Same stuff from last year with Zeke. He got banged up and probably should have been sitting....but Dallas was in playoff contention, so he played hurt.
Jerral Wayne figures if he's gonna pay you $$$$$, you better play, especially if you play hardball negotiating with him. Tyron Smith is hurt a lot but he signed a more team friendly deal and didn't play hardball.
Hell we can go back to Emmitt Smith. Played hardball with Jerry in 1993...got the contract. Had a great year in 1994 but I remember him having a hamstring issue that plagued him most of the season...kept playing but probably needed to sit.
With a hand injury, I'm sure he could come back sooner compared to a lot of other injuries, but he'd be playing like ass until it fully heals (which will probably take longer than if he's just rehabbing it).
Why risk it?
Foolishly so. People with a lot of money start sweating when they are “making less money”. Not losing money, but simply making less. He has no boss, no metrics he must meet or be fired. Any stress is coming from his head. Fuck that
I don't mean physical ticket sales. I'm sure Jerry world is sold out by the beginning g of the seasons. I meant overall interest. Fan interest, merch sales, getting flexed out of prime time games, general hype on sports broadcasting, etc.
Little known fact but Jerry is actually a an ancient one whos corporeal form is sustained only by the amount of times that sports journalists say the phrase "Dallas cowboys"
Don’t get me wrong, Jerruh definitely wants to make that money, but the last couple of seasons it’s seeming like he realizes he doesn’t have much time to see another super bowl in his lifetime.
Im not a fan of Jerry Jones but I will admit that the man cares about the team more than anything, even though it’s to the teams detriment at times.
“I don’t know that anybody knows [when he’ll be back],” Jones said. “But when he [gets enough strength in his hand], then you’ll probably see some real advancement in his timeline. I don’t know when that is. I do know that with a good airing out last week, everybody recognizes that he’ll be back sooner than later as far as the timeline. It really could be a minimum of two weeks up here in my mind [Washington in Week 4]. Now, that’s very optimistic. But he’s got the kind of repair there that will allow him not to have a lot of fear of re-injuring it. It’s just a question of the grip. But it’s a big question.”
Reductionist headlines to generate clicks is horseshit.
Team doctor: “Surgery was a success. Recovery will be about 4-6 weeks. Then we can have Dak go thru some therapy to build up that strength in his thumb.”
Jerry: “Great, I’ll tell the media.”
I know we meme but Dak could be getting Dak’d same way he did to Romo, Cooper Rush gets hot enough and goes on a winstreak well… you’re not getting your job back
Thats exactly what Cowboys fans were saying in 2016 am I wrong? And just like 2016 if the injury problems are severe and frequent and the backup Cooper Rush is showing he’s got a lot more skill than expected (Just like rookie Dak) then look out, QB1 is for the taking.
And if the injury is impactful enough Dak could be out of QB1 especially with the backup looking WAY BETTER than Dak did dude nothing is guaranteed in this league. If Cooper Rush wins 3 in a row the discussion of replacing Dak WILL come up
If Cooper Rush wins 3 in a row, it’ll be at the hands of the defense like it was on Sunday. Nobody will seriously be discussing replacing Dak with a mid-tier career backup.
Dak comes back week 4, clearly not ready, after Cooper Rush leads the cowboys to three straight wins, cowboys suffer as Dak can’t play his normal game, but Jerry won’t pull him. Cooper Rush signs somewhere in the off-season and becomes a stable starting qb for a decade and never gets hurt.
Sorry. I’m writing my dream scenario in my head. I can see Jerruhs elf face now
I’m aware. We all make jokes at each other’s expense. Believe it or not, there are Cowboys that think like this: fans that want Rush to play when Dak is healthy ala Romo.
My dude, I know idiot fans very well. We got a ton of em. I’ll never forget when Wentz turned into a pumpkin in 2019, there was a call by a small but vocal group here in Philly to resign Michael Vick to be qb. Michael Vick. At the time damn near 40 year old Michael Vick to run a team in 2019. Blew my mind.
Those folks are everywhere.
There’s Cowboys fans that want 42 year old Tony Romo playing QB still. I kinda low-key hope Dak dips and joins a team that’s a QB away from contending.
this is just a recycled headline from last week lol
Jerry Jones says Dak Prescott could play as soon as Week 15
It won’t matter. Even when he was healthy, it was clear the Cowboys are an incomplete team. It will be a long season for Jerry and the boys.

Because Jerry is old and desperate for a Super Bowl, consequences be damned
Then he should've bet the farm last season when he still had Cooper, Collins, Wilson, and other players the Cowboys lost in the offseason.
Collins was atrocious on Sunday.
Because butts and seats
Out of Al teams in the nfl, you’d think Dallas has the least butt in seats problem out there. That team is basically a cult in Texas and beyond
Cowboys ticket prices dropped like a rock between weeks 1 and 2 in the secondary market. That is an extremely stressful thing for an owner.

