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

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

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.

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

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.

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

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

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?
