Video: Ex-NFL Player Reaction: Is it right move for Dak to play out his contract?

[Typhus]

Most of us are exhausted talking about him. You’ll be a lot more tired experimenting with other QBs trying to replace him. You’ll get tired of watching the team sit home for the playoffs every year if we struggle to replace him.

Nope, already used to it.

 

[Chasing6]

Players want to win SB's because it translates to more money. It is always about the money first.

 

[KJJ]

Nope, already used to it.

It’s pretty funny how some of you act like the Cowboys have been going through an awful QB situation. You must not have been following the team during the mid to late 80s and early 2000s.

If you payed closer attention you would know better.

Don’t know why some of you keep bringing that up. Did you actually watch those games? We were 5-1 with Rush because we had a great running game and our defense was playing lights out. We had 176 yards rushing against the Giants and 163 against the Rams. We rushed for well over 100 yards in all but one of the wins we had with Rush and our defense was on pace to break the all-time sack record. We never gave up more than 17 points in the 5 wins we had with Rush despite having very little passing game. Rush only had 100 yards passing against the Rams but we won by 2 scores because of our defense and running game. Rush only had 5 TD passes in 6 games. When Dak returned our offense went from 17th to number one and we became the highest scoring offense. It’s laughable if some of you think we can win with Cooper Rush with the team we have now.

Because it's true.

Why do people keep on saying we won't win games without dak when it has already been proven false.

 

[KJJ]

If you payed closer attention you would know better.

You honestly believe we have an awful QB situation?

If you can’t see the difference between the team we had 2 years ago and the team we have now, especially our RB situation then you’re not a very astute football fan.

Just ask Jerry or Stephen, they will tell you they love him which translates into we hate this dude.

You and others hate him. You’ll appreciate him a lot more someday if we struggle to replace him. Romo used to get a lot of the same hate because we were going through the same playoff disappointments with him. We had the same team issues holding us back. Penalties and the defense never showed up in the playoffs. It’s going to be the same problems with the next QB and probably even worse if we don’t fix these problems.

If the team was so good 2 years ago why couldn't we go farther in the playoffs with dak?

Also about the insults, people that hurl them typically do so because they don't have a logical well thought out reply. Just a little tip for you on the game of life son.

Don't be afraid to step out of mediocrity.

We don’t go further in the playoffs because of the same reasons we didn’t go further in the playoffs with Romo. We continue to have coaching issues, commit stupid penalties, have an inconsistent running game and our defense always sucks in the playoffs. If you take my comment that you must not be a very astute football fan as an insult then you’re being overly sensitive. Everyone gets their football IQ questioned. It’s nothing personal, it’s just that you don’t seem to understand the game very well and how teams differ from one year to the next. When you start talking about the game of life, that’s getting personal.

 

[KJJ]

We not mediocre during the regular season. Our regular season success isn’t translating to the playoffs and we can’t figure out why. No one is stepping up. We struggle in every phase of the game in the playoffs.

They think all QB's suck unless they win a SB.

 

[KJJ]

They think all QB's suck unless they win a SB.

In the last 6 years only three QBs have won a SB, Mahomes, Stafford and Brady. The Cowboys have only had two QBs win SBs. You can’t just move on from a real good QB because they haven’t won a SB.

We have all figured out why, you prefer to lay in the shadows of yesterday.

right,

you are correct, I think that when people say they're tired of getting cut short of the playoffs,​

​

it's going to really Be interesting to see how they react when we're below 500 for three or four years...hmm

but maybe if we win the offseason and free agency they will be much happier!!

which by the way, I think it's interesting to know that the New York Giants in Washington actually have spent more money in free agency the last three seasons than the Cowboys or the Eagles yes the Cowboys are last and yet we've won the division twice but those two are more aggressive in free agency and finishing last..

this fan base seems to want to win the offseason in hopes of going to a Super Bowl but with risking that we could be far worse getting rid of the players they seem to think need an upgrade when there's a huge possibility it's going to be very difficult to upgrade from Prescott...

No one has it figured out why our regular seasons aren’t translating to the playoffs. If you think it’s all because of Dak you’re wrong. This has been going on since Romo was here. This is a team/organizational issue.

It is indeed my friend and Dak is part of the team currently.
His failures cannot be denied.

I don't get it, KJJ. If you say this is a team/organizational issue and that is why the Cowboys don't win in the playoffs, then why the hell pay Dak tons of money? Just go with Lance or a draft pick and get the same results at a cheaper cost. If you say, well, we won't win many games during the regular season, who cares if they get to the playoffs and can't win what good are regular season wins, so Cowboy fans can be happy?
