I kinda hope Rush Starts

[Ranching]

It will give Dak time to get healthy, it will allow us to see what he can do....if he fails, maybe we pull off a trade for a backup......We are 3 games ahead with a favorable schedule coming up.....
Ideally, I want Dak 100% but this may be a good time to see what we got and what we need....Salud!

 

[mrmojo]

I tend to agree..I'd rather have Dak fully 100 percent for the 2nd half of the year, we don't want this injury lingering especially if it's re-aggravated. But I guess we will see.......

 

[Runwildboys]

It's a valid point, but I'd prefer to have a healthy Dak and keep this train rolling. Just having a sub par QB throwing to these guys might disrupt the rhythm of the team.

If you had the reins who would you trade for? Another poster said there's 3 QBs that could get the job done. Foles, Newton and Flacco. Foles is a "maybe" out of those 3. Newton is not a locker-room type guy and Flacco is old and outdated. Let's hope we don't have to trade any of our picks because with all the FAs this year we need picks to replace the ones we can't afford to sign.

Salud, Amigo!

Playing for the #4 seed of doom is loser's mentality. I'd much prefer to miss the playoffs altogether and to move on from football season to money-making season in January than to get there again only just to have our dreams crushed again, no thank you.

I've never seen a group so comfortable just giving up a game mid ways through the season because you think we're just going to waltz into the playoffs and everything is wrapped up already in just Week 8.

I would sign Cam.....don't have to give anything up for him...

 

[Ranched]

No! Greedy at this end. Like Dak says, he's ready to play. He's the ONLY one who knows his own body.

Want the Cowboys to be so far ahead in the division that they clinch very early. It is then when they can rest our 2021 MVP!

I wouldn't go and sign anyone at this point unless we are worried about a future injury. First you have to get the guy under contract and get him here. Then he has to learn the offense which is going to take at least the game after this one to get even some of it down. By then, if this really is just a calf strain Dak should be back. So again, unless we are looking at future injuries, no reason to sign anyone at this point in the season.

Wait, so playing for the #4 seed is loser mentality, but preferring to lose completely is..........what?

Good point, but seeing what Rush can do would go a long way in making an informed decision.

You are so scared of other teams, especially Green Bay.

 

[Runwildboys]

I would sign Cam.....don't have to give anything up for him...

And he has similar running capability to Dak.

 

[MountaineerCowboy]

What kind of experience do you have in coaching or management of a football team? Refresh my memory....

Here we go, let's hear about your high school coaching days.....

Rush isnt great, but we'll still win with him.

 

[Zman5]

If Rush starts and stars to do a Dinnucci impressions, I want to see them put in Grier. If we are going to lose the game, I'd like to see what he can do. We know what we got with Rush already, we need to know what Grier can do in a real game with the starters. If he sucks too, then we need to start looking for another backup before it's too late.

 

[Ranching]

And he has similar running capability to Dak.

Plus he played Jr. College ball in Texas, so I know he's well coached. I've always liked Cam...he'd be a great addition

I'm scared of Green Bay if it's at Green Bay. I'm not scared of them at home, even though we're 0-3 at home against them with Dak... the home field advantage ambiance has improved big time this year and we finally have a defense that feeds off the home crowd and plays well at home.

if it's in North east Wisconsin in mid-late January... Dak's southern blooded arm will freeze off by the 8 minute mark of the first quarter and he'll have to be rushed to the hospital to avoid hypothermic amputation. No thank you.

 

[Praxit]

...best case he plays for half, try to get Dallas in sweet spot. Then rest 2nd half or 4th qtr. Could be big game, with bye playoff pre cautions.

Nonetheless, its a tuffy.

Here we go, let's high about your high school coaching days.....

I've shared my qualifications, what are yours? Madden? I'd really like to know what backs up your opinions.....I respect most of them, but some are a bit off the wall and I'd like to know what backs them up....no disrespect, just wondering..
