Cowboys vs. Vikings Week 8 Highlights | NFL 2021 

Seeing how happy Cooper Rushs' Dad was really warmed my heart. He was so happy for his son and you could see it.

The last minute touchdown throw to Cooper was awesome, but Elliot made the play of the game by literally running over four Vikings players to get the 1st down. That dude got himself back in shape. I haven't seen him run this strong since 2016.

Cedric wilson throwing that prefect spiral while on the run was amazing.

Seeing Cooper Rush’s dad react after the win was my favorite part of the game.

Props to Elliott for that extra effort on that final drive. They would’ve had to settle for the game-tying FG instead of the win.

They made the right call sitting Dak..Got the win and gave Dak an extra week to heal, midas saved the whole season with this decision.

I imagine Stephen A. Smith, was going into the game laughing and rubbing his hands like Birdman, thinking Cowboys would lose. Then he saw Cooper to Cooper for the Win and shat himself.

how great of a throw Wilson had

Honestly impressed with Dallas this year. Much better at handling adversity. The cowboys of old would’ve lost this game and the one against the pats.

That double pass was so clean. He threw that on that run with a PERFECT spiral and it was right to Lamb. That's a better throw than some backups could do lol

This team just has each other’s backs and feels like they can win no matter what.

Cooper Rush was obviously either scared or too amped up at the beginning of the game based on his pocket presence. But as the game went on he showed a lot of poise and threw the game winner on the road in front of his family. Awesome W.

Cooper Rush’s family being so happy to see him play was what did it for me 🥺

So so impressed with this Dallas Cowboys football team even without Dak Prescott tonight , they still find a way to pull with a gutsy win , and props to Cooper Rush , been a backup QB for a while now and finally got his number called for him , he was big time

Thank you Dallas, you have made another compelling argument for firing Zimmer into the sun.

Fills me with so much joy to see Cooper Rush’s dad so happy and proud. What a incredible moment that has to be. ❤️

I’m actually super impressed with Cooper Rush. Made some HUGE throws and the kids got a sweet arm for a backup.

Had to come see this before this Sunday vs bengals game

The Most underrated part is @10:35 where Xavier Woods sack Cooper Rush softer than he had to. He could’ve knocked the wind out of him, he just wanted to make a play instead of hurt his former teammate. That’s awesome.

MVP of this game is Cooper Rush's dad. We couldn't have done it without him.

Cooper Rush’s performance brought tears to my eyes, this team’s performance as a whole impressed me so much, overcoming the early adversity of the opening drive TD by the Vikes and the missed FG, and Rush with ice in his veins leading that 2 min. drill for the game winner to Amari. Cooper to Cooper!! I tell you, I feel like I just witnessed a piece of history, something that will be remembered for a long, long time, especially if Dallas goes on a SB run. Thank you, Cooper Rush, thank you for proving me wrong about you. Tonight belongs to you and your teammates. What a game.

McCarthy's coaching was on full display. Coached Gregory and that guy that was offside on the punt. Talking to your players earns respect. Good ass win 💪🏽

Dallas is playing some great football this year. As a 49ers fan I'm highly impressed.

In back to back seasons we have lost to DAL backup QB, ngl it’s embarrassing. Great game by the Cowboys best of luck this year.

Cooper Rush’s dads reaction at the end was so pure. So proud of his boy! And I’m beyond proud of the Cowboys! They may have came into this game as the underdogs but they didn’t let that stop them from giving their all, and pulling in the win!!

Yo... can we take a moment to appreciate 2:26 the solid blocking and hits Zeke is putting on defenders to give our boy time to shine and ball out? Get that time for your QB to sling the pill.

You gotta love Amari Cooper's concentration and work ethics!

Cowboys defense played outstanding. The receivers brought their A-game tonight. Only if Dak played, this would've been a 30-40 point from Cowboys. Rush did his job. Team win for sure. Carry on Cowboys Nation #Rushattack

Randy Gregory is a BEAST. Micah Parsons too, dude played his best game imo. So many great & memorable plays this game, with a backup lmao. Wilson TD, Wilson beautiful throw to CeeDee, Amari juggling catch, Zeke fighting for the 1st down, and the Coop2Coop perfect game winning play

That was a great run and effort by Emmit Smith on that 3rd and 11. Congratulations on the Cowboys.