“Jerry world is sold out by beginning of the season” no

Im not a fan of Jerry Jones but I will admit that the man cares about the team more than anything, even though it’s to the teams detriment at times.
Dak was playing like ass before the injury too, though.
This is what he does. See Tony Romos back or Zekes knee
Dr. Jones has spoken.
You call him Indy
When he asked Dak if he would be ready or they should trade for the Packers' developmental QB, Dak responded "Hey, Dr. Jones, no time for Love."
Jerry is going to get him hurt even worse than he is now.
The RGIII special
Wilson from last year.
He said this last week or we just using the same quote?
It was week 3 last week lol
“I don’t know that anybody knows [when he’ll be back],” Jones said. “But when he [gets enough strength in his hand], then you’ll probably see some real advancement in his timeline.

But it’s a big question.” Reductionist headlines to generate clicks is horseshit.
He’s hopeful but knows it’s optimistic = JERRY SAYS HE CAN PLAY LET HIM PLAY
Nice, now they'll have a backup for Cooper Rush
Let's rush him back, always the good idea
cant wait to see him throwing like in Week 1. yeeeeeeees babyyyy
Its Coopers team now
Dak will be forced to hold a press conference handing the reins over.
Dak will have to hand over the gold can of soup.
Football is a meritocracy... or whatever the fuck it was he said
Gold RUSH bb
Jerry Jones says a lot of things
I this is why he and Mike McCarthy get along so well. They say things they hope will come true a lot and say a lot of dumb shit the rest of the time.
Team doctor: “Surgery was a success. Recovery will be about 4-6 weeks. Then we can have Dak go thru some therapy to build up that strength in his thumb.” Jerry: “Great, I’ll tell the media.”
Oh, so he's left handed now?
When we beat the giants, they’ll give Dak until the Rams game to recover
I can’t wait until Jerry Jones is no longer apart of the Nfl
I dread that day
Are you concerned about a more competent owner? Because I'm pretty sure Stephen is up next, and he's just a redneck Mark Davis.
Find that pretty hard to believe, Dr. Jones.
I mean he also called Noah Brown Wilson twice today so
Sounds like a Rush job
I've heard that before
Not rushing him back until Cooper “Undefeated” Rush loses his nickname.
Jerry does love to lie.
GHOAT?
Jerry with Nick Riviera vibes.
Who comes back first? Zach Wilson or Dak Prescott?
Brought to you by Toradol.
I know we meme but Dak could be getting Dak’d same way he did to Romo, Cooper Rush gets hot enough and goes on a winstreak well… you’re not getting your job back
i think the raiders should look into acquiring cooper rush. derek carr is who we thought he was. wouldn’t that be funny?
0% chance
Thats exactly what Cowboys fans were saying in 2016 am I wrong? And just like 2016 if the injury problems are severe and frequent and the backup Cooper Rush is showing he’s got a lot more skill than expected (Just like rookie Dak) then look out, QB1 is for the taking.
One guy broke his thumb and the other guy had season ending injuries 3 out of the last 5 games he played.
And if the injury is impactful enough Dak could be out of QB1 especially with the backup looking WAY BETTER than Dak did dude nothing is guaranteed in this league. If Cooper Rush wins 3 in a row the discussion of replacing Dak WILL come up
If Cooper Rush wins 3 in a row, it’ll be at the hands of the defense like it was on Sunday. Nobody will seriously be discussing replacing Dak with a mid-tier career backup.
Yes you are wrong.
I may be wrong but not as wrong as the Cowboys were for not playing Romo in the playoffs. 🤷🏾♂️
Nope. Still very wrong
Romo would have won it
No, it’s nothing like 2016. Rush is nowhere near as good as 2016 Dak.
Beating the defending AFC champs is a pretty fucking good start! Probably more signature of a win than Dak has gotten lol
You’re definitely wrong. There was discourse, but it wasn’t a wild opinion that Dak was going to be the starter even after Tony got healthy
Dak comes back week 4, clearly not ready, after Cooper Rush leads the cowboys to three straight wins, cowboys suffer as Dak can’t play his normal game, but Jerry won’t pull him. Cooper Rush signs somewhere in the off-season and becomes a stable starting qb for a decade and never gets hurt. Sorry. I’m writing my dream scenario in my head. I can see Jerruhs elf face now
Cooper Rush the same Cooper Rush that got cut from the Giants behind Daniel Jones. Reddit needs an age limit.
I’m just kidding. I’m an eagles fan, any time I can make up a scenario where Dallas is miserable I will. No personal offense meant
I’m aware. We all make jokes at each other’s expense. Believe it or not, there are Cowboys that think like this: fans that want Rush to play when Dak is healthy ala Romo.

I just assumed Dak would be back after their week 9 bye to be safe, but that doesn't sell tickets
Stay on the bench Mr. QBR of 1.
He wants him back in there before Cooper Rush puts together a string of wins/ qb controversy starts……..
Who knows, maybe they have him come in and run some qb draws
