Video: Phil Simms says there isn't a huge drop-off between Rush and Prescott

[shabazz]

I respectfully disagree. A 1 career start qb compared to a 7 year veteran is a huge drop off in many aspects

and I don’t have to impugn Phill Simms to disagree with him

 

[shabazz]

I have a feeling Rush is going to play outstanding football tomorrow or look like Brandon Weeden. My money is on Brandon weeden

logic says you could be right

The 1 game that Rush did start, the rest of the team played lights out to compensate for his inexperience. I believe that even special teams may have scored a td in that game vs the Vikings?

bottom line is that he has to throw very high percentage passes and without success at rushing the ball, he’s gonna be in for a long day

defense and special teams are gonna have to have a big day

We can all agree Dak was awful his last two starts and I am concerned. I have noticed he can’t make certain throws and defenses are giving him those passes. Dak also is a limited runner. I think he throws the ball better then he runs. He appears to have regressed as a passer.

So, from what you said Dak has regressed as a passer and runner. I know injuries play a part in all this amongst other factors, but has Dak peaked already...are we witnessing his regression as a QB overall???

This should've been the gameplan with a healthy Dak.

 

[MountaineerCowboy]

I believe the offense will be ran better with Rush than Dak.

I believe Rush can better read a defense and the offense will be more run focused as Moore wants Dak to be Mahomes.

Fill is full of it.

2019 was not the McCarthy era. Please check your facts before trying to down play MM.

Wasn't downplaying MM. Simply calling out a misleading statistic.

 

[stinkface]

Dak's QB rating was like 46 against TB. Yep, under Phils logic Rush could have a rating of 40 and be just under Dak as far a drop off is concerned.

 

[NotForLong]

*those two stats are when Dak doesn’t play vs when he does.

You need to stick to playing dress up like a 5 year old

Your "stat" is unfair

Will do!!!

Uhhh. Actually, what are you talking about? Seems like a strangely specific request.

 

[Brooksey]

Cooper Rush could be the spark we've been looking for.
Dak is holding this team back since the calf injury mid-season last year,

He's terrible

Dak isn't regressing. Dak and the Cowboys have trouble against better opponents. But I did expect better for a week 1 game. We're missing some major pieces on offense and it showed.

 

[Ranching]

Dak can be really good, but he isn't "special " .....I just don't like crapping on players or coaches, because I know how hard they work. I hope Rush steps up and does a great job....next man up!

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

Well if he’s talking about the Dak that played on Sunday then yeah. If he’s talking about the Dak with a bum hand right now? Ok. But that’s where it stops. Not even Dak’s biggest hater would agree with this statement.

 

[America's Cowboy]

AC don’t take this as a negative look at it as a blessing, Dallas has 2 top 10 QBs and folks say Jerry isn’t a genius.

Touché!

I don’t know if he’s special or not but I do know throughout his career he’s had some special moments. Including last year against the Pats.

You’re right lol.

He's played very well....too bad that many don't appreciate him

TB 3 points (Dallas losing 19-3 to start the 4th quarter)
SF 17 points (Dallas losing 23-7 to start the 4th quarter)
LV 33 points (Dallas losing 27-19 to start the 4th quarter)
ARI 22 points (Dallas losing 22-7 to start the 4th quarter)
KC 9 points (Dallas losing 19-6 to start the 4th quarter)


Dak in those games: 121 of 200 60.5% Comp % 1,205 yards 6 td's 4 int's


The Dak led offense was behind by an average of 13.6 points to start the 4th quarter in those 5 games referenced. This has become a trend with Dak where he does nothing for 3 quarters before starting to rack up stats and make games closer than what they really were/are.

Uhhh, it's not only Dak. It's the whole Offense. Why? BECAUSE OF THE OLINE.

Fix the Oline, and we will see Dak, Zeke and everyone else on Offense play much better.

I think Dak is who he is. An average quarterback that won’t get any better because he is a limited passer. The Cowboys paid an average quarterback franchise money. Big mistake.
