“Randy Moss was overrated anyway”, “Fire every single person involved” – NFL fans blast ESPN analysts for Cooper Rush hype after Dak Prescott-less Cowboys’ defeat to Eagles

Dak Prescott was once again unavailable to play for the Dallas Cowboys against the Philadelphia Eagles due to this thumb injury.

And, as fate would have it, backup quarterback Cooper Rush, who was on a five-game winning streak as the Cowboys' starting quarterback, finally lost a game.

The Philadelphia Eagles won the game 26-20 in Week 6 and Rush had arguably the most dire performance of his career.

After all the hype about "Super Rush" from various analysts and endless debates about how he's seemingly an upgrade over Prescott, Cooper Rush threw three interceptions in what might have been his last start of the season.

Prior to the game, former New England Patriots receiver Randy Moss raved about Cooper Rush and argued that if he won against the Eagles, why would the Cowboys need Dak Prescott?

Here's what Moss said:

"If [Cooper Rush] goes and wins this game tonight ... he can handle on the road, at home, whatever. Why are we gonna look at Dak?"

Following the loss to the Eagles and a poor performance from Cooper Rush, NFL fans trolled ESPN analysts who were stating Rush is better than Prescott.

Here's what social media had to say:

It appears the Cooper Rush hype train has come to a grinding halt after Week 6, with the Cowboys falling to the Eagles, who now have a spotless 6-0 record to start the season.

Dak Prescott expected to return in Week 7 vs Detroit Lions

Dallas Cowboys v Philadelphia Eagles

Dak Prescott is expected to start for the Dallas Cowboys next week when they face the Detroit Lions.

Throughout the week in the buildup to face the Eagles, there was a possibility that Prescott could play, but the franchise opted to be patient, especially against an in-form Eagles team.

Against the Lions, Prescott will have a great opportunity to showcase his talent and settle any possible quarterback controversy in Arlington.

Moreover, due to a poor performance by Cooper Rush against the Eagles, the pressure will now be much less on Prescott than it would have been if Rush had inspired the Cowboys to a win over the Eagles.

The ball's now in Prescott's hands as he gears up for his return next week.
