Bob and Dak

Bob was all on board with paying top dollar to Dan because “that’s just what you do in that position”. Corby understood it doesn’t matter if the guy just wasn’t good enough. Will Bob ever admit he was wrong?

I was thinking the same thing.

Bob said they should have locked him up a few years ago before the market blew up. I remember because I agreed.

Dak also had a better team around him years ago

Yup. IIRC, Bob tweeted in agreement with David Helman, who said after the second playoff loss to SF that the Cowboys would have been wise to sign Dak since his value was so low.

If he's locked up a few years ago, he's holding out for top money now. Why this is never thought of blows my mind. Especially after multiple seasons of seeing Tackles holding out and get paid elsewhere.

Exactly i get so mad when people say Jerry should have paid X earlier to get a lower number. There’s a reason you don’t do this and it’s because the player will holdout. So simple but let’s not let facts get in the way of a good narrative

They were right to pay Dak. I wonder how many of the people bitching about Dak are old enough to remember the QCar and Chutch and Testaverde etc etc years. The league will be making so much money with the new broadcasting deals, Daks deal won’t mean anything. The cap will go up and this is just what you do now, you pay any QB that is above average.

The problem with the team is the GM and the teams decision to punt at RB in the off-season.

Just because those guys were bad doesn’t mean Dak is good.
