Yah, maybe he will choke again and throw for another 5000 yards and 33 total TD's.

His demands? You mean to get a 4 year deal like Wentz and Goff. The fact the Cowboys wanted a 5 year deal doesn’t exactly support the idea they aren't high on him. All appearances are that it was about the desire to spread the cap hit over 5 years rather than 4.
How did Aikman do without Emmitt? Or maybe you think we can pick up a Pat Mahomes at Walmart?
YOU MAKE A GREAT POINT. QB's dont grow on tree's. At least the good ones. It can be difficult.
Yes, and I think part of the problem is fans look at QBs like Mahomes, Brady, Brees and Rodgers and think the Cowboys have to have a QB at that level. Ideally, that would be great, but the fact 3 of those guys were drafted 15-20 years ago emphasizes how rare they are. So, The question is, should a team risk never having continuity at the QB position by shuffling QBs for years until that find that rare guy, or should they build something with a QB who is still very good, even if he’s not at that level?
Maybe I need to spell it out a little clearer for you! Dak aint nothing special that he cant be replaced! GOT IT!
Why does everyone think of Mahomes when replacing Dak. At this point Dalton could replace him and thats not saying Dalton is great its Dak aint nothing special!
That’s an opinion, which obviously you are entitled to. And just as obviously many feel differently. But my point is that I think what many Dak detractors get hung up on is that Dak isn’t at that truly elite level, and that is the standard they hold Dak to. And it’s not a realistic standard. Mahomes came into the NFL 3 years ago. The last before that that some might think of as elite is Russell Wilson, who came into the NFL 9 years ago. Then before that you have Rodgers, Brees and Brady who came into the league between 15 and 20 years ago. That’s a small number, and it takes going back 20 years to find when they arrived. It’s rare, so the best most teams can realistically achieve is one of the better QBs that lag behind that level, and build a solid enough team
What had Garappolo done to spend 28.5 million 3 years ago? What has Cousins done to spend 33 million on? Or Wentz? Having won or even gotten to a SB is not the standard. That’s just the price it takes to have a good QB you think can get you there these days.
