Pretty sure that's Tony's agent too if I'm not too much mistaken.

Because, it's always happened. And stuff. Dez isn't God and he is not irreplaceable, Chicken Little. You might not have been paying attention, but I was calling for Dallas to draft a WR in the first round, just because of this contract situation. But like I already, said, happy with the WR crop...

Nice little crop of FA wideouts signed already, one of which of course we all know probably would have been a 3rd or 4th round pick - Antwan Goodley. Here's significant FAs signed right now: Reggie Dunn - 5-9 178 journeyman, on practice squad currently. George Farmer - 6-1 220 and runs a 10.4...

It doesn't matter a whit. If no dez, someone or more than one will step up, and you'll still have a passing game. It's silly to think that without Dez our offense just crumbles. Might be able to make that case with the QB, but not the wideout. The sky won't fall if we lose Dez. In fact we might...

Okay, I stand corrected. Mea Culpa. I looked it up and with the tag designation, they have to get a deal done before that deadline, or must wait until next season. I'm still at the point I always was, if Dez doesn't get any other offers and doesn't like Dallas' deal he will play this season...

I haven't seen anything like that. If Dez does not sign the tender, he can still do a long term deal instead. The deadline is for him to either sign or not, it doesn't stop them from still doing a deal.

That's the exact nature of this league. There are 20 or so mediocre, so-so teams that with the right breaks and sheer dumb fucking luck, can turn in a 12-4 year. Again, we see here you seem to believe we just won't be able to complete any passes without Dez, ignoring the fact that we and other...

That is the deadline for Dez to sign the tag tender. Not any kind of deadline for Dallas to still do a deal.

So, what is your prognosis for the future? I noticed you skipped that and instead gave me the standard o-line overhype. Wait, let me guess. "If we lose Dez we're probably 1-15" or some such? Dallas is one of the 20 or so mediocre teams in this league that can have a fluke 12-4 year. It's...

Applying the tag doesn't in any way hamper them from still doing a deal, long term.

Because it's like, always happened. Where's all the other teams beating down the door to sign Dez, if he's so fucking great? He's been on the market now what, a few months? :rofl3

So you think that magically, Dallas just improved from nearly 20 years of mediocrity, to a actual good team. And is poised now to keep winning at this rate and maybe even win a Super Bowl. Stop me if I'm wrong. Really can't wait to hear this one.

Sure they can. Why would they not be able to? By the way, the biggest problem Dez has and what will eventually make him wind up doing a deal? Nobody's breaking down his door with any offers. Wonder why that is, if he is so fucking great?

Wow it seems like people will still be catching passes if Dez leaves.

No, I give dumb luck most of the credit. And a bunch of that dumb luck - Tony's injury - is why we were running the ball so much. Dumb luck gets a mediocre 8-8 team, four more wins. But dumb luck runs out, and that mediocre team loses in the playoffs.

No, I saw really lousy quarterbacks eat us alive. Over and over again with no answers from us. I saw a Green Bay team with a crippled quarterback still beat us. We didn't have one creative Lop, Flop, stunt or blitz to use to even lay a glove on him. I saw our league leading running back fumble...

Somehow, the passes always seem to get caught by somebody. And yes, it will be the same mediocre 8-8 team it is.

I sure did, still do and I also saw and heard many other people do so as well. 8-8 is competitive. But let me explore this further. I didn't see passing numbers hurt by Owens' departure. In fact, the passing numbers never have been affected by personnel changes other than the QB. You act like...

I'm not begrudging him, I am simply realizing we might not be able to afford him. The whole thing is just, goofy isn't it? But it makes me feel a little bit better knowing Condon is calling the shots - maybe it won't be as hostile as I was thinking.

He's got to play the leverage card he has to get the deal he wants. Otherwise there's no pressure on Dallas to cave in.
