The Big Lead
Cooper Rush surprised everybody this past Sunday, completing 19 of 31 passes for 235 yards and a touchdown in his second NFL start. More importantly, he led the Dallas Cowboys to their first victory on the year and inspired hope that all is not lost with Dak Prescott sidelined for at least another month.
Rush's quality play has led to the predictable spate of overreactions. Like if the Cowboys now have a QB controversy between Rush and Prescott. Prescott looked horrible, as did the rest of Dallas' offense, in Week 1. Some onscreen pundits wondered if the team played better due to the presence of Rush.
