Thanks for the good run, Rush

[MountaineerCowboy]

No way we put pressure like that on our franchise QB?

Are you hoping to be taken seriously?

Watch and see.

They'd rather lose that game with Rush than Dak.

 

[jwooten15]

Quite a few drops? I counted 2. that would have added probably 20-25 yards....

And 6+ points. They were big drops

Nobody "Hates" Dak . . . He just Sucks

You can say Dak is average but in no world does Dak “suck”. Take your blinders off and watch QB play around the league. It’s not much better outside of 5-6 other guys on a week-to-week basis.

 

[aikemirv]

There's NO WAY they bring Dak back against the Eagles after going 4-0 with Rush.

Yeah I don’t think they will either-he would have to be 100% with not one concern to put him up there against their pass rush.

 

[Cowfan75]

Dak can shake hands now...that's nice. Meanwhile, we are 4-0 without him, including a win over the Super Bowl champs. Only Jerry is anxious about Dak.

 

[Nav22]

I can't stress this enough......

This is a new year and both teams have new players on their rosters.

Whatever happened last years means absolutely nothing this year.

You’re right, but that still doesn’t mean this is some “high pressure” game that’s totally unlike last year’s SNF game vs Philly.

It’s Week 6 of the regular season. Dak’s won plenty of “big” regular season games.

Ride with Rush until Dak’s 100%.

 

[uvaballa]

Cooper is definitely going back to the bench. Anyone who says otherwise is kidding themselves.

 

[AbeBeta]

Watch and see.

They'd rather lose that game with Rush than Dak.

This only makes sense to you

 

[okstateCowboy]

Watch and see.

They'd rather lose that game with Rush than Dak.

The coaches, players and front office don’t care what a small subset of the fan base thinks about the QB situation. Dak will play when his hand is healthy. Full stop. They’re not going to manipulate his return date as a way of PR control. If you really think this then you are clueless.

 

[TWOK11]

No.

Dak will get his job back when Rush plays horrible and we lose.

There's no way they put a guy like Dak, who wilts under pressure, back in against the undefended divisional rival on Sunday Night football. You're just asking for trouble.

It'll be another week of him not being able to grip the ball.

Dak has spent his entire career pummeling divisional opponents.

 

[Blackrain]

There has to be real concern going through everyone's head if Dak sucks when he comes back and we lose.

They're paying Dak a lot of money to be great and now we're 4-0 without him on the field and 0-1 with him.

Dak still has more turnovers right now this season than Rush does.

There's real concern right now in my opinion.

But this experiment has to play itself out

At this point we have a fair sample size for this season and have beaten last year's super bowl contestants and won every game since dak went out.

This is more than just a coincidence.

If our unathletic immobile Noodle armed backup bus driving second string quarterback can go undefeated with this team and only cost us a ham sandwich.

What should our elite top 10. 40 million a year star starting quarterback be able to do with this team.

From what I can see we should be able to score 30 plus points a game and steamroll over everyone.

If not it's time to draft a quarterback keep Cooper Rush and use the 40 million for four other impact players and see what happens.

 

[okstateCowboy]

Dak has spent his entire career pummeling divisional opponents.

And Dak blew out the Eagles twice last year.

 

[MountaineerCowboy]

This only makes sense to you

You're paying one guy pennies and another guy a fortune.

Who would you rather lose a game and look bad with?

It's literal common sense.

 

[TheHerd]

If the only way KM keeps calling these gameplans is to leave Rush in, I'm all for it. If Dak comes back and KM goes back to his old self, we will lose. But if KM stays on this course with Dak at QB, we're a better team.

 

[MountaineerCowboy]

The coaches, players and front office don’t care what a small subset of the fan base thinks about the QB situation. Dak will play when his hand is healthy. Full stop. They’re not going to manipulate his return date as a way of PR control. If you really think this then you are clueless.

The players and coaches may not care, but the FO does.

They'd rather Rush look bad than Dak.

If I was the person paying these guys I would too.

That's common sense.

 

[AbeBeta]

Dak can shake hands now...that's nice. Meanwhile, we are 4-0 without him, including a win over the Super Bowl champs. Only Jerry is anxious about Dak.

And our passing O has been anemic. These wins are all about the D giving up only 13 points a game.

 

[The Quest for Six]

I think Cooper will be playing one more week..

 

[okstateCowboy]

You're paying one guy pennies and another guy a fortune.

Who would you rather lose a game and look bad with?

It's literal common sense.

This is fandom. This is not how coaches and front offices work. They play the best players when healthy. They don’t adjust starting lineups for PR management.

 

[MountaineerCowboy]

Dak has spent his entire career pummeling divisional opponents.

Then bring him back.

What could go wrong, right?

 

[Blackrain]

As the season goes on and we face better opponents we’re going to have to do more offensively. Not to take anything away from the win but we caught a struggling Rams team today.

Yeah it's a heck of a coincidence but a lot of teams have been struggling when they face our defense lately considering they've allowed less points than the 85 bears in the same number of games.

Imagine if our receivers would catch the ball and move the chains what a wonderful world it would be
