The trouble with that is Gruden was terrible at drafting. in Tampa each year he was there they got worse. Everywhere he went the teams got worse the longer he was there.

14:50 I feel as a Cowboys fan, I’d extend Dak’s contract and ride it out with him and the players. The Coach and GM is not the exception, because the Cowboys have so much talent and players primes and contract issues will become an issue 2024-2025 and 2026-2027 (2027 draft pick). Cowboys need to win right now, if coach Mike can’t do it than it’s a coaching change, Dak did good last year, Dak would have been better than great but amazing 14:50 this year if he had a Zeke. Derrick Henry would have been a nightmare. Next year we need to run the ball more to give the defense more rest and we need to either keep Pollard as a 16-20 rush back with 4-5 catches (he’s amazing when he does this) and then we need to get a Derrick Henry type cus that will do it. Now on defense spend all the money on Chris Jones!!!! We have a 3-4 year window with prime and talent players, only if Dak extend his contract since it’s more about coaching imo.

[@melodymaker135]

Interesting final discussion there about how you’ll probably know early whether your QB can take you to the Super Bowl. I think the financial aspect Nick mentioned is the real reason (young QB is cheap so you can afford to build a great roster around him). I don’t think the other half of his reasoning, about how ‘they don’t improve that much,’ is so valid. Because in a slightly earlier era, with a fairly similar game but different financial reward structure, you had tons of late-bloomer Super Bowl QBs (where to even begin? Plunkett, Ken Anderson, Theisman, Doug Williams, Craig Morton - I think most of these guys were over thirty and several not on their original teams. Heck, Drew Brees might’ve been 30). So I think it’s gotta be mostly the money factor.

[@jamesmerkel1932]

Cold take. Why were Lamar and Dak in the MVP convo at all? They weren't the best performers and missed the superbowl when it mattered. Dak never really took the cowboys anywhere but to the couch. Lamar has never been a QB, but a runningback in disguise, which was blasted on international television with the chiefs when they caged him in the pocket and forced him to throw. I can go on if you'd like, I've got a lot of stats I can start bringing up for you.

[@RexJacobus-bb1vw]

@@jamesmerkel1932 I'm not sure where your disagreement is? Elaborate

[@jamesmerkel1932]

@RexJacobus-bb1vw I was illustrating how to bring up a valid criticism of a player. So here's how I can tell you don't know what you're just repeating what a talking head said without putting any thought into it objectively. If you want a system quarterback, you can't find someone to scramble when that system fails and still find a target or a lane for a first down/td. If you want a system qb, they can't have the best performance under pressure stats of the entire season and the playoffs, especially with a bottom 10 o-line. If you want a system quarterback, they can't have the majority of the best stats for a qb in that season. If you want a system qb, they can't be able to win in more than one way. If you want a system qb, they can't come back from a 17 point deficit. Yet Purdy has accomplished all of these and more. The reality is every quarterback is part of a system. Mid qbs get carried by the system, good qbs can carry that system. Great qbs elevate that system. Currently Purdy has proven he's a good quarterback, and if he repeats this kind of performance next season, which is likely, he'll start proving he's a great quarterback. He doesn't have nearly the tenure of the other qbs, and yet he's competing with and beating them. The narrative he's carried by his team is the weakest one out there. It doesn't matter if someone has every weapon in the game, if they can't get the ball down field to them, the weapons don't matter. If a quarterback chokes under pressure, the weapons don't matter.

[@justfacts68]

I don’t see how they are not talking about dak staring down the receivers before he throws it to them. not giving the team chances on 3rd and long.

So why should Dak get extended again for such a high number? It’s baffling

[@JonKlinkel]

It would be MORONIC to pay Dak that much. It WAS moronic to pay him what they did, already. They should switch to Cooper Rush and lower their QB cap hit.

The reason Bill will go to Dallas, Jerry is willing to do anything RIGHT NOW to win. They are on the same timeline.

I wish Jerry Jones meant that he’s not extending Dak.

Freud said it.

Besides the run game that we all know the Cowboys need, they didn't have a great tight end showing this year. There was spurts of nice tight end play, but not like Dalton Shultz type of play. And the coaching needs an overhaul. They need to fix their issues. They don't prepare well for certain games. If it's goes south in the beginning, they cannot adjust and make the plays to stay on the field.

Ferguson was pretty good

Nick, I'm proud of you. I put you on the BUD list for having too much faith in Dak, and you're basically saying what I've been saying since the Dak contract business started 5 or 6 years ago. This guy can only win the Super Bowl if he makes less than 30 million a year. I completely agree that running it back isn't going to get the 'Boys anywhere. They need to trade Dak, or get him to sign for 3 years 75 million instead of 3 years 175 million. Also, Brou, "he put them on his back, and they beat tomato cans" 🤣

Niners made it to Superbowl with sophomore for only 1 million......wow😊
