If you never want to win a Super Bowl and choke in the playoffs year after year, then yes, pay him.
why would pay dak 60 mil a year ? Youve seen him over and over again not get past the second round at 40 / 50 a year. So upping his pay isnt going help anybody
Literally facts, I think the best Dallas team was the rookie zeke and dak.
He & Mccarthy can go. But sadly Jerry & his son ain't going anywhere
@@Tone22845 the biggest problem
Unless Lance has developed enough to take over who else they gone get? He leave yall gone cry we ain't got a qb. Same way yall bash Romo then soon as he was out yall was crying for him back.
Defense gives up 30+ points with the exception of 1 game. Dak still has a decade to play.
If you want to have a QB with a decent season, but choke routinely in the playoffs.....sure.
Casual

First of all, the Dallas Cowboys have been choking in the playoffs since the 90s.This aint got nothing to do with Prescott. go do your research young buck

I'm with Herm Edwards on this one.
See this is why we hate some of these analysts we talking about wins and losses and this guy is talking about qbr
Goof baII said âabsolutelyâ
Factsđ itâs a terrible debate strategy
Very good analogy.
Keep that same energy with Herbert
@@TheBrotherHoodSports whatâs that suppose to mean?
Do these âanalystsâ not realize that there is less money for talent around you when these QB prices keep going up ridiculously? You pay him, you lose the team around him.
Yes they realize that. Theyâve talked before about how $60 million is 20% of a teams entire salary cap. You gonna give a fifth of your whole budget to one guy? Thatâs nuts. But this is Jerry Jones. He likes making money more than he likes winning titles
What U stated don't mean nothing Bc everyone knows that Jerry never spends in free agency Draft and develop, that's been the 29 year problem
@@JFKMLK Most of the top teams got there because of the draft
@royindalox4217 what I'm trying to say is Jerry and Stephen don't aquire players through free agency, like Derrick Henry wanted to come here and they didn't even call the man , other teams add key additions to there team , Jerry believes in draft and development, what has hurt Dallas is the lack of additions by the trade deadline in October to help them get over the top , they never do anything, really year round
@royindalox4217 if they don't pay Dak they still not gonna spend no money, just the way they do Business, when Dak was on his rookie deal, they added nothing or no one
why pay dak 60 M a year to not reach the NFC championship game, when you can find many other QBs who you can pay much less to do the same thing
Sure?
Yeah, who might that be?
Iâm with you. Salary cap
Nope the Dallas tampon boys will be worse Dak is a great quarterback if you don't pay some other team will đ

When was they down 20??? They went 12-5 and still canât stop the run. Cowboys are too finesse thatâs why they canât win. Physical teams always beat them
Most of Dak wins are against week teams

If i was 2-5 in the playoffs, that was my job, that isn't good enough for 60 million. The bar needs to be higher. Playoffs and superbowls.
You can have all the good stats you want, but winning playoff games and a superbowl is the priority. He definitely shouldn't get paid more than Burrows.
Every playoff loss was dak fault đđđđđ like he canât be serious he threw multiple picks in every playoff game he lost
Peyton threw multiple picks in his early post season games including 4 in one game and was sacked 5 times in the 2004 AFC title game with A loaded team edrrian James Reggie Wayne Marvin Harrison sr, Dallas Clark, freenly, Bob sanders on defense

A proven player who can't win in the Post. For Cowboys Coach Herm is right. It's Super Bowl or bust, no matter how unrealistic that may be. And when it comes to SBs? Dak is a bust. Regular season wins don't matter in Dallas.
Didnât he just holdout like 2 years ago for the same thing? Asking for a new deal I can understand that but a hold out is CRAZY!
His contact expired 2 years ago so he negotiated a new one and now that contract is expiring.
