If the Cowboys lose to the Vikings and Giants, that should be enough

The team plays harder for Rush and he rewards the team by converting 3rd downs and handing the ball off. He is more a working part of the team instead of someone trying to be a superstar that isn't.

The defense is the one who rewarded the team during the 4-1 run with Cooper Rush. Again the notion that the offense was more productive and efficient with Cooper Rush is a false one, since they were ranked near the bottom of the NFL during the time he was playing as the QB. He wasn't working more as part of the team, when he was leading the offense to going long stretches of the game not scoring, like what happened in the 2nd half against the Bengals until the last seconds.

The narrative of Dak trying to be a "Super Star." Is only in the minds of those who have a constant negative opinion about him.

The Cowboy ran the ball better and Rush converted those short timing throws for 3rd down. And yes Dak thinks he is irreplaceable and he is completely wrong. He isnt even a leader because true leaders lead by example and take responsibility even when it's not their fault.

An honest question and I expectorate that you will answer honestly.

What has Dak brought to us?
What?

Dak is better option than anything we have right now. Anything we have right now is not worth building towards anything.

In off-season we have decisions to make about QB position and future of the team.

Are you telling me Rush is a better option right now than Dak which was OPs original premise

So it's Dak's fault, the defense gives up 200 on the ground??? So where we play Dak at to help in the run game??? DT, DE, or LB????

And while we're at it, name me ONE other quarterback in NFL history that you have, or have seen blamed for a defense's inability to stop other teams from running all over them.

Did you really ask this?
There have been plenty of quarterbacks who took heat because they left the defense on the field too long.
Why do you think "Time of possession" is a stat?
But you know this. You don't want to admit it.

We’ll go 1-1 in those games I’m fairly certain. Dak will do just enough to keep Jerry dreaming of his investment coming good.

1-1 is not good , we cant fall much behind to Gints, need to keep pace and sweeping them is important

If you look at just record alone, 4 of their 8 remaining games are against better teams - Vikings, Giants, Eagles, Titans. So the most likely outcome is they finish 10-7. That’s probably enough to make the playoffs. There’sa chance they could perform above or below expectations. At best they’re 12-5 contenders, and at worst they’re 8-9 watching the playoffs from home. TL;DR even if they lose the next two games, they’re still most likely to finish 10-7 and make the playoffs.

If the Cowboys once again see their season going down the tube, they should finally make a change at quarterback. Last year it was one game vs Arizona that let the air out of the team, as Kyler Murray came in to Dallas and outplayed Dak so bad that there was no longer the belief that the Cowboys would excel in the playoffs. I think most of the players felt they never had a chance against San Francisco after the way Arizona pounded them.
This year there have been warning signs since week one. Had Cooper Rush not came in and led the Cowboys to a 4-1 record, they might be 4-5 or worse at this point.
With this season on the brink of yet another crash and burn, Jerry will surely see he has nothing to lose. The Cowboys have repeatedly shed every player but the quarterback trying to find a way to win.
Maybe it's time to listen to those who recognize the issue is Dak.

There will be no change at QB unless or until the Cowboys bring in a legit veteran backup or drafts another young guy with talent. They will NEVER bench Dak for Rush…..it won’t even be considered by anyone but a few silly fans who see that we won some low scoring games when our defense was terrorizing opponents.

Why would you think that they would lose? They have been one of the best teams in league over a 2 year period at 18 and 8. That is the best in the NFC and 2nd in the league only behind the Chiefs.

Ok, you are desperately trying to change the argument. Are we evaluating the past? Or present?

The premise was that we should right now move on from Dak to Rush....let's say Dak sucks, based on your argument. Is Rush better? What will we gain NOW at this moment moving from Dak to Rush? Right now who is the better QB?

After the season is when you move on. Not when you are 6-3......

Again, let's agree Dak sucks for the sake of your argument. Fact is Rush sucks more. Are you saying *** Dak let's go to Rush.... and gain what? Get worse offensively? Getting worse offensively is better in your view? Is Rush the future?

I don't give a shirt about past 7 years at this moment in the middle of the season....This team has under achieved in past 7 years. But the better player than Dak doesn't exist on this team now.

What has Dak brought us in 7 years, with a $40-mil price tag and yearly hyped reports from Jerry?

Ok, let's go with that argument.

Isnrush better than Dak right now? Is Rush the future? Will rush playing right now make this team better?

You keep digging for an answer to.an argument that's totally irrelevant to.where we are now

So stop avoiding. Answer the question. Dak sucks. Dak has t done anything in 7 years. . Right now at 6-3, what's the best option moving forward?
