Twitter: RGIII on the Cowboys return for Dak

[The Fonz]

Problem is Dak needs to throw well in order for the team to run well. . . This is the one common denominator. . . Dak

Event with just 1 game Cooper looked more confident in the pocket then Dak.

If Cooper Rush showed who they need to be then why not roll with Cooper Rush?

because fans ....and jerry want who they like the best !!! not who can win consistently !
And if they dont win with the guy they like, that is ok with them, because the guy they like is playing.

Rush may be more consistent than dak, in how he plays, and that means a lot, and nobody thinks about CONSISTENCY !
which guy do you want or will do the best for you, the consistent guy , or the guys that is inconsistent, one game plays lights out and the next game
plays awful!

Me I will take the consistent guy every time.

Well we obviously ran the ball much more this pass Sunday than we ran it the week before and in other games Dak started. I highly doubt Dak would audible out of running plays that were obviously working at 5 yards a pop.

Running the ball gives the offense balance and it keeps the defense guessing. That makes Dak's job that much easier. Why in the world would he want to take away the balance and make it harder on himself?? I doubt any quarterback would do that.

yeah but if kellen has dak, what is he more prone to do ?? Run or pass, history says he will pass more as soon as dak is back.

I don't know how to tell you this but......



Yes, our QB that is known for not being able to read an NFL defense at a high level is out here audibling out of almost half the run plays called "based on the look".

This is just 1 game example from last season because this type of info don't get out very often, but I'm going to say this probably happens a lot. Maybe his audible abilities should be taken away or at least limited severely?

 

[kskboys]

I mean most of the times we've gone to the playoffs it was based off a strong running game

then we have seasons where we wanna air it out and end up 8-8

Takes Jerry a dozen years or so to learn even the simplest of truths in the NFL.

 

[kskboys]

Because he's strictly a backup type and you're not going to win w/ him consistently.

Why did you feel you didn't know how to tell me that??? Its not like you broke some bad news to me or something. It just shows that Dak audibled out of a few running plays against arguably the best playing defense in the league right now in one game.....

Why would that be hard to discuss??? LOL!! Maybe he seen something he thought would work better for that play. The players still have to collectively execute, not just him by himself....

 

[MountaineerCowboy]

He looks better than Dak did at the beginning of 2016. Dak didn't even throw his first TD pass until Week 3 of 2016.

We went 13-3 that season.

The truth is we don't have enough sample size of Rush to know whether or not we can win consistently with him. All I know is that we're 2-0 when he starts. That's all we have.

Personally, I don't believe we have a single QB on the roster right now that we can be counted on to play well and carry the team for even 1 game if needed.

 

[Captain-Crash]

2-0 and 100% on the comebacks. That has to be a record. We like records and stats. Both of them have to be newly recorded stats.

He kinda will though......

I wouldn't mind this as much if Dak knew how to read a defense and was making the smart plays. Instead it will be a dumb play and then fans will complain that Moore won't call enough run plays to balance things out when it reality he does, but Dak is changing them.

There are alot of backups who can go 2-0 in this league when there's not a body of work to game plan them. Rush has played well and i love his aggressiveness.....

But just like Shannon Sharpe said yesterday, there's a reason why teams weren't trying to pluck Rush off of the practice squad or lining up to sign him. Rush is not a better quarterback than Dak.....

Those were the words of Shannon Sharpe...... not me.

The awakening. The coddling is over.

Skillset. Not hard to analyze and figure out that Rush will always be limited by his physical limitations. It's not about sample size, it's about what he's capable of.

We have a ton more than 2-0. That's analyzing for newbies stuff.

I could say there's a reason Dak fell all the way to the 4th round and was passed up by every single team multiple teams too. Things like that happen and doesn't mean much. Just win, baby.

Rush has been better in his first 2 career starts than Dak was in his first 2 career starts.

The point is the jury is still out on Rush. We don't know what he can be because he's never really had a long enough chance. Dak got his chance and took advantage of it, but to write off Rush when he's off to a better start than Dak was in 2016 seems to be agenda driven.

I think the same way about Dak as you do Rush.

That's why I feel the right QB for this team is not currently on this roster.

I have also come to that point.

In 2016, Dak lost to the Giants by 1 and beat WASH by 4. Their "starts" were quite similar.

However, this isn't Rush's "start", this is his backup time. Completely different matter.

I see what you're saying, but thats just one game. Did Moore say Dak did this his whole career???

And i said I "highly doubt" Dak would set himself up for failure by doing so. When he audibles, he expects each guy on offense to win their match-ups just like the guys on offense expect Dak to make the right play.

Unfortunately that hasn't always been the case for either of them at times.

But everytime an audible doesn't work, it doesn't mean its solely Dak's fault. Guys got to win their match-ups. The Bucs and the Bengals defenses are on 2 different levels. Im sure Moore would look good against that Bucs defense tho....

People don’t have tape of Rush, but he has been running the same offense that Dak has, as he’s been here 4 years. The game against the Vikings in his first start was no different. He had zero problems getting the ball to Amari and used Wilson over the middle, including a beautiful 70 yard strike. There is zero need for Moore to dumb down the offense.

Fact is, while he may be limited than Dak in one respect, Dak is limited compared to him in many other respects.

Who wrote off Rush??? I believe im on record on MANY posts stating i would love to see him stay in their until he proves he's not capable, even when Dak gets healthy.....

This is called agenda driven to support the next man up???? Reeeeeeaaaaching....
