Twitter: Aikman: If Cowboys beat Eagles, QB1 becomes hard question

[MarionBarberThe4th]

And Dak had all of 134 yards at an average of only 4.6 yards per completion with only a 48.3% completion rate with 0 td's and 1 int. people need to stop with the rush can only throw for 100 yards nonsense. He's passed for 235, 215, 223, and yes 102 all while the offense has scored at least 20+ points in 4 straight games.

Almost like rush puts the team first hmm

Goes along with what I already said. Take a sentence out of a paragraph, and the information is garbage. It's what the media does, and what the click bait line of this post does. I don't have to be a "Dakstan" to know he's better than Rush. Eat your fools gold if ya want.

 

[JoeKing]

Rush passed for 102 yards against the Rams

More importantly, the team beat the Rams with Rush at QB. The stats you present don't trump this fact.

 

[Doomsday101]

If dak put up 100 and we won,why wouldn't we be happy...it's a win.. we've seen games where he put up 300+ yards and lost..give me the win every time,imo.

I would be happy with the win but anytime you see weakness you look to correct it. No matter if it Rush or Dak or any other part of the team. Seems your view is we won and do not need to correct anything the offense is great. It is not great there is much work on offense. I don't put it all on Rush but this offense needs to pick up the pace.

I think hes just doing whats asked. Minnesota required more passing. He did it. The rams didnt require much and he did it. Good complimentary football.

 

[Shane612]

I hope being challenged by Rush makes Dak take his game up few levels, but then I think by now he is who he is.

 

[CowboyFrog]

This is every good team’s strategy against the Cowboys WHEN Dak is in the game and it usually works.

Lets stop acting like this gameplan is only going to be used against Rush.

Ooh i thought they literally showed how the good defenses are rushing 4 and covering with 7...maybe you should rewatch those games. Denver started it, what they have done is force us to win running the ball and take away the big plays and make KM/Dak be patient. How can you be so wrong about very easy to look up stuff? cover 3 "Full zone" i mean you literally have to ignore everything to say this stuff. lol

Literally ran cover 3 all game and stopped the run with rushing 4..happened alot after the injuries again, dropped into coverage and made them be patient....these good defenses all could stop our run AND get pressure with 4 down no QB thrives under that. Saying that Dak didnt play well for sure. Show me the article when a defense guy says "We came in to let them run the ball"

 

[Whirlwin]

I am thrilled this defense is keeping us in ball games the running game is putting up points , And we have an excellent field-goal kicker. Now we need to put touchdowns on the board through the passing game. Then I’ll be happy with the guy behind center

 

[zerofill]

Well, not exactly mistake free, but lucky his mistakes haven't bitten him in the butt yet.

He got a deal on necklace of 20 rabbit feet. You can't stop his luck now!!

 

[zerofill]

Do teams get extra points for passing for more yards?

in fantasy...

 

[TexasBoys2288]

Stats, my friend.

That's what matters to the Dallas Prescott fans.

They don't care that we won by 2 TDS, but instead they care that Rush didn't have crazy stats.

A W is a W, am I right? Not every team or QB wins by passing for 450 yards. The only stat that ever matters to me is a big Win.

 

[TexasBoys2288]

There is no question at all as it stand now:


Dallas offense:

• 2nd worst at reaching the RZ
• 4th worst on 3rd downs
• Over the last 4 weeks 3 & out %: 10% 27% 46% 60%
• TD rate: 20% 18% 15% 10%
• 71% of the scoring have been FGs highest in the NFL

Dallas Team Led By QB - 2022:
Dak - Loss (Very ugly game)
Rush - Win
Rush - Win
Rush - Win
Rush - Win

Be happy.

 

[GimmeTheBall!]

Not if Rush looks like crap doing so. If he drops 450 on the Eagles, then you start to ponder.

450?

 

[MarcusRock]

450?

Egads, unpleasant sow. Have you no couth? Methinks you need to be re-instructed at the local nunnery. Have you mum expend the 50 quid. Too much dark sarcasm in the classroom for you.

 

[cowboys1981]

There is no controversy. Also Dak cant be traded or release. His contract has too much money left and he has a no trade clause. If anything Rush may have earn his pay day out of Dallas next year.

Not saying it'll happen but the no trade clause only means Dak can waive it to a team of his desire if he wanted to be traded.

 

[Pass2Run]

Rush passed for 102 yards against the Rams

Enough to win.

Do you give Dak a pass when he puts up horrible stats but wins the game?

Says it all right there. 49ers invited Dak to win the game and he declined. Bragged all off-season and peed his pants again opening day
