Cruzer 1,995 Posted August 22, 2017 In maybe the biggest hush, hush move of the year - Carson Wentz appears to be competing for the Cowboys' backup QB spot. To protect his identity - he's playing under the name Cooper Rush, out of Central Michigan. https://uproxx.files.wordpress.com/2017/05/carson-wentz-feat-uproxx.jpg?quality=100&w=650 http://www.footballfoundation.org/Portals/7/CooperRush-Headshot_crop.jpg 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cruzer 1,995 Posted August 22, 2017 Love me some RUSH!!! please Cowboys I beg of you......drop Moore & McClown and don't look back! K. Moore is listed at 6', which means he's prolly 5'11" (maybe)..

5-Points 3,398 Posted August 23, 2017 What a downgrade that would be for the cowboys. like Brady to Brisett Wentz, as a backup, would be fine. He ain't a starter in the big D. We have standards. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NewbieJr 541 Posted August 23, 2017 Wentz, as a backup, would be fine. He ain't a starter in the big D. We have standards.lol. Keep dreaming. Zak is A 4th round pick for a reason. He was thrown behind the best line in football with a stud running back who took away all the attention. 20 quarterbacks in the NFL could have had just the same year as Zack Prescott did. He's good. In a division full of good young QBs (plus one good old one). Zak is 4th out of the four. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We (Not me) wanted him. 6'5", strong arm, JG coached and approved. Should have been a great fit. On paper. In reality, Dak panned out, Wentz hasn't. Yet. Looking forward to the next decade or two.

In reality, Dak panned out, Wentz hasn't. Yet. Looking forward to the next decade or two. he looked great last year. Very fine rookie year with zero talent around him. Had no good receivers, no running game, and lost their best lineman for most of the year for a PED suspension. There is absolutely no one in the Eagles organization or fan base who isn't thrilled to have him as our quarterback. And definitely would not trade him for Dak Prescott.

Finally gave him a few receivers. And hopefully Lane Johnson can keep the needle out of his ass long enough to actually play the whole year up front. Still no running game though. I'd like to see another win or two over last year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hardcore troubadour 14,961 Posted August 23, 2017 What's the local buzz on OBJ, is there really concerns of missing Week 1? Can't tell with him. He's waiting on a new contract, so he might be throwing a scare into them, plus he doesn't have to play anymore preseason. Might be a business decision. He's a head case, as we all know. I doubt they would say he's not playing. Game time desision. But wtf does anyone know with him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
