  1. Do realize people, the reason businesses incorporate themselves is to dodge personal responsibility/liability for their actions. Their ability to do so was a back room deal with our elected officials that were supposed to be protecting the citizens interests many many years ago, now the non living entities called businesses have more legal protections than we citizens. That hat company just got over Five million of we tax payers dollars for the sole reason to keep people employed, what’s those lyrics.. ooh ooh, take the money and run...

    Dak is so overrated.  Surrounded by elite talent and still can't get it done.  Couldn't even win by far the worst division in the league last year.  Stat monster, but not a winner.  At least Stafford has an excuse for losing.

    How does a guy who leads his team to 9-7 and no playoffs get ranked in the top ten? He has been  up and down over the last four years,  like you said, big on personal stats but one playoff win with all that talent doesn’t make a top ten QB. I wonder how much Jurra gave up for that bit of propaganda...

  3. This whole pandemic has been poorly handled since we knew about it as far back as before January,  far to many of our officials and our citizens have acted and are still acting so stupidly that Diggs is right to be very concerned.

     

    Look at what we Americans have done to ourselves and each other, one would have to be a mental midget to not be worried about what is happening throughout our country.

     

    It truly sucks, but we have brought this upon ourselves. We should not be wanting to purposefully put others at risk for our entertainment,  purposes,  what does that say about us, are we so narrow in our thoughts?

     

    Me, I’m a high risk category guy, congestive heart failure, blood type A,  DVT/PE history, over sixty, if I catch this, it  kills me.

  4. That old sayings:  “Ya just can’t fix stupid” comes to mind. That and the classic,  “tis better to be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt”. 
     

    Does anyone teach or learn about History in school any more , or is the actual reality of how horrible humans treat each other just to much for the snowflakes out there to have to learn about?  Humans are doomed.

    Really? Quoting yourself to add fuel? 

     

    Either you think too too much of yourself, or the rest of us don’t.

    Big thumbs, unintentional,

    Dallas scored 434 points.  How is their record his fault?  Just say that you hate the Cowboys, hate Dak, and hate pretty much every player without a Bison on his helmet.  Pretending that a fourth year QB who just had the best season of his career by a mile in every statistical category is the problem, has peaked, etc. is asinine.  He is miles and miles ahead of Allen at this point.  If Dak fell from where he currently is and landed where Josh is, he’d be dead on impact.  The Cowboys have plenty of problems, but a QB who threw for 4,900 yards, 30 TDs, against only 11 INTs isn’t one of them.

    He’s the defacto team leader, team loses the team leader loses, that’s how the cookie crumbles,

    How many points did our D score last season.... crickets...  ?

     

    all QBs want to win over every other QB, it’s ego and bragging rights, so there is always pressure for a QB to out perform the QB on the other team, that’s a given. 

    Awe, come on now, you don’t think Dak wanted to beat Josh in the worst way on a nation wide broadcasted game? ?

    Dak is a good QB

    Yes he is, but he is certainly not a great QB, thus far, I suspect we have seen all Dak has to offer, I think he has already peaked. His individual stats are certainly good, but he and his team under perform. Look at the talent on that team, he’s not getting it done. The truth is, team success is the actual true measure of a QBs success.

     

    There are below average teams, average teams, good teams, and great teams, This Dak lead team is between average and good, as of late not so good. Jmo,

    I do but we disagree on who is mad. If you said “Dallas is pissed ?“ I wouldn’t have commented. I interpreted the smiley face as laughing AT the pissed off party. It wasn’t just you either. Others had the same reaction. 
     

    The point remains that giant contracts, at the same position, are great for impending free agents. They celebrate them because it means they will be getting more. That’s true in all cases. 

    And I did not disagree I merely insinuated that Daks team hasn’t given him what he wants, unlike Pats team, I thought folk would pick up on that. Oh well I guess,

    Dak doesn’t care if they look like smart or idiots. He cares that he gets paid. He’s not furious about this. He’s THRILLED. That’s why I originally chimed in. This is a great development for him (and Watson, Lamar, etc).

    And I did not say it wasn’t so, I merely pointed out the obvious differences in  the success of two QBs, 

  12. 11 minutes ago, Kirby Jackson said:

    This is, inarguably, a win for Dak (and all QBs). Josh Allen is having a great day. Sam Darnold is having a great day. Baker Mayfield is having a great day. Lamar Jackson is having the 2nd best day.

    That doesn’t matter though. QBs get paid regardless. Jared Goff, Carson Wentz, Jimmy G, etc... this is a HUGE win for Dak. It’s a loss for Dallas now. Dak will get more in 8 months than he would have weeks ago. He’s looking at like like 4 years and $160M with $120M guaranteed (plus the $33M or whatever from this year). That’s more than he asked for.

    Oh yeah, I forgot about him!! Good call

    It may not matter as you said,  except it makes GMs and owner look like fools.

    Lol it always comes down to the Thanksgiving game. Bills fans have really gotten more ignorant.

    Well, we are all just following your lead there Chans... what with your remarkable takes and all, nuthin but luv slim, ?

    Dak wasn’t asking for more than Mahomes got.

    But he is asking far to much per his job requirement of creating team success. I mean Christ, a 2nd year project QB made him look bad on national tv, on thanksgiving no less. 
    I would not be at all surprised when the Dak lead cowboys don’t make the playoffs again. 

  14. 23 minutes ago, Kirby Jackson said:

    I think the exact opposite. He will play this year on the tag but then probably gets like $38M-$40M a year for 4 years. A giant contract is a good thing for all of the others at his position not the opposite. Mahomes is obviously the best player in the world so I don’t expect the next guy to top it but it resets the market in Dak’s (and all QBs) favor. 

    It may very well end up that way, but there is a stark difference between Pat and Dak, and pay, one would think we be reflect actual performance slash success. On a team success level Dak has been average, while Patrick has been awesome.
