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

Do you just make up stuff in your head and convince yourself that it actually happened? Dak didn't commit his first NFL turnover until week 6 of his rookie season at Green Bay.. Then in season 2 he threw exactly one pick six at the end of the game during the debacle in Denver and then threw one other in the week 15 game against Seattle. So two the entire season equates to 3 in 4 games on your planet. I'm sure springtime is nice there..

If Dak had actually thrown 3 pick sixes in his first 4 games, then it would have been an easier decision for Romo to get his starting job back. But Dak being able to cut down on the INTs during that year, is one of the reasons why the Cowboys went on a win streak with him in the first place.

Rush was beyond 4 years and was released, because he was expected to resign anyways and going back to Dallas, he didn’t need to clear waivers. He had right of refusal for anybody. He didn’t try to sign anywhere else.

You don’t go into the season without any QB backup.



Thank you for the additional info which is good to note, but it does not change the fact that other teams have not exactly been knocking down his door to acquire his services.

The ceiling was way higher with Romo.
They only looked at the risk

Well we'll never know. Romo was allowed years to sit and learn. That's what I'm saying about Dak. He should've had the chance to sit and learn. He was a fourth round pick.

Tony still had a lot left in the tank. At least 1 year maybe two. Dak would've benefited from two years to learn. In the olden days that's how it was done.

It's water under the bridge now but that's the way I see it

also, Dak had the best offensive line in the NFL, best Running Back in the NFL and a full compliment of veteran wide receivers. Dak played conservatively and effectively until it came time to elevate to another level…….and to this day we haven’t seen what it takes to win in the post season from him.

Regardless of what you may want to happen and what you think should happen, There is no chance Rush keeps the job over Dak. It’s as if some of you don’t even follow the Cowboys. Hopefully if the Cowboys keep winning we will at least not rush Dak back and let him get healthy

When you have a job you like, why bother going anywhere else? Maybe he found a spot he’s comfortable in and wasn’t bothering to shop his services anywhere else. There is no team on earth that goes into a year without at least one backup QB.

And Linehan completely dumbed down the offense for him, which people forget. Also made it rely heavily on play action. By HALF the season, Linehan had Dak and the Cowboys ran more play action than the Cowboys did in Romo’s highest usage year from what I recall.

The offense was figured out and teams saw they could just sit on Cole Beasley’s routes and Dak did their 3 pick sixes in the first 4 games or so. Season 2 was awful display of quarterbacking and season 3 was as well, until Amari came and made the season somewhat respectable.

The fact that we are even debating whether a practise squad jouneyman QB is a better option to our 40m "superstar' QB says it all.

Whether or not one is marginally better than the other is missing the big picture. There should be a very obvious gulf in ability between the franchise QB and PS QB. If there isn''t, then the former is not a franchise QB.

Rush won't get a chancento go 6-2 my friend and I'm certain the 40mil QB here WILL get his job back lol. Dak will be back in a few weeks rather he's ready or not.
Yeah dak will be back for the rams game for sure. Jerry wont give rush a chance to show up his boy dak lol.

and also rush needs to win the next 2 games.

Dak is going to pick an easier game than at the SB champions to return.

Dak MIGHT have 3 pick sixes for his entire 83 game career.. maybe 4. so you continuing to post this drivel exposes you every time. And I'm going to call you out for it every time I see you doing it.

Sad to say but Dak gets his job back even if Cooper wins every game and throws 8 tds per game. That’s because Dak is who Jerry gave the money to and Jerry is never wrong.

sad all these ridiculous FAKE scenarios wont happen. SO the post is moot the responses are less than MOOT.. so absolutely hater troll talk.. it sad that fans turn on players like Dak and Zeke and our 11-5 QB from year ago 37Tds 10INT is why hes getting his job back..his comebacks in 18 from 3-5 to 10-6 win over Seattle in the first roiund , thats why..anythig else?

Hes our starter and wont lose his jb because thats a fact....hes far better than Cooper and even cooper would tell you that, OK??

so philly allegedly has better GMs, owners and coaches.. why was Fole the SB MVP and the reason they finished that season the way they did , LET go and Wentz reinserted as the starter does jerry run that team, Ill tell you why,

Note foles productivity anywhere but philly.. why was foles let go after being what 21-5 as starter by kelly why didn't the OWNERS and GMS step in and SAY NO to the coach? this happens all the time to frontline starter..they get their jobs back, period. Romo was oft injured and was on his last leg..thats different. if this was Daks last year on his new deal and those scenarios happen , i believe Jerry and Stephen would go cheaper and not resign Dak..thats not the scenario and none of the above are mired in actual reality.

Ive seen Fitzpatrick outplay the starters he replaced and they didn't keep him as the starter when the starters came back....

best example is Reid and how he replaced Smith with Mahomes before Mahomes proved anything, simply said goodbye even those Alex smith had his BEST year as pro really. Again it happens all over sports not just with Dak or just with the joneses,

enough said , move on trolls..

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' ...
If R - U - S- H, RUSH,RUSH,RUSH and the Cowboys go on a run it would be the perfect time for JJ to trade the great Dakota "Toad Hunter" Prescot AND his brother Tadpole.
