Some of yall thought Rush was a capable QB

[DuncanIso]

This has nothing to do with Dak

Has nothing to do with Daks contract

Nothing to do with Dak being good or not

But there was a large segment in here that thought Cooper Rush was a capable nfl qb. Please stop. He’s horrendous. His arm talent grades out as an F-

Agree.

Lance should start.

I'm not gonna bash Cooper. He's the backup QB for a reason. Expecting anything more than what we got today was foolish. He looked decent a few years ago with a great supporting cast - this time around he's got a bottom 10 OL, bottom 10 receiving corps, and the absolute worst RB room in the NFL behind him. DISASTER is what we should expect, and that's exactly what we got today.

We can't expect more than 45 yards passing?

Jared Goff? Hurts?

Last night, Goff tosses 5 interceptions, but his team fought to the end.....and got a win. A team helps a QB become elite.

 

[Smith22]

If we're in the top five of the draft, I believe that you take one if there's one worth taking there because the plan is to not be in that position very often. Of course, it may end up like it did the year we took Elliott first and the only QBs worth taking in the top five were both gone (and one at least has proven to be not worth it).

Awful year to draft a QB.

These guys don’t know what a QB is they think quarterbacks do it themselves.

The Boys have a lot of problems. Its time for a massive rebuild. Micah, Cee Dee, and Dak aren't going to help turn this thing around either. Trade them for picks or outright release Dak. Bite the salary cap bullet.
Start by hiring a real GM and let him hire a Coach and build this thru the draft by picking the best player available each round.
Then maybe in 3 years the Boys will be back. Ugly short-term future ahead no matter what.

Might as well. This season is over.

Not really, but the QB has to have a strength around which you can formulate a gameplan.
Dak just doesnt seem to have that element to build around.....he just needs too much to perform.....especially on $60m (sorry, $44 this year).

 

[Creeper]

But I was told be several people that there is no difference between Dak and Rush. Rush 13-23 45 yds and 2 fumbles lost.

If those were Dak's numbers the Dak sucks threads would dominate this board.

His cap hits have always been low. That’s an excuse. Jerry tells you guys this and you bite.

That’s honestly the worst stat line I’ve seen in Dallas..

What exactly are your qualifications for knowing “what a QB is?”

Hyperbole.....there were just a handful that said that Rush was capable.

His 1.9 million salary a year shows exactly who he is

 

[Mr_437]

The OL didn't block for Rush, he had no run game, the WRs ran poor routes, McCarthy offense is terrible...think I covered all the excuses for the Dallas starting QB position.

Well no crap. What’s your point?

Most of us that are critical of Dak never said Rush was better. Of course he isn’t. We simply said we could get the same overall results with him behind center and guess what? We did. We got another beat down at home. Only difference was the QB behind center wasn’t getting paid 60 million.

Dak Prescott isn’t worth the money being spent on him. Period.

From a backup QB operating with some of the NFL's worst offensive personnel? maybe you could expect just a little bit more, but the ceiling is still "Terrible".

A lot of the posters here who put most, if not all, of this team's struggles on Dak are now seeing just how much the team around said QB matters. There are maybe two QBs in the entirety of the NFL that can elevate a bad offensive group.

 

[RustyBourneHorse]

It's as if having a running game and additional receivers besides Lamb would help an offense move the ball.

 

[leeblair]

If you guys believe what you saw was the best the Cowboys could do with Rush there's no hope for you.
NO NFL team is that bad
The play calling was set up to fail.
It's as if they wanted fans to believe that without Dak it's hopeless.
But we have seen Rush be a lot better when the Cowboys wanted him to be.

 

[CowboysFaninHouston]

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

actually. factually I have seen JBS post a lot of times.

but interestingly, you are new. aren't you?

 

[CowboysFaninHouston]

Before tonight rush was 5-1...pretty good back and fully capable....basing opinions on his prior play is fully justified

so wins and losses are now a QB stat?

why did the cowboys go 5-1 with Rush? if you actually looked into it, you would see the defense on average was giving up 13 points a game and even scored on a couple of occasions to help the offense. Rush led offense was 22nd or worse in every offensive statistical category.... so this performance wasn't a surprise. the surprise was how much worse than I expected. I never imagined this bad.

but plenty of folks like myself had been saying it. Rush is not able to carry a team to anything. and we now clearly know.
