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

[BlueStar22]

One of the dumbest fanbases in the NFL. The topics on this site never cease to amaze me. What does he do better than Cooper Rush? EVERY DAMN THING. Rush hasn't done anything special. He's like a substitute teacher who's only being asked not to let the kids burn down the classroom while the teacher is out. He's done that well.

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

He takes Jerry for more money.

I hope Cooper Rush NEVER loses a game!

I think to anyone who’s not just willfully ignorant, we all know Dak doesn’t have the brain for the position. Let alone attributes needed to win championships at any level.

That is possible. His ability to read D's has come in question.

 

[Strykerscm]

What do you mean he doesn't have the brain for the position?

He’s not smart enough to make complex decisions very quickly and then deliver with his physical tools. We know this because he’s not led us to anything but 6 forgetful seasons in a row.

I’ve accepted, like most, that he’s a late round pick that we hit on cheap and checks all the boxes that Jerry wanted.

Explain to me, with all of his successes, how he does have he brain and tools for the job.

It's freaking football, NOT rocket science. He would not have made it this far not being smart enough to make complete decisions quickly. WE'VE LITERALLY WATCHED HIM DO THIS IN HIS FIRST SIX SEASONS. What the hell do you people be talking about? YOU'VE SEEN HIM DO IT BEFORE. Now lie to me and yourself and say you haven't. A lot of you are the ones who aren't smart enough to understand the game.

 

[Section446]

Nothing, but that's not a surprise. I've been saying for years that Dak is average and could be easily replaced.

Please show me his success. I’ll wait…

Go back to last year. Yes, we lost in the playoffs. We didn't win the SB but tell me he hasn't had a successful career so far.

Dak does pretty much everything better but a few things.

It would be easier to list what Rush does better.

I think Rush is more decisive with his throws, Dak seems hesitant and holds the ball to long since his calf injury in the middle of the season last year.

Rush seems to be more poised in the pocket, Dak has seemed to panic more since his calf injury last year.

Rush seems to read the defenses better than Dak has in the non NFC East games.
Since his calf injury Dak has seemed to have trouble finding the correct open receiver.

I think Dak also needs to stop changing the play call ...... I have only seen Rush yell "Kill Kill Kill" twice and suddenly the OC doesn't seem so bad.

Participation trophy alert. No, last year was not successful. No member of the org would say getting whacked by the 9ers at home was a success.

Now is he successful? Absolutely. Was he in the right place at the right time with the right stupid owner and gm? Absolutely

 

[Mk2_Cowboys]

Desperately comparing stats of a QB that has 86 career games with one that has 3 career games....ouch.

That usually favors the player with a smaller sample size but good try .

 

[badazoth]

Dak is great at downfield concepts w/ his ability to read and react quickly and his superior accuracy.

What you just said with sarcasm right because everything you said is like the complete and total opposite of Dak Prescott I mean I hope you're sarcasm but you know maybe you should use it sarcasm a sarcasm tag okay thank you

Sarcasm,yes.Hence the laughing emoji.

Dak averages more points per game. Kinda important.

 

[acr731]

It's very apparent to everyone except his fan club...

Dak averages more points per game. Kinda important.

This is an extremely irrelevant stat. How many games has Dak played in to Coopers 3?
