Rush leading Dallas well in Prescott s absence

Washington Commanders v Dallas Cowboys The 28-year-old has been a backup quarterback for the entirety of his career and has . Last year, he was thrust into the spotlight against the Minnesota Vikings and managed to pull out a victory on their home turf. This year, Rush has gotten a little more time in the hot seat and has shown up and shone out. He has won all three of his games and has 737 passing yards, four touchdowns and no interceptions. Rush also had QBR's of 95.5, 98.2 and 107.5 in those three games. Many thought the season was lost when Prescott went down with an injury, but Dallas has not faultered. In fact, they have gone the other way and improved to 3-1 on the season. The job of a backup quarterback is to keep the team afloat until the starter returns. Easier said than done, but Cooper Rush has done exactly that. Such has been his performance over the last three weeks, some sections of the Cowboys fanbase want him instilled permanently as the starter. That is something we all know will not happen, but if Rush keeps this up, he might not be a backup for much longer.
