“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 &quot;Super Rush&quot; 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:&quot;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?&quot;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:Please play better #WeBelieveWWWWWWWWWavericks@CMarkezinisRandy Moss was overrated anyways twitter.com/espnnfl/status…NFL on ESPN@ESPNNFLCooper Rush's success has the Sunday NFL Countdown crew heated on who should lead the Cowboys &quot;If [Cooper Rush] goes and wins this game tonight ... he can handle on the road, at home, whatever.

I like Rush, the guy threw for 106 vs the Rams. Had two INTs called back vs WASH. He’s a good BACKUP QB. These guys are so quick to forget that Dak lead Dallas to a 12-5 record last season. Pls stop.

But did you see him in this year's opener? In last year's playoff game? Unfortunately, I did.54247I'd like to say Dak Prescott would've won that game. But did you see him in this year's opener? In last year's playoff game? Unfortunately, I did.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.
