Let me start out by saying that there is literally NOTHING that Cooper Rush does better than Dak Prescott. NOTHING. Lie to yourselves if you want to. Allow your biases against Dak to cloud your thinking all you want but there is nothing Rush does better. He plays within his own ability and doesn't try to do to much and manages to do just enough. That's his job. Yes, I give him props for that, he deserves it.
The funny thing to me is, the same people who are pumping up Cooper Rush are the people who saw him in training camp and in the preseason, who were screaming from the rooftops for Will Grier to be handed the backup QB job. That's not hilarious to anyone else? Yall think he's just a guy that turns it on with lights on?
So all of a sudden, Dak gets hurt, and Cooper Rush comes in and performs the role of a substitute teacher and we happen to win two games and now he's better? All he's been asked to do is follow the teacher's lesson plan and not let the kids burn down the classroom. THAT'S IT! We've scored two touchdowns in the last seven quarters and all of a sudden, he gives us a better chance to win. We lose these games easily if not for the defensive efforts we have gotten. Dak hangs 40 on that Giants team. Make it make sense. I got a BC powder for your eventual headaches.
Stop this ridiculousness.
Not a Dak guy but I agree with you and I really am not a Dak guy at all.
Rush is a backup, I have heard podcasts where they say the Cowboys offense is running first week training camp stuff with Rush but that is ok.
I really misjudged this team. I thought we were awful the first week, and, Dak getting injured. I was thinking 5 wins and hoping for 3 wins.
The truth is the NFC is historically weak when you consider 7 playoff spots. 4 Division winners and three wild cards.
once you get past the division winners, Philly,GB, TB & Rams.
I think we are clearly in this group, SF, Minny, Dallas, Lions ??, Panthers??, Saints??
Philly should really push for the number 1 seed as I think TB is the best in the NFC.
