Rush earned the win over the defending AFC champion Cincinnati Bengals last week and won his lone start last year against the Minnesota Vikings.

Prescott is a top quarterback in the league, but Jerry Jones would more than welcome a quarterback battle if Rush continues to win.

"Of course, I would (want that controversy). That means we had won," he said, via The Dallas Morning News. 

"Wouldn’t it be something if you had a dilemma as to which way you go? You do that if he gets 10 wins. Same thing that happened with Prescott. I think like that," Jones said, referencing when Prescott took Tony Romo's job.
