Expect more of the same in 2025

[Redsfan_83]

-Sitting out free agency once again
-McCarthy most likely back (Zimmer too)
-Dak 1 year older and probably even less mobile
-No Overshown

is it even possible for a human being to be even less mobile?

I think this is the best route to go too. I'm thinking 2025 needs to be used as an actual rebuild year. Eat the major cap hit on Daks deal and itll free up quite a bit of money for 2026. That would give you two additional draft classes and a real chance at building through free agency to make a final run with Dak while Parsons, Smith, Lamb, Bland etc are still in their prime.

I agree with the both of you guys but the reality is Jerry ain't about to let Dak individually cost over 89 million towards the cap next season.
History says otherwise. You know the drill. He'll restructure it and do the standard Jerry/Stephen kick the can down the road of continued crippling overpaid contracts.
"IF" he just woulda let it play out last year and not extend him...

What a ******* mistake.
4 more years.
Minimum.

Still want to know why no one asks….”ok so you’ve built a team that isn’t good enough, and there’s no cap room left to get better. Doesn’t that mean you failed?”

But I suppose these folks want to keep their jobs.

See the interview from Shan & RJ


Pretend they are doing a good job or they get someone else to interview them

I think you're absolutely right and its the biggest problem at all. Jerry has no issue being mediocre as long as they are relevant. Restructuring a few deals gives them just enough ability to do to enough to be relevant. They wont have the cap flex to do anything that really moves the needle though.

If this is the case (it is), please draft Jeanty or a receiver in the first round.

I can not stand seeing Jalen Tolbert or Brandin Cooks play WR anymore

If they do take a receiver take one with some size.

So done with these dinky wide outs.

He wouldn't of been allowed on the plane if that were Jimmy coaching....Cut right on the spot with a bus ticket back home....

Well it was a home game so no plane or bus.....

But I get your point and I agree.....

The Vikings vs Falcons game at the weekend was like watching what could have been without Dak Prescott.

As in the Vikings moved on from a bum quarterback with impressive stat padding (Cousins) and brought in a quarterback for $10 million who is balling out. The Vikings and the $10 million dollar man smashed the face of a weathered and finished quarterback in Cousins.

Exactly man.
Its become just another status quo part of their idea of staying relevant.

And a one and done playoff team will remain the Dallas Cowboy team ceiling based on this same mis management continuing on.

Yeah, did you see Cooper Rush. Ones as bad as the other

 

[stiletto]

Daks contract is the issue

If they didn't sign him the future is at least exciting

Agree overall but I am very skeptical of how they'd spend the money anyway or even come close to getting in players that could actually help. They are clueless.

 

[IceStar-D7]

But I get your point and I agree.....

I meant giving him the ticket back home immediately. So, unless he lives in Dallas?????Oh well ...Hope Dallas has good greyhound service for late night bus rides..

Wym?

We just traded a high 4th for a 6’2 220 mammoth of a man in Mingo

 

[cowboyfan4life2]

Well.another year of the jones smucks not getting another dime.from me. The boycott continues.

 

[cowboyfan4life2]

So 26 is their year?

3026?

 

[MikeT22]

Yet you'll have a bunch of kool-aid drinkers here predicting a 12-5 or 13-4 record next August when some obscure camp scrub looks decent for 15 minutes or Dak the cripple throws a ''great'' pass in practice against jags.

''Next year will be different, I can feel it.''

Next Aug? They’ll start hyping in January

Draft one that can actually play.

The worst thing that happened to as the NFL handed Jerry a HOF jacket years ago, only because he made the league a boatload of money.

Jerry has lived off of Jimmys Super Bowls and that fraudulent HOF induction for decades and hasn’t really cared since.

We’re not making a run with Dak. We need to eat the contract now and get ready for the 2026 season and look to move on from him in the 2026 offseason.
