To entertain this, this should be Zeke last year in Dallas anyway. But the QB is the leader of the team who commands the most attention and the most investment for an organization. If your most prized investment isn’t getting the job done when it matters, it’s time question your investment. So he has this year and next to get the job done and if he comes up short with the money he is paid, it’s time to invest in someone new.
Why would this be Zeke last year? He is a number 4 overall pick. He is not even 28 years old. He is the highest paid running back ever. He is running behind 3 HOF.
You think you need to be in the business of cutting or trading a top 4 pick who should be in his physical prime? Cause when Derrick Henry was Zeke age he was running for almost a 1000 yards in 8 games. And he ISNT a top 4 pick? He aint even a 1st round pick?
You talking about "most prized investment"...uh...nobody in the history of football has invested more money into the running back position than the Dallas Cowboys, by virtue of Zeke contract. But you trying to tell me that this should be "Zeke last year in Dallas", after the cowboys have invested the most money ever in the position that he plays? This sound logical to you? Would you pay the most money anyone has ever paid for something and then in three years be like "meh, we should just let it go or trade it for something else."
You trying to build an argument around "prized investment" while also telling me that the Dallas Cowboys need to get rid of a 27 year old football player that they drafted number 4 overall and made him the highest paid at his position ever. Huh? And somehow none of this matters because the 4th round quarterback is supposed to be doing what...making up for the lack of production from the number 4 overall running back with the highest price tag in football?
It's like you telling me the Cowboys need to be living and dying with what Dak does or doesn't do but the Jaguars just swapped out there coach and won their division? The 49ers are down to a 3rd string QB but won their division? The Giants swapped out there coach and made the playoffs? The seahawks traded their franchise player and went with GENO fukkING SMITH and they in the playoffs? The Dolphins QB CTE got CTE and they in the playoffs? Lamar knee still look like a boomerang but the Ravens in the playoffs? How these other teams downgrade at the QB position or they just swap out the head coach and they in the same playoff tournament we are but for us its not about our defense, its not about our head coach, its not about our number 4 overall pick running back, its not about our record breaking corner its not about our inducted into the HOF before his second season is over pass rusher, its all about our QB? Doesn't make sense.
