I'll just say that I think he's doing a great job and I don't think he is any kind of savior.. Anyone that wants to trade us a couple of high picks. I am a seller and I like the guy!

He, modestly, gives the credit to the defense. They're playing very well, but he's doing his job.


That’s a very misleading stat . But that’s how the media spins these things.

Of course Dak lost his first start but won 11 in a row. Lol

Staubach first season starting in 1971 begun 3-3 before running off 10 straight .

I don't see anything misleading about a simple statement of fact. The team around him makes an obvious difference, but he's doing his part.

Aikman has the longest QB losing streak to begin a Cowboys career, but no one would suggest Rush is better because of this start. At least, I'd hope not.

These type of stats can often fuel misleading narratives. First of all it’s just 3 in a row this year.

I’m not attempting to down play how terrific his performance has been . It’s a great story but I’m not sure the importance of such a stat.

Take a look around. Narratives are going to exist with or without such stats. Narratives also create discussion.

It's not like narratives are going to have any bearing on decisions made at The Star. They're just chatter.

I understand but IMO it’s useless chatter.

We should be excited we’re winning with Rush without that type of useless chatter.
