In an era where this was RARE. This is why it is silly to compare them to Romo in any way. They did it in a time where you could actually hit the quarterback and rough-up the receivers. Romo did it in a era where the QB and receivers are heavily protected. It's like comparing flag football with...
Because they don't have any money to sign their draft picks this year.
I'm okay with cutting Dez after June 1. He's not the guy we need for the chemistry aspect. He's not the "third triplet" - that guy isn't found yet. Hopefully we get him via this draft.
I'm not 100 percent sure Jerruh has the...
A difference which makes no difference, is no difference. Cutting him June 2 STILL saves a LOT more than the 16 million he would make if he stays.
I stand corrected. You get the one year of dead money after the cut year. It's still well worth it just to cut out the cancer.
The Marino/Fouts/Elway comparison is silly, primarily because 300 yard passing games weren't common during their era. In Romo's era, it was. Romo was merely a product of his era. Just an average dude doing average things.
You're trying to backdoor play the race card here?
I trust Dak a lot more to improve than I trust Dez to improve. Of course both remain to be seen.
There were NO accuracy issues with Dak in season one. Interestingly his accuracy dropped the same year Dez led the league in drops.
Stevie, from the article:
In other words, winning football. Romo's approach netted us exactly nothing other than entertainment. Do you want to be entertaining at the expense of being legitimately in the championship hunt? Jerry really doesn't care, likely he pines for the days where week in and...
It's 4 mil dead money for only the one year.
It's the same whether it's this year June 2 or next.
It's overall cap savings of 12.5 mil. The cap INCLUDES all players already. They don't magically add one when you cut somebody. They ALL count against the cap.
He's due to make 16.5 million this...
This is only partially correct.
Dez is an 8 mil dead money hit ONLY if we cut him BEFORE June 1st.
AFTER June 1st he is 4 mil dead money.
We save $12.5 mil in cap space if we cut him AFTER June 1st.
We NEED to cut him June 2nd, we do NOT need to extend this marriage by restructuring. We need...
Bullet Bob is why we have cover 2, double coverage, bump and run, zone, the whole schemer. He was so fast and so nimble that he changed the game forever, and Dandy Don wasn't afraid to just throw it as far as he could and let Bob run under it.
Blah blah blah we didn't learn shit. We already knew what a moronic idiot shitbag Garrett is. Writers still kissing his ass with fluff pieces like this though.
