I just saw this on Yahoo sports.

"Excluding the final two minutes of each half, Rush threw just nine passes beyond the sticks upon first review; less than 50% were completions, and one resulted in an interception."

This is the problem with the Cowboys offense. Way too many passes for little yardage. No real threat to go downfield. Teams play tight coverage underneath and let the Cowboys offense shut itself down.
If the Texans defenders could catch
, they easily gave 5-6 picks

It should be noted that the offense was ran the same way before Dak's 'injury'.

Cowboys fans, how do you feel if he threw a lot of INT's in a game, just want to know. I mean it can't get much worse than this, I think i'm just asking this from Jerry's perspective, not sure what's holding coach Jerry back

Other than him looking even more stupid because Lance is terrible, I don't know why we wouldn't try. The fact he couldn't beat out Rush is a problem though. Lol

The only way Lance is going to start is if they fire MM. The head coach has never played with a duel threat quarterback. This is what happens when you make a trade without consulting your coaches.

When Rush got benched, Lance should have been given the practice reps and game snaps moving forward. It's complete malpractice, most likely from our want-to-be GM who clings onto players out of personal loyalty, instead of moving on so the team can improve. Jones does an amazing job of wasting the best years of a players career because he can't assemble a complete team. Romo and Prescott are perfect examples.

Do you want Cooper Rush?
Do you want Trey Lance?
It should be Trey Lance since you used a 4th round selection on him in a trade, he needs the work and you need to find out if he's worth resigning next year as a backup, we already know what Cooper Rush is, but it seems that Cooper Rush is going to start in Washington..
