Could Dez, in his second year? Nuff said. Love all the hand wringing though, at this extreme outside possibility we might lose Desmond.

Yep and teams are just beating down his door to sign him away from us. Not.

I guess you missed Statman's post showing we had 1000 yard receivers before Dez and during Dez.... We can live without Dez. We will still throw the ball. People will still catch it. We've always spread the ball around, we will continue to do so. I am FAR more worried about life without Romo...

So what? Without Dez they'll have to adjust and figure out why we're torching them with other guys. When I was calling for this, you should have seen the wails and howls. I still think it's a good idea if we can get the right deal for him.

So, you believe Tony just won't have anyone to throw to, there won't be a 1,000 yard receiver, although as Statman showed earlier, there always has been. The offense just collapses without Dez, right? C'mon now. Really makes me want to see him hold out or get signed by another team. But, no...

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.
