Overcrowded. That's why they've invaded the Earth a few times.

Lol, I would love to see Tad's reaction to this. Sometimes I wonder if he's a member of this board and is reading all this. I think Skip Bayless is.A CowboysZone member should volunteer-and-tweet Tad about the poll here and set him off. I would do it myself but I am not on Twitter.
You know this is a good point. The report said Dak wanted to be paid "close to Mahomes". We interpret that as he wants 44 million. Mahomes contract is very back loaded.Need to run those numbers over the next 3-4 years...or the length of Dak's expected contract term.
The numbers are much lower...especially Mahomes'
Amen brother. Get it done one way or another and let everyone move on with life.At this point I don't much care, either get the d*** thing done, or move on. But make up your Fn minds
It has been a few seasons as well, but remember Wentz/Goff getting just below that total and were in the 33-34 range. Even those were team killing contracts, so not sure why Dak is "due" so to speak but do understand the QB contract inflation going on and needing to overpay to keep your own. That's where I range him just more from precedent/fairness as he is better than those two but not better than Wilson. Watson got more than Wilson too so it's happened since, etc. and likely going to happen again when they renew Allen in BUF.That's more about the insane QB market where each contract is higher than the previous one. Doesn't make sense to me because not all starting QBs are created equal, but that's how it has been going for years now. Whoever is next line to get paid will get even more because teams are paying the best guy they have like he's the best guy in the league.
The only outlier has been Mahomes, but a few contracts from now the next guy will be approaching his numbers. Something has to give at some point. These contracts are team killers and few, if any, QBs can overcome the deficiencies around them (created by their own contract).

I'd rather slightly overpay than let an above average at worst QB1 leave and potentially have nothing for years.

your logic and analysis is flawed.Why would I want my bonus contingent on dragging a garbage defense along for the ride?
Both of Dak's playoff losses came when the opponent scored 30+. The Cowboys have never won a playoff game when the opponent scored 30+.
I was on board with the Dallas philosophy of building the team to score points and then the defense can sit back and play with a lead. This season shattered that thinking for me and it also shattered the idea that we need a all pro at QB to win it all. Before Dak got hurt we still weren't getting it done against playoff teams due to our defense. I admit Dak played great but great QB play can not overcome a weak defense that can't stop anyone or get turnovers. This super bowl with Tampa Bay proved that even more. They were harassing Mahomes all night and Brady is the GOAT and all but he didn't play lights out. He played well but the defense won that game for TB.your logic and analysis is flawed.
using that type logic means this last season GB, Rams , NO, Wash,KC, Pitt, all had garbage defenses, as they allowed 30 + in a playoff game and lost.
people blame the dallas defense, but the Dallas offense simply did not score enough to expect to win.
The 2016 game with GB was the exception, as Dallas did score 31.
But they only scored 3 in 1st , and 0 in the 3rd qtr! what if they had scored 6 in the first, and 3 in the 3rd? then GB could not have won with last second FG.
I looked at playoff scores, and teams that win score 30+ unless they are playing a weak offensive team then they dont need to score that much to win.
TB scored 30+ in all their playoff games and SB, so I guess all their opponents have a garbage defense like Dallas?
Bottom line is their is more to winning playoff games than just good or bad defense or offense. There are other factors.
