Cooper Rush doesn't have one redeeming quality

Might be the most undeserving player in the NFL.

He does nothing outstanding he can’t move. He has no arm strength. He throws pop flies. He has no emotion. The fans are not clamoring for him like most fan base is clamor for a back up quarterback.

The fan base wants to see the third string quarterback, not him playing/ he does nothing to help the organization moving forward.

There’s really no upside to him even being on the roster he’s completely overpaid.

He was awful in that game yesterday fumbling snaps, terrible decisions weak throws behind the receiver, missing wide open targets.

Not playing Trey Lance a guy that you gave up a fourth round pick for and just riding with a clipboard is beyond asinine. This is the time to see if this guy can actually be a serviceable roster player.

Rush is a guy that was released and played for the Giants and somehow found his way back to Dallas.

Again, he adds nothing to the football team.

If he throws five touchdowns on Thursday, it still means nothing he is neither of the present or the future.

He is terrible, passes are floated out there, wr reaching behind to catch passes, the one to schoonmaker was out front to far he made a great catch. throws 1 yard pass when you need 9 for a first. play lance you can't say lance is terrible if you can't see him play.

Nothing like trashing the guy who threw no interceptions, threw 2 touchdowns and lead the team to a win when they were 12.5 point underdogs. We are lucky he is our backup. We could have a lot worse.

he didn't lead the team to a win. two TDs by special teams. two missed PATs by opposing special teams....it was a special kind of day. he needs to be wiping Turpin's arse all week for saving his arse

I like Rush, he has some skills, seems to read defenses fairly well and doesn't panic in the pocket, but that's about it.

McCarthy dumbed down the offense for Rush, and the defense stepped up big time. Two biggest reasons for the win.

Would also note the comment by the announcer during the game that Rush was never pressured the entire game, people who blame Dak for everything need to go back and review Dak's games, he had pressure in his face probably 50% of his pass attempts.

Put the same pressure on Rush and you'd have Dak 2.0.

Dallas' problems certainly include Dak, but this win may very well turn out to be fool's gold.

We'll see when the Bengals, Bucs and Eagles come to play...

They say he has the ability to motivate players around him and finds a way to win which is all that matters. So the question will remain is why hasn't an NFL GM for another team in need of a QB seen these qualities enough in Rush to want him at least compete for a starting job on their roster. The logic of some is that Rush should get the credit for the defense and special teams playing well. But not receive any blame or fault for games when the defense or special teams plays poorly.

Some are doing the same things they accuse Dak Supporters of doing. When they say Dak Supporters gives Dak all of the credit for wins and yet none of the blame for losses.

Very few teams have a fan base clamoring for the backup QB. Most teams it's pretty clear the starter is the better option.

That said, while I agree Rush isn't a guy to get excited about, and he does have physical limitations, the NFL is full of backups that aren't exciting options. And most of them aren't either "the present" or "the future". Most are just guys to drive the bus if the starter is out.

They keep on crediting him saying that he is the reason for the Cowboys being 5-1 0r 7-3. But again if he QB play was actually the main factor for why the Cowboys have this record with him as a starter, then one would think some NFL GM would at least share this viewpoint at some time and offer the Cowboys front office some first round picks for Rush. QBs like Pickett and Riddler have been traded to other teams, even when their actual W-L record isn't impressive. Yet for some reason Cooper Rush has yet to find a consistent job outside of being the back up for the Cowboys. Despite this W-L record some keep on crediting him for. If Rush's agent believed this W-L record could translate into Rush getting a starting job elsewhere, one would believe he would encourage Rush to explore free agency. Rather than staying a back up on the Cowboys.

You went right to "first round picks"...plural. your intellectually dishonest comment is very revealing.

So you value your own players based on thd value placed by other teams?

Weird...but try to enjoy the win as best as you can manage.

so he won the game yesterday? really....wow if he is not kissing Turpin's arse today, he is a selfish player. Turpin with one move saved him all by himself

I know you stopped watching games when Dak got hurt.

If you still watched you’d know that the Cowboys were ahead when Turpin returned that kick.

Dak fans, I tell ya.
