im serious why would we not run the wildcat all game with Lance...we have 1 WR who would be on the field and 1 TE..Turpin could come in to keep the safties deep on short yardage and you would probably get a couple of cracks at deep balls with him...I PROMISE i will not look worse than the offense we ran last week.
Our coaches panic too much in games, They see a 3 and out 1 time and all hell breaks loose on the sideline.

Except for CeeDee losing the ball in the sun, the Cowboys would have been leading at the end of the first half.
The Eagles got a turnover, but other than that Rush kept their offense forced to drive the length of the field to score.
It makes a difference, and our defense responded by holding the Eagles pretty well.
Rush did make the Cowboys a better team.
But, the momentum the Eagles gained at the end of the first half and beginning of the third quarter was too much to overcome with McCarthy continuing to be ultra conservative with the offense.
lol, wow. This truly made me laugh. I mean literally laugh. You have to be the only person that watched that game and reached this conclusion. One pass lost in the sun isn't an excuse for the entirety of his play. It's nonsensical to suggest it is.

In almost 3 quarters of play he only had 45 yards passing. He averaged 2 yards per passing attempt. His QBR was 16.4. A number of passes were so far off target the receiver never had even the slightest chance of getting a fingertip on the ball, and we were left looking to see if there was possibly another receiver he was throwing to only to find the throw was just that bad.

LOL.

Dak throws ball that isnt caught by WR - DAK IS A MASSIVE ISSUE
Rush throws a ball that actually travels more than 3 yards and isnt caught - He was ok.

They are both trash.

Only difference is we are now stuck with one of them.

Rush needs to retire. The team isnt there to carry him anymore. Defense isnt number 1 in takeaways, and sacks, and the offense dont even get me started.

You can’t believe any of this, he was putrid, yes MMs Texas toast O is poor at best but it’s been broken since day one, I can’t even imagine how CR can be on this roster when a supposed QB whisper see’s this guy everyday in practice. There’s a reason he was cut once and couldn’t even make a Giants PS with JG being the OC, he is what he is a less than a jag.

I am not anything close to being a Lance backer, but they need to play him at QB if they want to have a chance. At least Lance can run out of the pocket, and without an OL or running game, he is going to be running.

Trey was just as bad, let's be real...
true but out of the 2 Trey is the only thing that looks remotley dangerous at anything Rush looks like "Stop the run and stay within 10 yards of the LOS to intercept the Duck thats comming"
