Green Bay had Favre and did not move on from four until they were sure on Aaron Rodgers.
Many years later, Green Bay did not move on from Aaron Rodgers until they were sure Jordan Love was the guy.
The Colts did not move on from Peyton Manning until they had Andrew Luck.
Successful organizations don’t move on from guys until they have the guy.
If you don’t have a plan, it could be several 5-11 seasons (like Washington since cousins left).
So unless he drafts a qb, he would gambling the franchises stability and worth. Or he would have to believe in Trey Lance.
In 2016, I saw Dallas play Cleveland in Cleveland. Cleveland was winless (0-8?) and the fans that did show up (very little), all left by the end of the first quarter. Concession stands, etc. had no lines.
I don’t think he moves on until he has the guy in house. He moved on from Romo because he had Dak. He has shown that awareness in the past. And Dak and Dallas have made the playoffs consistently, he needs to step up in the playoffs.
It’s Jerry’s money, he has to pay Dak until he has someone better. He knows it, Dak knows it.
Go Cowboys!
You clearly have recency bias. When they moved on from Favre, Rodgers was still an unknown and unproven. Same thing with Love. He has a great year but let's see years 2, 3, 4.
All of you cowboys fans they are holding on to dear life for Dak, have the same weird, messed up mentality. You are holding on to mediocrity, in a league that mediocrity rarely wins. You have to get over your "safe" mindset. If you aren't trying, you are dying in the NFL. Either by record or by sales. Either way you have to make moves.
One of the main reasons we are in this drought is because Jerry switched from a mover and shaker, to a hold and be safe mentality. It shows every year for the last 30 years.
He is so hesitant to release players, break contracts, fire coaches, etc.
Dak isnt it. So let's draft a new guy and try again. I'm happy when we are trying. I hate when we keep running it back with the same failure.
