While Dak Prescott said he anticipated a decision following today’s “launch” practice as to whether he or Cooper Rush starts, a source tells me that is now expected to be delayed to a game-time decision.

Sounds like he may have a rapport with Schultz from the backup units in practice


*sweating intensely*

I still think I trust Schultz more against the Vikings than Uzomah against the Jets.

Indianapolis Colts
@Colts

We have activated LB Jordan Glasgow from IR and DE Dayo Odeyingbo from the NFI list, and waived DT Khalil Davis and RB Jordan Wilkins.

Marlon Mack staying in Indy?

Assuming Dak isn’t playing would it be crazy to start Jeudy over Ceedee, ppr

I don't think I could bring myself to start a player coming off injury over a guy like Lamb.

Ebron is out so Friermuth may be a good start


Ebron hasn’t done much at all. Not sure it’s an automatic boost to Frier.

Just saw on ESPN ticker that Shepard and Toney are likely to play. I could plug in Beasley for SS but I feel like Shepard is has a much higher floor if he’s not injured and I have Engram just in case so I think I’ll leave Shepard in.

It would surprise many close to situation if Cowboys QB Dak Prescott (calf) starts Sunday vs. Vikings. Officially a game-day decision, but Cooper Rush saw most meaningful reps of week. Prescott was in Orange, TX, Friday following grandmother’s passing. He traveled with team today

Puts a bit of a damper on the idea of a shootout.

Juedy gonna be full go? Doubt it. Plus him Teddy Sutton Patrick have never been on the field together yet. Would like to see the distro with all of those guys on the field. I own juedy and I’m sitting this week to see what shakes out

Rush can throw it around the yard. Bet on volume and connecting on a few high value targets me thinks

Not that there was much of a question, but Chargers' RB Austin Ekeler -- who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game due to a hip injury -- confirmed to ESPN that he will play vs. the Patriots.

Rush can throw it


You a believer? I know nothing about him but see he’s got limited stats since 2017. Interesting that he’s stayed on, so Dallas sees something.

Conventional wisdom (often wrong) says don’t play the pass catchers outside of Lamb, heavy lean on the run game.

I’ve got Cooper, Woods and Mitchell in the flex, and keep switching them out. Need a boom game and currently have Cooper there. May flip to Mitchell.

TE’s are a backup QB’s best friend especially if the other team concentrates on stopping the run. I expect Schultz to have 6-7 catches, 50-60 yards, and 1 TD.

QB Dak Prescott (calf) is pushing to play tonight, and he'll go through his normal pregame warmup in hopes of getting the green light to start against the #Vikings, per sources. He’ll go full speed, throw to receivers ... then the organization will make the final call.

I really hope that he plays. I want them to break the damn scoreboard tonight.

Who are you trotting out?

I think I’m committing to Amari. Have to get this one right today between him and Mitchell.

With this Dak situation I’m guessing the smart move is to just sit him since it’s a late game, no?

My other options are Teddy and Wentz.

I just meant it appears he has the arm to make all the throws. Of course it’s preseason tape. With the cowboys I’d be more worried about him locking onto a specific guy
