2020 NFL Week 7: Dallas Cowboys at Washington Football Team

[Maveric]

That’s what he should have said. That I agree with and understand. Paying Dak $40M per with this team is insane when you have a shot at the best QB in the draft. I guess the Cowboys should have also made Danny White the highest paid QB in NFL history instead of drafting Troy Aikman too huh?

You're missing the most obvious difference. Jimmy was putting that team together. Saying that drafting Lawrence would turn out the same is saying Jerry can put a team together like Jimmy can, which we damn well know isn't happening.

. Dude I'm done. This is the worse defense in the league, but you can guarantee that isn't the issue. Ok. Wow. This is Zone stupidity.

Who the duck said defense isn’t the issue? Can you fucking read?

Is there a chance Lawrence doesn’t pan out? Sure there is. There is with Dak too, especially when you still have to rebuild the team either way. The only difference is you’re not locked into $40M a season with Trevor Lawrence.

If you haven’t given up on the season already...

When you see this, you KNOW your season is completely over

 

[Scot]

Cooper is the only WR with a catch today

If you build a team, you trade down and get more picks.

Not when you have a QB that highly rated staring you in the face at the top of the 1st round. Especially when you haven’t been able to come to terms with your current QB, not to mention is coming of a very severe injury.

I've never seen DE's that get fooled game, after game, after game, after game by the bootleg and can't contain the edge. I mean, I'm sitting on my couch and see it coming.

I agree

I would much rather have Lawrence and the uncertainty that comes with a #1 draft pick and with his potential to be a great QB in the NFL, coupled with the cap space we will save for the next 5 years on his rookie deal which would give us the space to make moves, than I would Dak with his $40 mil per year cap crippling salary and his injury uncertainty

 

[Dustdevil]

Or....

You could make the case you could get a large haul for a once in a generation talent (he's no DiNuchi, but still...) and build from there. I could really see both arguments. Either way, you have to execute on the back end which right now, is no guarantee.

Leaf was highly rated as well. A lot of QBs are highly rated and turn bust. How highly rated was Brady?

And then in another 4 years, you'll be clamoring for another QB. You contradict yourself. You mention uncertainty with the rookie QB, but certainty with Dak's injury? Really? It was a freak injury.

You're still missing the point. It's not about Lawrence, or about Dak. It's about that you're talking about a total rebuild with Jerry at the helm. If he was capable of building a team from scratch it would have already happened. If he was going to committ to drafting qualtiy defensive players he already would have. Those are the things that need to happen. If you go from Lawrence to Dak and keep all you're going to get is the exact same thing except with the pitfalls of a rookie qb's learning curve. The only thing that would accomplish is feeding Jerry's urge for headlines and tv time.

No

I actually didn’t contradict myself

I specifically mentioned both the uncertainty of a #1 pick AND Dak’s injury

Go back and read my comment again

Gostkowski just blew it for the Titans to have a chance at overtime.

 

[Scot]

The Raidaz are looking pretty damn good this season

 

[Number1]

I'm convinced Romo and Prescott at the LOS are the only offensive geniuses this team have had this century

 

[Scot]

Who would have thought that losing Byron Jones and Jeff Heath would have taken our 6th (yes, they were ranked 6th overall, I just looked it up) ranked secondary in 2019 to last place in 2020.

 

[MrB]

Considering they didn’t get into the end zone I would agree.
