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

[NotForLong]

Well, Dak probably has a better looking girlfriend than Rush. Dak has a bigger house and a better bed to sleep on than Rush does. Dak makes more commercials than Rush does. Rush does not have half a football field in his backyard like Dak does. Dak gives out free shoes to his teammates, Rush does not do that. Dak can find his way to the First National Bank faster than Rush can. Dak dresses better than Rush on road trips. Dak proclaims he's "a big mo fo" and he is bigger than Rush. Dak has BBQ delivered to his house while Rush has to go out to Mickey D's to eat. I'm sure Dak does better at some more things than Rush, but as for football? I'm at a loss for words.

You forgot Dak's Dog is ride or die

 

[NotForLong]

So Dak played well and wasn’t the worst player on the field vs. Tampa.

The only time He wasn'T the worse player on the field was when He was injured

Yeah, I forgot that one, woof woof. Also, Dak has Tad to speak for his real truths about the team.

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

How can you possibly say that? Rush is putting the ball into their body when needed and out in front of them so they don't break stride. All around more catchable and better for the receiver to actually do something with it.

I mean, a better ball isn't even on the table for discussion of something Dak might do better.

He just does. I’ve seen better throws from Dak throughout his career. Rush can’t throw on the run. Doesn’t have a better deep ball.

 

[NotForLong]

He didn't pay well Jeez but there were reason and he want the worst player, nope the WRs , OL, and play caller far worse. Zeke was the best offensive player and Moore gave up on the run . different game, different situation, different level of competition....

dak had no support and looked horrible, and? i saw that game 1 by many top qbs and they all lost game 1..

Amazing those positions are getting praise now

He already has thrown on the run! Watch the freaking game, not just watch Dak. Oh, by the way, sorry Rush won the game, I know in that other post a day or so ago when someone said Rush would lose this game and you gave a "like". lmao. Anyway, sorry bout that.

 

[NotForLong]

Rush has defenses more off balance than Dak. Teams simply do not fear the ball in Dak's hand. They don't.

RUN

They are . . . and they look good

There are a lot of unknowns about Rush, no argument there. But I stand by my statement that Rush has shown better ball placement in the three games he has started.

 

[NotForLong]

If he fails then it’s just more concrete evidence for us to move on - this is is a situation to leave no stone unturned the team needs to be sure Dak fails before sticking with Rush IMHO

Absolutely . . . but it's gonna be so crinch to watch . . . Contrary to popular belief I don't hate Him . . . And tge way this is all coming to a head . . . I kind of pity Him

I am saying all this because I fully expect Him to be forced into the Lineup and I expect Him to once again Fail . . .

As you should because this is what the "Eye Test" tells you. . .

He gets the ball our really fast also. And that poster said he can't throw a deep ball. lmao. He hit CeeDee right in the hands downfield and he dropped it. But, Dak is his love, so he can do no wrong.

I was attempting to explain how it read from a 3rd party perspective. You recently asked about why we don't talk as much as we used to. This exchange is a good example. You're tossing words out like, "agenda," and telling me to, "let it go," when all I did was show how you, "literally," said you weren't talking about Rush when he quoted you talking about Rush. Wasn't a jab, just an attempt to validate a little, "confusion" and seek clarification.

You're getting to Roy levels of sensitivity here. Everything doesn't need to be a fight.

Steve trolls me on the regular. His agenda is to get anyone to agree with his Dak jabs. When I mentioned Cooper Rush has an advantage knowing the offense, he immediately suggests its over Prescott. It wasn't and it's not. I apologize I was confusing, because I could have just said Rush has chemistry with Brown because of snaps. Which has nothing to do with Prescott. I'm sick and tired of one vs the other crap. I cannot praise Rush for helping pull off a win unless I trash Prescott.
You want to talk about sensitivity? You got the wrong dude, just be thankful it's so censored here.

I guess that’s my stance. I have only seen him in 3 games as opposed to Dak.

[tromofan]

He has a better agent.

 

[NotForLong]

Not what I'm referring to. It's not about having a strong arm, it's about having a strong enough arm, a completely different matter. At some point, our O will need bullet outs to beat good D's. Cooper cannot throw them.

He has a beautiful deep ball, BTW. There's a lot I love about Cooper.

On a scale of 1-10 regarding arm strength, Montana and Brady both have a 6-7. Cooper has a 4.

His anticapation makes up for perceived lack of Arm Strength

I'm fine with someone saying his sample size isn't large enough to know, that's fair. But you can't just declare "he can't do something" he's had little to no attempts at (especially when one of those attempts was perfect and flat out dropped). That's the same mindset that led them to say Rush couldn't play in this league. Couldn't win some games. It's all based off flawed analysis of the player and projecting unfounded beliefs onto them.

 

[NotForLong]

Timing routes. That's almost all they ran. When the run game is working like it did, it forced the defense to set up front. Not every play, but I'll check the 22 and see how many. They didn't do as many curl routes. Also, had Lamb came down with a couple passes it's an entirely different offensive result.
Rush seems relaxed too. Huge plus.

 

[CWR]

As I quoted before in the Sturm article,




Moore gave him 28 RUN PASS options, he checked out of 12 of them.

So on what basis can you argue it’s Moore’s fault. It is you that claimed Moore isn’t calling run.

And teams were simply disguising coverages last year, for Dak. They would show multiple in the box and drop into zone and Dak would looked confused as hell, the implication being, he was most likely the problem. Dak is slow period,

I wouldn't argue on that basis. First off, going by the date it looks like that was the game vs Tampa last season.

That was far from a normal game script.

The question is how often does this happen? You're assuming because he audibled out of the run vs a team who had a dominant run defense, while he was simultaneously out playing Tom Brady, that he does that all the time.

Maybe he does, but if that's all you have we don't know that to be fact.

Secondly since it's rare to find this type of information I am forced to looked towards other indicators.

His relationship with Zeke for example. If he was constantly taking the ball out of Zekes hands I would not expect them not to be bffs.

The truth is we don't know. If it was happening though I would absolutely expect the coaches to correct it. ESPECIALLY after the offense fell apart last season.
