Lots of people feel that the caps don't matter, and I think cap and draft picks are the fundamental resources you have to build a team in the NFL. Getting the most out of both is what most of the contest is about.
What you can spend outside those limits on staff is where we have an advantage, though we're also saddled with Jerry as GM as a deterrent to the best coaching talent.
Another huge problem is his coaching hires. I even say McCarthy was technically a bad hired that turned out to be a good hire. But they hired him so fast....they had their eyes on him and stuck with him. I think thus far its worked out. Cant' be upset about two back to back 12 win seasons. Jerry's coaching decisions have probably been the most criminally thing he's done. More so than trading for Claiborne, Roy Williams, Joey Galloway...whoever. Coaching goes a long way.

Both Brady and Burrow have made it to SB's without decent teams. Losers always look for scapegoats. Winners hold up SB trophies.
Anyone saying Brady and Burrow don't have decent teams are moronic.

Brady has played with Hall of Fame talent throughout his career as well as one of the greatest coaches of time. Gronkowski and Randy are Hall of Famers.

The difference between Brady and others is he never had "names". HE had very good talent. Even guys like Rodney Harrison, Richard Seymour, Edleman, Welker....Brady always had talent. When he didn't is when he jumped ship to the Buccaneers because the Pats couldn't duplicate that same magic in later years.

In regards to Burrow not having talent....it doesn't even need to be dressed. HE literally has the best receiving group in the NFL lol. Has one of the best slot receivers in the league and two top 20 receivers....Joe Mixon at running back. To say he doesn't have talent is just criminally stupid.

Who gives a dam about respect for Dak. The Cowboys need to get a QB in there that doesn't throw up all over himself in the playoffs. Dak is a top 5 regular season QB and plays like a 25th ranked QB in the playoffs.

When are some fans going to stop blaming the player for what he makes and put that blame where it belongs, on management?

Every agent and player is in it to get as much as they can and it's not their job to manage the cap.

This team has an owner known for blinking with stars and compounds that by openly selling the stars to the fans. The Joneses played right into the agent's hands, pleasing their own egos, with praise for the players and drove the price up themselves.

What a clown act. Walk onto any car dealer's showroom and start gushing over the vehicle, like you built it, and then try and haggle with him over price.

It is short sighted to blame any Cowboy for what they make with these two at the helm of the team.

Remember what that idiot said when he was negotiating with Romo's agent? "Romo is the only QB that can play behind this line". The negotiation stalled and not only did Romo get paid but that got OL in the 1st round. Think the agent didn't demand that? If he didn't Romo's wife did.

Then what does the idiot double down on when asked about the size of Romo's contract? "He will play better because he's getting paid better". What a fool.

Does the donkey walk faster after he gets the carrot?

You don't like Prescott fine but don't make it about his contract because he's not to blame for that than any other player. And stop using Brady as an example. Use Cousins, Watson, Rodgers, Wilson and Jackson instead.

Brady didn't have great receivers for most of his years. Yes, he had Gronk.
Losers always fall back on stats while winners hold up SB trophies.

Sure, but Brady also has Belichick. Dak had Garrett for the first half of his career. Massive difference in coaching.

Brady always had a good to great Defense & a great coach that got everybody on the team to do "their job". Patriots rarely make any glaring mistakes. The Bucs were already a stout team before Brady joined them & we saw how well he played when they weren't so good anymore.

I'll concede they're both better than Dak, but good luck drafting somebody as good as them with us consistently making the playoffs. We've only had a good defense for the last 2 years.

I like dak as much as I did Garrett, both are boat anchors holding us back.

we want dak to drive the bus, and for the team to get super athletes in every spot on the team to carry him. Yep, he's great. I support the crap out of our anchor.

The Bengals Super Bowl appearing team had a below average defense. Ranked 17th in points, 18th in yards, 26th in passing yards.

The O-line was horrible/injured. Burrows was sacked 51 times. Yes, 51 times.
They were 23rd in rushing yards.

Come on man.

Exactly! Where as Jason Garrett depended on players not getting hurt, which is a near impossible thing in football. For those slamming Dak, wow, those teams were sure lining up for Jason Garrett's services after we and the Giants sacked him.

Awsome. You just said the Goat and a top 2 Elite QB in the league as examples.

Are you complaining why we don't have an Elite QB...

That was quite lame

Ok genuis. Where do we get o e of those? Draft one? Who do you expect to get in the late 20s? Or are you advocating to blow it up?

Yes. Burrows is elite. Is your point proving Burrows is better than dak? Really is that it. Well let me help you out. BURROWS IS ELITE.
Dak is not.

You all act as if nobody around here wants an Elite QB.

Burrows was the #1 over all pick.

You got one of those?

Calm down. Breath.

I was responding directly to the assertion that, "Anyone saying Brady and Burrow don't have decent teams are moronic."

You wasted some perfectly good ranting time chasing a ghost.

Hope this helped you out....

Oh now you want answers! I guess you forgot how I was lobbying for Luck, Lawrence, Hurts was there for that taking but it's a little late for that. It's always a little late because all these idiots keep thinking Dak is the answer. Years past there were options and could of made trades including packaging up draft picks and players. At this point right now the Cowboys better think about maybe trading Parsons to get a QB.

Yup. All too often perception is far from reality.

Brady's first 3 super bowl wins were won on D w/ stacked teams. He had around 8 top 5 D players.

Listen to this all star studded cast: Ty Warren, Vince Wilfork, Ted Washington, Seymour, Vrabel, McGinest, Tyrone Pool, Rodney Harrison, Eugene Wilson, Assante Samuel.

Frickin' stacked D. Some moron, prolly a bored sportswriter, started this ridiculous notion that Brady was winning super bowls w/ no talent. Just stupid.

Burrow had a stacked D when they made the super bowl.

It's just so stupid how fans claim some player had nothing around them just because they don't recognize the names.

Every time we all lobby to trade 3 #1s to move up to the #1 pick the scared money folds.
