Gardner Minshew will start at QB against Dallas

[Beast_from_East]

If we lose and Dak throws 2 interceptions, there's no more excuses for him.

Isnt 2 picks a game the average stat line for Dak these days

Oh man, if we lose at home to the Eagles with Minshew at QB just after losing to the Jags and barely beating the Texans.................wow, no words, total humiliation

That's why I said 2 INts.

 

[Typhus]

I wonder what other bad words Stinky *** McCoy will say about Dak after the Cowboys take care of the beagles Christmas eve?

Careful, that could be billboard material.

Worst part is they celebrate winning the division on our field

Smart by the Eagles.

If Hurts played I'd be telling everyone to punish him within the rules each opportunity, despite score or outcome.

This game is almost meaningless. Would still like to win it.

 

[Ring6]

this is the beginning of the end for yet another Eagles QB

 

[Darthkuriboh]

True he can be good but what he does not have is the big ability to run. Eagles have lived off the RPO and with the real threat of Hurts pulling it and running. Much of the eagles run game has depended on Hurts running who has over 700 yard rushing. Cowboys need to come in focused and ready because as you said he has game but he does not present the same problems that Hurts does

No he’s not a runner but tbh the qb’s job is to throw the ball. That, Minshew does 10x better than Hurts

Start Cooper Rush this week so their won't be any excuse on why they didn't have Jalen Hurts..Hell why not!!lol.

 

[rambo2]

You can pretty much guarantee he will have his career best game against us
It is a NFL Tradition
Back up QBs always have great games against the boys

Can you name one this season?

 

[rambo2]

well this team has a way of making backups and "little" guys look good.

Like who?

 

[rambo2]

Why do I feel I am on an Eagles fan board...oh, wait...I am...

It certainly is weird, isn't it.

 

[rambo2]

We saw him last year when they played all their backups. With Brown he could be really good.

He could be good and he could be bad. He hasn't been playing, so it could go either way. It will be a good game regardless.

 

[rambo2]

Could Minshew be auditioning for the Cowboys starting QB next year. If Dak loses this game and I don't care how I would cut his arse right away.

That's ridiculous.

 

[rambo2]

Gotcha.

Whether some fans want to admit it or not, the Cowboys are trending downward and they need to turn it around.

They have won 6 out of their last 8. I wonder what Cowboy fans will admit to if the Cowboys beat the Eagles, and the Bengals get the number 1 spot in the AFC? That would give the Cowboys wins over the 1 and 2 teams in the NFC and a win over the 1 in the AFC as well.

The issue is on the Cowboys side is to eliminate stupid mistakes IMO from both players AND coaching. The question that no one really has the answer for is what team is going to show up?

 

[baltcowboy]

yall think just anybody can beat Dallas

if they suited up the three stooges yall would be screaming theyre going to drop 50

Yeah we 10-4 and wrapped up a playoff spot with three weeks left. The Cowboys have not been this good since 2016. If you just read some of the threads we are 4-10.

 

[Whirlwin]

He's one of the best backups in the league, imo.

Yeah, thanks for the confidence. Lol.

Yep, and the Eagles are in a position to play basic packages and even run up plays and looks to work out responses. There's a train of thought that with nothing on this game we should do the same.

This game means nothing as a game and winning it means nothing, this game should be used to set up (a hopeful) 21st/22nd January.
