It would seem that they have to win NOW. Eventually, this will catch up to them.

Because Jurrah got fat stacks of 💵 and by front loading signing bonus money up front in the contract, you can get a huge pay out but still only have a nominal cap hit in base salary.

Well, according to Overthecap, the Cowpukes are a $1 mil over the cap. No matter how much money Jerry has, he still going to have to restructure contracts and cut players to make things work this season.

They can't.
Dak will be 20% of their cap moving forward, give or take, and will have much less talent around him moving forward. If they keep talent on O, D will stink.
As a Redskins fan, I love this signing.
It means the Cowboys will not be contenders.
Dak is a good but not great QB. He is not worth this kind of money, especially not coming off injury. He has played behind a top-five OL, with a top-five RB, with a top-ten WR, and has still never won diddly, though Jones and horrible coaches like Garrett and Pork Chop 2.0 (McCarthy) not his fault.
QB contracts are just insane. I don't blame Dak for driving the hardest bargain and getting maximum value, but it is a cautionary tale as well. Makes so much more sense to draft a QB, in 1st round especially, and have him on 5 years of rookie deal. Also makes a ton of sense to draft and develop solid plan B, so if you end up with an above average QB looking to get paid like a bionic Johnny Unitas, you can let him walk.
In terms of on-field performance, Dak worth no more than $25M, economics of QB just insane.
To think of trading a boatload of picks and then paying preposterous contracts like this, versus drafting a rookie, is insanity given pricing of QBs.
I give Mahomes credit. He is certainly not dumb and could have demanded an inflation adjusted contract in a number of different ways, but he wants to win instead.
You put Dak on a team without a stud RB, stud OL, stud WRs, talent EVERYWHERE on O, he is an above average QB nothing more.
Can't help laughing about the choke artist Romo. Dak not that bad, Romo was the gift that keeps on giving, but I hope Jerry lives to be 7,000 and continues as Dallas GM. Long live Jerry!!!

Also, LOVE having McCarthy coaching Dallas. If he could only win one SB with Aaron freaking Rodgers at QB, he's not winning any with Dak Prescott at QB. LOL. Long live Jerry!!!

Preach! If anyone is keeping score, McCarthy had to lead the league in horrible coaching decisions last season. Please keep him around, Jerruh.
