This hasn’t been the same team, especially the defense. The defense was historically bad early in the season and now it’s playing like one of the best units in the league. We’re consistently stopping the run, getting sacks and getting turnovers.

When Dak was losing games, the defense gets the blame for being terrible. Flip the coin, and now that Rush is winning game, all of a sudden the defense is playing great!

Dak lose game = defense sucks.
Rush win game - defense great.

Man, the Dak cannot do anything wrong it just has to be someone else's doing for him sucking!

Cooper is a smart QB. Dak really isn’t. Whatever physical limitations the former has in physicality with his noodle arm, he compensates for by seeing the field well and getting rid of the ball quickly. He also protects the ball decently by playing within himself and sustains drives even if they don’t result in points or TDs. It’s not like he had much of a rushing game yesterday either.

Can you rush fans stop. If dak had this time to throw and a running game he would have won all of the games not to mention the defense is the mvp of this stretch

The defense is playing good because they are not back on the field after a 3 and out, over and over and over.

Dak can't even stay on the field for an entire season. He is a broken mental player. Year nine is not going to be a calk walk. His time is coming to pass.

So did the offense do anything in the second half. Not really it was the defense
Right, because they were not worn out coming back on the field after Dak goes three and out, over and over and over.

Rush may not be the second coming, but he at least allows the defense some friggen rest.

Even in the GB playoff game a player said they were tired, and guess what? That is because Dak was giving away points like candy and going three and out, three and out, three and out. Yeah, you could get tired.

I’m just saying Rush hasn’t played tougher opponents. He just hasn’t. He’s played the division and a really terrible Bengals team.
LOL I would like to see your list of the teams you consider tough !
Saying Bengals are trash is kind of silly. They have lost to only playoff teams ,KC, ravens twice,Wash, Eagles,Steelers,and chargers. They lost 1st game to NE. They won all the other games.
Most teams have lost to KC, Ravens, and Eagles.
Cin is a good team that has a porous defense.

There are only a few elite teams each year, and they are not really elite, they are just the best that year. I would say teams with 3 losses or less are those teams. 4-6 losses are the good teams, who will all probably make the playoffs.

Some teams have harder schedules, and Cin was one of those teams. They are not trash, just not good enough as a whole to make the playoffs.
Tampa bay is a good team too, and now with the loss to dallas, may not make playoffs. I think they are better than the falcons, but falcons may win the div now.

I think right now dallas is a playoff caliber team, they just lost too many games early on, and that knocked them out of playoff contention.

Rush is not the answer for this team. He is benefitting from a easier playbook and finally a back that can run. When dak had a fresh zeke. You could play action and screens.
