News: TS: NFL Insider Does Not Expect Dak Prescott To Get Contract Extension In 2024

[Brax]

0% chance they make it to the championship game on that cap hit. That would mean zero free agents, zero trades and cutting multiple players

You really believe they have a chance on the CCG next season, look at the O vs D cap dollars. Nothing is changing with Dak under center unless he plays sub 500 teams in both playoff games

 

[HungryLion]

We cant get under the cap with Daks contract.

That 60 million dead cap is a killer.

next add his 34 million salary.

#Lance

The cowboys absolutely could get under the cap with Dak’s contract as is.

 

[kskboys]

Like I said......perhaps the intent is to force him to play his final year with a skeleton team. If he can still get us to playoffs and win a game or two, he gets a big extension offer. If not ........both move on. But if/when the season starts going south, you have to see what Lance can do.

We have to, yes, but judging from the past, we won't.

Not easily. You ready to cut Martin and DLaw and Diggs?

 

[Brax]

You're talking about dumping players such as Martin. Sure you want to do that?

Absolutely trade him for anything, there’s one or two others and a host of cuts post and pre June. It’s not rocket science it’s addition by subtraction, what you do at the end of 24 season is determined by the results and you start with large cap room in 25

These guys have a different take

That's what I would do also, but in doing so you are tanking the 24 season. Jerry won't. He's not bright enough to understand tanking and how much it can mean to your future.

Correct me if I'm wrong but they have to be under the cap before the start of the free agency/new league year. Meaning we will know a lot about what they plan to do within the next 30 days or so.

Wonder how many more years will be wasted on this failed experiment?

It’s an experiment every time you add a young QB. As for trading a pick for a young QB, the Cowboys have only done that twice with Drew Henson and Trey Lance. The Texans realized Henson couldn’t play and the Cowboys were desperate and took a shot. The 49ers figured out Lance couldn’t play so to cover themselves in the event they moved on from Dak, the Cowboys decided to take a chance on Lance. They figured he likely has a better chance of amounting to something than a QB in the 4th round this April.

Sadly, they’ll drag this out like it may or may not happen. They’ll make it happen last minute

It’s not like the Cowboys control the timeline by themselves. Dak and his agent also control the timeline.

 

[HungryLion]

I didnt say easily. You could restructure Martin, Diggs, and Dlaw and that gets you under the cap.

Cut LVE. And cut Gallup (post June 1). And you have money for draft picks.

They won’t be active players in free agency, but they never really are anyway so what else is new.

 

[big dog cowboy]

the defense 100% was trash

Bland? DLaw? Micah? Plus many others were solid.

 

[Rockport]

He’ll get an extension. There’s a reason he was 2nd in MVP voting. He’s that good. QB’s don’t play defense. They can’t stop the run. QB’s don’t run block. You dummies don’t understand football if you put all the blame on Dak. In order to win in the NFL you must be able to run the ball and stop the run. It’s most important in December and January when it’s cold and the playoffs are on. Yet you yahoos continue to put all the blame on Dak. And all of you look dumb doing it.

We sure will find out a lot soon.

Dude you just lost all credibility in here from me,​

​

absolutely not you're trying to blame the offense for a defense that couldn't stop that Packers team from the first snap to the last snap a defense that gave up 21 straight points out of the half you know it'd be odd and ironic if we had the 49ers defense who made enough stops and bowed their back up enough to allow that offense to have time to make a comeback in the second-half and ours just puked all over the field probably literally if you listen to what tank said they were all really tired they had Boo boos and they couldn't make it through a game... And we could go all the way through all the losses in the regular season and pretty much it was on the defense more than it was on the offense that's a fact go watch the games again...​

Seriously if you were gonna point out one large part for a reason we lost that game it was the defense yes the offense was bad I'm not arguing that but please don't say they were the main reason the main reason was because the defense wasn't gonna make a single stop all game you would have had to score 45 points to win that game hey Lamar Jackson how'd that Ravens defense do in the playoffs that's right three points in one game 17 points in the second game which came with a showdown and that offense only scored ten points I would say the reason they lost that game was because of the Ravens offense that's pretty easy to see that defense did all they could after the second quarter to make sure that offense had a chance to make a comeback our defense puked all over the field..

So let's go back to 2022 sure the offense didn't play great but it was a very close game but Trayvon diggs dropped a sure interception and didn't go make a big hit on what also nobody brings up how did that big pass get thrown on us alright the defense gave it up and they didn't make the hit to dislodge it when he was bobbling the ball they also gave up drives in that game they did not play like the Ravens defense they did not play like the 86 bears or the 2000 Ravens defense or some of the best defenses in the league with the give up under 13 points a game you're giving credit to this defense when they were a problem as well..​

Let's go back to 2021 there were 14 penalties in that game and yeah eleven were on the offensive line so somehow that leads back to Prescott again in another one score game... Well that covers the last three games these are team losses but if you think this year was the main reason was offense you did not watch the game you must have listened to some friends who also didn't watch the game maybe you watched it on a Bleacher Report?? Somehow you believe because there were some mistakes made in the first half with some interceptions and some failed drives that it's on the offense when we saw a team like the 49ers getting the same hole we saw a team in the Ravens that gave up seventeen points in the first half and somehow their team somehow to make adjustments and their defense has found a way to shut down or at least slow down the other team...

