Brooks' 15-yard touchdown at Carolina had a completion probability of only 11%

Best play from Cooper Rush all game.

oh

When I saw that play in real time, I didn't think he caught the ball. Glad I was wrong!

Best play from Cooper Rush all game.

That was actually really quality from both Brooks and Rush. Well done.

 

[gtb1943]

The line gave him some time and he bought more with his legs and made a throw that meant only the WR had a shot at it.

EXCELLENT PLAY

 

[OGSixshooter]

He threw a side arm slider that moved away from the defense. Luck? Skill? Both?

 

[The Quest for Six]

Only 11% due to the quarterback throwing the ball has a noodle arm

 

[Doomsday]

Considering how inaccurate Rush is on the move 11% seems generous. It was a well designed play and a great throw and catch.

Best play from Cooper Rush all game.

actually, this wasn't a very good throw. any competent defender would have either intercepted or knocked it down. it was into double coverage with one defender in front and one trailing.
but I take luck over good anyday of the week.

Great throw by coop. I been saying he's been making some good throws and one of my fans asked for proof..I'm like really?

Well there it is.

Who was that masked QB?

As one of the broadcasters said, it might have been Rush's best throw of the year. He's not a quarterback who can put enough on the ball or place it well on the run.

He threw it to a spot where only his receiver could catch it. He throws that shorter or flatter and the front defender knocks it down or intercepts it. He throws it behind the receiver and the trailing defender catches up and knocks it away. If he throws it wider or deeper, it's caught out of bounds at best.

I can understand not carrying for Rush, but that was a very good throw. The TD he had earlier to Lamb was a poor throw that Lamb made a great adjustment to, making sure to get his hands under it before hitting the ground.

The only thing that separates an improbable great play from a stupid improbable crappy play is the success (or lack of success) of the play.

Well said. Although I've lost faith in Rayne ever delivering playoff sucess here, i don't hesitate to give him his props on a great throw or great game.

Elite throw from a non elite qb in this particular case.

Best play from a Cowboys QB all season

 

[charron]

Man the kid still gets hate even though he made a good throw, on the move, with a defender in his face for a TD! I know the guy doesn't have the strongest arm but he did just toss 3 TD's in the game.

it was a good throw, but a better defensive team and that throw had a greater chance of being intercepted. you can take those type of risks against lesser teams like Panthers.
