To some a dream scenario with Dak going down

[TwentyOne]

-For those that wanted to see what the team would be like under Dalton, you got it
-For the Dak supporters that claimed the team would fall apart without Dak you got it
-For those that wanted a top 5 draft pick, you may have it
-For those that had any hope of getting Dak at a cheaper price, you may get it
-For those that think Zeke can carry this team, you are about to find out

Yay.

Winning season for only 4 mil.
Guess who did it.

Btw i want a #1 pick.
Now i am down because we play a good QB.

 

[ConstantReboot]

Hope so - cheaper price means a better defense and maybe just maybe Dak or any other Cowboy QB won't have to toss the rock 50+ times a game.

Oh you mean Dlaw and Jaylon Smith? Yeah some cheap defense we got there.

 

[Swagger]

Just watched the game winning drive again - hugely impressive!

Each key throw was different. Very interesting to see how he gets on even with a mangled o line.

Super Bowl.

 

[Section446]

We'll have the same record with Dalton, this is a 7-9 team.

Pressure makes diamonds.
Pressure bursts pipes.

Zeke, Dalton, this defense and our whole coaching staff is now under pressure. Will they rise to the occasion or wither like grapes?

Tune in next week to find out

I think this team and staff will be resilient. This team through misfortune will start believing in itself even more so. It may not always translate into sequential wins but I would be happy seeing competent, competitive growth. If you look at adversity as a surmountable challenge rather than a season death sentence great things can still happen.

 

[Captain-Crash]

and what team won? we can see who the dak fans are and who the Cowboys fans are.

 

[Cmac]

All the reason why Dak should have got his money......shameful in a lot of ways.

 

[Dallasfann]

You aren't getting him for 25-30

And he likely isn't getting his 40+ either.

 

[bigE79]

Dalton has to prove it vs teams with winning records. Same as Dak had to. So this game was just stat padding.

Hell,if dalton can manage 1 win vs a winning team, he should win Cowboys player of the year, since we've haven't beaten one in forever.

 

[conner01]

If Dallas has big success with Dalton, its going to be a wentz / foles scenario here.

This defense will still be bad
This offense will still be very good

So instead of rallying around Dalton and supporting Dallas people choose to bash those who dared to question Dallas resigning Dak to a big contract? Ok.

 

[DFWJC]

This was the best thing to happen to us.

I dont wish no player an injury. But this ends any discussion about Dak getting paid.

Lets watch a good QB play with this offense and all discussion will come to an end.

We already faced the 3 worst pass defenses in the league (Seattle, Atlanta, Cleve) so I wouldn't expect many 400 yard games the rest of the season.

That would be true regardless of who was at QB.
Dal thru for for 260 vs the Rams and was heading for about the same vs the Giants.


Just win, baby.

btw, Dak and Dalton are both class acts.
They’ll continue to have each others backs.

 

[Denim Chicken]

All the arguments about Dak don't matter anymore, al least for now. Let's just win some games.

 

[McKDaddy]

This defense is clearly not good enough to sniff a playoff win,

exactly. so it puts you in a dilemna. every victory you might be able to squeak out weakens your draft equity.

the best thing for our long term would be to find out who you can build around while securing the #1 pick. if Andy balls out, it gives you options of using the pick on Trevor or trading it for a boatload. that boatload could go along ways toward replacing a lot of folks that should never wear the star again.

second best thing would be to at least secure a top 5 pick. not nearly as fruitful as #1 but almost certain that a really good player falls to you and you pick early in every round.

Hope so - cheaper price means a better defense and maybe just maybe Dak or any other Cowboy QB won't have to toss the rock 50+ times a game.

Money is not why our defense is bad at all. Nearly every defensive player on this roster was brought in to play in Marinelli’s system. These guys are not designed for Nolan’s system which requires the DL to be more stout against blocks rather than shooting gaps. Roster turnover and a few good drafts will fix it not gobs of money thrown at free agents.

 

[G2]

My expectations of QBs is sky high.

Dalton better be perfect.

no, he is saying that the Dak bashers may get their day in court......you all wanted dalton. you got it.....let y our excuses begin

 

[Redline360]

Granted i wanted Dalton to get some time as I honestly believe with this team we would get nearly identical results. However, not this way. God bless for speedy recovery.

Dak is obviously better than Dalton imo.

If I was Dak I wouldn't come back to the cowboys regardless of injury or not. Go get your payday and play for a real organization. You deserve better

 

[McKDaddy]

all discussion will come to an end.

no matter the topic, discussion will not end on the board regardless of the evidence.
