It feels like ages ago, but you really only have to go back two weeks to find when the general sentiment around the Cowboys was that it was already time to think about who to spend that top five draft pick on.
Yet here the Cowboys stand, having won two in a row since losing Dak Prescott. First, they upset the reigning AFC champion Bengals; then, they handed the Giants their first loss of the season. Now, Dallas is 2-1 and 1-0 in the division. All with Cooper Rush at quarterback.
Obviously, rattling off back-to-back wins with a backup quarterback is a feat that requires a whole lot of things to go right, and it’s unquestionably a team effort that’s gotten the Cowboys to this point.
