Mickey: Do Not Minimize Dak's Availability

You have been biased for just how long? 30 years...woo hoo. NO good football per you, without Jerry. That should hold in Miami as well ... but doesn't. Make it up now. :popcorn:

Oh, the food sucked and took $1M to dine.:facepalm:

I wonder if a new cadence for Dak will matter now? I'm betting it does matter when mixed into execution now.

You might drink less as it has started to affect your posts lol.
 
The Dallas Cowboys were the fourth-lowest spending team in NFL free agency this offseason, but that isn't because the team is lacking salary cap space.

In fact, Dallas has among the most available space in the league and has several moves that could open up even more spending money, including a blockbuster extension with superstar Micah Parsons.

A post-June 1 designation spreads a player's cap hit over two years, reducing the impact on cap space for the current season.

The Cowboys enter the post-June 1 release period with the sixth-most available cap space in the league at just over $30 million, and they could make some veteran releases to free up nearly $10 million more in the coming days.

You mean they have Super Bowl rings, Mahomes has three rings , Brady has seven , I guess they share the ring ,with the team , and they all get a chance to wear it. The actual Super Bowl trophy I don’t think they could wear it,

Every player on the team has Superbowl wins on their profile. If you want to be pedantic then they all have Superbowl rings.

If your point is that any quarterback in the nfl would win Superbowl rings with Superbowl winning teams then you don't have a clue about the sport!

It obviously takes a team to win a Superbowl but if the quarterback is unable to produce the goods when it matters then very good/loaded teams will lose and not win Superbowls (or Superbowl rings if you need it to be termed in that way). E.g., Dak Prescott.

We like speculating, speculate this. I know more about this game and people from the game then you will ever. It takes a team to win a Super Bowl OK you hate Prescott. It’s obvious he could win five rings and it wasn’t him and your narrative would change 360°.

Everyone knows it takes a team to win a Superbowl.

The quarterback is the most important position on the field given that's the player who has the most touches of anyone on a team and therefore has the opportunity to influence the game more than any other player.

I don't hate Prescott. It would be a waste of my energy. His below average performance at the quarterback position in the play offs has been evident throughout his career. People can dress it up how they like but it's on tape.

You do seem to hate Mahomes which is a bit random.

Dak will never win 5 rings so no one needs to worry about if he will get credit or not. He won't be anywhere remotely close to getting even 1

There is an applicable The Princess Bride quote that could be made here. :)

Just because you disagree with someone's opinion doesn't mean you "know more than others ever will".

That...is some pretty serious arrogance there. When you have earned your own Lombardi...let us know.

I don’t hate Mahomes. I just don’t think he’s the greatest thing since sliced bread. The media needed a lover boy to take over for Aaron Rodgers and they chose him. And the sheep went along. I think he’s an excellent elite quarterback, but he’s not the best not even close.

Mahomes is smart, innovative, very athletic, and only halfway through his career. He may not be the best NFL quarterback ever, yet, but he can see that from where he’s standing.

Far as I’m concerned, he hit his peak. Kansas City is starting to go backwards.

They didn't just randomly choose him ,

he was good since day one ,I mean maybe you missed all the AFC championship game appearances and the Super Bowl rings ,and he was doing some crazy things on the field, he was definitely a fan favorite even for non-Kansas City fans..​
​
that is how you end up with a new goat candidate,​
​
he is literally that, I mean we have Lamar Jackson with MVP maybe one he didn't deserve and Prescott deserved it but now he didn't get one he deserved and Allen got it but regardless it's not just how great you are they could pick Lamar Jackson, why would he not be the face he's MVP caliber, it's because he's not winning the big games, you have to have both, the man's doing great things early in his career and winning Super Bowls..​
​
he's going to get on people's radar he is a good ratings grab and there's nothing wrong with that...​

His first five years in the league he was the best quarterback in the NFL. And there was a gap... i'm not a lover of Patrick Mahomes, but I know what my eyes tell me...he has done some miraculous things in great moments and got the hardware.

Now I can tell you this in recent the last three years as they took all the talent from him and some of the other teams have caught up he's just looked like a really great quarterback instead of an MVP caliber quarterback but that does happen...

I mean people around here overrated Troy and Roger, they didn't do it by themselves, you guys are ridiculous ,anybody who thinks Prescott and Romo weren't on the same level just really forget how great teams are and forget that teams win championships..

so yes, Andy Reid along with some great talent early on helped Patrick Mahomes career but Patrick Mahomes was still the best quarterback in the league his first 5 years in the league he was hands down he took over for Brady not Rogers,​

rogers still had a little bit of juice left but Rogers was already on a decline, tom Brady passed the torch to Mahomes.3 SB wins already at 29

Mahomes has led the Chiefs to seven consecutive AFC Championship Game appearances and five Super Bowl appearances since becoming their starting quarterback in 2018.

If that somehow lacks some respect from you, that's insane look the man was super great to start his career he's got all the hardware now to go into the HOF today.. if he retired, he's on the trip five years from now to be first ballot Hall of Famer, it is true... He is the new G O A T, for now...

Show me another player in today's game that came in as a rookie and then ever since then has been in every afc championship game that means they must have won their division almost every single time as well and already have three Super Bowl rings in what's supposed to be the afc has the better quarterbacks and a little bit better talent at least up until the last few years so that means he was having to beat better teams..

Yes, I realize it's a team game but dude seriously from 2018 up until today they've been in every single AFC championship game and probably won every one of their division titles But that's seven straight division titles along with seven straight afc championship game appearances...3 SB wins...thats is bigtime
 
I don't know if we can really call Dak "injury prone". For the first four years of his career he didn't miss a start.

-In 2020 that broken lower leg was a fluke play. The safety just rolled over his ankle at the worst possible moment.

-In 2021 he missed one game with a calf strain that he admitted was the result of overcompensating for his ankle; he recovered quickly from that.

-In 2022 he missed five games when he broke his thumb. Another fluke injury; as he hit it on a Bucs player's helmet just as he threw.

-In 2023 he stayed healthy. In 2024 the hamstring avulsion was really the first time he had a significant non-contact injury. So while we can be concerned that he's a tenth year player now that has missed sizeable chunks of three of the past five seasons....is Dak truly injury prone or just plain unlucky?
