First of all, please don't put Carson wentz in this conversation, he didn't win a Super Bowl ,Nick Foles did, that was dumb luck by the way they have your backup quarterback finished the run and by the way all those other guys were losers....hmm
we're talking about winning Super Bowls, not getting there there is no second prize... I mean did they give a runner up Lombardi like is it just a little smaller is it like a different color is it like a participation?? like I just wanna know where this goal post keeps getting moved the conversation is about winning Super Bowls, it is not working like you think.. That's why the stat matters 95 drafted quarterbacks since 2016 only one has won a Super Bowl and that would be Patrick mahomes this a few of them make the Super bowl and that somehow bolsters your argument no it doesn't it actually shows why teams are desperate to get a quality quarterback there are about 12 teams that have that they can get to the playoffs and at least have a shot.. So getting rid of your already established good quarterbacks for that kind of odds I mean 95 quarterbacks since 2016 and only one of them has won a Super Bowl if the goal the number one goal is to win a Super Bowl your argument is moot you can't just get rid of your best asset at quarterback cause it's the hardest one to find again.. The markets what the market is I mean now we're talking about receivers making 35 to $40 million it has changed this is not your dad's or your granddad's NFL there's a true real salary cap that's why all you analytic guys keep running these numbers back it don't matter none of this five percent 20% blah blah blah you have no proof it's only worked for one team since 2016 the rest of them are runner ups and there are very few of those..
So, we're just going to disagree about how many times you reply back. This is a really tough decision for an actual front office you know real people that actually are part of billion dollar industries that have successful companies not you not the fan base not the meddlesome clickbait rating sports people who think they have it all on lock in their head these are real people trying to make these decisions about their teams and they have to decide which direction to go there isn't One Direction but the thing that they know most you need in this league is a top quarterback a quality quarterback and again maybe 12 teams have that right now.. Out of these 32 team league and I think our fan base are the most delusional bunch that think it's that easy to find another guy to replace Prescott when there are another 16 plus teams that are looking for that guy and can't find it and we're supposed to find him again like just dump him and find him again just that easy like bill Parcells that easy to dial 1800 quarterback and just replace your guy we've actually been lucky I know you guys don't think that but I think we've been lucky to go from Romo to Prescott other teams have been fighting to find one guy in the last 20 years and we found two... I mean even it seems like luck that's what you have to have I mean go look at the 49ers that was not a plan they literally made a huge monumental mistake drafting Trey Lance and giving up that kind of assets they tripped over Brock Purdy he was never intended to be a starter or they would be in big trouble right now they cannot run their team without a quality quarterback I don't care how good they are ohh you already saw it right Purdy goes down and it was over for them..
Patrick mahomes is the only one that's done it recently on his rookie deal and then on his veteran deal and you keep talking about percentage, that's only because you're trying to use the here and now Prescott's at the end of his second contract which all the big money pushed down the road is dead cap that is not his actual salary which is still $42 million ,he just was paid up front, that's not Prescott's fault that's you utilizing a cherry picking way to make a percentage look bad because right now hurts his early in his career on his new deal meaning the money's pushed down the road he's has less money up front, when they paid everyone it hasn't stopped them from paying anyone that's the point that means that we can resign Prescott right now to a six year deal two years voided money pushed down the road and renew his contract now it's not going to hurt the team is it , it doesn't seem to be hurting those teams IYO
and by the way,
I disagree, I mean who says it's bad for business signing your quarterback because you don't want to be a bad team, the whole point is winning games and I get the bigger point is winning Super Bowls but teams are just not stacking Super Bowls no matter they're QB situation... so you at least have to have a competitive team because business is the bottom line you have to put ***** in the seats literally that is the number one goal of any business in this business , IT is a fan business, if you don't have a good product, you isn't putting fans in the seats you're losing money. If you don't keep fans interested there wouldn't be a league you could look at it how you want to but teams need to win games yes in the regular season they need to give the fan base hope and the fact is we've been to the playoffs 5 out of the last eight years that is the goal get in there it gives you a shot that gives you a competitive team that has a little chance to contend it's better than being one of the bottom 20 teams better looking for that same thing.. It starts with the quarterback and we all know it you may not need a Patrick mahomes but you need a Prescott to win enough games to keep fans into it because again we'd be the USFL/UFL/XFL/ anyone I'm forgetting ? if they didn't do business this way. Their goal is to keep the league competitive and the only way to do that is have some teams like the Dallas Cowboys that can keep the fans interested because we are relative because we are winning games and we are getting to the playoffs yes it's disappointing but that is how they're making their money in order to have this salary cap rise every year so now they have to pay their stars so they can put fans in the seats.. That's not bad business that's actually the way it was designed you can't have 32 teams winning Super Bowls every year it's not possible only one is left and there aren't many that are winning it sporadically they go on runs they're in dynasties and a lot of that is luck it's just good timing just happenstance there is no blueprint...
Please don't try to take common sense out of this, you're thinking like a person who has bought into the fact that if you're not winning Super Bowls you're a terrible team, and I'm telling you it's not that way because most teams are not winning Super Bowls...
there are dynasties and then there are sporadic team here and there hit and miss that wins the Super bowl but you have the dynasties in New England and Kansas City that is why this fact still holds true nobody wants to admit it and I don't care that Jerry Jones won his three early on the last 33 years there are only three teams since 1989 with more than three Super Bowls that would be the Dallas Cowboys the Kansas City Chiefs and the New England Patriots...
They we're all dynasties, that's the common denominator, not the sporadic team that thinks they have the blueprint and now the fan base is being brainwashed, if there's only one blueprint lots of teams would be winning a SB yearly NOT the same few rare dynasties
there is no blueprint sometimes it's dumb luck pairing a great quarterback with a great coach and then somehow it just takes off that is just the circle that is why the Kansas City Chiefs took 52 years to get that fire back...
