Gugny Posted May 27, 2020 Share Posted May 27, 2020 (edited) 36 minutes ago, FireChans said: Sorry dude, an NFL QB being asked to pass is only “setting them up for failure” if the QB blows it. I don’t care if you blame Daboll or not, but Allen blew it. Indisputably. I totally get that argument. I really do. With an NFL QB, the OC should be able to call passing plays and have said plays executed. I will not deny that Josh sucked down the stretch in that game. The best comparison I can make to help exemplify my feelings is the late-game play-calling by Atlanta in the ATL/NE Super Bowl. I'm pretty sure most will agree that their arrogance and rigidity to "keep doing what got them there," (a lot of passing) killed them. The Falcons were absolutely stupid to keep passing the ball and, because they did, Murphy's Law kicked them in the nuts. I feel the same way about the HOU playoff game. Should they be able to call those plays without concern? YES. But with a 2nd year NFL who struggles with consistency and fumbles .... WHY push the envelope with a late-game lead?? That's my beef.

Call_Of_Ktulu Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 Dak plays great vs teams with losing records and average/poor vs teams with winning records. I can’t believe Dallas is going to give him that contract. It will be fun watching that team implode from the salary cap going down instead of up in the next two years.

They’re already paying 100 million for cooper which he’s not worth and they’re paying Elliott close to a 100 million and now they want to pay Prescott over 100-200 million? Yeah that’s not happening lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah that’s not happening lol They can pay all of them. But it will start to show on the defensive side of the ball and overall team depth. I'm not sure they can trade Prescott and get the value they would most likely want. And they don't have a better option waiting in the wings. Dalton has proven to only get a team to a certain level. Paying Cooper and Elliott is a waste if they don't sign Prescott back. They won't be bad enough to get a perceived top QB in the draft. Jerry effed this one up.

Don Otreply Posted June 22, 2020 Share Posted June 22, 2020 Frankly, Dak is not likely to be any better than he has shown, the word “plateaued” comes to mind, he’s good but not real good. Paying him that kind of money is a waste of your number one resource, ? ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Dak’s most recent year was his best. It’s certainly possible he takes another small step forward. He’s a top 10ish QB now. I don’t think that he ever gets to top 5 because he’s a little limited physically but he’s good. If you have a good QB you should take care of him. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s done nothing to deserve that kind of contract. Dallas is Elliott’s team not Prescott’s. Prescott to me is just a better version of Tyrod Taylor. You cave in and pay Prescott what he wants, then say goodbye to any chance of getting a super bowl 30 minutes ago, Kirby Jackson said: And Dak’s most recent year was his best.

That team financially will fall apart They’ll have something like 9 of their best 10 players under contract for at least 3 years. The Cowboys can do it easily and have the rest of the core guys locked up long term (Martin, T Smith, Zeke, Cooper, Lawrence, J Smith, Lamb, Gallup, etc...). The Cowboys went a different route than everyone else and signed the roster before the QB. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Noggin Posted June 22, 2020 Share Posted June 22, 2020 What about the facts--that Prescott's numbers over the past two seasons are STRONG and also that his overall production improved considerably LAST season--gives people here so much pause? Is it really just that the young, media-derided QB of the Bills went into Dallas on national holiday TV and had an efficient, effective, WINNING game with a signature play or two? Prescott didn't play poorly in that game at all, and was in fact far MORE productive. I think his stat-line for that game would give thirsty Bills fans chubbies for days. So what is it? Why not Prescott? (I know his team hasn't won anything forever. What else?) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StHustle Posted June 22, 2020 Share Posted June 22, 2020 Some TERRIBLE takes on Dak in here. Do you guys actually watch him play? He is better than any QB the bills had the past 20 years INCLUDING Josh Allen (hopefully Josh passes him this year) But no way do you let a QB that good walk nor do you trade him. They could EASILY go a decade before getting another QB ass good or better... 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
