Yeah I’m not taking that bait.
Why rehash all the gory details. It's a horrible deal for the team. I don't get why you are doing this.
.....whilst Jerry undoubtably panicked (fearing the cost if Dak hit FA), the actual final figure (AND length of contract AND NTC) was down to France pushing Jerry. Jerry should be ashamed of the contract and if we had an independent media he'd be forced to answer for that deal..... a deal which he overpaid/got played on EVERY concession.
Because we should face up to our mistakes (especially when Jerry's potentially going to repeat the "assume the position" routine with Micah).Why rehash all the gory details. It's a horrible deal for the team. I don't get why you are doing this.
Dak wouldn't take a long term deal like Mahomes. He insisted on 4 years the first time and then again this time. Jerry got nothing.
Are we bashing Dak, or Jerry? I think most of the bashing goes to Jerry for making such an awful deal with Dak.
Micah is a much better player than Dak, but he is not the best Edge in the league so he does not deserve the highest contract. Jerry waited and he will sign Micah for about $41 million. Had he signed him after the season ended he probably could have gotten him for about $36 million. Imagine if Jerry let's Micah leave for free agency after paying to keep Dak.
If we are told that winning a Superbowl is a team sport then obviously QB's can no longer be gauged by how many SB's they won. No one in their right mind would look at Rodgers skill and say that he was somehow lesser than Eli Manning or Trent Dilfer or Brad Johnson. If we were to guage Rodgers on the same scale that I presented we'd be hard pressed to say that he wasn't closer to Brady in terms of pure skill and tenacity than he was to Sam Darnold now would we?
This is old news and your high priest loves to get his cronies riled up. Lol....you actually defend that guy. I guess you want us to lose too.
Yes, finding top QBs is tough, but every team has to face this challenge from time to time. Dak is going to retire someday and Dallas will be forced to find his replacement. I think teams have to stick to value vs cost. Dak's value was never equal to his cost. Not on his first deal and not on his current deal.That is the case because finding someone better would’ve been very difficult but some of you just don’t seem to get that.Some of you act like real good QBs grow on trees. Had we let Dak walk after the 2020 season we might have ended up with Justin Fields and would’ve had to trade up to get him because he was taken one spot ahead of Parsons. Fields has already proven he was a mistake. We would have ended up with him and passed up generational player. We would likely still be struggling trying to find a QB. Glad fans like you don’t run the team.
See the first line of my post.Why rehash all the gory details. It's a horrible deal for the team. I don't get why you are doing this.
Referring more to Jerry's the forthcoming capitulation in the 'negotiations', rather than Micah's abilities/worth.
Dak's contract makes sense on zero levels. Pretty much ensures that we won't see playoff success for at least the next 3 yrs. Dak proved beyond any doubt that his own greed is more important to him than anything else, especially winning. And then add in that the next two QB contracts were more in the 55 mil range. This one contract alone should have completely squelched any Jerry support left.
I don't doubt it. Basically, if a fan approves of Dak's contract then they are not interested in winning. There's no middle ground here, you either want us to win or you like Dak's contract. No, it cannot be both.
So you're OK w/ losing because of how we would've spent the extra? Not me.
Yep thats true, but that was after being tagged twice and was close to free agency, so he gained a lot of leverage.
It was a bad contract. But there’s a group here that hate Dak and bash him constantly. You can ignore those folks going forward because it proves they haven’t a clue.
It’s a cult for sure.
