Are the players potentially showing their disgust with the ridiculous contract paid Dak and letting Jerry know by playing to a much different level for Rush? I don't know that answer but it bears some consideration. Dak "says" all the right stuff and then basically takes the money with no regard for team building. For the short term, I'd rather see Rush and his NFL second-best quick release (2.3 seconds) than Dak taking a week to read defenses and holding the ball until sundown. Getting rid of it makes up for a lot of deficiency in the OL and at WR. Rush is not the "answer." But, he's more the answer than Dak who has this team in contract purgatory.
Perhaps the rest of the team (the little people), agree?
How insanely ridiculous that is it's insanely ridiculous this place is out of control and no nobody's gonna agree except for those who already hated Prescott how did Prescott in a single year as a rookie become rookie of the year and win 13 games which is more than probably Cooper rush will have his whole career if you need to know who the better quarterback is if the team needs to know who the better quarterback is we just go to one year where he won eleven in a row they sure worked hard for him that year...
How about we get to the contract how about the one that he got in 2020 when he snapped his ankle off and rehabbed his **** off never held out got paid at the time was one of the top pays in the league at 42,000,000 had one of his best years how did they win 12 games in 2021 without the help of Cooper rush it's insane I don't know I'm trying to figure out how Prescott through 37 touchdowns and 10 interceptions and why did it turn on him then virtually the same team.
How about 2023 DID Cooper rush help the Dallas Cowboys get to 12 wins in 2023 when Prescott was second in MVP voting the second team all pro I mean apparently they played hard for them you're trying to tell me that in one off season where he didn't hold up he didn't hold the team up for money like Martin and lamb did he came in and worked hard as a leader and got his money anyway he didn't need to threaten a holdout....
I'm trying to figure out how Prescott in his very impressive career so far hasn't been the top five in a lot of NFL categories not just Dallas cowboy categories the man's on his way to winning where real football players coaches and G miss and real fans that are not casuals can see the fact that this is a really ridiculous post real professionals know who the better quarterback is and we all know why this is happening the defense in the offensive line the special teams are all playing better mostly because of the coaching Staffs got desperate whenever they lost all their players the writing is on the wall the seasons all but over they're fighting for contracts they just basically throwing out everything with the kitchen sink in the tone out the baby with the bathwater they're literally being aggressive and just going out there and playing to win games no matter what because they know a loss well that's imminent anyway you know much easier it is to coach and play under those conditions?
I can tell you right now if you're only going to read one thing and I'll put this in bold letters ,
the biggest difference in the last five weeks other than the fact that the season was already over the writing was already on the wall ,
was Mike McCarthy's play calling the use of bold play calls with motion just throwing everything out of the bottom of the playbook versus the most horribly vanilla game plans and strategies and in game play calling I've ever seen two years in a row. Literally did not use rico nor Turpin much at all , didn't settle on the best 5 on the OL vs names,
it took him too long to use motion to use players where they needed to be used properly and to figure out what the best solutions were for his team going forward he basically was trying not to lose games the first half of the season and now he's doesn't have any pressure on him, he's basically just calling everything which he should have been doing from day one same thing on the other side our defense is getting healthy Mike Zimmer is getting super aggressive because they can they feel like they have nothing to lose now they should have been coaching like this from game one through game 8 and not wait till most of our stars went down before they threw all this out before they became aggressive...
The fact that you don't notice this tells me you're a very casual fan, that you had to bring this up as another Dak hater thread... it literally is, don't try to say it was never meant that way,
this team is playing better and harder because the coaching staff has let them know it was OK to do so... I know it sounds weird doesn't it , but when you're calling aggressive play calls, you're throwing everything out that you possibly can to win a game, it runs through the team, not when you're playing not to lose, that also settles into there's mentality afraid to make mistakes and instead making mistakes.
