OMG Cooper Rush is better than Josh Allen.

OMG Cooper Rush is better than Josh Allen.

Looks like he knows how to better avoid the blitz. Ill take Allen though even if he's running for his life half the game.

Massive drop off after 4.

 

[Surfguy]

Are we saying Rush is better at handling the blitz than Dak? It's kind of a small sample size for Rush. lol

Yeah. I almost decided not to post it.

Oh now Josh Allen has a bad oline lol. The Joe Burrow excuse.

Most of those guys are good at using their feet. Says a lot about Rush, because he's not a runner.

OMG Cooper Rush is better than Josh Allen.

He’s not better than Lamar?

Everything is always getting twisted.

Rush has the third highest QB rating this year after 3 games against the blitz in the NFL.

That's what it says.

It doesn't say he is better than any QB on that list, or any other QB in the NFL.

Rush is the future face of the NFL. Rodgers and Mahomes better be expecting State Farm to drop their sponsorships soon.

A blitz plays into Cooper's strengths. Not a great arm, but seems to have a great head. Makes accurate reads and keeps cool under pressure. Blitzing just thins out coverage, giving him more room to fit in the ball.

I mean that is more than kind of clear by reading it. First, it says "Vs. The Blitz". Second, there is no way all five quarterbacks on the list would be 2022 players if it was anything more than just against the blitz this year (in other words all-time or whatnot) which coincidentally is three games old.

Naw…but he is better than Dak.

I knew it. Extend him now!

For immobile Cooper Rush not getting sacked a single time against the Giants and just 1 time against the Bengals is a sign of excellent pass protection by the Oline more than it is Cooper Rush being able to beat the blitz.

Rush did a great job of recognizing where pressure was coming from pre snap, making adjustments, and getting the ball out to the right player. This is one very noticable difference between Rush and Dak.

You don't think a quick read, quick decision and a quick release have anything to do with success against the blitz?
