00:00You know, I don't know. I mean, it took the Cowboys all season long to wake up, I guess.

00:06I'm having a hard time figuring this thing out. Why Dallas decided to play their best

00:11football without their quarterback in Dak Prescott. And the one thing that I say a lot

00:16here on the show, Matt, is that I'm a firm believer in there are few, if not no good

00:23backup quarterbacks in the National Football League. And I think I'm going to give a little

00:26caveat to this Cooper rush, because I think that this guy has earned himself a chance

00:31to go on, you know, like some bad team and maybe compete for a job or something like

00:35that. This guy rush is not bad. Yeah, and we've seen it before from him where he's had

00:40good stretches in the past, filling in and it was a little bit of a rocky start this

00:45year when he took over for Dak Prescott, but he, you know, eventually seemed to get his

00:49legs under him. And it's a shame that they're out of the playoff race. Well, I actually

00:53probably most people wouldn't agree with that, but it seems like they are playing good

00:57ball right now. And it would be nice to see them continue with a little more on the line

01:02in these last couple of games. But yeah, he's like, he's a solid, I think all around quarterback.

01:07Certainly a highly sought after backup, if nothing else. And given the turnover, we're

01:11probably going to see this off season. It's not a deep class draft class, at least for,

01:18you know, immediate impact starters. It doesn't look like I could see him getting a chance

01:22somewhere being that bridge quarterback for a team that misses out on maybe the big free

01:27agent and doesn't have a pick high enough to, to get one of the top guys in the draft

01:31and he'll get a shot and we'll see what he can do. But you know, the Cowboys have two

01:36guys like that and Trey Lance too, who still hasn't really gotten a shot yet. And it'll

01:40be interesting to see what happens with him this summer as well.
