Cooper Rush not willing to give up QB2 spot without a fight

[TheMarathonContinues]

It must have been that the coaching staff needed to work with him more.

Now after a full offseason of learning it's now or never for Lance.

Cant wait to see him in the preseason.

I mean that's the excuse they gave they're working him in slow. I wouldn't have cared. They wanted to protect him from potentially looking bad.

Yeah He was great... down 27 vs the prevent...vs the 7 seed..at home..

Prevent??? At least GB's defense was trying prevent us from scoring.

 

[Chasing6]

Doubt he gets traded either when nobody even bothered to sign him last year without giving up a pick/player. Shocking that a guy that went 4-1 on a team like this couldn't get signed.

Why would you trade your number 2 QB and have a none QB Athlete be your back up?

Cooper Rush not willing to give up QB2 spot without a fight​

That fight was over on August 25 last year.

True but I would take Cooper over at least half a dozen (maybe more) backs around the league. In other words, if the Cowboys made him available, I def think they could find a trade partner. Maybe no more than a 6th or 7th rounder but still

At this point I would trade Trance for $5.3M cap space.

Man i'd sure as hell hope he can at least do that.

I didn't understand why he wasn't the backup last year. I would've made him backup last year so he could get some reps in games.

Because he sucks.

The most they could get for him would be an 8th-round 2025 draft pick.

Because he sucks.

I'm not denying or confirming that all i'm saying is I would've rather seen him last year and get an idea of what we have.

Are the Cowboys "Drama Queens" or what? Three of the star players are demanding new contracts and ownership does not know how to handle it. The HC is reportedly an unhappy lame duck. And now we have a freaking backup QB controversy. That is correct: BACKUP QB.

If you seen it, you would have wished you hadn't.

No I wouldn' thave lol.

I know you want to make it about Lance but that's nothing to do with what I said.

 

[nate dizzle]

Because everyone who saw us go 4-1 knew it wasn’t because of him. That record is just what some of y’all cling to. Cowboys won in spite of him not because of him.

Funny thing is...couldn't agree more. Just highlights how good that team was. Even a garbage qb like Rush could go 4-1.

The defense was playing great football at the time like they typically do. Then by season end they stall out.

Amazing.

There is no backup QB controversy, Jerry has already decided that.

"...because the Dallas offense, including Dak, sucked so bad in the 1st half."

Where did I solely blame Dak? I clearly blamed the entire offense, but you are so focused on your Dak defense crusade you toss reading comprehension aside and make stuff up. It's super lazy to ignore what was really said.

I have never once put the Green Bay loss on Dak alone. But there are numerous instances where you blame everyone but Dak. Post #19 is yet another example of this.

Let's see, where did I say the loss was everyone's fault but Dak's? I'll wait to see if you correct your lie.

Most of his fighting will have to be during training camp practices because according to McCarthy Lance will get most of the work in preseason.

I don’t believe that’s already been decided. Cooper Rush won 5 games during the 2022 season, which saved our season until Dak returned. If Lance doesn’t look good in preseason he won’t be the backup.

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

Amazing.

Truth hurts
