I know some say dont get carried away and its just preseason. Well it is just preseason for the other rookies and he has out played them including vets around the league. That to me is worth nothing, its preseason for everyone not just rush.

I want to see Rush against ones - not against third string. Didn't Mitch just get that chance today and succeed? Kizer also got a chance, and I think he did better than his stats indicate. I've actually liked most of the rookies I've watched - they are exceeding my expectations. Seems to be a decent QB class and we could have two straight years with the upcoming class with a lot of franchise QBs.

Sure, but many of these vets go up against starting vets - and some of the rookies went up against first stringers. There is a significant difference. That's not me taking anything away from Rush, I think he's looked really good. He can only play against who they put out on the field, and he's done what needs to be done. Kudos, but there does need to be perspective.

Even when discussing rookie QBs going up against ones in the preseason should be kept in perspective.

Rush >>> Dak... won't be long

I can already hear the lady on 'First Take' voice if Rush has a good performance Thursday.

With graphics of Dak's last yrs pre season stats vs Rush's this yr(her and dumb fans will totally ignore that Dak played in 3 PS games and Rush has played in 155(5, I know):

Stephen A, you think Cowboys have a QB controversy and should Rush get the start over Dak?

Stephen A: Cowboys are always looking to create headlines! As if it's the Cowboys fault that you're doing a segment on our undrafted, backup QB. Total sensationalism

Unfortunately, our 'fans and local Mediots help drive the national false narrative

Surprise: Because of Trubisky, the Bears will win the NFC North

If they had Rush, they would be undefeated SB champions. Got to take what you can get I guess!

Cooper Rush is outplaying all the rookie QBs including Trubinsky.

Trubinksy is very mobile and has a strong arm. But lacks touch and finesse. He's not a bad player. Just needs pocket presence like Cooper Rush.

It seems all the rookie QBs this year have great rifle arms and are mobile. Just that they all lack touch. Even Trubiinsky.

Tier 2 school players get undervalued. He was also a 4 year starter and is a very intelligent person. I was very happy when we signed him but had no idea he would be where he is now.

I've already said it and I know it will irritate many fans but Dak had better not hit the wall some think he will or he will not receive a second contract from this team... and Rush will be the starter in a couple of seasons. This could also be a huge salary cap move.

Can you imagine if we had 2 starting caliber QB's? It presents a lot of opportunities potentially. Trading one, saving money by signing one cheaper, insurance for one regressing.
But I guess this may be how Washington felt with RG3 and Kirk and we know how that turned out.

It's all premature but fun to think about.

If Dak fails and regresses this season, I would not be opposed going into the draft and snatching up a QB in what is looking like one of the better QB draft classes we've seen in a while.

Give me accuracy over a cannon any day. Rush has plenty arm.

If I choose Rush do I also get the top-15 pick I didn't have to spend on him?

It may have been you but I remember someone suggesting drafting a QB every year. I think this is a genius philosophy
