that is really funny, where did you come up with this????Brady would have been traded or released if he had asked for what he’s worth.

Billichick isn’t going to pay top money and extended contract to a 40+ year old QB.that is really funny, where did you come up with this????
Not me! I’ll never like this turd.
Most fans seem to think that a Zeke like holdout will hurt his rep with his teammates. Not true. Most stud players, which is just about every pro player, have egos the size of Texas. They ALL want to get paid. Zeke's holdout might be hurting the fans, but fans will come crawling back as soon as he scores a TD. The team chemistry will only suffer if a teammate starts acting like a fan and not like a player.
Meh... I don't have that kind of emotional attachment to professional sports. I did when I was younger, though. The athletes in the NFL (and professional sports in general) who truly care about winning are in a very small minority these days. Tom Brady is one of them. The problem in Dallas is that they don't have anyone on the roster who desires to win as much as the Brady types. Witten might be the closest. Dak and Zeke, to me, are only interested in the next big pay day.
I can't remember the last time anyone on the Cowboys roster was truly upset or angry after a loss.
no one knows, only Brady does, maybe he likes his 9 SB appearances most, he knows all the money he earned that will support him like a king the rest of his life, maybe he has a brain and uses it and who he married really doesn't matter..
Became an issue? One player spoke out. The one player that left his team in the locker room to go out for the anthem. Even though I liked that he went out, do you think his teammates were thrilled that he painted them all as not respecting the flag?It sure became an issue in Pitt with Lev Bell. We are too far from week 1 for players to care much at this point. I dont think chemistry becomes an issue unless we start losing games behind a lackluster rushing attack without Zeke.

And Garrett will be smiling, giggling and slapping Shurman on the butt!!I don't think anyone on the roster really cares that much about losing. Should they lose to the Giants week 1 there will still be several of them meeting at mid field after the game with big smiles on their face, looking to trade jerseys with their favorite player on the opposing team. If it were me I would be so mad about losing they might find my helmet embedded into Jerry's jumbo tron or smashed into a chair 40 rows up in the lower deck.
Putting his personality aside, I didn’t like the pick from day 1 and I don’t think he’s worth as much money as he wants.Don’t have to like him. This isn’t a popularity contest. I couldn’t stand Michael Irvin and his criminal behavior but he was a key part in helping us win championships.
Michael Jordan made 135 million dollars in his last the three years of his run in Chicago. The Brady cares about winning narrative is played out. He's still made millions.And unlike many pro athletes he desires winning above everything else. He commented last year or the year before that he doesn't play to make the pro bowl, he plays to make the game the following week. Many members here at CZ think that making the pro bowl is such a big deal. It isn't, and never will be as big a deal as playing in the other bowl game.
They are the ones going out there getting their bodies damaged.In a perfect world, yes. But as long as owners are taking it in, players are gonna want to get paid. I dont blame them.
He's immature. He makes it hard to like him sometimes. But he's done pretty minor stuff compared to some other Cowboys in the past.To call Zeke a thug is irresponsible. He is definitely immature, and probably isn't too bright. But it's not like he's out pretending to be a gang tough guy. He likes to go out and party, which is par for his age group.
If you don’t want him on our team, that’s fine but why shouldn’t he receive what the top RB’s in the league are making ?Putting his personality aside, I didn’t like the pick from day 1 and I don’t think he’s worth as much money as he wants.
Right. He makes it almost impossible to like him.He's immature. He makes it hard to like him sometimes. But he's done pretty minor stuff compared to some other Cowboys in the past.

Couldn't agree more Coach, Elliott is not doing anything to the fans or the team and most would be surprised at how many are on his side.Most fans seem to think that a Zeke like holdout will hurt his rep with his teammates. Not true. Most stud players, which is just about every pro player, have egos the size of Texas. They ALL want to get paid.

From Kraft's comments after Brady agreed to that contract, he said "Tommy really had no choice". That reduced contract had nothing to do with his wife's earnings, it was about Belichick's formula not allowing for a QB to take too much of his cap which is why he drafted Garappolo and would have traded Brady had he not been willing to play Belichick's game. No player is sacred to him, there's just not anyone else like him in the NFL.that is really funny, where did you come up with this????
