What's wrong with tanking? What is right with tanking

[GimmeTheBall!]

Yes, the aggravation and frustration level is high among fans of the Dallas Cowboys.

Dak and Zeke, one promising, one a skilled player, are showing us their greed and selfishness with a generous but befuddled Jerry.

I say let these players show us how good they are and offer them new contracts NEXT YEAR.

Or let them walk.

And let's tank.
And next draft, the Dallas Cowboys, with the 5th overall pick of the 2020 draft, pick

Justin Herbert, QB, Oregon
Or Jake Fromm of Georgia
Or Shea Pattertson of Michigan.
All are as promising or more promising than Dak.

As for RB?
When Zeke waddles back from Cabo, Tony Pollard will keep his seat warm.

$40 mil a year?
$15 mil a year?

Won't budge? Won't honor contracts?
Let them walk. Let them sit. Or be traded for WR and defensive help.
We'll tank and be better equipped for the long haul, mates!

Only took 1 preseason game to get the tank threads going.

I totally disagree sorry. That just doesn't set a good example in the locker room. Never tank never. Players understand salary issues and they don't hold it against one another. Taboo. No you just put your first foot forward and keep playing

better than most years which discuss them after one snap in said game

 

[GimmeTheBall!]

Losers tank

And aggregate years of 8-8 are OK with you?
Uh-hum, that gets us a 15 pick year after year.

 

[GimmeTheBall!]

wow the stupidity

And ... you are here to join the stupidity or contribute to it?
Thanks for stopping by. Heh.

If you don’t think the top 8 guys on the team wince a little at Dak asking for 40 mill, and think to themselves the more he gets the less they will have to pay me, then I think you are a bit naive.

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

So you waste a prime year of your prime players in the hope that a quarterback develops? That's dumb take but I guess whatever gets you your dream qb.

Apparently Dak never asked for 40 million. Just more BS rumors coming from Jerry's side that fans ate up.

His high stock stems from his physical and skill sets and leadership.

Your hero Dak did not set the world on fire at Mississippi State. Yet, we picked him on speculation.

You obviously dont know much.

No, prairie flower, it took a preseason of contract drama with first Zeke now Dak.

You and @waldoputty get a room!!!

 

[bodi]

don't think we will have to tank i don't think Dak well play any better so i am looking for a 7 -8 season maybe worse

Pattersons skill set is crap..I'm far from a dak lover..if you want to suggest other options, don't suggest crappy ones

Losers quit. Last time the Cowboys were 8-8? Oh wait that is too much work for you? 2013. They are 48-32 since then with 1 losing season due a losing their starting QB and bunch of crappy backups. 1 losing season. You ok with that?

2014 Dallas started 0-1. Should they have quit then? Or how about last year starting 3-5. Should have they quit then?

When is it OK with you to quit? When is it ok to be a loser and pack it in for the season? After 1 preseason game? WHEN?

 

[acr731]

Losers tank

Losers also aim for pro bowl appearances rather than super bowl appearances. Do you think anyone on the Patriots roster gives two spits about the pro bowl? No, they want to play in the game the following week. If you're playing in one game it means you aren't playing in the other.
