Didn't ask about the Steelers.
One shouldn't mention Mahomes when discussing Mr. Prescott.

So so what are the rules and regulations here? Because I took you for a smart guy but it seems I have to make my stance the way you want me to.

Don't hold your breath.

Guy walks around with a Louis Vuitton handbag for Pete's sake and claims it is a motivational accessory to keep him focused on the Super Bowl.

He's a lot of things but humble isn't one of them, and it never will be. Supremely arrogant and has a grossly overinflated sense of his own value.

It’s almost like the team is rallying around Cooper Rush to prove Dak wrong

You guys keep saying this but don’t acknowledge the best downs just the wins lol. I guess McCarthy needs an extension too lol.

-Still don’t get it- it’s code for they don’t have an answer for anything and are hurting really bad. Daks a better QB he just didn’t play like one with better players. Dak is here for at least 3 years and unless there’s a HC change he won’t do anything but more failures, blame Jerry he’s the root cause of the problem, he pays the average players elite money and yes men HCs what do you expect. Don’t know what Dak will be after the injury but if this season was preview then the next 3 years will be hard to watch.

LOL

I can already imagine your rants the next 3 years.

Based on what lol? This may be your opinion but there is nothing factual about it. So the team respects Rush when they play the Panthers but when he passes for 46 yards an and get the breaks beat off them they don’t respect him?

I think when Dak plays this team doesn’t believe they can get over the hump but when Cooper Rush plays they see a man. We are missing the playoffs but we are going down fighting. Gotta love rush

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.

Stopped reading after you said lost to NE lol but agree, there’s no truly elite teams and we coulda made the playoffs if the defense was historically bad early

If I was 35 again I would have been able to beat Dak straight up in a sprint. I was faster and more agile than him

The question is . . . why?

I think the answer is relatively straightforward and includes a few things:
- Cooper gets the ball out fast and makes the simple throw whereas Dak will hold it longer and take higher risk shots.
- Cooper takes a lot of snaps from under center, which gives the RB a quicker run at the line of scrimmage and allows for play action

When Dak holds the ball and plays every snap out of the gun, he kills the run game, makes the O line look bad and with sacks and turnovers, puts the defense in a terrible spot. This goes back to Parcells. Dallas just needs a bus driver.

Dak can do these things when he comes back. Hopefully this whole exercise is a lesson and if Dallas gains anything from this "run" its a humbled Dak Prescott for the rest of his tenure here.

In the NFL there isn’t ever just one answer. The team got healthier, running game got better, defense got better….offensive line got better….

Rush does get the ball out faster and while it’s great when you can get YAC it’s a burden when you can’t. Which is why we see him have 46 passing yards against Philly and why we see Dak get sacked. He’s holding the ball for a big play that isn’t there.

Bengals suck have you seen them this year? One dimensional garbage.

I’m telling you he’s a lot slower this year. He’s lost his speed.

Well he’s never been a runner to begin with since his rookie season…..people just thought he was based on how he looked but he was never a mobile qb and feetwork in the pocket has always been in question.

Rush is calm, cool, while Dak gets rattled and that deer in the headlights look...

Rush was rusty but has been 4-2 since.

I’m not knocking Rush or saying he’s bad. I’m just using your argument that they only respect guys when they win….so they respected Dak in 3 games this year but didn’t in the losses?

They said during the game Rushs release time was 2.3 seconds, second quickest in the league.

That said the line and defense have been much better as they've had a chance to gel.

It is pretty obvious that Rush knows where he wants to go with the ball. He isn't going through a bunch of reads. Fewer turnovers=more wins. Simple formula. Is he a Super Bowl QB? Probably not. But had he started game one, we'd have 3 more victories.

Based on what? He was gonna miraculously get an arm and throw fit 5 touchdowns?

I can already imagine your rants the next 3 years.

No rants the last 9 years, he is what he is and most understand that, you have the rants and meltdowns, and now with a less than jag QB doing as well or better than your chosen one you are having a difficult time understanding what happened. You are right in that Dakchoka will be here at least 3 more years sadly and the laughs will keep coming I can’t wait to read posts and excuses, he stubbed his toe, he has a hang nail, the sun was in his eyes, keep the laughs coming

Cooper Rush is 4-3 with the same team Dak was 3-5 with
