Dallas dropped to 3-5 this season after a tough 27-21 loss to the\u00a0Atlanta Falcons\u00a0at Mercedes-Benz Stadium on Sunday afternoon. Prescott, 31, exited the game in the second half with a hamstring injury, sidelining him for several upcoming weeks. With this setback, the Cowboys will face the\u00a0Philadelphia Eagles\u00a0on Sunday and likely the Houston Texans the following week without Prescott.<\/span><\/p>\n

Cooper Rush Will Be The Starter Moving Forward<\/h2>\n

Jun 4, 2024; Frisco, TX, USA; Dallas Cowboys quarterback Cooper Rush (10) talks to quarterback Dak Prescott (4) during practice at the Ford Center at the Star Training Facility in Frisco, Texas. Mandatory Credit: Tim Heitman-USA TODAY Sports<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

On Monday, head coach Mike McCarthy confirmed that Cooper Rush will take over as the starting quarterback in Prescott\u2019s absence. Rush, 30, stepped in for Prescott against the Falcons and has been with the Cowboys since 2017. Last season, he made five starts while Prescott was injured, achieving a 4-1 record. During that time, Rush threw for 1,051 yards and five touchdowns, helping the Cowboys secure crucial wins, including an away victory against the Vikings and a home triumph over the Eagles.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s unclear how long Prescott will be out. Prescott is being sent to the IR so he will be missing some considerable time, and by the time he gets back Dallas may be 4-8 and already be out of the running for the playoffs:<\/span><\/p>\n

Mike McCarthy confirms Cowboys will be without QB Dak Prescott vs. Eagles this week. Cooper Rush to start.<\/p>\n

“We\u2019re obviously still evaluating,” McCarthy said. “We have some information.”<\/p>\n

More conversations with doctors will determine exact plan for Dak’s hamstring.\u00a0pic.twitter.com\/ZndrgVAOPB<\/p>\n

While Rush is probably the better decision for the team and to win games, most fans want some more excitement with the team already in shambles.<\/p>\n

NFL and Cowboys fans all want Trey to start though, as they feel he has more to give than Cooper. While the Cowboys season is effectively over, fans wish for some excitement and to put Lance in instead:<\/p>\n

\u201cTime for the Trey Lance experiment to fully begin,\u201d a\u00a0fan wrote.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Cowboys should just play Trey Lance during Dak Prescott\u2019s absence to at least see what they have there,\u201d\u00a0The GameDay\u2019s\u00a0 Frank Ammirante\u00a0said.<\/p>\n

\u201cTrey Lance has started four NFL games in his career. If Cowboys don\u2019t give him a look it\u2019s ridiculous,\u201d\u00a0Bleacher Report\u2019s Sean Jordan said.<\/p>\n

\u201cJust play Trey Lance at this point,\u201d a\u00a0Cowboys fan\u00a0urged. \u201cSee what the kid has and enjoy the tank if he doesn\u2019t have it.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cHonestly the Cowboys are fools if they don\u2019t play Trey Lance at this point (all due respect to Cooper Rush),\u201d\u00a0Blogging the Boys\u00a0claimed. \u201cThey traded for him. This is an actual and literal chance to see what he has. In a contract year. What do they have to lose at this point?\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

It has really been a season to forget for this team and they will probably be looking at some major changes at the end of the year. They will almost certainly be changing the guard at coach and they will need to make much more changes than that if they want to compete in the future.<\/p>\n
