I don't care about a top ten. I only care about the Cowboys.
Dak isn't qualified to be the Cowboys quarterback.
I really wish he was. I'd love to cheer him on.
He just isn't.
Dude something mentally wrong with you. Your hatred for Prescott goes far Above than anything rational. You just dislike the quarterback. And that’s OK. But your evaluation is blinded by your hatred.

Look like the guy or don’t. I could care less. I’m just speaking on why does he get people so up in arms. Rush sucked yesterday and everyone is forgiving of it. Dak does it and it’s the end of the world. We know what Dak is and what he isn’t. Or we should at this point.
Rush is a backup QB who wasn't even on the roster not too long ago. He got us 4 wins (okay okay, managed the offense well enough to have the defense get 4 wins). He lost against the lone unbeaten team in the league. Damn right I'm more forgiving than about what Dak has produced.

This isn't even about liking the guy or not. It's just about what our starting QB (aka who should be held to a higher standard) has produced in the last games against contenders.

Let him lead us to another 4 wins straight and we're talkin. :)

I’m appreciative for how well he’s played over the last month and believe he had a big hand in saving our season, but his limitations have been clear, his heroics exaggerated for agenda, and his performance trending down with every start. anyone who has even a single objective bone in their body saw this coming a mile away
I hate that you feel the need to downplay Cooper Rush just to put him...and fans...in their place.

Thankfully we have you here to set things straight. What would we do without you?

Against the two Super Bowl teams, a very good division rival...and made a comeback against the eagles.

Yes...it is true...the defense played a huge part in it.

But let's caveat with grudging credit and make sure to hammer his non-starter status.

Cooper Rush deserves a ton of credit without the "he's no starter" BS.

No that's not what I said. I started he's paid 40x more Cooper..... He should at least deliver 2-3x times more than his backup at least. That's what I'm saying.

The Dak lovers have said he'll blow Rush's numbers away...... Let's see what he delivers.

I'm not correlating the party to stats at all.
Funny thing is he’s been getting hammered in here long before the big check came but that’s in part because of how he got his job

Like I said above we know what Dak is or isn’t. He needs solid coaching and help just like most QBs. Rush was fine in the 4 game stretch. He sucked because his OC sucked. And I don’t care who you are if your OC comes into Sunday with a bad game plan that’s going to cause issues. I know you guys want Dak to overcompensate for that but he can’t.

It’s funny though I’ve been arguing with people for 5 weeks that Dak is better than Rush but I guess people have a change of heart now. @MountaineerCowboy told me he would make Dak expendable and he’d be getting his water for him.

Those SB teams suck this year.

What did he say that was so out of line?

4-1 without him says Dak IS expendable.

I expect 35 PPG now from Dak and at least leading us to 4 straight wins to match our record with Cooper Rush this season. Anything less is a failure.

He once again has gotten injured and became this mythological character while sitting on the sidelines and he will, once again, shrink and fail to live up to your hype. It's the Dak way.

I'm not offended. Even if I was no need for apology.

It was a post game thought...with a dig at people's positive opinion of Rush. This is NOT "post game" assesment:

" his heroics exaggerated for agenda, and his performance trending down with every start. anyone who has even a single objective bone in their body saw this coming a mile away"

Saw what? A not so great game against an undefeated team? It's what many people here wanted anyway.

"out of line" might be too strong of a word.

I have been taking some issue with people that feel the need to crusade against Cooper Rush "starter" capabilities. Many of these same people that were waiting for THIS game...an underwhelming loss...were the same people that wanted to tank the season after the first game.

I'm not telling people how to post or what to say. But...I WOULD like to see us fans just simply give Cooper Rush the credit he deserves for proving everyone wrong...possibly saving our season- AGAINST VERY GOOD TEAMS!. Sure...his stats aren't MVP...but the result could be, if Dak has a strong return.

Any other comments about starter is just bickering chest thumping...and takes away from the accomplishment.

It's just my opinion...no big deal.

Fair enough I don’t necessarily agree with everything you said but not enough to debate over it

complimentary of Rush and a dig at folks who have gone out of their way to over exaggerate and troll the board the past month. You may be above the fray, unfortunately I am not.
