00:00Last week, Tom, 205 and a half, Cooper Rush's number, didn't even come close to that by

00:07a couple hundred yards.

00:09He's now in that Justin Fields territory at 173 and a half, CJ Stroud, 239 and a half.

00:15And check this out, Cooper Rush, typically the worst quarterbacks have a half of a number

00:19that pops up, but they're usually north of minus 200 or higher.

00:22Cooper Rush to throw one touchdown pass, a paltry minus 168, CJ Stroud over one and a

00:28half at a minus 114.

00:29I know we talk a lot about CJ Stroud.

00:31The expectations for Cooper Rush are rock bottom.

00:34Can he get through these numbers?

00:36He can get through these numbers if he actually starts off looking good and maintains that

00:41because we do have to factor in that, like, Trey Lance could come in again, right?

00:46Like, you know, looking back at Cooper Rush's game log over the past few years when he started,

00:49like, yeah, there are some games when he goes for like 220 yards, somewhere around there.

00:53Like, that's if they get the offense moving early.

00:55If there's any point, especially if he starts off slow, three and outs, they're just not

00:59moving the ball.

01:00Like, there's a chance that we see literally every under on Cooper Rush hit under on attempts,

01:05completions, yards, et cetera, et cetera.

01:07We see him throw a pick.

01:08They may just bring in Trey Lance.

01:10Like, that is a very realistic outcome tonight.

01:12So I ultimately want no part of going to any Cooper Rush props.

01:16Like, I just don't want to do that.

01:17I'm not trusting the Cowboys.

01:18I barely trust them to begin with.

01:20I'm not going to be trusting Cooper Rush.

01:21I think CJ Stroud is super interesting because a part of me wants to take under on his attempts

01:25tonight.

01:26Because again, they want to reel things in tonight.

01:27They want to get back to what works.

01:29That's Joe Mixon having 20 plus parries tonight.

01:31Like, CJ Stroud could be very effective tonight.

01:34Actually, it's not effective, but efficient tonight.

01:36Like, they want him to move the ball, let's pick up some first downs, let's get Nico Collins

01:39back involved.

01:40And that may mean under on his yards, under on his attempts, because they're not going

01:44to be, you know, looking to have him sling the ball after, you know, last Sunday's performance.