This is the last year of his deal.. and the way dax agent structured it is so that the biggest cap hit is this year his last year and I'm assuming he thought that would force the cowboys to have to renegotiate which makes total sense.. if you deserve it..Dak doesn't.. And to be honest neither does Micah right now.. he hasn't been good in the playoffs either and he actually still has a year or two left on his rookie deal and rookies aren't supposed to demand money early.. That's why the safety was kind of saying that whatever his name was
@@SwiftTheGreatOk, thank you for explaining that.
@@seanc6754Got it. Thatâs crazy
@@seanc6754Micah deserves it, they need other guys around him so teams just canât focus on him. Look at what SF does for Bosa, or what the Steelers do with Watt
jerry does not care about SBs. he IS the biggest problem đđ
I hope he extends Dak lol
I mean heâs good at making a lot of money off a Mid team for 30 years
i think he does, winning gets him more money. and the cowboys are the most valuable team in sports. but dak isnt the answer, hes been there 8-9 years and collapse during the wildcard round.... i wouldnt wanna pay 60 mil for that, who would?
5:44 đđđ dak not his fault but he sure didn't help the team or lift team up, rally team
The organization has surrounded Dak with Pro Bowl quality players over 5 years now! How much more Dak friendly teammates does he need! Not worth $60 million let him play out his contract
Herm is speaking that gospel! Win a SB, life is set. Choke in the playoffs, pack yo bags. Romo was great but JJ held on way too long.
All the int is not Dak fault? Smh
As a Rush fan, I dare Dak to hold out. đđ
It doesn't matter what you do in the regular season it's how you perform in the playoffs. He's not worth the money
Herm spitting the truth!
The definition of insanity is doing the same thing and yet expecting different results. Jerry is telling Dak: you have to prove it now not just in the regular season but in the playoffs
Dak highest paid why? He is the 8th/10th best only. This has to stop.
Another Trevor?? đ€Żđ€Żđ€Ż which is not even top 15
These people are so funny. Jerry Jones does not want Dak anymore. JJ is the owner and he is going to do whatever he thinks is best for him.
No! Let Dak Go
The big guy analyst sounds like Paul Heyman
Dak has proven he canât he canât win a championship game let him go .
The team has proven that over 30 years, breaking news Daks been there only 8 and 6 if U count when he was hurt, Daks got 8 or 9 more years easy like Matthew Stafford and 15 if he wants to play has long has Tommy did

I agree. Not as long as heâs a Cowboy.
The Cowboys as a franchise will probably never win a championship again itâs been near 30 years. Dak hasnât been there for 30 years.
You know what youâre so helpful we needed that
They got the C team in today
đđđđđđđđđđđđ
They should pay him a lot of money to not win anything
Dak is buns. Let him walk
It will be in the best interest of the boys if dak just leaves
Welp, itâs that time of the year again. No first take until preseason football starts up đ
Had to see who was talking I thought Paul Heyman was talking football đ
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE make Dak the highest paid QB in the league- EVERY team in the league
Daks QBR in the playoffs is a joke. We all know he was padding his stats while being blown out with the packers
Hold on! the same folks saying he should get paid are the same ones who were ripping him at the end of the season and during the playoffs. Dallas needs to save their money and see what they have in Trey Lance or just get a young QB. You're not going to win either way. So, are they paying for mediocrity. Other than that, they're showing their insanity. I mean, what do the stats equate to?
Acho needs to be drug tested for real.
DAK isnât that good AT ALL! heâs a regular season type QB but when it comes to the playoffs he isnât the guy to lead you to postseason wins! If his defense isnât playing out of their minds then youâre not going to win with him under center!
Youâre a casual. Shut up
Thank You Herm!!
Every time you bring up how other QBs have done nothing in the playoffs, people try to change the subject. It's all about what Dak hasn't done only.đ
I think it is short sighted to say he will never win a championship sometimes it takes a while ask Breeze, Elway and Peyton Manning. Championships are won by teams and not one of eleven on offense. Not to mention the defense must do their part. Dak didn't give up 48 points in their last playoff appearance.
