This team is stacked, but how do we rein in Dak, use him in an efficient and safe way?

And perhaps Dak lives in their head rent free and I am yanking their chain....that's all they can think about. They are consumed.

Okay...you get off on it. Fine.

It doesn't help matters and you are just as culpable as they...especially of doing it on purpose...just to "yank chains".

Not bamboozling myself.

There was tags that allowed Dak to negotiate with other teams.

There was all sorts of ways to avoid this awful deal.

Cooper Rush, who isn’t very good, can win 3 of 4 games with this supporting cast. We can do better than Rush and still get a player that closer to Dak.

Dak’s arm talent isn’t that good and he isn’t very mobile at all anymore.

dude, you are all over the place. just jumping from one thing to the next, because you can't argue with logic.

I didn't ask for history of contract negotiations. I said give me an Elite QB. you said look at Mahomes and Burrows. so lets go get one. now, give me names.

and in regards to your Rush Crush. he led the 22nd ranked offense and worse in some areas. at that trajectory, we would miss the playoffs. he got progressively worse over the course of 5 games, culminating in a 100 yard game and a 3 interception game.

but sound to me like you are creding rush with the wins. so should we take a look at Dak's wins/losses?

so Dak's arm talent is not good. great. like I said, lets go get some arm talent. who? give me names. put your name next to won. give us a scenario of how we can get a player with arm talent that would make this team better.
you seem timid. avoiding. which tells me all you want to do is complain.

He has been traded for more 1st and 2nd Rd picks then probably any player not named Hershel Walker . . . but He is just another guy

I am very pleased with this offseason

What is wrong with you?

Let me ask a serious question . . . When the Cowboys were Winning while going through the hardest part of our schedule . . .

Were you upset?

Were you throwing things at the TV and cursing Rush?

Matt Stafford led the league in interceptions and won a SB. But let me guess his interceptions are different?

I’d say the coaching staff helped Stafford mire than ours helped Dak. Look what Pederson has done for Lawrence. This will be an interesting year to see how the offense goes without Moore.

We’ve already proven we can win without Dak and we didn’t even have players that were that good.

Andy Dalton had a higher win percentage than Dak the season he had to play and Cooper Rush won 3 of 4.

We can do much better than those 2.

When members blindly defend Dak at all costs they can't be taken seriously in a football conversation.

It goes both ways on that way too often. And the threads derail. That will happen more often during these slow times of the off-season.

My point is the name calling of a coach and player and FO is just stupid to do so. It takes away from what could be a good debatable point.

I didn't say I am not pleased. just because I am not jumping up and down, making outrageous declarations and going wow wow wow, doesn't mean I am not pleased.
but I am not wowed. I am not going gaga over anything this off season.

I was not upset. I was very very happy, but I wasn't content like some people here driving an agenda!!!.
any sane person would tell you we won because of our defense. that's extremely clear, but people just want to look the other way and have this huge Rush Crush, claiming we can find success with a QB nobody wanted..literally!. our offense, in every single category was worse. we won against the Rams, because our defense gifted the offense 9 points. literally!.... when the defense couldn't hold up any longer we got blown out.

any denial that defense got worse as the season wore on?

we have clearly proven we have a bottom 3rd offense in the league without Dak. that's for sure. we have proven we can't get to post season without Dak, even your love fest with Dalton. are you denying the offensive performances?

but you like to stick your head in the sand, making claims. Andy dalton beat three teams at the end of the season who were missing their starting QBs and had major injuries everywhere on their team. he struggled even then to win. that's your love fest with Dalton. we had the whole team and the guy struggled to beat teams with a losing record, who were full of injuries. and in the most important game of the season going against another starting QB in Daniel Jones, he couldn't hit side of a barn if he was standing 3 feet away from it and ended the game in one of the most stupid interceptions I have ever seen.

seems like you like Red Heads given the crush you have on Dalton and Rush.

yeah, stick your head in the sand. hide. Cooper Rush had a 100 yard game we won, because defense gifted him 9 points. literally!. and then he played a tough team and just plain choked. he was a guy anyone in the league could have had...ANYONE. and nobody did.

and I guess you are giving credit for wins/losses to the QB. should we compare Dak's then?

We got 7 years of Dak. We know what he is. I really don’t care about your opinions.

These guys usually win their Superbowls early. Not after getting paid.

We can’t pay Dak and win anything.

When we got to San Francisco this past season he was far and away our biggest advantage and he was far and away our biggest weakness during the game.
