Twitter: Jerry: On sticking with Cooper Rush

Well there you go. We have to hope Dak wins. If not we got a QB situation.

So either the Cowboys win games or we get controversy. Either way Jerry will enjoy the attention, so get your popcorn ready.

Dak better stay healthy and play smart and within the system like Rush is doing.

The goodwill is GONE. He has too much to prove and is being paid far too much to post mediocre results and fail to win games when it’s clear all that is needed at QB is a leader that can efficiently distribute the ball while leaning on the running game.

If Dak comes back and tries to put it all on his arm to “prove his value” he likely loses us some winnable games and further alienates and divides the media and fanbase.

Play smart Prescott. Make it about the team, not your need to appear elite. Just win games and everything else will fall into place

If they put together the same game plan and stop calling 60 passing plays, Dak would run that offense successfully as well.

I do like how quickly Rush gets the ball out of his hands though. I think Rush should be able to start for the next 6 games at the least.

If Dak comes back and plays bad like he’s been playing last 7-8 games and the team is not responding to him and say they lose a couple games they shouldn’t ....how much leash does he have??????

I'd guess about $40 million worth, more or less.

My wife don’t watch football you guys but she looks up at the screen and goes “I’ve never seen someone so happy to be on the sidelines than dak”.

fwiw

Boo birds will be out in full force if Dak comes back rusty. Maybe even some more trash throwers.

Especially if Cooper Rush leads us to another win this weekend.

 

[WillieBeamen]

This is obvious but Rush’s play should prove that the group of fans that said “we HAVE to pay Dak!” were wrong

fwiw

In what context did she mean that? Like he was relieved that he wasn't having to play or that he was being a good teammate?

Why would he not be happy, when they are winning.
He sees a running game starting to emerge. He sees the WR's start to make plays. The 2 young TE's look very good. OL is playing better, starting to gel.
So yeah, why would he not be happy.

Lol which one is it. He's rushing to get back or wants his job taken?

I get that part but at what point, if Dak plays badly and he starts losing or is the cause of losses would Jerry make the switch....or would he just ride Dak to the end
Only takes a small handful of discontented players that have lost confidence in a key player to start a fracture in a team

 

[CowboyStar88]

If we get the same Dak from his last 2 games played and the team loses the fans are gonna get restless.

Dak will not be on a leash while making 40 mil. Stop it.

 

[Floatyworm]

We have the dumbest owner in sports....

Constantly setting this team up to be 2nd guessed and failure....

 

[Shane612]

If it'll take a few games for Dak to adjust back to his usual playing mode, maybe Rush should finish out the season, and have Dak come back next season.

You know there's no way they're going to do that, right?

My wife watches minimal football and said Where is Dak? This guy looks pretty good, He is going to lose his job.
