We see it differently but in a civil manner. Win for humanity! :)
Man, I simply cannot fathom how. Dak's arm is a 6. Rush's is a 2. I mean, it's not even close.

Rush has the head for the game, a Tom Brady type head.

In every world Rush has proved the equal of Dak for sure. Rush has proven his worth which is something no one can say about the 160mil we paid to the always hurt choke artist. Dak had one good season and RG3 had one good season. Dak has shown us little over his 6 years in the league except for stats.
Stats don't get teams to the SB. Brady gets teams there without stats.

Brady can also put up 35, when necessary.

What happens to Rush when the opponent cracks 20 points? We don't know because he, unlike Dak, has never been asked to do it.

Dak is Dak at this point, but let's not kid ourselves about Cooper Rush. That words like "SB" and "Brady" are being mentioned in the same breath as him is a bit much.

Rush is not a strong arm but there is some ability to propel & control the ball with just his arm\wrist.

Dak using arm\wrist only. Very limited distance & zero accuracy. We've seen too many instances where he just needs to make a simple pass and the results were all over the place. Notice how he struggles to throw wide receiver screens. To get the ball that distance with some velocity he has to wind up. If he tries to just rise up & throw without setting his body, it's all over the place & defense is all over the WR by the time he can secure the catch. Assuming he can catch it at all. In all seriousness, I can't recall another NFL QB (starter or not) struggle so much with those screens.

Now when Dak can go thru textbook mechanics he can hum it pretty nicely & much more accurate.

I have no issues with getting better at any position. But your assumption that you just need to throw bunch of high draft picks to get a SB winning QB is ludicrous.
This is what I said last week when many people wanted to cash in the season for draft pick. So give up your dignity for a hope and prayer?

There is no SB in our future. We don't have a true franchise QB and not likely to have one for the next 3 or 4 years. 26 years inept and counting.

Rush is limited, which is why he's a five-year back up who has been cut twice. He's only had to score 20 points for his wins.

But, to his credit, he hasn't made dumb mistakes to throw the game away and came up with late drives for winning scores.

Dak is Dak, but anyone thinking Rush is the answer is kidding themselves. I don't think the answer is on the roster, sadly.


I don’t think Rush is the answer at all. I just know Dak is awful value for what he actually brings to the table.

He's not better, but he's just as good. Cost about $39,000,000.00 less per year.

Man I don’t know how many times this has to be said: A ton of Dak’s stats were against the putrid nfc East teams. We were 6-0 against those bad teams where Dak ran up stats. We then lost to almost every team we played with a winning record. And in terms of criticism, did you see how terrible he played against Tampa ? He had a qbr of 15.3 I think. You’re falling for the stats. Trust your eyes more.
I've been saying the same thing for a few years about Dakota "TOAD HUNTER" Prescot. The Toad Hunter has great stats against the toads in the league, but when he goes up against an AVERAGE team he refuses to show up! He's no longer considered a QB in the league, his job title has been changed to FROG GIGGER! Rush and the Toadie are light night and day, Rush will sit in the pocket an survey the entire field, Toadie locks onto the first star he sees and let's it go. Unfortunately, his passes are so off target it's a fricking joke and to make manners worse, he was throwing into double and triple coverages where the receiver had no chance to catch a pass. A Cooper got traded because he spoke out about the passing game on this team, unfortunately for Cowboy Nation the wrong player was traded.....................

We have a chance, we need to find another parsons in the next draft...a young QB likely can't save this franchise any time soon
