Cowboys QB Cooper Rush stayed perfect as a fill-in replacement for injured Dak Prescott, but it was the defense that carried the day in a 22-10 win against the Rams.
Yet he had plenty of help: A fumble returned 19 yards for a touchdown by defensive end DeMarcus Lawrence and a blocked punt by defensive end Dorance Armstrong that led to a field goal gave the Cowboys an early 9-0 lead. Running back Tony Pollard ripped off a 57-yard touchdown run. Brett Maher booted three field goals.
An unrelenting rash of injuries has forced LA to roll with a different starting O-line combination in each of its five games this season. On Sunday, that meant first-year pro Jeremiah Kolone got the nod at center as Coleman Shelton was placed on IR. This constant shuffling was undoubtedly one factor in the duress quarterback Matthew Stafford often found himself facing and in the assortment of negative-yardage rushing plays that plagued running back Cam Akers.
