"This year without DP under center, the Cowboys only scored over 20 points one time without DP in the lineup". Really, am I reading that right?

Dallas 23 - Giants 16
Dallas 25 - Wash 10
Dallas 22 - Rams 10

I get most of the article writers here love to pump up DP, it's part of the hype machine, but why the need to disrespect Rush, who may have SAVED the season. And BTW, the Bears are not a good team. Their RUN DEFENSE ranks 31st, next to last in the league. TP ran all over them, and that was a big part of this win.

DP played well, give him credit, and he does run better. But he had 250 passing yards, which is not very dissimilar to a CR "game manager" type performance.

And DP's first game of the year, vs Bucs:
134 passing yards, 0 TDs, 1 Int. and 3 points.
