Yeah everyone knows your personal feelings for Dak..lol..Makes you want Cooper Rush to start at QB..lol. He also has less than Tom Brady and Rodgers...lol
I'd prefer neither Dak or Rush to be the starter and we draft, trade for, or sign someone instead.

I want wants best for the Cowboys. You seem to have more of a rooting interest in Dak. Are the games not as fun for you if Dak isn't playing?

Also, Brady and Rodgers have played more than 3 quarters this season also, unlike Dak, who in 3 quarters has more turnovers than Rush.

No man, you have personal feelings about Dak that make you think the offense is better with Rush when clearly its not...so who is about one player? I have said im all for an upgrade many times, and Rush is not it. Thats being for the team...trying to argue that the 26th ranked offense is why we are winning because you dont like the starting QB is not for the team its for your personal feelings...pretty obvious to everyone. Your last comment is correct yet you blindly try and make references to the 3 quarters like that is a good enough body of work to prove your point...hmm which again sounds like a personal thing against that player....you dont like Dak thats fine, but clearly given a correct body of work the offense is better with him over Rush...which is better for the team its just that simple.

I know you want to see 50 passes and 450 yards....but that isn't a good way for us to win. It's been proven over and over.

I am not sure Cooper can do that. BUT.... I think Cooper is in Dak 2016 mode....trusting the rest of the team to win and he doesn't fug it up. I think this trust, calm demeanor and few mistakes make it easier on the O-line and the defense. So in that regard, Cooper is contributing.

And I tell you what...Coops passes aren't laser beams.....but watch where and when those passes land in receivers hands. Dang near perfect. But you have to watch with non-agenda eyes.

You're projecting about the "personal feelings" stuff.

My attachment to Dak lies with him being the QB for my favorite team. When he is gone and someone else's problem then Dak is nothing to me.

I have a feeling you'll follow Dak and watch his career wherever he goes.

Literally in several threads have said keep this scheme even when Dak is in it will just get more effecient...so ill take it you have me confused with another poster.

Lol man your memory is horrible, last year you try and tell me i had fond memories of Roger that were because of the "Old Days" and now I'm following Dak to another team...typical from you.

That's right. Making good sound decisions to put the team in the most favorable place. Going for it would serve no purpose...most especially if you don;t make it. Then this OP would be complaining about THAT.

No FG is guaranteed. But Maher is kicking well, and it makes it two TD game. The right call no matter what.

Not sure why the OP is doing this.
You know why..lol

On fourth and five Dak would throw a 2 yard out to Schultz and McCarthy knows it, everyone knows it. So we would have kicked the FG with Dak.

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.

Yes, because it made it a two-score game. You are playing the odds that you can keep LA from scoring twice, has little to do with the QB.

What? lol

You saying I will follow Dak to another team is hilarious...born and raised in Fort Worth TX. 50+ years there will never be another team...ever. Been through much better QB's leaving and still here..and again all for an upgrade at QB, Rush is not an equal much less an upgrade..he has done a fantastic job as QB2 these games but the offense is better with Dak..again this is not some crazy thinking its very simple.

I didn't say you'd be a fan of another team.

I said you would follow Dak's career to another team. You seem that invested in him.

Its mind blowing this is so hard to grasp for people..we are not winning because our scoring is way down..we are winning because our defense alowing scores is way down...Adding another 7 points a game would only help this defense, its incredibly dumb logic to say "Look when we score less points the defense is better" ...incredible.
No....but when we play calm, ball control offense with few turnovers.....THAT certainly helps the defense.

Lol i would bet heavy that if he went to another team and had problems you would have several threads moved out of this zone because it was about another team..thats how invested you are in him, seriously you couldnt help yourself. lol I have said so many times now I'm all for an upgrade..lol

And if we played that more effecient we would score more...again KM needs to keep the QB under center like he has adn keep this scheme. With Dak back it will open routes that Rush can not throw and add mobility for PA roll outs and such we have limits on now...biggest tale is look at the scoring metrics..we are 27th in scoring 23rd in scoring per play, 22nd in scoring per drive..those actually do mean something. Teams are clogging the middle and forcing out routes because Rush arm is a gamble throwing them and he is a low threat to take the ball and run wide on a roll out. I'm not bashing Rush these things are to be expected when your having to play QB2. Your redzone offense will struggle when the field shrinks and with a QB who has limitations on throwinf routes it shrinks it even more...again its just the diference between QB1 and QB2 in todays NFL.

Fair enough i get you. I think coop should get credit.....some people wont or grudgingly, cautious to not offend their dak fandom.
This thread is despicable.

Its like alot of threads on here, it's a rebutal to another thread that was far on the otherside i imagine. Rush deserves huge credit, not many if any fans here could see him playing this well...but with this defense and ST if we can keep KM's head straight on this scheme Dak will bring better tools to the QB play as he should be expected too. the play call on the field goal was the correct call no matter who the QB is, you put the team down 2 scores late in the game when your defense is shutting them down all game like that.

I thought the play that told us the most about how they felt about him was the 3rd and 8 from inside their own 10. They threw that quick out to Gallup with almost no chance to convert because they didn't want to risk throwing it beyond the sticks. Let the guy throw the ball or run it. That call was not smart IMO

No matter who the QB is, going for the FG was the best move. Time running down, up by 12 points, D is all over the place. Go the the dressing room safe and sound with a win.
