Do you think Dak is hiding from the Eagles game?

[WarDaddy]

Ok after what we have seen from this offense the last two games, I would want Dak to play. After the first two games I was saying how much better we have looked on certain plays, but these last two games Rush has been very limited. I am guessing because there is tape on him now and the Defenses are now limiting the things he does best. Again that’s a guess as I am no expert are have any experience, and don’t try to act like I know more then them. Also the commentator was saying how Rush can’t throw to the sidelines with any velocity. IDK

I honestly think that’s what led to the drops yesterday. The ball took half and hour to get there for Gallup and he mistimed his jump. On CeeDee’s drop, the defender was allowed to get back into the play because the ball floated a little.

Both balls should have been caught but I can understand why they weren’t.

Rush has been great. I love how he has stepped up but he’s not a starting caliber QB due to the arm strength. If you’re going to be immobile, you better have a cannon.

I don't think Dak is scared at all and wants to get back on the field asap. It's crazy to think otherwise.

However, if I'm the person in charge of putting him back in I'm concerned if his hand is fully healed so soon and if it's strong enough to throw the passes that he needs to. I don't think it's anything more than that.

Nobody in their right mind would start Dak agaisnt the Eagles. For starters you play the hot hand and not until he's 100% healthy.

Now it gets interesting if we beat Philly and Daks healthy for Detroit. IMO if we beat the Eagles Rush is the starter until he puts a couple clunkers together.

Or that the organization is hiding him to give him a softer landing spot versus the Lions at home the following week?

Having to come back at Philly when your replacement hasn’t lost in a month is a tough predicament.

Seriously, Prescot hasn't beat a team with a decent record since the first half of last season. He struggles in MEANINGFUL games and to have him play in the TURDS game would be a huge mistake because he lacks the brain power to make quick decisions.

 

[Iago33]

no you are just dumb enough to believe Dr Jerry's nonsense about him being ready in 4 weeks after having surgery on his thrown hand.

Jerry was trying to sell Dak being back in two weeks! He’s the one that should be getting heat

No way in Jerry Hell does Dreck play against the Eagles.
A bad loss and manhandling of Dreck against the eagles could scar him for the life of his NFL contract.

Yup+yup
He'll have his hands full with Detroit

 

[mmohican29]

I think it's both.

Dak and the organization would much rather Rush play bad than Dak play bad this Sunday.

This.

The season is not on the line and the ramifications here for a rusty Prescott to drop a game, vs Rush's legendary race to 5 straight victories as starting QB before "giving the keys back to Dad(k)" could be the end of cohesive team chemistry.

Dak gets the start vs Detroit. I bet if there ever was a game vs Philly the Cowboys FO was ever secretly totally ambivalent about: it is this next contest.

Stop being mean to Dak!!!
Leave Dak alone!

 

[starfan1]

No, he's injured and was never going to be ready before Detroit anyways...this had all been smoke and mirrors

I must admit I thought he may play this week

 

[SteveTheCowboy]

What even is this post? I'm not a big Dak fan, but cmon dude. This is nonsense. At 4-1, we take things slow and let him heal. Original outlook was 6-8 weeks.

So THIS is the post you object to? Of all the OTHER JA posts here? WHAT the.....

no

 

[SteveTheCowboy]

why?
he's owned the eagles.
i think they are waiting to get to the bye week.
give the thumb as much time as possible to fully heal.
no need to hide anybody from anything.
we're on a...what...9-0 streak vs our division rivals...a streak dak has contributed to.
wish to hell people would stop with the urban myths about the eagles.

So you want to continue to bank on beating up the NFC east?

Streaks change...you gotta know when to hold em...know when to fold em...know when to...

Well you know the thing.

 

[ShortRound]

Hahaha

 

[Jipper]

yeah, I think what we are hearing sounds like 3 weeks out..:

1 or 2 weeks of healing still needed, 1 or 2 weeks to get in game shape

No.

This place is really getting out of control.

none of that has anything to do with dak sitting out because he's afraid of some urban myth in philly.

 

[cowboyec]

wish to hell you people would make up your minds....dak sucks...dak's scared....rams are a test...rams suck...i can't keep up with all these fake narratives from fake fans.

 

[SteveTheCowboy]

That isn;t what I objected to.

You said don;t worry! we've dominated the NCF east with...what...9-0 record? We can;t rely on THAT.

Any given Sunday.

If you wanted to make a statement about a myth...then just say that.
