Good luck to the Nooch tomorrow night. I hope we don’t see the bad Nooch. At the end of last week Dallas waived the white flag and just had him handing off at the end of the game after he took 3 sacks in 7 passing drop backs. This isn’t FCS and he has about 2.5 seconds to throw or take off. Any indecision will render him a sitting duck.

His strongest asset is running the ball in scramble mode. Will McCarthy allow him to play that way considering his first 2 QBs both got injured running the ball? Maybe he will since Dalton is scheduled to come back next week. Let him run and if he gets hurt he gets hurt. Asking the Nooch to be a drop back NFL passer probably won’t end well and the Cowboys are desperate for a win.
A heavy dose of Zeke running the ball will be the best possible situation for the Nooch to have some success on play action Passes.

It will be fun to watch all the mentions JMU gets Pregame and during the game. If Gardner Minshew can find some success in the NFL then the Nooch can even if it is by the injury route. The same Minshew that got benched in the first half against JMU because he was so bad somehow has survived 2 years as Jacksonville’s starting QB.

Success will be zero INTs and zero fumbles even if the Nooch only completes 50% of his passes and they are all short stuff. Just don’t lose the game single handedly.
