Randy Moss had a hell of a statement on Sunday about the Dallas Cowboys and how they should strongly consider sticking with Rush if they beat the Eagles on Sunday evening.
Well, as we saw, that not only didn’t happen, but Rush tossed three interceptions on the night.
“If you go into Philadelphia and beat the No. 1 team in the National Football League, man I don’t want to hear no Dak Prescott talk,” Moss said on ESPN’s NFL Countdown. “If Cooper Rush goes and wins this game tonight that means he will have shown this team he can handle on the road, at home, whatever. So why are we going to look at Dak? Don’t put out that fire.”
Those words aged like milk just hours later.

Rush had a 4-0 record as the starter, but if this was final curtain call, it ended rather badly.
Prescott injured the thumb in the opener against the Bucs. He had surgery on September 12 and the original timeline had him missing six to eight weeks. Jerry Jones expressed some optimism that Prescott will be ready to play against the Lions next week.
“I don’t want to say, but he has made a lot of progress,” Jones said on 105.3 The Fan. “Throwing the ball with zip and (that’s) very, very important. How he is healing is just great. So all systems on go there.”
Prescott signed a lucrative extension prior to last season worth $160 million over four years. He threw for 4,449 yards, 37 touchdowns and 10 interceptions last year and the Cowboys finished the regular season 12-5.
