to come up with a strategy to combat it because they take up so much cap space.
It was everyone else's fault. Stop being mean to Dak, he's gonna be a dad or something.
Well, there is an obvious solution to the problem. Any QB not on a rookie contract could have a portion, or maybe even their entire salary, exempted from the cap. This is only going to get worse without some intervention being done by the league and the league isn’t going to do anything until it starts to affect the bottom line. I might be in a small minority, at the moment, of traditionally rabid NFL fans who are getting frustrated with the current state of things, but the more fans see their teams take it on the chin to grossly over pay an average to above average or good QB because of a hyper-inflated QB market, I don’t think I will be in a small minority for long.
Too bad you Romolovers complained to YouTube and had them delete the 5+ videos of Romo's chokeful moments throughout his career. Those videos would have shut you up once and for all.
The big problem it’s hard finding a real consistent QB. It’s the most important position in football and QBs have to do so much more than in the past. The bust rate on QBs is very high so sometimes you have to settle for good because finding a great QB is extremely difficult. It’s a pass happy league and QBs are using their legs more than decades ago. KC would be nothing without Mahomes. You have no choice but to pay QBs. If you let a good QB walk like Washington did with Cousins you’ll be burning high draft picks and missing the playoffs until you find a capable replacement. It’s been seven years since Washington moved on from Cousins and they’re still looking for an answer. Teams don’t want to leave themselves in that position of always having to look for a QB.
