5 Cowboys Bold Predictions for Week 3 vs. Cardinals

2. It's Another Cooper Rush Game

It's hard to find many negatives from our Week 2 win over the New York Jets, but one of the biggest in my eyes is that we didn't get to see Cooper Rush on the field.

We may not want Cooper Rush starting over Dak, but how can you argue with the results when he comes off the bench? In 2021, Dallas had wins of 43-3, 56-14 and 51-26 when Rush came off the bench. In 2022 we added another 40-3 win, and in 2023 we’re 1-0 with a +40 point differential when Rush comes in off the bench. He's clearly the secret sauce.

Obviously I'm kidding here. Rush comes into those games because we're already winning in a blowout, but that makes it a beautiful sight to see Rush put his helmet on all the same.

This week has all the makings of another blowout that earns Rush some playing time.
