You said the magic word which provides context here. "Franchise" quarterback. There has only been one franchise quarterback since Jerry has been owner - Troy Aikman. Jerry THOUGHT Romo would be another and paid him accordingly.
I still don't know what Jerry thinks of Dak. I still don't think Jerry believes Dak is a "franchise" quarterback. Why do I say this?
Would you expect Jerry to treat Tom Brady, Patrick Mahomes, Aaron Rodgers, Drew Brees or Russell Wilson like he's treating Dak? Do you believe if Jerry TRULY thought Dak was a franchise quarterback, Jerry wouldn't have ripped up Dak's rookie contract in two years and had given him a new contract commiserate to a franchise quarterback?
I think if Jerry thought Dak was Patrick Mahomes, a new contract would have been done last year. That's what gives me doubts about what Jerry is saying and how he's acting. You don't toy with a FRANCHISE quarterback like this.
Fair enough. I respect your opinion. As you pointed out, in the end, we're all just guessing. We'll see eventually, and I won't be upset if you're right, and I'm wrong.
I just want to see the Cowboys win another Super Bowl or two or three or four. I don't care if RisenStar is the quarterback if he can deliver.
