Does Dak get his job back if Rush goes 6-2 by the bye?

It's pretty insulting you have Rush losing two games unless he feels pity for the other team.

Time will tell, but I expect the 40Million dollar QB to be back in the saddle as soon as he's healthy. Now if Rush is playing lights out, they will just say he's not fully recovered.

If Rush is ballin’ and looks like a potential franchise QB, and we’re winning games? Keep him in there!

Huge “if”. Enormous “if”.
I'd like to see people try to cheer him on in the meantime!

All this contain your enthusiasm stuff...maddening. We have a glimmer of a bright spot...and we have to contain our enthusiasm....SHEESH!

Romo lost his job to a hot Prescott.

Does the same happen to Prescott ???

If we are 6-2 by the bye, then Prescott has the rest of the year to recover.

I'm just sayin' ...
No….different situation. Romo was at the end if his career, Dak was the future. Rush is not the future.

It was obvious by 2016 that Romo wasn't the guy to get it done, I was 100% behind the switch to Dak. Now, it's 100% obvious that Dak isn't the guy and it's time to move on to someone else.
Can always split the difference and go with a more conservative game plan while Dak is the QB.

I'm not even sure where to cast blame anymore....maybe Dak needs to be told to not check out of run plays. But they need to stop trying to win games on Dak Prescotts arm. It ain't gonna add up in the end.

Bus driver? I can't call that, but at worst a really damn good one with the right game plan. Not as if we have never seen that.

Clearly you don't understand how this FO works. More important to not look bad than anything else. Rush could go undefeated and win every game convincingly, they still gonna trot Dak out there the first possible second than admit the colossal mistake with him and that conract.
They could puff their chest out over Rush if he plays well and goes undefeated. They’d be able to thumb their nose at all the “experts” saying they had no idea what they were doing because they didn’t have a credible backup. Never underestimate how the Jones clowns can spin things in their minds.

Nah Jerry only has room on the pay roll for one over priced cheer leader. He is 80 years old and sits in the owners box.

How do you know?
Obviously, no one knows the future, but Rush has years and multiple teams if opportunities to show he can be an answer more than a intra-season fill-in. Rush may have or develop the mental side, but the physical is limited.

I sat at Texas Stadium for Ryan Leaf’s first game for the Cowboys. The team was at about the opponent’s 40 yard line and he zipped a ball 30 yards downfield in a rope. It was obvious the arm strength difference vs. the slop they had run out prior to that. Rush doesn’t have that which limits the throws that can be made. The out throws are custom made to be a pick-6. Should’ve been at least 1 yesterday.

Prescott by far is the better quarterback. But it’s a very good question I don’t know what the franchise will do.

Very much a possibility Prescott is definitely the better quarterback. But I’m not sure what the franchise will do

At least he’s not roaming the sidelines like he used to. Like the Eggo commercial, take the wins where they are.

We won because of our D. Rush held his own but it’s not like he dominated for 60 mins.

He is a serviceable backup— but had Dak been healthy, he would have played better than he did the week before simply bc the Cinci D is not nearly as complete as Tampa’s
