Anyone who thinks Cooper Rush is better than Dak is following the wrong sport. One of the top five dumbest threads ever was the one about had we had kept Cooper Rush in the lineup the Cowboys would have won the Super Bowl. There were a number of fans that actually agreed with it.:laugh:

I'm not sure anyone made the claim that Rush was better than Dak but rather saw how Dallas schemed with Rush at the helm and knowing his shortcomings relied more on the defense and running game while going for timed passes.....that is what many wanted with Dak at the helm so it was more about the system and wanting Dak to be treated as a game manger type QB rather than going air raid offense.
Use the search function... You'll see hundreds of posts making that claim.

So no one wants the guy who had a better record than Dak at a fraction of the price, and this makes Dak look good?
Basically just highlights that the NFL GMs know what you do not: wins are not a QB stat.

Because NFL people know your small sample size counts for zip. They can also easily see it was the defense carrying the team at that point in the season.

It's such an ignorant argument, which has been proven stupid time and again.
I never made that argument. My point is I dont see how Cooper not getting signed makes Dak look better

He is on the open market right now.

Mike White got signed, and Jared Stidham too.

So, to all the Cooper Rush is "better than Dak "truthers" out there. Why has no one signed him?
Not that I was one of those saying that he's better than Dak, but Rush's shortcomings always will keep him from being an ideal NFL quarterback. He simply lacks the arm strength to be more than a backup. His ability to succeed has always been clouded by that fact. Intangibles are difficult to measure. He showed his understanding of the game last year, but it also came in a system he had been in for years. He knows the Cowboys offense inside and out. How does that translate to another system? Hard to tell.

Rush is that backup QB you sign when you run out of options with better arms.

He was sure better when dak threw up 3 whole points against Tampa
And better oline? Go watch that Rams game again and see how well the oline did that game

Dak has more upside but more downside, the dude has been crazy inconsistent these past two years. Dude obliterates Tampa in the playoffs on the road then cant hit the broadside of a barn against the 49ers
right when rush didn't have things perfect he threw for 107 yards in full NFL game had 2 fumbles and might as well stayed home, Dak in the same situations play far better then that,,.But dak get criticized and fans ie dak haters blame dak when that happens and you rush to rushes aide stating oh no look at the OL well hat 9ers game both years on the OL , no RUN GAME AT ALL, OL getting pushed off the ball and didnt allow for clean passing lanes. Right, thats on dak?UMmNOT? we lose by 6 and 7 those games , rush it wouldn't have been a blowout. lol did rush get 17 and 14 point leads on the road to have the d and DST blow the leads and lose in OT , no Rush could barely keep this team within a score in 20point game, get real , what delusional and clueless comment as if Rush couil have done anything against TB gam,e 1 with horrible game pan , first game with a rookie LT, McGovern's firta start at LG next to said rookie, and steel first start at RT and no cooper, tuner, ced, jarwin, collins, and gallup, or cwill and that the game plan pass happy zeke at 5.2 YPC in the first half and gets 2 carries in the 2nd half.,.that was the exact game plan from game 1 2021 , kind of obvious to TB d and they fed off that, issue is we didnt have all those players from game 1 2021

Rush would have got killed. that should have been run heavy game to ease this new offense into 2022 , ironic immediately rush comes in game 2 and forced Moore to run more..Dak had to get broken hand to wake up Moore and then what 9er game 16 runs bad play calls all that got him fired.


rush wouldn't have made it out of there 1st quarter in many games in the back half and dak found ways to win.. you even trying to make a comparison between the two make anything you say INVALID.

the league has spoken Brisset, Mayfeild and others back competing for starting roles, Rush not peep on whose coming to get him as BU let alone for a starers job. same as his entire career hes backup and a solid one not great one.

Inconsistent?? b2b 12 in season with playoffs, top 5 in wins since 16, td-int ratio 166 passing 26 rushing only 65 total INTs is very high, no losing seasons and 4 out of 6 season in the playoffs.. id say any inconsistency's can be found along the OL , run game, gameplans etc etc they all go hand in hand.

find the word team please go to the chalk board and write TEAM 500 times until you get that thruogh your troll minds. this is by far one of the best stretches our team has seen 2016 to now playing actual consistent ball, stats above say so stats say hes top 10 , Rush LMAO top 64 ..NEXT

got it Dak easily wins those 4 games rush did without doubt and most likely beats Philley as he does more then he doesn't,. rush is a career backup with little skills other then just doing enough while the team, is playing elite level ball which they WERE NOT most of the back half of the season. got that bud??

now go do your homework, TEAM play faltered, dak faltered with them, easy to see.
TB game-did rush play? did they play simultaneously.

so you know rush would have been better LMAO

nope and see the wrs weren't getting open, the oc abandons the run game and the game plan was horrible?? right, you are a total troll, dak hating sports imbecile.

Even a Cooper Rush thread morphs into the usual back-and-forth Dak Prescott nonsense.

:laugh:

So it comes down to comparing 40 million a year Dak to Rush?
Man, how much lower are you guys gonna go with Prescott?
Who's next Tim Tebow?:eek:

Agreed. Where are they?

This forum has gotten seriously dumbed down to even suggest that Cooper Rush is anywhere close to being as good as Dak...or that he should start over Dak.

Again - how does Cooper not getting signed make Dak look better?
It does not need to. All it does is highlight an obvious truth that everyone in the NFL knows: Cooper Rush is nowhere near the level of Dak and wins are not a QB stat. These same GMs have Dak as a top 10-12 QB. These very people do not seem to have Cooper Rush as a top 50 QB. This thread is about how wrong those people who though Rush was as good as Dak were.

simple fact

can u say 100% that the cowboys with cooper rush making $1M or what ever he got last year is worse then dak making 40x that

i cant!

i think cowboys would be a better team

im sure rush could put up 12 pts against 49ers and cost 40-50x less

When all people on here do is cry that Dak had no weapons yet the backup wins games with those same weapons, people don't see the irony?! lol. He's a backup QB who came in and won 4 games then the team imploded down the stretch and threw home field in the toilet. These threads trying to build up Dak Prescott are laughable. His play 7 years into a career should do that by now. The fact that we can even have this conversation on a yearly basis pretty much tells the story!