RUSH’s father looked like he just ate the best bowl of SOUP in his life at the end of the video 🤣😂🤣😂🤣. Love it man.

Dan Quinn gave this team an attitude that was much needed for years.....

No one’s gonna talk about how great of a throw Wilson had he should be the second string qb

Ugly 4th quarter turned beautiful. The Dallas Cowboys were my 1st favorite team growing up in Chicago. Tom Landry, Roger Staubach, a bunch of great receivers, & Walt Garrison- a full-back who could carry three guys on his back. This was sweet!

I’m very impressed with backup quarterback rush . He played like an mvp candidate . First game over 300 yds wow congrats rush , and zeke rest of team . Defense is back . Go cowboys

The unnecessary roughness calls against the Cowboys were BS!!

Game was practically handed to the Vikings but Cousins had to continue his pattern of phenomenal prime time performances 😂😂

Came back here to get some confidence from Rush going into week 2. All hope isn’t lost but definitely lack the receiving talent this year as opposed to last.

Calls were so soft this game, pulled through though with the offense. That zeke run decided the game, glad we have a good team, GO COWBOYS!

Rush’s father face of pure joy for his son was Awesome to see. I was watching this game with my 4 year old son, I shed a tear 😂

Too bad Trevon Diggs didn’t keep up his INT streak, but still a great game for the cowboys

Wow. They never gave up. So impressed on this one.

It was so wholesome to see Cooper Rush’s family’s reactions.

Cooper Rush had a great performance for the Cowboys. Kirk Cousins tried to rally for the win, but came up way short. Congratulations, Cooper Rush! Your first career win!

Games like this definitely build confidence and character. GO COWBOYS!!!

Great job Cooper Rush!!! I was highly impressed by his passing accuracy and patience! He stepped up when we needed him to!

Shannon Sharpe has had a bad year with his predictions. He said the vikings would beat the cowboys with or without Prescott. That hater has to run out of excuses when it comes to not giving Dallas credit. This team is a legit SB contender. Games like tonight and against the patriots were loses under Garrett.

Solid team win. O-line even makin a highlight catch 😂

Not even a cowboys fan but shout out to Cooper Rush for his performance

Cooper can be a NFL starter if he is calm, and if he starts the way he ended

Credit McCarthy and the coaching staff getting Cooper Rush ready. Amari and zeke huge in the end.

Wow! Cooper Rush played well tonight. Nice to see a backup step up like that.

At the begining Cooper Rush looked so nervous not confident, but as the game went on you could tell he was settling in. The Boys were putting it together there at the end. Wow, what a game. And what a run by Ezikiel, like magic.

Applause to ALL cowboy players and staff for doing a great job! 👍

I must say the backup qb held his own he deserves recognition good job

What a throw by Wilson 💯

I wish I could have heard Paul Allan on the radio having a compete meltdown when the Vikings lost

As a longtime Steelers fan, I don't like either team. Yet I will tip my hat 🎩 of respect for the Cowboys getting the win and handling adversity a lot better this season. Especially with injuries hitting Dallas and every NFL team last season and this season. The Steelers have a poor track record of handling adversity and their current win-loss record reflects this. The Cowboys have understood the sense of urgency. Impressive win.

The cowboys offense is so good that they win with cooper rush

Zeke secured this win for the Boys.

I've been saying for years Cooper Rush has the best arm on the team and deserves the #2 QB slot. But now we actually see it and it looks like he's a starter in the NFL. Dallas stacked deep at multiple positions this year. #titlerun

14:51 It sounded like they were playing in Dallas just like New England when the Cowboys won their too!

Glad to have Randy Gregory back , He is a force on this defense!!

As a Dallas Cowboys fan I’m proud of them!!!

