Night and day difference.

That's because there's a night and day difference between the agents and players and the way they're handling this through the media and yes Jerrys equally responsible but there's no parallels at all to the other holdouts in this one...

Not even close,

it's not even worth talking about but I'll add to it as many times I have to to make people realize that Parsons in his agent are equally responsible for all this drama and after yesterday with the MRI Gate and all this grievances and all this other stuff to him trying to get out of even practicing and playing and honoring his contract,

i'm starting to switch to the other side, I was staying neutral but this not with any of the other players had to do to get their money and Prescott didn't even do the holdout and he has two of the biggest contracts Jerry's ever paid out with everything in it,

I mean he took Jerry to the cleaners and didn't need to do any of this....

Needs to suit up Friday for practice that is installing gameplans for the eagles, come in be a bigger man ,cave, and let this play out naturally because Jerry will see the loyalty, It will stop the nonsense ,and the man will get everything he's ever wanted, because Jerry has done that for all his superstars...

we all saw the precedence it's been set he pays everyone he overpays because he waits this long but he always pays this was not necessary. Yes he's even paid players after they were injured prescott and Steele both got paid after their injuries..

Is no risk to returning to practice and playing games because Jerry will pay you regardless..

Mostly blame the agent and Jerry but the agents giving Parsons bad advice...... Technically Jerry's in a stalemate with the agent he hates the agent either get rid of the agent get a new agent or come into practice and let this thing play out naturally....

Eagles second and they just won SB. Hope we don't see a dynasty from them.

You likely see a run of 2-3 years. But their entire defense outside of Baun is mostly on rookie deals.

However, Roseman likely retools and does his magic.
 
Maybe Zeke knew that by the end of his contract he would be nothing like rookie Zeke.

For those hoping for a Micah trade, I read something yesterday where teams like the Packers are interested, they are not willing to give up the draft picks that people have suggested it would take to get Micah from t Cowboys. It could be teams just want to see if they can swindle Jerry, who has been known to get the worse end of the deal in trades, or if they just don't want to give up draft capital they need to build their own rosters.

Well he's not insane by definition if he's changing his ways, and caving into Parsons.

I think even in those 2 hold outs you saw them working you did not have the optics of a spoiled toddler on the sidelines which makes it look bad to Jerry. They also stayed away from team not causing distractions. with Parsons he's being advised or he's doing it to make it look like poor me jerry's the bad guy not giving in to my demands.

i wonder how he will act when he gets that big contract?

I wonder if Parsons would of stayed away if it wasn't for the new CBA rules on hold outs.
Zeke could holdout back then and not really be fined that much-if at all, due to his lack of tenure in the league at the time.
And any fines back then could of been waived by the team. The new CBA got rid of the ability to waive fines.

Good question on how he will act/strive to improve the few weaknesses in his game.
Will he try to go Jaylon Smith and try to focus on brand, having meetings at the Star, or will he want to be the greatest-but with comfort of generational money?

Remember Lee getting rocked....and honestly...I don't blame Tate one bit. As a defensive player you are taught to keep your head on a swivel....Just goes to show Dallas has never drafted players that know the fundamentals of football. They go off that crazy analytical SPARs crap. Give me a guy that knows how to play.

Sean Lee didn’t know the fundamentals of football? Get the heck outa here with that nonsense.

Exactly it's not even close to the same that's what I keep trying to tell people this is not even as close parallel to any other holdouts that's happened in Dallas...

Agents give him really bad advice It's beyond optics I wasn't on any side and I know Jerry is a big problem here with the social media drama that's being created between him and the agent but this has gotten way beyond the normal holdout type situation..

I agree with you and I'm betting if he switched agents he would end up getting paid pretty quickly or if he caved and just came in and start practicing Friday getting ready for the Eagles and tells everybody he's ending his holdout and he's going to play against the Eagles all of a sudden Jerry is in the situation where he feels he wins and I guarantee the contract happens pretty quickly...

To me I don’t care if the average age is 23 or 24 or 25…..

But I do not want my team to have an average age of 28. Commanders are playing with fire. And I get it they’ve drafted so bad In the Rivera era they don’t have a choice. But yeah when guys prime years are over before 30 and you have 25 players over 29? Yikes.

I think their # is a bit skewed.

Von, Wagner and Ertz, Tunsil definitely increase their number.

.... I know they are many, but which one for you still stands out?

Mine: Dallas Vs Nola 2019

Saints RB Kamara takes hand off, to outside. Jaylon Smith comes down like freight train, whacks him on side of helmet.
Kamara staggers getting up, walking dizzy, side to side. I thought, oh man, that's gotta be flag. Nothing, ref working on Cola Slurpee.

Bill Bates when returning a punt.

I'd probably push a healthy Dak up a notch or two ahead of maybe a Stafford or a Mayfield
Click to expand...
Stafford was 36 years old last season & is still making throws that Dak has never been able to make. He get's wildly disrespected by casual fans.

Mayfield has played well for a number of years yet the Cleveland stench is still attached to him. As if any QB has changed that organization.

i would have just put zion and kemon hall on the 53 instead of these new no-names.
childress and hall earned it in my opinion.

I agree.

But, Reddy likely gets the nod as he is familiar with Eberflus.

Hollywood Henderson once put a hit on Earl Campbell for the ages.

Bill Bates put a hit on an Eagles kick returner that was so vicious that when he got up he ran over and sat on the Cowboys bench. He literally didn't know where he was

Cliff Harris put a hit on Billy Kilmer that would have gotten him suspended for six games today.

Those are the ones that I recall.
Click to expand...
Yeah, but how about when Bates was the returner and Head-onned the cover guy? Straight on. Not sure the other guy got up.
 
Ring6 said:
I'm talking about him either clearing waivers or getting claimed off waivers. Noon today is the deadline for him since he was released yesterday.
and yes, if a team claims him, they can put him on their practice squad.

Some players, namely vested veterans, do not have to be exposed to or abide by waiver claims. But in this case, Zion Childress, he is not, and can be claimed by any team.
Click to expand...
If a team claims a player it is to the 53 man roster, not the practice squad.
 
Overall, not a bad ranking. Good Tiers. Few that I would change, but overall not bad.

Best QBs in the league are Mahomes/Burrows/Allen. Stafford is easily the top of the next tier, resting at the 4 spot.

I mean they gave 25 players over the age of 29 lol. It’s hard to say numbers are skewed with that many.. of anything the number would be higher thanks to their last two rookie classes. I’m shocked it’s only 28.
