We're also beating Washington

best case scenario for rush. pad his resume, avoid the true tests, dak potentially gets eaten alive, rush returns for the cakewalk. wild times

If Dak was smart he'd draw this out until after the Philly game.

But then what if Rush just keeps doing his thing?

Dak's in a bad spot here regardless.

yeah it's set up perfectly for the media circus, including him potentially coming back this week. personally i'd like to see rush against the rams and dak against the eagles. should tell us plenty

If Rush goes 3-0 this season and doesn't play again thus not losing he probably has earned a new contract at least

Carson Wentz literally might not survive our pass rush this week.

Please. Wentz laughs are your feeble attempts.

 

[KJJ]

Carson Wentz literally might not survive our pass rush this week.

I remember the last time someone said that about a Washington QB. It was when we faced Colt McCoy in Dallas in 2014. The Cowboys were coming off 6 straight wins and Washington was 2-5 and down to their 3rd QB. There was an over and under thread on the board with fans predicting how many sacks we would get on McCoy. Lol

 

[Risen Star]

Whoever plays against the Rams and Eagles will be the QB fans don't want on the field anymore.

Look here, it's GoRicos job to create these threads. Lol

Washington is a bad team. I won't deny that but they are still a pro NFL team. Cooper Rush is going to have a 4-0 start to his NFL career and after that it gets harder and harder to remove the hot hand. Rush runs this offense better than Dak. Dak might throw the better football but Rush can read a defense better and is more calm than Dak. If we win this game I might buy my son a Rush jersey. Yeehah go Cowboys!!

Washington has more talent then the Giants. They have a good defensive line, linebackers and receivers. This game could be tough especially with that stinker against the Eagles.

Even more impressive then if Rush comes out and wins this one

Wentz would be well advised to wrap himself with Charmin TP before coming out of the tunnel.

Cooper Rush leading the team to 3-0 with Dak coming back for the Rams and Eagles is just too good lol

Plus - both DAL v. LAR and DAL v. PHL are road games for the Cowboys.
And - those games will be shown nationally... the former is the main doubleheader game on FOX, and the latter is Sunday night on NBC.

3-0 is always good, and I hope they keep winning when Dak returns. But if Dak comes back and loses to the Rams not only will he feel pressure, ol' Jerry won't like the questions.

So either the Cowboys get on a roll or we get drama. Jones boys history suggests drama is more likely, but we'll see.

Whether you love Dak or Coop or both (me!), if Coop beats WSH I think you HAVE to at least let Cooper start against the Rams or even play until he loses for the following reasons:

1) Avoid the controversy: If Coop starts 3-0, and then A rusty Dak loses to LA and legit gets beat by a really good Eagles team, that will cause major controversy, maybe even in the FO and locker room. Bringing Dak in after Cooper loses (he will eventually) will be way easier

2) Bench test your backup: I would GLADLY give up one loss this season to know that I have my long term backup qb. He will get experience against good teams, and the FO can confidently sign him long term if he plays well

3) Let the team find its rhythm: The team has rallied since losing Dak, so now they might believe it isn’t all on him. In turn, Dak might not check out of so many run plays because he believes in his team. Nothing wrong with a bus driver

4) Let Dak shake rust: I’m sure he’s dying to play, but that thumb strength matters a ton in gripping the ball and for accuracy. Take a week or two to let it fly in practice and get confidence

Just my 2 cents

3-0 is always good, and I hope they keep winning when Dak returns. But if Dak comes back and loses to the Rams not only will he feel pressure, ol' Jerry won't like the questions.

The Rams would start the chatter, but then let our divisional rival in Philly embarrass us and watch what happens.

That would mean we'd be 0-3 with Dak and 3-0 with Cooper (if we beat Wash.)

Nope, nope and nope.. all untrue and locking in win before it happens is in trouble, Im glad this isnt a player or coach spouting nonsense.

dont count your chickens before they hatch...

Fans are allowed to count chickens and spout nonsense. But yeah, I don't want the team to be thinking this way. It's on the coaches and captains to keep them focused.

 

[blueblood70]

Will be interesting if we win this week. Then we lose against Rams and Eagles with Dak. We will have a good Ole fashion QB controversy.

really UMM NO..you do realize ,

Level of competition and TEAM play is how you judge games , game 1 is more like what we will get from the rams and eagles and the team best play better then they did against the BUCS.

Just please stop assuming one score wins against the Bengal's, comos, or if we beat WSH is the same. LMAO..sure its the same..

real players, FO, and coaches are not fans they know whose to blame.. game 1 was NOT just DAK.. only QB controversy would be from the fan base not the locker room.

Daks job is not in jeopardy. there's no doubt!!

how about this,

• defense better not give up 4 straight scores to the offense to start a game and stop the run- FAIL
• OL better not have 11 penalties and create a mess of behind the chain play calls and have big plays called back, FAIL
• Offense better be able to run the ball and not be one dimensional, they did NOT! FAIL
• Defense best not be offsides 3 times in the 2nd half extending drives and eating clock FAIL
• the ref that needs to set ball needs to not jog back and have fat-tired OL beat them to set the ball- FAIL
• coaches better have great gameplan and payers execute it- FAIL
• Fans FEEL DAK should be superhuman and overcome all the above issues -FAIL

Got that bud.. i saw all those alleged failures buy our qb last year and other then the denver game, IT WAS NOT DAK. Many looked just like the 9er game, same issues.. Guess what TB game 1 much of the same.. what are you looking at, i see whats going on.

Dak could use soem support in game how about 2016 that GB playoff game, defense choked. Our offense battled back 3 times to tie or take the lead and defense gave it right back
2018 plays rams game defense gave up 250yards rushing, owned the clock ,and our OC couldn't draw up plays to move the ball,.
seems awfully familiar

Romo experienced similar situations and got the same nonsense from fans.

and as a fan im allowed to call them out. Counterpoint,, don't look ahead.

BTW this scenario is close to what happened after coopers MN win last year, that Denver game was horrible the coaches weren't prepared, the defense also didn't fully show up, Dak played poorly but in no way shape or form did the rest of the team play well.it was blowout for 3 qtrs from all 3 phases and coaching.. the rams and eagles are a set up for fans ,only to say if dak loses those games there a controversy's, UMM the level of play is 100% different. like the bucs game , game 1 nothing worked.