Kubiak and Zim Jr are as good at coaching as Jack Collinsworth is at broadcasting. They all got their positions on their own meritocracy 🤪

Randomly found my way back here over 9 months later. This really was a great game. I was horribly sick with covid on this Halloween day. Bedridden and could barely stand to even watch tv. But Sunday Night Football brought me some sort of comfort and as a Cowboys fan, seeing the backup QB pull off the win made this a memorable game and one of my favorite games in recent memory. Despite being as awfully sick as I was, this was a memorable Halloween.

Gregory lowkey making play after play, even if he just pressuring the QB he's a monster

The Vikings just lost to FREAKING Cooper Rush

What a throw by Wilson! That was nuts!

I'm super proud of my cowboys winning this game without dak nothing can stop us this year 💯

Bro, I was grinning ear to ear when he hit that TD to Cooper & his family burst in excitement! 👏😃

i’m impressed with this Dallas football team, we showed guts & determination. Good Game to the Vikings & i hope we can continue this success. 🙏🏽 💯

Dad's look was do heartwarming. You could just feel how proud he was just looking at him.

Cooper, Lamb, Wilson, Elliott, Pollard, Gregory, Parsons, Diggs, and everybody else came to play!!! Love this team and how tough everybody is. Even though Rush didn't play very well, the rest of the team showed up and won the game. Wouldn't mind playing without Dak for another week 😬

lol Vikings literally lost to a back up QB 😂 can’t wait for Shannon and Smith 🤣🤣

13:40 this is the play of the game for me. Zeke won it right here.

My heart got warmed when i saw cooper rush family after the game

Great game the Rush man really played great, gives me confidence for Dallas playoff run. Go Cowboys!

Cowboys tackling in crucial scenarios (mostly third downs) have been deadly

Play of the game was Zeke’s last run. If he didn’t break those tackles and get the first down, most likely OT and loss.

Haters before the game: “Justin Jefferson, Adam Thielen & Dalvin Cook are gonna toast the Cowboys whether Dak plays or not!” Haters after the game: “Vikings suck”

Crazy how the crowd reacts just about as equal when the Cowboys make a big play as the Vikings do. I was watching the game and they were chanting "Lets-Go-Cowboys" towards that last drive....

Just finished taking my heart meds…can’t be a Cowboys fan without em! DCFL💙

When Cooper made that insane catch with 2:40 left I almost had a heart attack. Another miracle comeback win for the Cowboys AGAIN! This may be our season Cowboys fans!

Well here we are again

What a RUSH! The Legion of COOP connection was 🔥and that near pick catch by AMARI.

Honestly this Cowboys team is really good. Their D has improved significantly due to Dan Quinn.

I'm so proud of this team. The defense really played their hearts out tonight as did Rush, Zeke, Amari, and Lamb. As a Cowboys fan, the Super Bowl is always a goal but it seems realistic this year

How many cowboy fans have went back to watch this game. 9/24

Is Dan Bailey still available? Greg Zurlein has put us in situations we don't need to be in too many times.

Cowboys for real this year. They didn’t even have Dak and they still showed up strong, unlike last year.

That defense played they ass off and zeke sealed the game. Anything could have happened in overtime. We knew cooper would handle biz.

Congrats Coop!! You had a squad that played thier ass off for you. All week long, was nothing but hate coming from the 105.3 the fan down here in Dallas. You deserve this day man. No one had faith in you but the only ones that mattered, Dem Boys!!!

Cedric Wilson is just too underrated. The man is a wide receiver and is throwing ball like a QB. He did it while running in this game. Also I don’t remember any of his throws being incomplete (I need to double check that tho) 🤠

For the first time in a long time i was satisfied with our secondary. Diggs obviously has been awesome this year but brown & lewis looked good.

Dan Quinn has this defense playing lights out, They kept us in it all night 🔥

What a game, Cooper really shocked everyone and showed us that he can play. Not trying to jinx anything but they are a legit Super Bowl contender

And that’s how Cooper Rush ..after not playing since 2017, led America’s team to a win over the Vikings on Halloween night 2021. *HOW BOUT THEM COWBOYS!!!*

I know ppl hate the cowboys but can we actually sit back and realize how good this team can be.

“COWBOYS are gonna get killed without Dak” Cooper Rush: “and I took that personally”
