This is to tell you exactly, how the coaches feel about Cooper Rush

Our defense can buckle down against the run, but they start every game in attack mode. Do I think we'll get hit for a couple of big plays early on.

Our skill players on offense have proven that they can get if done, but will Rush have time to go deep? And can our RB's put up good yardage? So the real variable is the play of both our lines. The eagles, on paper, seem to have the advantage over us when it comes to line play.

This game will come down to the coaches. The players pretty much cancel one another out. So the coaches and special teams will decide who wins this game. Oddly enough I trust Moore to come up with an great plan of attack. It's Quinn and the defense that I'm worried about. Does Quinn have enough influence to make our DLine slow down a bit? Because, they are going to have to slow play s lot of plays and still get after Hurts when needed.

They have the better lines on offense and defense. We have better skill players on offense and defense. So coaching matters in this game. Time to see what this team is made of...on the road, nevertheless.

Dallas wins 23 to 20 in overtime, IMO.. But I'm a Homer and I'll never pick against my 'Boys.
Absolutely nothing wrong with cheering 'em on!

I find being some sort of objective super fan ESPN analyst boring, tedious...and frankly sometimes cowardly. Like afraid of emotional letdown. It's part of the game, part of the fun!

on the thrid and long pass to Gallup along the sidelines, I guarantee Dak checks down to a TE for a 6 yard gain. No way in hell Dak throws it to Gallup.

I hope you don't gamble then because I could probably find a dozen such throws down the sideline to Gallup, Cooper, Lamb, Brice Butler among others in Dak's career in under an hour. But I won't waste my time doing it because people who dislike Dak will move the goal post or minimize them anyway..

Then you should stay out of threads that are obviously created just for that purpose!!!!!!!

Late in the fourth quarter cowboys up by six . fourth and five for first down. Maybe six I truly don’t recall. Well I do recall his watching McCarthy on the sidelines and I know he wanted to go for it. We kick a field goal. If Prescott was in there do you think McCarthy kicks that field goal. I don’t.
The smart decision is to kick the field goal and make it a two-score game. Unless, that is, you're Josh McDaniels.

Wasn't it Dak who made Gallup famous for those acrobatic sideline catches?:huh:

Indeed it was.. I want to say the very first play of the season last year against Tampa was such a throw.. They were backed up deep in their own end and Tampa and everybody else in the world braced for the Zeke dive up the middle.. Dak play actioned and hit Gallup (or was it Coop?) for a 30+ yarder down the sideline. But these guys apparently didn't see it.. so it never happened.

If memory serves me correctly, I remember a few deep balls and toe taps from Dak to Gallup.

Yeah I just went and re-watched the Tampa opening shot.. that one was to Cooper.. But that reminded me of the play where Gallup hurt his knee against AZ.. a dime on 3rd and long with the defender all over Gallup.. Dak dropped it right where only Gallup could could make a play on it. But again.. these guys missed that game.. so it never happened. I really think that if Gallup's cleat doesn't get caught in the turf and rip up his knee we probably win that game.

OZ---i am 100% with you.....I am a total Homer and will NEVER pick against our Boys......i guess on this site you dont have to be a HOMER i dont know?........oz do you have gamepass?

if you do watch last game of Sheagles against Arizona.....their offense is scary fast and so is their defense......Hurts can avoid sacks and throw people open......i did not pay attention last i heard Hurts

was average or less.....but he is playing "lights out" for him.....if we can somehow scheme long sustaining drives to keep our defense from getting worn out....i think we can win this game no doubt....

but Rush is not a "shoot out" QB......i would love if Cooper started then Dak came in later...if at all possible.....i put a (10)Heka-Plat guarantee win over Sheagles because i get so fired up early in week

but on game day i am nervous wreck....plus this week i deeply hate the Sheagles and cannot stomach thought of them winning...So Go-Cowboys Heka-Plat the snot out of them

For some reason I expected a better explanation.
You want a great explain, just watch Prescot implode when he returns. This team finally has an identity and Prescot will blow the whole thing up with his decision making and play.......................

They beat the 2-3 Cards by three points on a shanked FG

You really think Prescot can come in and lead this team deep into the playoffs? DCs showed us last season that Prescot doesn't have the mind set to lead this club and he looked like the same Dak who played horrible last season when Tampa showed up on opening night.

Did you think Nick Foles could lead his team to the playoffs? Or that Eli could do it twice?
