When the starting QB is playing, success or failure falls on him. When the backup comes in, a lot of the credit or blame shifts to the coaching staff. All this season has shown is that we have a highly overpaid average starting QB and a horrible coaching staff.
so now its not Rush's fault or bad play. its everybody else. got it :thumbup:

The only thing I saw people say was that Rush can manage to get blown out just like Dak but at a huge discount. This remains a true statement. Of course Dak is better but that’s just a relative statement. Dak being better than Rush doesn’t make him a good starting QB.
this was the dumbest post from anyone on this thread.

A lot of people had doubts about Rush. I previously advocated cleaning out the entire QB room. Rush is and always has been a borderline 3rd string QB. Never good enough to be 2nd string. Our QB room talent going into this season was a backup (Dak), a 3rd stringer and a project.

Exactly.

He looked awful today. No argument there

With Dak we probably lose 34-16 instead of 34-6

That's not worth $60 million a year
Time to start looking for a true franchise qb. Actually it's long overdue but the sooner they work on finding such a man, the better

We don't have a legitimate NFL qb on the roster as of today
but that's the going rate for top 15 QBs in the league. there are 10 that make 50M or more....you want to tell me they are all carrying their teams? there are 17 that make 40M or more.
and what's a franchise QB?
I am not saying we shouldn't draft a QB. but people keep saying Franchise QB...or do you mean an Elite QB?

Some of them think that just because Rush and Lance did bad today, means that Dak did good this season. Mr twice 6 points with 12 minutes on the board in the 3rd quarter this season would've somehow had more than 6 point into the 3rd quarter against a superior opponent than he faced previously. Then some are expecting him to look mobile next year coming off a hamstring injury.
you failed at spinning this into a Dak Bash thread. Rush and Lance sucked. bunch of people on here been drumming Rush as a 5-1 QB who will make this team better.....

He's a backup for a reason. I don't think there was anyone clamoring for him as a starter. But, this was the worst game He's played and this doesn't change the fact that Dak is way overpaid and not an elite QB.

Dallas has the biggest fanbase and the largest group that's delusional. Anyone favoring Rush and treating it as he's an equal is just not a serious person.
Rush should be 3rd string. Or gone.

We need more help than at QB. That is the problem some on the board just don't want to realize. Been that way for a while....people on just Dak like their Fantasy Football numbers are in shambles.
Sure we need more help than just at QB. But when your team doesn't have a Quarterback either, usually that is the first position you worry about. The Main Quarterback is at the end of his road, slow, worn, injury prone and people here think that focusing in at other positions first and popping him right back in means that everything is going to be alright? Lets just have other teams pass rush him and him take the sack after the injury because he is even slower because of the injury...

If you put every QB in the world on this team they would be horrendous. The team that Jeruh built takes extreme talent to be this bad.
The team is bad, yes. But your statement is hyperbole. Elite QBs (mahomes, allen) would have this offense playing significantly better than it is. Lamb, Ferguson, Colbert, Turpin are not that bad a group.

You’re an outright liar and Dak groupie. Never saw you post before and know these things based off this one post because there is no meaningful percentage of Boys fans that said this BS you’re claiming to make this post. Flip outta here
Yep...fake news. Yes...people want to "move on" from current starter. The two backups just happen to be on the team at the moment and it is a change...for better OR worse.

People did talk about a couple specifics...but VERY VERY few called him a better QB. Just a different one.

oh, there were quite a few hear proclaiming this offense is about to get better. @leeblair @PAPPYDOG @MountaineerCowboy all kept talking about the Rush 5-1 record..

but I get that people with no football knowledge would act and talk that way.

I doubt they would have the offense playing better than this. Elite QBs are able to raise their game at the crucial moments and bring home a win. they utilize the resources they have.
Mahomes led offense scored all of 9 points in a superbowl loss because his OL had multiple injuries and they couldn't get running game going.

this notion of Elite QBs carry the team on their own and just give them any resource and they will make those players great is total fantasy made up in some fans minds.

again, elite QBs, given resources are able to make the plays to pull out wins.

I'm glad you don't get to watch Dak take another snap this season.
I am sure it makes you happy, given you rather cowboys lose with Dak, than win. not a made up statement. you actually said that. Bash Dak Over Dallas..

so Rush is 5-2..... next is Texans.... you still want to bang that drum?
