Cowboys EVP Stephen Jones on @MadDogRadio said it’s a “priority” to get a new contract done with Dak Prescott. “(Franchise QB contracts), they just take time.” Jones on believing Dak can win a Super Bowl in Dallas:

“Absolutely. I mean, I totally think Dak can lead us to a championship. He does everything the right way. He’s certainly the leader of this football team. He keeps everybody motivated in the offseason. He’s got everybody working out and doing all the things that it takes to put in the work to give yourself every opportunity to win a championship. It just so happens that sometimes that old oblong football doesn’t bounce your way. And we’ve had some tough breaks and tough games there in the postseason. But we’ve won 12 games three years in a row. I think that’s right at the top in terms of what teams have done over a three-year period. And we’re hanging around the rim. We’ve just gotta go up there and grab it, to use a basketball term, and dunk it in. We’re hanging around the rim. We just got to get the job done.”

It tends not to bounce the right way when you direct snap it to a slow HB in what should be a hail mary situation

No, I criticize them all the time. Just trying to set the facts straight.

Older QBs than Dak who won their first SB with the team they were drafted by:
John Elway (made 3 Super Bowls at a younger age but lost them all)

QBs who were the same age as Dak who won their first SB with the team they were drafted by:
Phil Simms

That's it.
Elway is a legend but I couldn't imagine how this place would be if Dak made it to 3 super bowls and never won lol

Poor Dak, he's just been unlucky. A bad run of cards...

In gambling there's a saying that you should never chase your losses.

How about not trying to bounce the ****ing ball in the first place Stevie.
Try having it thrown with a tight spiral to its intended target.
also
Why don't you bounce your *** out of that inherited wannnabe management gig and let a "real" GM have a go at it.
Man....we are so screwed.
please lord....

Yeah, having no running game and a defense that can’t stop the run is more than unlucky. It’s embarrassing.

Fish said it all today. Dak had his best year ever, MVP runner up. After 8 years do you really expect him to top last year? We have seen his best and it is still far from enough. Trade him now, gather lots and lots of picks and keep your fingers crossed going forward. I’m all for that actually! Blow it up now when we can get a Kings ransom for him and $100m in cap room. Next year we get squat, zilch, nada if we decide he’s not the guy. Thx…

That’s right Stephen. It’s not your own incompetence. It’s just plain old bad luck.

There is also a gambling saying "the trend is your friend". In this case it isnt a good one.
