Has as many wins as the 60 Mil man does this season.

And less loses.
4 more years...4 more years..Today was the first Cowboys game in 40 years that I was not home for, and did NOT record to watch later. I did listen to it on Sirius XM, but that's it. This is how the demented owner of this team has turned me off of Cowboys Football.

I heard someone say he checks out of it and the offense isn’t good enough to do it. Which is why you see guys confused and pointing fingers at each other. It’s also why we stink against good defenses because you can’t just play vanilla and not opt out of plays against a stacked box.
We need to have it where we check out of a run into another run. If the defense is stacking inside, then run to the outside. Of course, we have to have runners who can make defenses pay with outside runs.

Let's see ... Rush beat

The Commanders (who we usually beat)
The Giants (with Danny Devito at QB)
The Panther (who are in contention for the top pick of the draft)

But couldn't take advantage of a weak Bengals' defense.

Numbers and records don't always tell the story.
Lets see… Dak beat

The Cleveland Browns

The NY Giants

The Steelers with Fields

David Moore said Rush doesn't check out of runs as often as Dak does.

People underestimate how much Dak runs the show from the line.
Thats the problem. Dak doesn't have enough functioning brain cells to determine what the defense is doing to be able to have freedom to check out of plays. He should be treated like a rookie and not be given freedom. Defenses easily confuse him into wrong plays. I'd rather take noodle arm Rush over brain dead Dak.

I agree. I don’t think the problem is checking out of plays I question what we are actually checking into.

I think it was mentioned by the announcers as well. Maybe something we need to adjust next year when Dak returns. Not all QBs are great at having all the decision-making power. I remember when we wanted to make Garrett's offense Romo-friendly by letting Romo call the shots. He did the same thing, checked out of runs to passes.
Exactly, I think it's basically the same it's been in that way since Garrett was here.

They make it too easy to check out of those. At least check to a different run play.

It’s a combination of everything…..Bland and Micah were hurt, offensive line seems to be playing better without Martin….and these teams suck. This is the easy part of our schedule.
Yes, easy part of schedule, but Dak played like crap against good teams and gave them no chance. He actually contributed to getting blown out so he was a big reason why they weren't competitive against good teams. Thar summarizes Dak as a player his entire career. He can't rise up against good teams and he is part of the problem they get crushed.

We all know that Dak is the greatest QB in Cowboy’s history!

I just had to say this so Daktoids don’t get butt hurt!

This isn't about Dak, unless it is.
Second, I've had my fill of Dak, but he has led the Cowboys to the playoffs.
If this thread is about propping up Rush's stats to show that he's better than Dak, then it fails because, as of right now, Dak's resume is better than Rush's. :)

You tried diminishing Rush’s wins for what reason?

That aside, this thread was showcasing what he has done here in his entire career, not just this season
