Lance is not the answer; Dak is gone, too old, too much to overcome; Rush is meh

if dallas does not sign dak we're looking at 2+ years at minimum with a bottom of the barrel QB unless they break tendancy and spend on a FA qb.

I love the way armchair QB's, many of whom have never played are bashing a QB after watching him in ONLY one preseason game. Absolutely ridiculous.

Lance looks the way he always has. Great athlete with a live arm who is not making the throws or reads he needs to be making.

Prescott’s replacement will be drafted.

do you think Jerry is going to spend money in FA...well, depends on potential jersey sales....

just one preseason game? or multiple actual games and multiple pre-season games. mind you he is in year 4 in the NFL...yet he has a fandom for some reason. not sure why. but he does.

It isn’t one preseason game. The is Lance’s 4th season in the NFL.

2 years? No, they will have Lance, he will be improved. If they resign him though.
Most likely will draft a QB if one is available.

I believe he played in 8 NFL games and started in 4 of those. Is that not correct? Remember, he's been injured a couple times.

 

[Chasing6]

well, that sucks. so Jerry has truly cornered himself worse than he has ever done.

Should be a good RB class.

 

[cowboys5xsbs]

I wouldn't mind giving rush a chance he is better than any fa you bring in

 

[Mark]

I feel it is safe to say that the next SB QB for the Cowboys is not even on the roster.

It may well be that he hasn't yet been born.

 

[windward]

We needed another quit because something bad might happen thread.

I don’t understand how these fans approach their fan hood because it seems like perpetual misery.

so? love played in no games and sat behind rodgers for 4 years....then he got a chance to play and showed his ability.

this kid sucks.

I'm onboard with blowing this team up and starting over. I sat through Troy's 1-15 rookie season. The Cowboys are in an absolutely untenable position, held hostage by Dak - and to a lesser extent by Parsons & Lamb.

What would it look like if they were all traded for future draft picks?

Alas, the concept of delayed gratification is not a thing in 21st-century Dallas. Which is odd, because demolition & rebuild is exactly how a much-younger Jerry Jones built the sort of team he so craves today.

 

[Rockport]

why? explain why?

You’re just a rambling incoherent fan who hasn’t even seen this team play and yet wants to blow it all up after seeing Lance play. It’s entertaining because it’s so out there. You’re entitled to your opinion though and I‘m entitled to say you’re over the top. Next you’ll be on board with that other dudes “Everyone gets the same salary” ridiculousness. Why this post now?

its been painfully obvious Lance is not the answer. there are multiple threads defending his play, making excuses like he has been a victim, or it wasn't that bad or he needs more time and needs more work, blah blah blah...this for a top 3 pick in his 4th year in the league. those excuses are what you say about a 6th or 7th round rookie.

Dak is over 30. he will not have a chance to succeed in Dallas and time to go separate ways for the benefit of both.

Rush is what he is. a reliable back up, not a difference maker.

and we have zero QBs under contract for 2025. time to draft the next QB. perhaps having a really bad record is not the worst scenario this year. this team may very well fall apart when it hits a controversy which will happen in Cowboys land, during the season and they fall apart. questions are do we trade Lamb? and why not? SF is asking for 2 firsts for Aiyuk...lamb is certainly better. they may not get 2 1sts, but that's the starting asking price.

do we trade Parsons? why not? I am not high on him. he is not focused on football. is getting by with his physical ability and talks too much. not the type of leader we need in dallas. trade cook? for a mid round pick to a contender in the middle of the season? why not?

so who are the QBs coming out next year? I am not tuned into the college QB scene for 2024.

This was Treys first game for us.

Many of us liked what we saw.

Tons of video on the kid.

I do not think Dak is the next 4 or 5 year guy at QB. But if extended not going to have a melt down. Means they best get great players around him somehow. Definitely higher than 20, I say top 12.

Rish is not the guy either, you are correct. However there are some on here that tout his 5-1 record as being as good as Dak. Which he is no where close.

we have no idea about Trey if he can develop into a starter or not. Or if he can be elite or not.

But they are decent at evaluating talent, or at least to go by what McClay puts in front of them. Hence, 12-5 and playoffs the past 3 seasons.
Their issue is They refuse to address certain areas. For a long time it was Safety, and still DT. Last year draft at RB.
However they have not addressed QB since 1989. That is the biggest issue.

1. Cant get great players around Dak with him, Parsons and Lamb possibly being the highest paid at their positions.....so that's not happening

2. I'd like to see Rush in an actual playoff game before proclaiming him DOA.

3. I'm inclined to believe a guru like Shanahan in reference to Trey Lance but he got a few more preseason games to show something positive?

4. Amen to them neglecting to draft a quality qb BEFORE they need one

A lot of people don't understand its 4 incomplete years due to injuries... Now if it was 4 full seasons where he started every game, I don't believe anyone would need to see more from him.

Apparently, it's cool to bash a young player before doing any research.

Shabazz, your comment below makes a lot of sense, but I'm hoping SF ran out of time with this player due to injuries. Time will tell.
