*RAISES HAND*
Dak:
Top 10 QB entering the season (and certainly paid like one), or top 13 if you hate him, or below top 13 if you hate him and if you’ve had a lobotomy.
Played like crap in Week 1, then got hurt.
Rush:
How many backup QBs get 5 years on the same team and in the same system? Rush is living proof that hard work and continuity pays off.
I love his command of the offense and his willingness to throw deep if the matchup dictates it.
He’s fairly risk-averse and accurate enough.
He’s taken 2 total sacks in his 3 starts, and has ZERO TURNOVERS this season (to be fair, he might’ve gotten a tad lucky that his 2 INTs today were called back).
He plays the game as if it’s easy, or at least he’s making it look that way.
Don’t turn it over, don’t take sacks, take what the defense gives you, throw deep when it’s single coverage. Simple.
It helps having a defense and run game and when the penalties actually go our way for a change, but Rush is getting it done.
We have TWO QBs I believe in right now, and if we beat the Rams and Rush impresses again... Dak’s officially on notice. Play well or step aside!
Awesome problem to have. 3-1!
