Cowboys' Cooper Rush Impresses NFL Fans in Blowout Win vs. Bryce Young, Panthers

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Cooper Rush put forth his best performance since taking over as the team's starter after Dak Prescott suffered a season-ending hamstring injury.

Rush threw for 214 yards, three touchdowns and no interceptions on 18-of-29 passing with a lost fumble to lead the Cowboys to a 30-14 road win over the Carolina Panthers at Bank of America Stadium on Sunday.

Rush had a strong connection with star receiver CeeDee Lamb throughout the game, as Lamb racked up nine catches for 116 yards and a touchdown. It's the wideout's first 100-yard game since Week 8 against the San Francisco 49ers on Oct. 27.

Dallas also had a stellar game on the ground, totaling 211 rushing yards in the victory. Rico Dowdle led the way with 149 yards on 25 carries.

But it was Rush was the talk of social media, as fans were impressed with his performance in the Cowboys' win:

Sunday's victory improved Dallas' record to 6-8, so the team isn't completely out of the playoff race yet. If Rush continues to perform at a high level, he would help put the team in a position to potentially steal a spot.

Rush and the Cowboys will try to keep the momentum going when they meet the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday Night Football in Week 16.
