If it wasn't for our Defense, Rush would suck

[Pass2Run]

It's funny.

Cooper Rush has been sticking to the game plan. That's all he has to do, and he's doing it.

He wouldn't suck, if he's winning. Because winning is the only stat that matters.

Replace Cooper Rush in your statement and substitute Dak Prescott and you have the same thing.

My response was to those who are saying how Dak is being overhyped, while comparing Cooper Rush to Kurt Warner and Tom Brady. Or having no qualms with giving Cooper Rush all or most of the credit for the Cowboys 3 wins this season.

Just like the ones who are giving Cooper Rush lots of praise for the same types of games that Dak had in his rookie season that they were discrediting him on or saying things like how the team was winning despite him. Now with Cooper Rush it's "He's doing enough to with the offense to help the team win." Yet I remember those who complained about Dak not throwing for over 200 yards while he was in his first year and on his rookie contract.

 

[CowboysFaninHouston]

I wish those that support Dak would come to a decision if wins/losses are a QB stat or a team stat.

As for your bio, thanks but I'm not one of those types of members.

Regarding pass attempts, there has been proof that Dak would call out of running plays to change to passing plays so it's clearly possible.

believe me, I wish Dak haters like you would do the same...given you often have said Dak lost games and specially when he won, it was the team.

but I can understand you having memory problems.

 

[Romo_To_Dez]

You say "Dak haters" as if this place was pro-Dak just a few seasons ago. They are "haters" now because they simply left the honeymoon stage and have seen what a few of the original "haters" saw halfway through his rookie season.

You're still trying to catch up.

This board was always filled with harsh Dak critics, to act like it was all Pro-Dak here all of the time isn't true.

Well take @USArmyVet 's compromise...... "Dak is a better QB than Rush but that neither will guide this team to a Super Bowl",

Well keep that same energy when Dak comes back. For your info Dak is 53-32 as a starter and the offense has averaged over 27 ppg. So....who's keeps the offense gelling? Just keep that same energy when Dak comes back... GO COWBOYS!!

Toad Hunter has a decent record against TOADS in the league, not against average teams he doesn't! The best way to identify Toadie's record is to think of a desert mirage, because his win total to Cowboy Fans makes it look like he's own decent teams in the league and he really HASN'T! The Toad Hunter struggles bigtime when he plays in meaningful games and that's ashame because of the mega bucks he's stealing from the Cowboys!

Well Dak has the chance to step up and silence the critics, Rush the Baptist has trailblazed the way. Ill accept that possible play-calling and injuries to him and Offense are viable reason's for him/us not achieving success (unless you count pts scored and wins vrs lesser teams as success), but most of these issues appear to have have been overcome and with the Defense being able to carry this team then all eyes are on Dak as it's now time to get results.

If he does happy days.

The board had a few of Dak critics (I was the absolute first on this board to point out his flaws) - there are people RIGHT NOW who are "dak haters" who used to name call me who didn't hop on board until late into the 2016 season.

Don't revise history. I went through the BS and was labeled disgusting crap for you to just come in and pretend this place has always been plagued with what you are saying. Dak gained haters when his play was so poor it was too tough to excuse.

But I think he is/was supposed to change plays. Not sure what you meant about my bio. I just meant I’m old.

I’m a cowboys supporter and I find the Dak criticism as bad or worse than the Romo hate. Which I hated as well.


Either way thanks for your service and I’m not going to argue with you because you deserve respect unlike some others.

Sorry about the ex-wives joke if you remember. If you forgot. Forget I said anything.

There was more than a few Dak critics. There were those who at least as far back as the 2017 season, would make threads against strongly criticizing Dak, every time the Cowboys lost a game with him as the QB. And as I said, there were those in the beginning who are negative towards Dak, even in games were the Cowboys won, but Dak didn't light it up as far as stats goes, but did at least manage the game enough to win.

Now some of those same Dak critics are saying that it shouldn't matter how many points the offense produces or what types of stats the QB has, as long the QB makes the throws that he needs to make for the team to win. Some have been resentful towards Dak or negative about him since 2016-2017 and this is a fact. Now some are attempting to have revisionist history and pretend like the negativity towards him only started more recently or when he signed his big contract.

No worries as it's all good and I feel you regarding getting old.

...there were a few Dak critics in 2016. I know, because I was part of that small group surrounded by mouth breathers who were running around saying the only reason we didn't like Dak was 1. Because he wasn't Romo 2. Because he is half black. I know the crap said to me and there were very few people backing me up, including mods. You Dak stans had the run of the place for a while and then the end of 2016 happened and then Dak stunk up the joint in 2017 and he gained more "haters".

Play this crap with me, boy. There are few members on here who can attest to what I am saying. To now for you to whine like a child because a 7 year QB hasn't lived up to the expectations you stans created for him in 2016 is hilarious.

Saying that there were a "few Dak critics" isn't true. No matter how much you want to rewrite the history of how things played out on this board. The ones who are trying to revise history as you call it, are those who are trying to claim that the Dak criticism is only because he got paid a big contact or only happened more recently. There were always those who were negative on Dak and never support or believe in him. whom some are trying to claim only stopped supporting him more recently.

And you saying that people turned on Dak in 2017, only proves the point against anyone trying to claim that the expectations of Dak only claim with his contact or within the last couple of seasons.

Bruh, you can try to revise history. It's not going to work. You're just flat out wrong here, no amount of you trying to go on an endless back and forth with me won't change that. You were wrong, you won't admit it, so there is nothing else to say here.

Added to the ignore list for the inability to admit when you're wrong.

 

[3rdEyewarrior]

to some of you. Rush is playing well, but with our defense allowing just 1 TD a game, it makes things easier for Rush and I'm glad of it. He had a few bad throws....two ints called back because of penalties. But, he's driving the bus. The offense is not on fire and if it wasn't for our defense the Rush love wouldn't be like it is. But I'm happy we have him for a backup.

If it was t for the patriots defense we, Brady would’ve sucked from01-02.

You should be ashamed you're not able to understand what’s being discussed. So I’ll explain.

When Dak had Rush’s stats (comparable stats)he was on his rookie contract. Other than one or two games since and right before he got his contract he has had much better stats. He was leading the league in passing at one point I believe. He’s criticized when he has great stats too. I’m sure you’re aware of that.

The point is people are inconsistent in praise and critique—and it’s funny because he plays for “their” favorite team.

To sum up: when Dak had bus driver stats he was on his rookie contras very comparable to Rush’s contract now.

Do you understand?

When he was on his rookie contract,the only ones worried about stats were the dak fanatics,even in losses..the rest of us Cowboys fans just wanted wins..he could have thrown for 150 and if we won, nobody would care..but,when someone got hurt,it affects him, before amari he stunk,if everything is not perfect he stinks, remember the tb game?now with Rush, nothing been perfect either,but we've still found a way to win...that's the difference...

All this doesn’t matter to the Daksters. They just want him as the starting QB. Wins mean nothing. They are Prescott fans not Cowboy fans.

keep making more excuses as to why Dakota is mediocre
