Dak will return and have a chance to improve upon his horrific performance against Tampa. But make no mistake, if he plays poorly or loses the LA and Philly games, the boo birds aren't going away and neither are Coopers supporters.

There is no QB controversy. Prescott will be the starter even if he starts and Dallas loses to both LAR and Philadelphia.

It makes for a nice debate among the fans, but that's not the reality of the situation.

Stafford could definitely get flustered if we are constantly pressuring him.
I wouldn't be shocked if we beat them.

If we can be in his face a lot, he will make mistakes.

He relies so much on Kupp it is insane.

Let us see if SF's defense can do anything.
I definitely think ours is better.
Yet Kupp still catches a ridiculous amount of passes for a ridiculous amount of yards and TDs. McVay vs. Quinn will be an interesting matchup.

Dallas was 0-1 and had lost their starting QB. Dallas was declared dead.

But Rush came in and saved the Dallas season. He has overachieved and is the first quarter of the season MVP. Dallas is now 3-1, and 2-0 in the division. Thank you Cooper Rush.

But now Dallas must think long term. IF Prescott is ready for this weeks game against LAR he MUST play. Even if Dallas looks bad on offense and loses against LAR, Prescott needs to play to knock off the rust and get reps with the offense in a real game, not practice.

The game that matters is the week after, the Philadelphia game. The divisional game.

Rush has put Dallas in a great position. But Dallas needs to build on that. The next two weeks will have a large say to what kind of team Dallas actually has.

Let's go Boys!!!

Substitute the word "Prescott" with "Romo" and I could promise I have saw this post in 2016 (baring the opponent team names)

So, in your view, Prescott can perform as poorly as he did in Tampa, lose games, and there will be no consequence? I disagree.

They’ll be hoping he fails.

The difference was Romo was out for like 10 weeks.

Prescott will only be out 4 weeks max.

If Romo had only been out 4 weeks, he would have been the starter when healthy.

Please look at the money.

Dallas has invested in Prescott and that will trump all.

Not really. Maybe they were interceptions because of the penalties? Just a hunch.

And it’s more like “oh look, our quarterback actually throws deeper than 15 yards & not just screens”

Or “ oh look, our quarterback didn’t actually throw it behind or above the receiver.”

My favorite one:

“Oh look, our quarterback can actually read a defense”


BS show me one tight window throw or even better show me an out...just one

Prescott unseated Romo as the starter. Guess who made more money?

I responded to another poster that it was the length of time that Romo was out and the teams record that caused management to make that decision.

If Romo was out 4 weeks instead of 10 weeks Romo would have been the starter when healthy.
