And again, you’re acting like the Cowboys are the Patriots or something. They were an 8-8 team last year. Dak also already has 9 4th quarter comebacks through 4 seasons (Andy had 10). So he’s done his share of playing from behind as well.
When Dak had a Hall-of-Fame TE (Witten), An All-Pro RB (Elliott), and All-Pro WR (Bryant), and an O-line with THREE FIRST TEAM ALL-PROS (Tyron Smith, Travis Frederick, Zach Martin) the best he could muster was a 104.9 passer rating. Dalton posted a 106.2 with half the talent around him in 2015. Dak had th number one running game in the league. Daltons best run support was the 2015 team that ranked 13th.
This argument reminds me of when some guys around here tried to claim that Tyrod Taylor was better than Andy. Just look how he fared when he did not have the number one rushing attack in the league behind him.
Prescott has had more talent around him on offense than any other QB in the league ever since the Cowboys drafted him. There are a lot of QBs that could have matched his production with that much talent around them.
