Milton would be exciting to watch if Dak were gone

[coult44]

There could be hope for the Cowboys franchise if they finish the job.
Joe Milton is a legitimate candidate to be a long-term franchise quarterback.
However, Dak Prescott remains entrenched as the Cowboys starter. Not because he's earned it, but because he's got that huge contract. One thing we know about Jerry is that he will play the higher paid player, regardless if it is best for the team or not.
There is no way Joe Milton can succeed as long as Dak is still on the team. Even if Dak were injured, he would be returning to the starting spot as soon as he is healthy.
Jerry isn't about to admit to his mistake.

For those of you, or maybe us, who want to see that we probably won’t have to wait long, Dak is on the backside of his career and he’s seriously injury prone now. I think the chances are greater than 50-50 that we see Milton for a while this year.

no way even if Dak retired tomorrow, no way

I’m sure you were spinning the same thing when the Cowboys traded for Lance.

And how did Dak perform this season?
Ranked in the 20s?
Top paid QB in the NFL?
Set, game, .match.

Damn didn’t you say that about Lance, Dinucci, Dalton? Damn how many boogeyman’s does it take to take his job?

What it takes is an owner/GM to put ego aside. Admit he made a mistake and have a true QB competition that isn't based on salary. Dak should of been cut along with McCarthy after that GB game.

A real GM doesn’t cut an All Pro right before he made an all pro lol. Not quite how it works.

This. It’s that simple.

We all want better play at QB but Joe Milton is a backup QB who has some upside in ways Cooper Rush never did. He has a looooong way to go to be seen as a starting QB.

Glad we have him as a developmental project. But the hype about him being our “future” is simply “desperate hope”.

Do we have any other kind?

Dak wasn’t great but he wasn’t terrible. In 3 of our 5 losses with him our defense SUCKED! If you honestly believe he’ll be ousted this season by a QB that was drafted in the 6th round and has accuracy issues you’re completely lost. The fact that Dak is the top paid QB means he isn’t losing his job. I’m sure you were spinning the same exact BS when we traded for Lance. How did that workout? Game-set-match. lol

The fact is that Dak is not capable of winning big games, we know that. It has been proven ad nauseum. He played at Cooper Rush level AGAIN. Arguably less.
So next man up.
Come on, admit it, your Dak love is strong.
I had hope too, pre ankle injury.
We'll come back to this as the season progresses.

If you want to argue about Dak go waste someone else’s time. The Cowboys traded for Melton to replace Cooper Rush as the backup. Fact! He’ll be competing against Will Grier.

I’m sure you were spinning the same crap when we traded for Lance. lol Here’s one comment you made. Click your name and go to the thread. It was about Lance receiving more reps. You thought Lance would outperform Dak.

Oh really? Shocking. if I'm Dak, I'd hold out, avoid the embarrassment.

Lance wasn't even given a chance with first team. But regardless last season showed how poor Dak was playing AFTER getting paid and promising Jerry a SB. Lance was bust before he even got to Dallas. Most of us knew if Shanahan couldn't fix him nobody was going to.

Lance started one game last season and had a passer rating of 69.8. lol He never did anything to deserve to start. He couldn’t even beat out Rush. This is why we moved on from him. He’s on his third team and will likely end up in the UFL. Where did Dak promise Jerry a SB?

When he signed his last contract he said that. Jerry mentioned it when he was doing an interview.

Did you watch dak play this year? Cooper rush out performed in for crying out. He was rated below 20, he should be embarrassed.
It's about potential son. Lance had potential, Milton has potential. Dak has proven he has none. But because Jerry's a complete moron at times, some of you insist on following his lead, go figure.

Jerry may have mentioned it but never heard it from Dak. He certainly didn’t extend him because of a promise Dak made. lol

Did you watch Rush play? He passed for under 200 yards in 5 of his 8 starts and completed under 60% in 6 of those games. lol In the game against Philly he passed for only 45 yards. He was horrible! He was 4-4 and his limitations were obvious despite the fact our defense played much better during his starts. For anyone to say he outplayed Dak is hilarious! Milton probably has less potential than Lance based on where they went in the draft. Milton will only see the field if he beats out Grier and Dak gets injured. You were hyping Lance and now you’re hyping Milton.

 

[big dog cowboy]

Dak > Rush or Rush > Dak it doesn't matter.

Neither won is capable of winning 3 or 4 in a row post season.
