If the Dallas Cowboys defense plays like it did Sunday, Cooper Rush just needs to be good enough.
Rush was good enough on Sunday for the Cowboys to get a huge win in their first game without Dak Prescott. Brett Maher hit a 50-yard field goal as time expired and the Cowboys beat the Cincinnati Bengals 20-17.
The Cowboys heard all week how they were in trouble without Prescott, who is out following thumb surgery. It wasn't quite that bad on Sunday.The Cowboys started very well. Noah Brown caught a 9-yard touchdown from Rush. After a Bengals field goal, Tony Pollard had a 46-yard run to the 1-yard line, then punched it in on the next play.
At that point the defense had done a great job to keep the team in the game. Once Cincinnati tied it, the offense had to do its part to get the win. Eventually, it did.The first drive for the Cowboys after Cincinnati tied it started well, with Rush hitting CeeDee Lamb for 24 yards. On the next play Ezekiel Elliott was dropped for a four-yard loss on a short catch.
