Rush wasn't doing as bad as some think

[kskboys]

Dak looks like a 50 year old man running and Rush looks like a 50 year old man throwing.

I do not think Trey Lance is the answer either but at least Trey can throw the ball at NFL speed and he can move and run faster than the two old guys.

Great stuff!!! If I had the power, I'd give you a thousand likes for this!!!!!!

 

[Whirlwin]

I am not doing it for the likes.
If I did that I'd be like you.
The truth is what it is, and Rush- even though he had a terrible game- kept the Cowboys close early and didn't overwork the defense.
I think they could have won if McCarthy hadn't been so tentative with his play calling.

The really sad thing about all this. You believe it. Cooper Rush sucked. I don’t care even if CeeDee Lamb caught the ball.

You've lost a lot of credibility today.

wait. what!@? he had credibility? when did that happen?

he started with negative credibility, he is just sinking deeper. its like quick sand

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.

It was the running game, that moved the ball. Rush played poorly and played worse as we abandonded the running game.

you know the game is 4 quarters? not just one quarter? being close in first quarter is meaningless. you know that? right? do you? do you? really. do you?

 

[Tabascocat]

That part was bad.
But he didn't give the Eagles any momentum changing interceptions.
You can say what you want, but the Cowboys had a chance to win that game.
So it wasn't all bad.

Momentum changing fumbles don’t count?

momentum changing interceptions!!! but fumbles lost is not momentum changing....LOL 3 and out is not momentum changing? 4 passes of 0 or negative yards is not momentum changing?
how do you come up with this stuff.

you can't make this stuff up....

oh, wait, did you see goff throw 5 interceptions and they won the game

I've always been a rush supporter as a backup, but yesterday his passes in the 15 yd range, we're not getting there in a timely manner. Those days are over, I'm afraid.

Just got my new nickname for Rush from another poster: SubJAG.

They never did.

Feel better?

We sure are spending a lot of time and energy ripping up our players.

Rush is terrible! So is Dak! Like wise the 3rd stringer! Get rid of all of them!
I hope we lose the rest of our games and pick a QB in the1st round!

We have a lot of players playing bad!

Still at it huh?

 

[DasTex]

He looked like he just got off the couch and entered the game.

Maybe had lifted some 12oz weights in the offseason. His arm was never strong but it looked extra weak in that game.

I know this is just a stupid troll post, but even the opening premise is wrong.

Lamb catching the TD makes it 10-7, but then the Eagles drove the field for a TD right before the half, so best case scenario it's 14-10 at halftime.

It was the running game, that moved the ball. Rush played poorly and played worse as we abandonded the running game.

It was the playcalling that limited Rush's ability to stretch the field.
But he managed the game. He made bad plays with the fumbles, but that happens.
Still the Cowboys were in the game.
If McCarthy had allowed him to stretch the field with the passing game they might have won.

45 yards passing …

We do. But it seems very malicious at this point. But I guess humans will human. If you can tear others down as harshly as possible... it makes you feel better about yourself?

We been talking about how bad this team is through and through. You'd think there'd be a smidgeon of compassion for Coop being thrown in it.

But nope...stomp him in the ground hard. And laugh about it. Sad.

The kid lectures me about wound to tight then he does something stupid like that.

No sense of humor AND an internet bully? Bad combination!

Kid is probably right...sadly, one of many on this board who need to grow up. As you can see, he didn't even bother to reply to me. Not sure how I will sleep tonight
