No hate on Dak, but what does he do better than Rush?

[Strykerscm]

Would love to hear what our fans think, logically.

Better pure passer? No
Better at reading defense? No
Better runner? Sure maybe
More decisive? No
More expensive? Yes

 

[MountaineerCowboy]

He's more hip and cool.

That's about it.

 

[CWR]

If we are really going to compare them, we need to see Cooper in a game where he has to throw it 40-50 times to keep up.

Can he? I love what he's doing, but we can't know that yet.

 

[sacase]

Dak has more experience. That's it!

 

[elcowboi]

Zeke called him Cooper Clutch. I'm all for it.

 

[Mannix]

Brian Broudaus was just asked that same question on 105.3 The Fan, and he got all tongue tied....he really didn't have an answer.

 

[DasTex]

Rush: Accurate, gets ball out quickly, decent to good deep ball, plays well under pressure

Dak: Sells more jerseys and sleeps on a sleepnumber bed. Also is great behind the mic.

 

[CATCH17]

They need to keep playing him. That’s all I know. Cooper Rush might actually get better.

Dak got the starting job without doing that...don't forget that.

You are literally trying to elevate a Jason Garrett over a Troy Aikman.

But isn't Dak doing that to himself by audibling out of runs?

Dak is no longer a better runner. That used to be his advantage. But he doesn't run anymore. Rush just runs this offense better than Dak. Takes his shots downfield and opens up the defense to make it easier to run. Defenses can't put 8 in the box.

How’d that playoff game turn out? Time to dump fantasy-madden #s and watch the game.

 

[Dallasfann]

Coop is much more calm. He is also much better at reading a defense. Dak has a little more zing on his throw but Coop throws a pretty deep ball. Dak is better but it's much closer then most realize. What am i saying I have no idea what Dak actually does better.

That’s what happens when you can’t read a defense.

Dak throws a better football. Better deep ball thrower for sure.

 

[DripTooHard]

Well he makes $40 mil per year

 

[PA Cowboy Fan]

Dak throws a better football. Better deep ball thrower for sure.

Not lately.

 

[Cowboysfandarin]

Rush only gets paid 800,000 for the season. Dak? $42, MILLION!!! Think about that for a second! Is Dak 42 times better? Really?
