Baltimore is going to experience “Rush Hour”.
Cooper Rush, who has not practiced all week and is unlikely to be able to play against the Houston Texans on Sunday, is ready to lead a Ravens team that’s 1-3 and desperately in need of a victory.
Rush is used to this kind of pressure. Rush was the Dallas backup quarterback and has made 14 NFL starts.
Everywhere you go, there’s a feeling of ‘the sky is falling’ when a franchise quarterback goes down. Rush said on Friday that it’s “normal”.
We’ve seen this before. You can rely on the fact that it’s not a new situation. It gives you confidence, so just trust yourself and go for it.
Rush is calm and cool. It’s one of the reasons he has a 9-5 record over his nine year career.
All week long, his teammates and coaches expressed their confidence. Todd Monken, the offensive coordinator, called Rush “a consummate professional.” Mark Andrews, a tight end at the University of Washington, said that he is “a really good player” who knows “the offense extremely well.”
Monken believes he has devised an offensive game plan that will allow Rush to “be effective and efficient.”
Rush described the Ravens’ plan as “good” and said that the Ravens’ first-team reps were “crisp”.
Rush explained, “This is the goal for which you train and prepare.” Rush said, “It’s been great to have the entire week to go out and actually practice it.”
Rush is not going to hand the ball to Monken.
Rush’s throws were the fastest in the NFL last season (2.55 seconds), and the least yards per attempt (6.) according to NextGenStats. He’s shown throughout his career that he can be aggressive. Baltimore has a lot of weapons to take on the Texans’ defense.
“The Cooper Game, that’s all he does.” John Harbaugh, Head Coach of the Michigan State University football team said: “I think he is really good at this.” He has to play the way he does within the offense. He knows the offensive, and we are ready to go.”
