Cooper Rush makes the Cowboys a better team

Cooper Rush is a lot better than Dak.
I left the forum, and had no intention of coming back.
But the record needs to be set straight:
Against the Commanders, Rush drove the Cowboys to what should have been six points early from field goals, with Aubrey missing one, while the other was blocked. The Cowboys should have had six more points, making all of the drama at the end unnecessary.
The Cowboys dominated time of possession by eight minutes. This allowed the defense to play better, not being worn out.
Rush moved the ball even when the Cowboys didn't score, letting the Cowboys defense rest.
Rush gave the team the leadership it had been missing. Even vs the Texans he played well. And he is coming in cold, just getting a chance.
The game vs the Eagles is on McCarthy; he restricted the offense, being too tentative to allow Rush to exploit the Eagles defense.
And for the Dak lovers to be trolling and knocking the guy who has breathed life into the Cowboys offense shows they only care about propping up Dak.
The Cowboys can play as a team because they finally have a quarterback. It's not a coincidence that the defense plays better when Rush is in the game. He doesn't go three and out on every series and he lets the defense rest.
It’s not a coincidence that the run game is better because Rush is a threat the defense must account for in the passing game.
Is Rush the answer? I don't know. But he IS better than Dak.
But it is clear that Jerry Jones has wasted the last eight years with Dak, and now the next four.
Dak Prescott IS NOT an elite QB.
Rush, however, has repeatedly proven he is a capable quarterback.
A strong arm is useless if you don't know how to use it. Dak has proved that.
Rush uses his abilities to lead the Cowboys offense.

There is no universe where Cooper Rush is better than Dak. The Cowboys offensive line and TEs did a much better job of blocking and Rush did a good job of throwing his checkdowns but there is a reason the offense only had 3 points through 3 quarters, they couldn't convert 3rd downs and made one big play in the passing game in the entire first half.

Very true, just like the same for Dak and i'm not saying anyone is better because they're both you know what!!!! Dak has severe touchdown withdraw syndrome in the red zone, he just says NO to them, and throws it away

Hello?
It was Rush who kept the Commanders offense off the field, allowing the Cowboys defense to play better when they were in the game.
Not to mention the intangibles; the Cowboys players believe that Rush gives them a chance, and everyone plays better.
Intangibles make a huge impact in games.

Beat the NYG Thursday and the tankers will be mad, the Dak fans will have excuses, and Rush fans will be out in full force.
Yeah this could be fun.
Dak after 4 games 2-2.

Number of those 4 teams currently with a winning record. 1.

Rush after 4 games 2-2.

Number of those 4 teams faced currently with a winning record. 3.

I’m here for the chaos.

The offense was garbage for almost the entire game, just like the week before. It was a fun win, and I am sure they will get another vs the hapless Giants, then it will be back to reality.

You must have watched a different game.
The game I watched saw the Cowboys moving the ball well on offense in the first half.
