What to do if Cooper Rush takes the Cowboys on a win streak?

It is hilarious as the Dak Prescott lovers merely provide a massively biased side of the story. They list his touchdowns and how many games the team has won yet that's it. No further detail.

Regarding last season...

Where did the Cowboys' opponents rank in pass defense?

How many good playoff calibre teams with a winning record did the Cowboys beat?

Where did the Cowboys' defense rank?

How many takeaways did the Cowboys D secure?

What was the average starting position of the Cowboys offense compared with that of other teams?

How many more possessions did the Cowboys offense have compared with orher teams?

How did Prescott specifically play against two good play off teams in the 49ers and Bills?

Rather than just bleating out 2nd team All Pro...please consider the above and the state of Prescott's performances this season...

Ok...the Cowboys are not playing the worst passing defenses any longer, the Cowboys D is not as good for various reasons resulting in less takeaways and poorer starting positions for the offense...in other words when Prescott isn't carried by others he isn't able to perform to an All Pro level.

Who knew?!

Well how did Prescott play in the two play off games on strong Cowboy teams against the 49ers? He had MULTIPLE opportunities to win both of those games and the opposing quarterbacks were Jimmy G and Mr Irrelevant respectively...yet he fell flat on his face and failed to execute the few more plays required to win even one of those games.

He wasn't good enough then and he certainly will not be good enough now after tearing his hamstring crawling for a 22 yard "rush".

What do we do?

We laugh and thank the heavens that we're not the ones paying Dak 60 Mil a year.

You know Jerry is having major buyers remorse right now.

He will never admit it, but there's no way he doesn't.

Dak hasn't played a single good game since signing that contract and now he's "hurt" and will surely milk this injury as long as he can.

Same thing I do if Dak leads the team on a winning streak.. Celebrate! I hate watching my team lose so this whole cheering for them to lose so we get a better draft pick aint in the cards for me. I'm cheering for Rush to win at least 3 out of the next 4 to keep us somewhat afloat.

I don’t think the Cowboys lose much-if-anything playing Rush in Dak’s stead. Dak had become gunshy and reticent to make downfield throws. Rush has confidence in the play but, while his throws appear more accurate, he seems to lack the arm strength to really drive a eeep out route. His protection will be spotty, his line apt to presnap penalties, and his receiver group thin outside of Ferguson. Add the fact that he can’t rely on a running gane to take pressure off of him AND an offensive scheme that is frequently bewildering… and all I can say is ‘Good luck.’ I consider Rush to be a very solid NFL backup QB but, at 30-y/o, with little-to-no upside.

Honestly, I’d rather start Trey Lance to see if there is ANY gold to be mined there. Anyway, it’s not like we’re going anywhere this season.
