Clock struck midnight on Rush

[blueblood70]

I was shocked ay how weak his arm strength was.

Not me its who he is..we played with house money finally paid for it..time for dak to work his way back into the flow.

 

[khiladi]

dak would 100% win that game last night. he always dominates the Eagles. 3 turnovers, noodle arm exposed. I mean on one of the throws, I went to the kitchen, made a sandwich, realized I didn't have mustard, so ran to the store, got two kinds of mustard, got a beer and came back, took a bite from the awsome sandwich, just in time to see the ball getting almost intercepted....I mean really, it was in super slow motion, but then the announcers said it was real time

and btw, he did great emulation of Dalton, trying to hit side of the barn and missing the barn....

he sure dominated against Wentz in 2019, when it was for the playoffs and threw over 40 times against third-string corners and could only muster 9 pts and 3 FGs…

Yeah, those Eagles teams he beat up on with a much better roster were quite impressive..

 

[StuckMojo]

Good luck ever winning once you get down big with Rush and his noodle arm.

We did cut it to 3 early in 4th then Philly had shoved down our D’s throat for a 7 min TD drive

The Eagles haven't beaten the Cowboys with Dak since 2019 I believe, (Correct me if I'm wrong). But for some reason there were those who wanted to push a "Dak is afraid of Philly" narrative and those who wanted to insist in Rush being the better option to go against the Eagles over Dak, even though the Eagles last win against the Cowboys came against a backup QB.

 

[Cowboysheelsreds053]

Actually he was a lot better when he was down 20-0 that he was early!

Yes

 

[TexasHillbilly]

Well by all means let's get Dak back in there. The guy that only scores against terrible teams. Put up 3 points.on tampa week 1. Lol.

Here is where it stands. We have 6 years of knowing where Dak gets us. I don't mind giving coop a season to do better.

But yeah we knew 1 loss is all that coop gets before you guys jumped back on the weak 3 wheeled Dak wagon.

Good luck with ever winning a Superbowl with him.

He's all we have unless you can crap out a starting qb. It doesn't matter who is at the qb position for the Cowboys. If he isn't a Tom Brady, I always hear, "we will never win a sb with this guy". I don't care what anybody says, it's still fun to watch. By the way, our D is legit.

 

[NotForLong]

NotForLong.....I am implying that the expectations have ceased that Cooper Rush can be a regular starter at QB. He is a backup for a reason, and it showed more glaringly against the Eagles. It has been masked at bit in recent weeks because we were winning. All you need to do is look at the throws and the yardarge. Nobody is asking him to sling for 400 yards, but he is limited. This a PSA for some on this board and Skip Bayless. Hats off to Cooper Rush, but he ain't a starting QB. If you didn't see that, I don't know what to tell you other than perhaps paying a visit to the local optometrist. Nothing personal.

The term starting QB is devoid of meaning . . . Because the meaning is different to emeveryone who uses it.

To me it has no meaning . . . Staring QB is whoever your team has to put out there. Dak went down and Cooper picked up the pieces and performed admirably

Right now Cooper is the starting QB unless Dak is healthy and then Dak will be the starter. . . Then the fun will begin

But truth be told if Dak was out for the year I woukd feel Cooper would make this team competitive . . . Could the Boys win a Championship with Cooper? A million things would have to go right. . . But equal to worse QBs have won before.

Cooper as QB wasn't gonna go undefeated any way

Truth be told I don't have faith in Dak. I wouod like to but I don't

So I am really interested to see how Dak performs . . . I am not saying its guaranteed He fails, anything is possible. Hopefuly it all clicks for Him. He is more physically gifted

If it all clicks and he suceess I wouldn't be mad. I woukd be delighted because I do not want this years Defense and possibly Quinn's last season here to go to waste

 

[leeblair]

If you enjoyed winning scoring less than 20 points have at it. But don’t get mad at the defense because they can’t play over their heads all game just to justify Rush’s play.

I'm sorry you don't get it, but I get frustrated when the defense sits back and continues to let the opposing offense run the same play back to back to back right up the middle of the line.
They played great, but not then.

I'm looking forward to seeing you guys get your hopes up, and then having them dashed AGAIN when Prescott plays like Rush did last night against EVERY good team.

No joke. Rush last night and week 1 Dak were basically identical. Except Daks price tag is about $38 million more a year.....

My favorite is Rush is lucky, because the opposing team should have more INTs, but they dropped them. Look at this beauty from 2018, throwing off his back foot with zero pressure into what should have been a clear pick 6.

Ok....I'm hopeful of good performances by our QBs, regardless of who it is. Don't overthink it. The difference between our two QBs is pay and expectations. No slight on either one.

Can you post some bonehead calls by our OC while you're at?

 

[RonnieT24]

Actually he was a lot better when he was down 20-0 that he was early!

Garbage time stats..

 

[khiladi]

Remember the route last game when Rush threw it to the sideline to Gallup and the Rams coach was basically not six feet back and Dak-Stan’s were talking about the spiral to bash Rush and pretend like Dak doesn’t do this regularly years into the starting job?

wow, you had to go 3 years back to dig something up....interesting. shows desparattion...What's Dak's record against Philly? but knowing your angry hatred you expect it to be 100% else its a failure..

I didn’t need to “dig it up”… facts are you were wrong. Dak also didn’t win a game when down at halftime in 2019.. yet we are supposed to believe he’s some sort of shootout specialist.. wow, Dak beat up on pathetic Eagles teams multiple times, so suddenly we suppose to believe this mediocrity would have beaten an Eagles team that was 5-0, meaning the stakes were higher like when he played against Wentz for the playoffs, but couldn’t even exploit CBs off the street? Sure Buddy..

I know it’s difficult trying to come to terms with the fact you got to defend this guy against Cooper Rush, when you were yapping as nauseum about how he’s top-tier with guys like Brady for years..

 

[CowboysFaninHouston]

The big difference is that Rush tried to produce early, but even then the refs didn't give him credit.
But you'll enjoy Dak being back and last night was just to remind you what it's like.

rush tried to produce early...ooookkk then...so he gets a participation trophy? either you produce or you don't, which rush clearly undoubtedly didn't...your wet dreams are shattered once again. just like your Kellen Moore is a HOF QB and Tashard Choice is better than Emmitt Smith....don't you get tired of being wrong so often.

and are you insinuating that Dak doesn't try? so he doesn't get a participation trophy?

 

[CowboysFaninHouston]

We did cut it to 3 early in 4th then Philly had shoved down our D’s throat for a 7 min TD drive

so I should ask, cutting it to three, would that be considered garbage time? or not?

 

[Romo_To_Dez]

I'm sorry you don't get it, but I get frustrated when the defense sits back and continues to let the opposing offense run the same play back to back to back right up the middle of the line.
They played great, but not then.

Interesting how because didn't you make claims that Dak supporters would blame the defense, OL, WRs, coaches etc whenever the Cowboys lost or will lose a game with him as QB. Yet you are blaming the defense, who should have stepped up when the lead was cut to 20-17. But still was the main reason for why the Cowboys were still in the game at that point and was the reason for why the Cowboys won 4 games.

And they were put in bad position by Rush turning the ball over and giving Philly's offense short fields.
