I FOUND IT!!!  For anyone who comes across this problem and has a similar looking log as mine, disable the setting in Rage that turns off the loading screen thingy.  I think the setting is called disable custom loading screen, and it turns off the screen that shows you what plugins are loading.  It has a bug where it sends a double command line for that command, and that causes the crash.  I'm so mad that it was so simple!!!  My thought process was that since I could load into the game when stopping Rage from hooking to DX, if I limited the amount of Rage on screen it would not crash.  So I turned on that setting, and it messed everything up.
 
This was found with help at this forum post, I can't take credit since I woulda never thought that an actual Rage setting would be causing such crashes

HAPPY TO SAY, AT 2:40 EST (my time zone) I FOUND A FIX.  It has nothing to do with the contract update, it was my plugins, I don't know which one did it yet because I literally just found this out, but I read one of the pinned support posts, and thought, "Why not" and slapped my plugins folder onto my desktop, being sure to leave LSPDFR stuff after forgetting to do that the first time.  With just LSPDFR in there it works great, it doesn't crash on duty, and I spawned in doing a traffic stop and I was able to finish said traffic stop, and walk back to my car for the first time.  Will send more updates in the near future, just had to get this out there for the night owls that may be scrolling through forums with the same problem.
 
Addition:  I also think it may have something to do with me using 7zip, and I didn't "extract here" when I installed my plugins, so stay tuned, will inform.
