The Cowboys won't make the playoffs this season, but they've won four of their past five games with Cooper Rush at quarterback.

Cooper Rush is making a good case to stay as Prescott's backup. If Rush can help pull an upset in either of the final two games at Philadelphia on Sunday or home against Washington, he'll have a winning record in three different seasons filling in for Dallas' injured star QB.

This season, Rush has thrown for 1,697 yards, 11 touchdowns, and just three interceptions in relief of Dak Prescott.

With Dak Prescott out for the season, Rush has gotten the audition to return in 2025 with six starts and three more to come.

The Atlanta Falcons received an early Christmas gift from the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday evening. After defeating the New York Giants, 34-7, the Falcons got to sit back and watch as the Tampa Bay Buccaneers were upset by the Cowboys in prime time.

Coming off the first three-touchdown game of his career last week against the Carolina Panthers, Rush threw an 11-yard strike to wide receiver Jalen Tolbert on the Cowboys' second

Cooper Rush and the Dallas offense seem to be rounding into form, although it is almost certainly a case of too little, too late for the Cowboys to make a playoff push.

Last time the Eagles saw Cooper Rush, he was a mess. In his first start after Dak Prescott suffered a season-ending torn hamstring, Rush managed only 45 passing yards in the Cowboys’ 34-6 loss to the Eagles at AT&T Stadium.
