Id rather take a middle of the pack avg rather than 30 points one game and 3 points in another.
Even when rush had three turnovers vs the eagles he managed 17 points, and its not like their D isnt too far off of 49ers.
Speaking of that, didnt dak drop40 on the eagles? Whats so different between the Eagles D and the 49ers D? Its not like we had success running against the eagles. Daks inconsistency is a killer
The 31 points is an average buddy. Meaning it was 21 one week 41 the next.

Niners D is better than the Eagles D.

Dak is no more inconsistent than any other 2nd tier QB.

Then how does he score 3 points one game, and 31 points the other, against the same team that wasnt a divisional rival?
Thats not inconsistency for you?
31 points against a decent TB defense, and then 12 points and 2 (almost 3) interceptions the next?
Both games our run game was gone

Fluke games. Cherry picking is how you do it.

How did Mahomes score 9 points in the SB against the Pats? It happens.

Niners D is just the best. Dak is not elite. Still better than 66% of the other QB's.

Going into the game, I felt Dak definitely gave Dallas the best chance to win.
Didn't feel the running game would be able to do much, so passing was gonna have to get it done. Of course, running the ball was greatly hindered by Pollard going down before half, but still would have been tough sledding.

Now knowing how the game went (Pollard injury and all) - do we win if Rush would have started?
Look how Philly made him look like Chad Hutchinson. What do you think the niners would've done to him

After we lost Pollard the game was over. That's when we really needed our QB. I don't think Rush could have won without Pollard but he definitely could have if Pollard was still in the game. And Dak sucked the whole game....

Boils down to the two INTs. If Rush came out and did not throw two INTs then we probably would have won. Dak was missing easy throws too. I think Rush might have hit a few of those.
