I saw that and he basically said that people weren’t applying the same standards to how each QB was evaluated.

Which is factually true. It’s much different. But whatever. All I care about is winning games.
Pretty harsh way to crusade against other fans. I told him I get it.....but it's the....optics? of it.

There's not much to say that will suddenly change people's minds. And it LOOKS like downplaying what Cooper has been able to accomplish.

YEs...let's just keep playing well...and win. We shouldn't be bickering about it sheesh!

His first sentence is “Rush is playing well”.

The head line is "Rush would suck". The OP is clearly taking credit away from Cooper Rush and giving it to the defense. Any more reading comprehension I have to do for you?

You left out the "to some of you" part. :facepalm: Find whatever school gave you a diploma and get your money back.

I for one hope like HELL he keeps playing good and winning. It’s just funny that those that have been actively rooting against the most important player on “their team” for like 5 years are now very sensitive to the very mild and isolated criticism of Rush.

The title was to get chicks like you upset.

His first line was “Rush has played well”
Just calm down honey and take a deep breath.

I totally agree with you about the bickering. And I've posted here before about the Cowboy fans are the worst in the league. But....if you think this is bickering, wait til Dak comes back.

There is some truth in what you are saying but suck is a very strong exaggeration. He’s playing well. He’s making plays. Both td passes were great yesterday. It’s not like he’s doing absolutely nothing. That’s what sucks means. He’s playing well. He’s driving the bus. And yes, the defense is winning the games.
And let me guess.....you don't think it's strong words when the say those things about Dak? And Dak is lights-out better than Rush...hands down. Rush is doing what he's supposed to do with a defense like that. But...if the defense weren't playing lights-out,.....hmm.

It's a shame that some of ya'll just can't be happy with wins unless Dak is the QB.

Also, a question for the OP, why are you "thrilled" we have a QB that you believe "sucks" as the backup?
We say the same thing when Dak is QB. What's even more amazing is when Dak does win, he's criticized to all end for not doing this, not doing that. Sounds like double standard

You should probably grab the pom poms and leave the football discussion to others...... and work on the reading comprehension issue.

Welcome to my "ignore list" with the other board idiots.

they are getting nervous !! So is Dak ! 3-0 !

Next 2 games will tell us more about our defense and rush.
However if dak were starting, would anyone here (besides a few lol) say dak would win both games????
Or even either of them lol, most would be happy going 1-1 with dak.

curious to see how rush does, and how our defense does against 2 good offenses.
Nervous about what? I'm a Cowboys fan first and foremost. No....what a lot of you are hoping for is Rush is QB if we when the next two. It's not going to matter. He's a BACKUP with BACKUP skills that's making few mistakes (with the help of penalties) with the benefits of a lights-out defense....period!

It sounds like you believe a 40 million a year QB should be treated the same as Cooper Rush.
Doesn't sound like that at all to me. What it does sound like is if we WIN with Dak, it hits a lot of you different....like hurt. If we WIN with Rush, to a lot of you he's a top notch QB. Hope this is clarified for you.

Yeah. You're reaching a there.

Nobody thinks Rush is top notch. We just think the biggest difference in him and Dak is the paychecks. That's the problem.

Dak is paid to clearly be the better QB, it shouldn't even be close, there should be no question.

But yet here are, 3-0 without him.

to some of you. Rush is playing well, but with our defense allowing just 1 TD a game, it makes things easier for Rush and I'm glad of it. He had a few bad throws....two ints called back because of penalties. But, he's driving the bus. The offense is not on fire and if it wasn't for our defense the Rush love wouldn't be like it is. But I'm happy we have him for a backup.

C'Mon Man..You Know How Stupid This and You Sound!
If it wasn't for our Defense, Rush would suck.

It Be Like Saying, If it wasn't for our Offence Our D Would Suck.


How about we say, If it wasn't for our Offensive Line Doing a Great Job Of Protection,
Maybe Just Maybe Rush Would SUX...Nuff Said
