I think we have more than 6 wins this season if Cooper Rush starts week 1

I think we'd have one more loss, to Pittsburgh. Although he had two interceptions, Prescott had to play like a franchise QB for us to win that one against a very hot defense. Defense collapsed on us against the Saints and Lions, and we've scored over 27 points just once with Rush at QB (and that was this week against possibly the worst overall team we've faced). None of those games we played before Prescott's injury would we have won with fewer than 27 points, except against the Steelers, and again, that took a 352-yard effort from Prescott.
Good thing the Weak TB and Philly team escaped those clowns of a carolina team they are.

6-8 and not even I think we have a chance at playoffs. Technically not eliminated but it’s not happening. That aside, we could technically be in the hunt still if Cooper Rush started this season. I think with Cooper Rush under center, this team would be 8-6 right now. We definitely beat the Falcons with Rush under center and I think there’s a chance we beat 49ers too. It pisses me off to be 6-8 right now. This team should still be in the hunt and that should make this fanbase sick.
Wow! :facepalm: :laugh:

I think there’s a lot of people that would like to think that, but they would be wrong. This team was a mess coming out of preseason.

Any given Sunday, man. We lost 34-6 to Philadelphia, while Carolina lost to the Eagles only 22-16. That didn't make us worse than the Panthers.
Totally agree, division games , watchthe Eagles lose to the Giants lol

People actually, believe this. That’s the stunning thing. Cooper Rush, lol I will say he’s a top 10 back up. But that puts him like number 40 on the list.

I think if we started out blocking zone and calling plays that stuck with the run, we would be doing halfway decent.
There is no reason to keep Mike the helpless for another season.

I have to see him beat Philly or perform well against them before I even entertain this line of thought.

It doesn't matter honestly. The fact that we haven't really played that much worse with Rush under center as compared to the guy who was just made the highest paid player in NFL history shows just how terrible of a contract that was. I'll defend Jerry over a lot of things as I think he gets a lot of crap he doesn't deserve but there's no defending that.
Exactly!

Dak’s trash but so is Rush. He’s cheap trash tho, better than expensive trash. At the end of the day we’ll never win anything with any of the QBs currently on the team.
100%!
Rush is okay if his 1st and maybe 2nd read is open quickly , but if he has to hold the ball more than 2 seconds he is terrible. He has very little ability to move around in the pocket. He is slow and clumsy for an NFL QB.
