Now Dallas is saying...

Now Dallas is saying there's no hurry to find a replacement for Kellen Moore. I still think they get a veteran backup QB before the season, but wow this speaks highly of Ya Boy.

Programming note .. First Cowboy preseason game is going to be broadcast by ESPN .. Sat Night, Aug. 13, 8 p.m. ET, 7 p.m. CT .. Dallas at Los Angeles

Looks like they may take a few days to decide if they need to sign a veteran QB.

Nick Eatman: Although I didn’t really see anything on this practice day to give me this opinion, something tells me there won’t be a veteran signed here at camp, and maybe not at all. Showers has gotten much better than last year and he will continue to improve with the added reps. Dak’s head might be spinning too much right now but he’ll calm down and process it much quicker. I just think we get to the preseason and those two guys will play well under the lights. My Aug. 4 opinion is that Showers and Prescott are the two backups on the Week 1 roster.

Rob Phillips: With Tony Romo taking a rest day, Thursday’s practice was the Dak Prescott and Jameill Showers Show. Thought we saw some good things from both players, as well as some things you expect from young quarterbacks: holding to the ball too long at times, not seeing things develop as quickly as needed. But Prescott showed good presence at the line of scrimmage, getting the offense into the right play. Showers has always shown poise in the pocket. Both were effective on the move and finding receivers over the middle. Sounds like both will get plenty of reps going forward as the Cowboys take a deliberate approach to finding a replacement for Kellen Moore. More snaps can only help them.

Veteran QBs are so familiar with NFL playbooks it's like plug and play. You don't have to have them in training camp for a long time for them to grasp the plays. This sounds more like Dallas wanting to really get some good reps for their rookies in the first week.

Tune in folks...he'll get a lot of playing time, possibly 1 1/2 to 2 quarters worth.

This feels Chuck Rounsaville reporting from the Dallas camp. They simply whiffed on Foles. Foles wanted to be with Andy Reid because he knows that system. No way they are more confident with Dak than a veteran (no matter how washed up he is).

I can't remember the last time I watched a preseason game. But I will certainly watch that one.