But I love it when fans come in and say the main reason and the last three losses were the offense and I'm telling you it was ohh team losses but this last game the entire team and coaches were bad there was no main reason it was pretty much all in bad...​

But I love the example I gave you because it's very obvious that the 49ers had the same problems in the first half against the lions but their defense found a way to make stops gave that offense a chance to make up for their mistakes just like we saw in 2021 you know Matthew Stafford threw 20 interceptions and two of them were in the Super bowl but they didn't lose that game they didn't use the excuse their quarterback made a mistake and that if unless he's perfect they have to win a game...

Defense for sure has a lot of the blame but offense was the main reason imo. Especially the two 49ers games. Offense was part of the reason for the loss in 2016 vs gb also. Either way it was a team failure. But I don't put it all on dak.

You got it!

That's what I would do also, but in doing so you are tanking the 24 season. Jerry won't. He's not bright enough to understand tanking and how much it can mean to your future.

Tanking the season isn’t a given, if Dak is elite he can prove it, KC has already shown that. It’s not the 12-5 that matters it’s the end result, Dak MM and DQ have 1 season to prove their worth simple as that

 

[Brax]

That 1 pity vote is the difference maker compared to his choking performances. Let’s extend the misery for a few more seasons, brilliant, you are probably right unfortunately but Jerry will sell the crap show Just like always and folks like you will be eating his crap non stop and crying about falling while propping up one of the major contributors of the team’s choking history

Bland? DLaw? Micah? Plus many others were solid.

Yeah, the defense was trash and almost all the losses and that game against Green Bay....

I don't remember many stops pretty sure they gave up seven points on 75% of the drives,

I don't care what player may have made a play here there they were bad, period ,as a group they were bad!!

I don't even know how you defend that... They gave up 21 straight points out of halftime that's something the 49ers defense didn't do the 49ers defense had the same problem their team was down by the same amount of points at halftime and they made stops the Ravens defense gave up zero points in the second-half I watched so many defenses in the playoffs actually looked like defenses that can make stops without turnovers I was jealous I wasn't looking over at their quarterbacks I was watching how little their quarterbacks had to do as far as risk taking our quarterback would have been asked to score on every drive and not put like the Seattle game except this was a playoff game and yes the offense did play poorly but expectations that he would have played better they would have won no they wouldn't because the defense wasn't making stops....

You win championships with defense first correct defense wins championships right now we don't have anything even close to resembling that type of defense that was the overrated preseason expectations they were talking about needing a name the last couple years... It never came together they were just bad against almost all the good teams like Buffalo Prescott gave him a one point lead with four minutes left in the Miami game that didn't work either it didn't it doesn't work when you're defense doesn't make stops they need to make enough stops and that means stops early not giving up seven minute drives and then a missed field goal makes you feel good that time of possession that they're allowing is just as bad as giving up a score sometimes....​

​

They were walked down the field more times than I can ever remember a defense on the 1st Dr. of the game and the first drive of the second-half I mean they were just poor yeah it was trashed the defense on a whole as a group played like doodoo...​

​

I'm not making excuses for our offense but I'm saying if you seen anything look good in that game against Green Bay where the defense can be patted on the back and say man if it wasn't for our offense no that's not how it works I've seen lots of teams have their quarterbacks make mistakes in the first half NB able to write the ship make stops and allow the offense to get going and make adjustments and the whole team did not do that...​

​

So I'm blaming the team but if you're gonna get on the quarterback I'm gonna remind you that the defense was some of the worst defense I've ever seen and all the losses A and the Seattle win.. That Seattle win was a window into what was gonna happen with this defense this is what this defense is when it doesn't make stops they allow teams to just easily go down the field if it wasn't for some timely strips of the football we have lost that Eagles game as well... Why because look at how easy they were moving the ball up until the point the ball was removed from the runner's hand easily dashing this defense constantly...​

​

So again, if we wanna talk about the team being bad and that's why changes were needed we could talk about that but if you're gonna blame me quarterback and say that it was mainly on them and him and the offense then I'm gonna tell you somebody's delusional and looking for someone to pick on and that's where the name hater comes from if that's what you derived from these losses that somebody wasn't paying attention because they really wanted to blame Prescott so they were gonna do it no matter if they watched the game or not.​

Who are you presuming will replace Martin?