Lakers built a brand by winning
Yankees built a brand by winning
Cowboys đ snake oil salesman tactics Jerrrrrahhh Jones
no one ever mentions that Dak has played bad teams. the NFC EAST have been bad for years now. Lets see if he can play well against good teams
How many QBâs won a SB since Dak entered the league not named Pat mahomes
Sam sounds crazy he doesn't deserve to be the highest paid QB, Dak is whack
Cue the Stephen A Smith song...
Accident waiting to happen đ đ đ đ
A mediocre team - in Big D.....
He's been holding out his entire career. Mid level QB at best. Only gets the eyes because it's Big D. Jerry world has been promising a title every year since the last one. Some 30 years ago.
Trey Lance is going to be the starting quarterback next year plus Jerry Jones is not resigning Dak. Facts don't care about your feelings
Sam thinking Herm is going to agree with him and then the exact opposite happens. đđđ
Why nobody is asking the big question? Where else is Dak going to go and win??? What teams need a QB? NYG? Indy? How many teams need a QB?
Dak makes 3/4 of nfl teams into instant superbowl contenders.
@@toadfrench7801đđ Super Bowl contenders?? What about the team he is on now ?? Dak had a top 5 team for 3 years now and still canât get past the 2nd round you put another Joe or josh or Lamar on that team they are going to the championship game at the minimum
@@dariuspaker7960thatâs hilarious lol. Burrow is always injured. Allen is a turnover machine and LamaRB well
@@dariuspaker7960 Dak just had a better season than Mahomes. If he had a better team around him then he would have won the superbowl.
Not important.. Dak's contract ends at season end... and all you gotta do is bid low.. Like vet minumum and he'll move on to some scrubby team like Atlanta was for Kirk Cousins
Ducks. You should hold out from playing until you get double of what you're asking for. You are a super bowl champion and you still have some life in you. Don't give up Duc
The Cowboys need to hire a real GM and the Jones needs to stay out of running the team!
Gotta ask, what team will need & want Dak next season? Pretty every team has a QB already. So I only see the Cowboys bidding against themselves.
You just bid him so low he makes more money going to hold a clipboard at another team.
there's so many QBs i'll put over dak right now burrow, mahomes, jackson, murray, allen, even CJ Stroud
Dak Should Hold Out Permanently!!!!! Please Donât return Dak!!!!!!!!!!!!
Didnt dak say verbatim "im not looking to be the highest paid".. that "I don't do this for the money".. i know im not trippin that he said that.. so if that's the case I don't understand why he doesn't have a contract.. now if he lied and he is looking to be the highest paid ever then I completely understand why he doesn't have a contract.. because I wouldn't give him one either
Dak absolutely would play for free but his agent, who is the best in all of sports, wont let that happen.
I still cant take any of Achoâs âexpertâ analysis seriously after he didnât rank Mahomes in his top 5 QBs 2 years ago đđ
Let this dude walk. Itâs time for the boys to reset anyways
1st off, no be doesn't deserve it based on his performance. 1st-round exits in the playoffs are enough of a reason.
Nope
They need to come to a lower number. Especially if they donât win this year blow it up. Sign Micah and sign CD
But what if you allow Dak to play and he stinks it up again? Isn't it about winning everything? That means winning in the playoff. There are quite a few really good QB's coming out next year.
Dak wins a Superbowl for the Dallas Cowboys before he retires seems like mission impossible. I'd bet on Joe to win the presidency against Trump before I place money on Dak.
The first guy with the red vest is so fake đđđ
Guess ESPN got the subs in today
đđđ
They do have Trey lance
There's a reason the 49ers traded him.
what is acho talking about Dak did not have a MVP Caliber season....but he is deserving of a Raise
Dak doesn't deserve to be the highest paid player in the league, but when you witness an average quarterback like Trevor Lawrence become the highest paid, you're like WTH?
