Although it seems absurd, the statistics contradict the idea that Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott and Kansas City’s Patrick Mahomes are comparable.
According to CBS Sports, Prescott has outperformed the Chiefs star quarterback in terms of passing yards (2,935), passing touchdowns (23) and passer rating (107.3) in 11 games.
With an offense that leads the NFL in drops (28), Mahomes, a two-time Super Bowl champion, is still the superior player. Still, Prescott is a strong contender for MVP, as evidenced by his outstanding stats. The 30-year-old has the fourth-best odds (+800) as of Wednesday to win the trophy for the first time in his career, according to oddschecker.
“Prescott is first in passer rating and passing TDs by a wide margin (he’s the only player in the past five games with double-digit TDs),” Jeff Kerr of CBS Sports said. “He’s performing admirably. His argument will be greatly aided if the Cowboys defeat winning clubs next.”
Dallas has the fifth-most challenging remaining schedule in the NBA, according to Tankathon. Prescott, though, declared he would not give up his hot hand and praised his rapport with head coach Mike McCarthy.
“It’s about us being on the same page,” he stated on Monday, according to Clarence Hill of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram. Yes, it’s true that he is blazing. He is dismissing them from the call sheet for any reason, be it a play action or a run.”
Prescott has rebuilt himself as the focal point of the team and has the ability to help the Cowboys snap their 28-year Super Bowl drought after throwing a career-high 15 interceptions in the previous campaign.
It wouldn’t be shocking if he secured an extension if he continues to thrive and guides Dallas to a deep playoff run. Two years left on the former fourth-round pick’s $160 million, four-year contract, which contains a $201.9 million dead cap out in 2024.
