Here’s Why The Dallas Cowboys NEED To Start Trey Lance And Not Cooper Rush With Dak Prescott Hurt
Dallas Cowboys rumors today center on the Cowboys’ quarterback situation. Dak Prescott is going to miss several weeks with his hamstring injury, leaving a hole at the most important position on the roster. While Mike McCarthy has indicated the team will start Cooper Rush, and that does make some sense, Cowboys Report host Tom Downey is here to explain why Dallas is better off starting Trey Lance.

The Dak Prescott injury means Dak is going to miss time for the Dallas Cowboys and possibly the season. Here’s 5 reasons why the Cowboys should make the move to start Trey Lance and not Cooper Rush:
#1: Mystery Box
#2: Long-Term Benefits
#3: Running Game Upside
#4: Organizational Plan
#5: Sunk Cost Fallacy
Trey Lance might not be a very good NFL quarterback. But the Cowboys traded a 4th round pick because they thought there was potential for him. So why not see if he can prove himself and be worthy of a possible Comp Pick in 2025 NFL Free Agency or even the Cowboys’ backup QB job? And worse case, if he stinks, he’s a great Tank Commander.

A lot of members of this team (coaches, players and more) are not under contract in 2025. So Mike McCarthy and others are fighting for their jobs. But Is that more important than the big picture?

Do you want to play Trey Lance? Type ‘Y’ for Yes, ‘N’ for No

This season aint over yet people! Im not asking you not to believe your own eyes but lets keep looking a little longer,and see if these guys fome loaded for 🐻 and hope the eagles get chirpies.Its a Canaryial disease and untweetable😅😂
Lance should start. and I also think that Hunter Luepke should be given more opportunity to carry the ball more he could be a good running back.
Start lance maybe he will do what Dak did with romo be to good to put Dak back in. But they won’t 😅

Trey played with 3rd, 4th, 5th receivers in preseason. I know he missed some balls but he also made some throws.
This is how stupid Jerry Jones is Cooper Rush cost you know draft capital Trey Lance cost you draft capital play the kids see what he's got
Lance so in case of a complete let down cooper rush may be if great importance 😕only god knows 🙌🙌
I don't care who starts just get Dak out of Dallas because we've seen the best of Dak Prescott, honestly. There's nothing more Dak can do on the field to elevate the team with his play. Even if you see both Rush and Lance play terribly, Dak will come back whenever healthy and do the same things or worse – that's the bottom line.
The guy is one of the most gifted players on a sinking ship and he’s still sitting.
I hate to say it but our offensive line sucks, good luck rush
CR if you want to salvage done of the season still looking like a losing season do then let’s see some Trey Lance to see if he could go to another team or maybe he even beats Dak out like Dak did on Romo
start trey so he can lose every game and we can then draft the rb from boise state
Tray Lance give the kid the opportunity to shine
Yes,TL
If u thnk lance should start over Cooper then u dont no football yes lance can run but he sux at passing rush is a solid passer he did help n those games hes went 5-1 starting he beat out lance easy n preseason lance wasn't good its rushtime baby we mite actually start winning now im excited go cowboys!! Its still early we got a shot at a wild card rush has a chance to get paid here also keep n mind

You better read this because you're always wrong. Trey could save the season so don't act like it was a bad deal already. You obviously never played sports. Just because the all great 9ers trashed him, you wanna write him off. Look at Sam Darnold! The 9ers trashed him. Give Trey a couple years. You already know what you were getting out of Dak, a failure
Dallas needs to start Lance… becuz of his ability to run is a+…. then Dallas needs to run r offense like the RAVENS…
THAT would open up the running game… Mccarthy needs to make sure Lance Keeps offensive throws down to 15 to 23 ….
Dallas needs to do this the rest of the season…

Love the Family Guy reference at the beginning Tom 😂
If you start Trey Lance, that means you are using the remainder of the season for development. If you’re still looking to win games, you start Cooper Rush. I would say start Rush, but if we begin to get blown out, put in Trey Lance just so he can get the snaps.
Might be the best and last chance to
Let's go with trey lance

This decision is obvious. Trey has potential upside that requires risk to prove or disprove and this may be the only time we can afford that risk. It’s not about recovering this season, neither player is going to do that. This about uncovering hidden value and potentially redeeming something positive from an otherwise disastrous season. And if there’s nothing there we just end up with a better draft position.
NO NOT NOW, COOPER GIVES YOU THE BEST CHANCE TO WIN RIGHT NOW, ALSO COOPER HAS EARNED TO BE THE NO. 2 QB FOR NOW, AND IF HE DONT WORK OUT THEN T.LANCE ,ITS ONLY RIGHT,, IN RUSH WE TRUST RIGHT NOW, COWBOYS FOR LIFE PEACE
CR
Lance would be the smart play. Unfortunately, Jones has to continue the con by convincing the gullable ones, the majority of Cowboys fans, that the Cowboys are a contender and can still win the Superbowl. Therefore, Rush will start.

Trey lance
I'd let all the young guys/backups play and gain experience for next season or possible trade pieces
