Lamb has an ankle injury

[Staubacher]

sarcasm my friend. just know that anything bad happen, its Dak's fault. anything good its somebody else. including fans in row section 450, row 213 .

Boo hoo. Poor Dak

 

[Staubacher]

I'm thinking we went 4-1 without Dak. That's on record. We're not going 4-1 without Lamb under any circumstances. I don't think Dak sucks. But he's not the player that is going to make up for talent loss.

I guess what I'm saying is, I'm more confident with Rush and a healthy roster, than I am with Dak without Lamb.

100% confident CeeDee Lamb would never had signed his extension IF Cooper Rush was the starting QB...

No legit GM will give Cooper Rush a Healthy viable roster to waste away a season.

Lamb not playing would hurt more than if Dak didn't play. We're more likely to win if Dak was out over Lamb being out.

So you're saying the guy who threw for 4k yards last year and led the NFL in TD passes is not as good as Cooper Rush? BTW, Cooper Rush was waived two off seasons ago and no team picked him up which tells me how much the other teams think of Cooper Rush.

That was two years ago when our defense was playing great and we had a solid running game. Stop living in the past! We never gave up more than 17 points in those games we won with Cooper Rush. We won a game against the Rams on the road where he only had 100 yards passing. Our pass rush was on pace to break the 84 Bears sack record that year. You’re kidding yourself if you think we would be better off with him against the Ravens. That’s laughable!

I never said we'd be better off with him against the Ravens. I said we'd be better off with him and a healthy roster than with Dak and no Lamb. We're not beating the Ravens without Lamb, with or without Dak. You guys think Dak is some great QB, he isn't. He sucks without weapons. Look at what Derek Carr did to us with weapons. Is he some great QB? Take away his pieces and he looks like crap too.

Dak Cult get triggered easily. You are 100% right and PROVEN.

I do not think Rush is better than Dak. It's not really a competition. But the Cowboys would be lucky to win 2 of the next 4 games without Lamb. With or without Dak. So maybe Dak wins two and Rush wins 1?

Isn't what he said AT ALL.

I don't care what Dak threw against some of the worst teams in the league. He looked like absolute dog **** against Buffalo, the 49ers, ok against Miami. Well Rush looked like crap against Philly. How many games do you think we'd win without Lamb? We wouldn't make the playoffs.

I never said Rush was better than Dak. I said I liked Rush with a healthy team over Dak without Lamb. You guys keep ignoring that, and turning it into a Dak VS Rush post. It is not.

I need some context....does the Defense give up 17pts per game or TDs every drive till the 4th QTR?

He’s not going to be able to pinch hit and have success with this team unless our defense plays lights out and we have a solid running game. When we got by with him a couple of years ago, it was because our defense was playing great and we ran the ball well. We never gave up more than 17 points in the games we won with him. We beat the Rams on the road and he only passed for 100 yards. If we didn’t have Dak for the Ravens and had to go with Cooper Rush we would almost certainly get destroyed. No way do we win a game against Lamar Jackson with Henry in the backfield with Cooper Rush as our QB. This is not the Cowboys team he pinch hit with a couple years ago. We have a much better chance of winning on Sunday without CeeDee than Dak. You can’t compare losing your starting QB with a receiver. We may have to score 30+ to beat the Ravens on Sunday if our defense can’t hold up and we couldn’t do that without Dak.

They’re not scoring 30 with Dak and no CeeDee, or no Dak with CeeDee. They scored 26 against Cleveland (absent the Turpin return) with both and 19 against the Saints with both.

Certainly the defense was a major factor a couple of years ago. But so was a change in how they approached the game management and the players rallied, if you will, around Rush knowing they were short-handed.

Make no mistake, I’m not of the mindset that they’d be just as good with Rush as Dak over a whole season. They wouldn’t be a playoff team, probably not even .500. But for just 1 game, they’d have a better chance with no Dak vs. no CeeDee, albeit not a good chance either way.

 

[Ranching]

Maybe theyre just being extremely cautious. Why would a 25 year old, who missed all of training camp need a vet day

They have to disclose every injury, no matter how small. Even those that never played, need to rest their thumbs, once un a while. Lol

 

[zrinkill]

Ohhhhh, that must be why they only can score 1 TD.

You act as if we always score over 17. We scored 10 points against the Bills and 49ers last year. 9 points against the Chiefs the year before. We wouldn't have scored 20 had the Packers not had a ridiculous lead. We would have been shut out against the Broncos the last time we played them had they not changed to a 3 deep zone up 31-0. What Context do you need? If Lamb is out for the next 4 weeks, just a hypothetical, we might win 1 game, against the Giants. This is with Dak at QB. He's not that good.

Disagree. While Lamb is literally our only playmaker on offense, the drop-off from Dak to Cooper Rush is significant. If Dak gets injured, the season is over. But the season might already be over since we can't stop the run on defense.

We still put 33 on Cleveland. Our offense has gotten off to a slow start, but it should get better as the season goes on. The defense is what it is. We’ll have some real good defensive games and some real bad ones. That’s what we saw last season and I doubt it will change. We continue to struggle against the run and that’s been going on for years. You’re not making any sense. You’re saying we wouldn’t be as good over a whole season with Rush as we would with Dak. You’re saying we wouldn’t be a playoff team with Rush and probably not even a 500 team. But you’re saying for one game we would have a better chance with no Dak versus no CeeDee. With no Dak, we would be stuck with Cooper Rush.

If we’re going to be stuck with no Dak, this isn’t the game. Certainly not against Baltimore and the number one offense. We’re going have to score some points on them and because of our lack of a running game, those points are going to have to come through the air. Rush isn’t going to farewell against the leagues reigning MVP. CeeDee never had a 100 yard game in the 5 games Cooper Rush was our starter in 2022. Receivers don’t make QBs, QBs make receivers. When Dak returned to the lineup in 2022, CeeDee had five 100 yard games.

We're not beating the Ravens without Lamb, with or without Dak. You guys think Dak is some great QB, he isn't. He sucks without weapons. Look at what Derek Carr did to us with weapons. Is he some great QB? Take away his pieces and he looks like crap too.

You’re not making an ounce of sense. You’re claiming CeeDe is more valuable to this team than Dak which is ridiculous. Everything we do on offense revolves around Dak because we struggle to run the ball. It’s not that anyone thinks Dak is a “great” QB. It’s fans like you who think he’s no good. We have no chance to beat the Ravens without Dak but we could still beat them without CeeDee if our defense would play worth a damn. We have no chance to beat them with Dak and CeeDee if our defense plays like garbage like it did last week. Dak was having a successful career before CeeDee ever arrived. He spent his first four years without CeeDee. All QBs need some weapons.

You’re one of those fans that doesn’t like Dak. You think he’s an average QB at best and you’re wrong! It’s a waste of time arguing with fans like you. I wouldn’t be surprised if you would rather have Cooper Rush as our starter. If you’re that against Dak, you’re one of those fans they should find another team to support with a QB you like better. There’s one fan who says they’re moving over to the Texans because they love CJ Stroud. Maybe you and a few others who hate Dak should consider that.
