What if Micah and Bland returning sparks the defense

[jazzcat22]

So what happens if Micah and Bland returning sparks the defense and helps the team win games. And with Rush at QB as well.

Remember when the defense played lights out when he won 4 games before throwing 3 picks in a loss to the Eagles.
And we got the anti Dak crowd still talking about that to this day. As if it makes Rush automatically better. I take neither side.

I am not defending Dak, or down playing Cooper. But that defense did help so much in those wins.
So will history repeat itself. Like the chicken and the egg. Is it the defense helping, or Rush being better.
What if both fail, as we are still missing other players. Will the pro Rush crowd then use the defense as an excuse.

There will be many interesting threads and posts about this. When will fans scream for Trey Lance. Some already are. I am one of them. Just play him now.

I honestly don't get the "what if" question here.

So then what? The season is toast either way. Even if by some miracle they make the play offs it will be a quick end there with a bad draft in return.

Then THEIR trade value goes back up, and we can get multiple firsts via the Walker Trade of years past!!!!!!!!

right, what has he shown us that will make someone think he can turn this ship wreck around, they can pad stats etc and Micah can raise his value to get that big money he wants

Would only affect our 2025 draft slotting.

Unfortunately, I don't think the return of those players will make any difference. Is their return going to help stop the run (maybe), or improve our running game?? Doubt it. But, who knows.

running right at an UNDERSIZED DE that surely won't help

I mean it only matters if we are winning. I think this team needs a top 5 pick and talent but If they win it’s not a bad thing I guess. Sometimes you have to get bad to get better. We haven’t been bad in a long time.

Nothing. The Cowboys are still stuck with Dak. The Cowboys still won't make the playoffs. They still let McCarthy walk in 2 months. The only thing winning any games does the rest of the year is hurt their draft position.

Booger still owns the team whichever what if happens. The sun still rises in the east. And water is still wet.

But I don't see a QB controversy. And the contracts say there is none.

At the end of the day, the guy with the bigger contract is Booger's hand picked starter and the moon is not made out of green cheese. Neither will change.

Yeah on this team draft status and salary is what they play. Guyton should’ve been in the bench.

be bad by trading Micah and using his compensation to get that top 5 pick!! Sad thing is, Jerry thinks every pick is a top 5

You're talking about the same guy that will say "we don't have any thoughts of making a change right now!" Will have this going on all summer lol, and all of the GOOD top candidates will be gone, we'll be stuck with Norv Turner or something, he'll leave the job he just got with the Raiders to be our coach!

that defense was lights out to get Rush those wins, who i thought played ok and at that time better than Dak.

Not seeing it happen again, think the team broke after that 2nd 49ers playoff loss where the defense did everything it could to have the offense just piss it away.

I don’t think you can trade a player and get a top 5 pick. Gonna be tough.

Imo, neither are going to be 100% right off the bat

Problem with Rush that is he couldn’t score much. They could score with Dak but he was throwing a lot of picks.

They will help the passing defense for sure. But if the other team can run the ball at will, it won't matter.

I’m wondering if the pass defense can even be help if you can’t stop the run or score the football.

Use some other picks to move around in the 1st!!! (not that I want to)