Absolutely đ ...dude PLEASE step from the pipe before you really do some damage. DAK sucks.....let him walk. Give trey a shot or draft a qb.....GO COWBOYS.
Dallas really should pay him as much as humanly possible
Right, watching them crumble every year is just a feel good story I donât want to miss :) dak is mid and always will be
Iâm gonna say this, over the last 20 years every cowboy player not named Dak Prescott that got a big check under performed. Read that again.
Ratings mean nothing if you fail to win the game. MVP means nothing if you don't win in the playoffs/superbowls.
CrazyâŠ
Lowkey I think giving the relationship he has with coach prime, I think he wants to wait for sheduer to come out next year. Assuming that he plays well and doesnât get injured.
What did the Acho brothers do to get platforms on tv
It's funny, Old players all saying PAY DAK, media people saying don't pay him.
And smart people saying, wait until the end of the season, if you have to pay him 5M more / year, so be it, but at least we will know what we have
They need to make a max contract for qbs like they finally did for rookies. its hard to pick a set number when the cap continues to climb but it should be a max % at least. Maybe max of 20%-22%.
"Dak was almost MVP" no he wasn't lamar won it in a landslide đ stopped listening after that
Just looking at last season I feel like Dakâs playoff QBR was saved by garbage time against Green Bay. He was a huge part of why they lost
Great QBs elevate their play under pressure! Good QB:s canât elevated! They canât take the pressure!! Look at the greats to see the winning formula. Dak and Romo couldnât and wonât and couldnât elevate under pressure to perform! Brady could! Burrow can!
We should just start over acho. 8yrs is enough sample to see he's not it.the tean is young enough to kindaxstsrtcover with lance.JUST START OVER
If I was Jerry Jones I would let Dak hold out and laugh at the idea he's delusional enough to think he's worth $60 million a year. Even if the Cowboys record is bad at least the Cowboys will have a high draft pick to draft a new franchise QB or at least one that will be better than Dak.
If I'm Dallas I gotta let him walk I'm sorry but he's not worth that much
Itâs easy to get say get rid of dak but everyone missing the point. They win to much to get a high quality quarterback in the first round. If they were gonna move from Dak the time to draft one was this past draft after the first round. Thereâs no qb that Iâm tracking better than him in the market. Lastly, Dak isnât the biggest problem they have right now. They still need running backs, help at the receiver, linebacker o-line, and defensive ends.
Get your money, Dak!
The only thing about it is that I don't think he'll ever win a Superbowl in Dallas. If he goes to the right team in the AFC, ironically, he'll be so challenged that I believe he'll be a dawg over there. đđŸđđŸđđŸ
Lets gooooo
People forget that the Dallas defense was the actual let down. Not just last year but in 2019 against the Rams. I still feel like that was the best position the cowboys had and the allowed 270 rushing yards. The cowboys are a poorly ran team and they have never actually built in offense for Dak. In fact imagine what the cowboys could have done with CeeDee and Amari. Cowboys will never win with Jerry Jones.
Tf is butterbean doing in here
đđđđđđđđđđđđ
đđđđđđ
When did butter bean get on espn as an analyst
đđđđđđ
Let him test the open market. Nobody but the Cowboys are going to pay him that much.
They could grab a free agent qb and still lose in the first round of the playoffs
Carlin is one of the few good analysts on ESPN
Maybe the players union should force the NFL to reassess their tampering policy. If another team wanted come in right now and make Dak an offer, they should be allowed to do so. A player has only so many good years in them, and probably two large contracts within them. The existing tampering clause hampers a player to get paid, and feel the love from a team. What the Cowboys are doing is almost like pressuring Dak to deliver for the owner's amusement.
The college level has integrated the NIL policy within their competition, and players are allowed to seek 'employment' elsewhere if it's more lucrative for them. So why can the college level do this, and not the pro in the NFL?!?!
It's easy to say dak is better or as good in the postseason as players who have a way worse roster and/or coaching staff every year lmao
