Dak Prescott

[ROMOTOOWENS]

I still have high hopes for Dak improving this year and for Kitna helping him, but it has been dropping recently. It's crazy how many of the clips I have seen show Dak with poor footwork. While poor footwork alone isn't always a bad thing, with Dak, just by watching his technique you can see when the ball is going to fly on him or just come out poorly. It's very disappointing to see that there seems to be almost no improvement in this area based on all we read about it a couple of months ago except for when he is throwing against air or out of a totally clean pocket. Again, in and of itself this isn't necessarily a problem, but because it was already an ongoing issue with Dak I felt like if he could improve his footwork he would improve his accuracy and ball speed and in particular down the field.

I was wondering if you saw any of that. There were a few clips of him the other day throwing jump passes. I think Lewis picked him once.

Well... Goff signed.

Lots of players have been extended. Going to be some painful cap casualties to get Dak locked up.

Nope. They have the cap managed.

some prefer to see the glass half empty

I’m about 1 yr at a time. The window is there this year. Worry about next year when it gets here. It’s been a long time since we have been this good. In order to be a contender, we need Zeke.

 

[Schmoopy1000]

Well... Goff signed.

Goff stole the contract I was figuring for Dak.

think it will be close to 135 mil. on 4 years
like someone else pointed out. somewhere around 110 mil. in guarantees
60 mil signing bonus

granted I dont know how much Goff got as a signing bonus.

 

[Sir Robin Of Camelot]

Sure hope he gets a contract before Mahomes.

I think he gets his deal early this season.

Dak Deal Still A Top Priority For Cowboys Brass

[ROMOTOOWENS]

Wow. I just read that. Impressive. Not a surprise though.

 

[Manster7588]

What? No Cole bitterness?

 

[UK Cowboy]

Dak at $34 headed for $35. Not getting cheaper Jerry...

 

[Schmoopy1000]

Dak is full of confidence. On & off the field.
While most players like signing long term deals for the bigger immediate payday. Dak is willing to bet on himself over instant security.
Right now he is willing to play out his contract knowing he will get more by next year. Well the Cowboys know this too. So they are trying to get him signed. Honestly I dont know if money is the sticking point. Cowboys want to sign Dak for 6 years & he only wants to sign for 4. Reason being. He is betting on himself. That allows him to re do another contract sooner. making more money. While this sucks for us fans. I got to admire his confidence in himself. He isnt holding out. he isnt using social media. He isnt worried about playing worse in the next few years. He shows up to work & kicks ass I might add while working for peanuts (on a NFL scale)

I have to say. He is negotiating just like he is on the football field. Which means he is gonna win.
Jerry you better pay this man before he does end up a 40 mil. dollar man. he isnt afraid to bet on himself.

Now I would rather him be signed for 6 years, but I have a feeling he gets signed for 4 years. So quit wasting time & get it done.

Wow. I just read that. Impressive. Not a surprise though.

My dad saw an interview with Witten at Witten's home for something or other and he pretty much said the same thing. Dak is a commanding presence in the huddle

 

[Schmoopy1000]

with all of our retread OC's we have always struggled getting TDs in the redzone.
Dak is 9 for 9 in the redzone
100%

I am enjoying the start of this season. Once our D gets it together we might be dangerous.

Just waiting to test this new offense out on a proper defense to truly gauge where we are.

There are some good ones on the schedule. GB has really been impressive so far. They gave up some yards yesterday but their DBs are really good. Minn and the Bears will also be a test. NE has been really good as well. Eagles aren’t bad lol

A lot of what we are reading on Dak now is based on two weeks which obviously can be misleading. This is based on his first 3 years and ignores the first two weeks
