What you are missing is that Cooper Rush is a better QB than you are giving him credit for.
well sarcasm aside he or grier might be as good as the available list options ,
we dotn know how much they've grown like players in Steele, kearse, gholston, Osa, etc that have faired a lot better then fans thought they would have..
If one of our backups can simply keep the bus straight, dink and dunk, the occasional PA longer pass but hand it off until their arm falls off to zeke and pollard , i believe with this OL and run game we can still win games..
we may not win them BIG and dominant as with Dak but this is TEAM this year this not isnt Dak or bust..
Yes Dak is playing great, arguable his best season to date SO FAR and will help us win games big and explosives' exciting stuff but we have already seen 3 of 5 wins dak was not being leaned on with our 2 headed run game..he made plays but if our run game was that dominate with that OL, we can get by with some ugly , close wins IMO..maybe not a sb who knows but if its not season ending a few games etc
we most likely dont see what MM and KM see in rush and or grier that they dont think anyone actually available can do much better..
can rush even be much worse then some of bottom 10-14 starters right now like we have seen fields and lance , Wilson, and even players like Darnold etc have you witnessed those "starters" play of late..aint so pretty..some has been ugly..
so give a backup our run game, ol, play caller and playing better defense and who knows, the bus's wheel can go round and round , just stay on course..
