I'm sorry but Cooper Rush isn't good

[Brooksey]

I'd rather watch Trey Lance run and try to throw then watch Cooper Rush

 

[DIAF]

Yet, he's giving us what Dak gave us before the injury for a lot less cap space.

Not even close. I posted some stats and analysis about this very thing several days ago, and everyone ignored it (as predicted). Cooper Rush has been objectively worse in nearly every reasonable advanced passing metric you can think of. Basically, he's getting the ball out quicker but throwing way shorter routes and the The two main differences between Rush at QB and Dak at QB are Offensive Line play and the Defense, both of which have been better the last month due to new players on the OL and return of key starters on Defense. Rush's Expected vs Actual completion % is abysmal, one of the worst in the league. Dak for all his faults this year and with a worse OL in front of him was at least still in the positive.

For the money , he is amazing .

Dont forget .., his salary is 2.25 Mill


not A CATASTROPHIC 60 MILL PER SEASON , ending our CAP DREAMS

congratulations. you win the spreadsheet financial wars....

I think they were pretty horrified watching him in the pre-season against mostly 3rd stringers. Couldn't hit the side of a barn throwing the ball most of the time. We need 3 new QB's!

 

[CowboysFaninHouston]

Dak isn’t the answer either.

You saw a franchise QB up close last night in Burrow. Dak isn’t in that class.

if only we had the #1 overall pick and a can't miss prospect was coming out of college.
our luck its Turbiskey type QB and not Burrows type...

 

[G2]

So he didn't have some nice throws?

Did i object to statistics?

What is it you wanna fight about TODAY?

You're too sensitive. His completion percentage was hot garbage. He underthrew multiple times. He can't pass accurately 15+ yards deep. The last play of the game he failed miserably to see a wide open Lamb right in front of him, instead he throws another duck.
But yeah, go ahead and point out nice throws you can't even identify.

That's a little dramatic and not true

Lance sucks. It's obvious and why they are refusing to play him.

 

[CowboysFaninHouston]

He isn’t, but it’s funny how he has kept the team in the position of winning in most of the games he’s played.

But now it’s time to see what Lance has got.

against 4-8 and 2-8 teams...yes....as long as we play those type of teams. we have a chance with rush as long as the defense and special teams do their part.

 

[CowboysFaninHouston]

Rush > Dak

 

[GINeric]

Rush is miles better than Dak, but that isn't hard to do.

Dak has been in the league for 9 seasons. Rush has been in the league for 8 seasons.

Dak has been a perennial top 10 quarterback his whole career, broke team records, became an All-Pro and MVP candidate. Rush has bounced off and on practice squads, been a third string and finally graduated up to 2nd string his whole career.

Now with that said.... either 31 other coaches and GMs are blind and have very low football IQs for not signing Rush.... or you are blind and have a low football IQ for believing Rush is better than a top 10 starting quarterback.

Which one is it? I'll let you answer that.

Same, at least he's more athletic and would be fun to watch.

 

[CowboysFaninHouston]

you are a bitter idiot!

 

[Mr_437]

You have to be football dumb if you expect an UDFA, career backup QB, to all of a sudden be starter quality. Y'all beating the $**& out of this dead horse.

 

[Romo_To_Dez]

Oh I know people are sick of Dak. But no one thinks Rush is better lol. That only ones saying that dislike Dak for things outside of football. Rush stinks. His punt throws just rob him of being consistent.

Fans can question whether or not Dak is the answer. While still being objective and unbias enough to know that Rush would have been offered a starting job for another team, if he at any point actually showed the ability to be better than a QB who at his peak and best had the Cowboys offense producing numbers at a top 5 rate in the NFL. One can downplay it and say they came against bad teams. Yet we saw the Cowboys offense with Rush struggle to score 20 points against an awful Bengals defense.

And the same ones who are downplaying what Dak's stats in his best seasons by saying they he did it against bad teams. Are willing to praise Rush for getting wins against bad teams, where the Cowboys offense still is at the bottom of the NFL and needs the defense/special teams to score TDs even for the Cowboys to won some of the Rush led games.

The only ones who believe in Rush being "miles better" than Dak are either the extreme Dak or the ones who have grown super attached to Cooper Rush for some reason.

 

[CowboysFaninHouston]

I'm not the only one saying it.
All over social media fans are sick of Dak's choking versus good teams.

you and pappy in the corner, picking your nose and snickering at your own jokes..

the two of you make a crowd..

you are a bitter loser.....in life. and if you changed your attitude your life might have turned out to be better

 

[Stash]

The guy simply doesn’t have NFL-level talent.

 

[Legend]

At least the Cowboys play like they have a chance to win games with Cooper Rush as the QB.

With Dak; the Cowboys and Dak tend to check out of games early when it is apparent the games will be an uphill battle to win.

 

[CowboysFaninHouston]

Yet the one win the Cowboys had a couple a weeks ago over the cellar dweller Giants seemed to mean so much to you, that you claimed that win and the win over the Commanders was better than anything the Cowboys had done in the last 17 years. Including the seasons where the team won 12 or more games and made the playoffs.

Nothing Cooper Rush has done has convinced any other NFL team that he is a QB who can lead them to Championships. Yet you continue to build him up.

wait what...the idiot said that win against commanders was the best win in the last 17 years!!! how stupid...truly stupid statement

 

[Brooksey]

Lance sucks. It's obvious and why they are refusing to play him.

Yes Lance sucks.

So did Baker Mayfield, Sam Darnold and Geno smith, etc. They all sucked.
Lance is a baby, he's 23 years old with elite athleticism.

He's need reps, we'll see him soon enough.
