Does Prescott Actually Start this Game?

I saw he was listed as questionable.

Say he practices tomorrow and plays well.

Could questionable turn into probable?

Does Dallas let the Eagles prepare for Rush all week then slip them a dose of Dak?

0 chance Dak starts.

But...if Dak performs well during Saturday's practice, don't be surprised if he gets moved to backup QB for this game in case Cooper Rush struggles.

No. He didn't even participate in today's walkthrough.

He's not ready to play and it would be a mistake, not "let's surprise the Eagles", to trot him out there.

Eagles fans are hoping he doesn't play.. Just a thought.

I'm not sure either way. It's a big game. And I think Rush may give you the best shot. I would not be surprised if Dak is suited up, though.

I really don’t know why this question is being asked they’ve been preparing Cooper Rush all week to start. It may be another two games before Dak is ready to play.

What Eagles fans want has as much bearing on the situation as what Cowboys fans want.

He didn't play well in week one and he's barely practiced since then. He's not ready to play.

Dak will come in for the Landry Shift kneel down.

No, actually when it gets to that point, Cooper gets to do that as he will have earned it.

Please allow Dak to play so we can all see what he can do against the undefeated Eagles and a quality Dallas defense.

Cowboys management is playing their usual game of checkers against chess.

I think the Eagles would like for them to run him out there prematurely and let them get their pass rushers around that right hand. I would expect Prescott to be a little twitchy around helmets and players' hands when that pocket gets crowded. Not the time to start him.

The other side of that is what if they start him and he's not ready and plays poorly? Now, they've got that QB controversy the idiot owner wants.

Let Prescott stick to the post game interview telling us how much better it's going to be when he returns.

I’m all for rush starting and playing well putting up a 300 yard 3 TD 0 pick effort

his noodle arm becoming stronger. The run game putting up 150 plus and the defense being stellar and allowing just 15 pts!!

but then reality sets in! Go cowboys
