    I think Dak's been fine. The Cowboys' defense is giving up about 36 points per game, and the only team they kept under 30 was the Rams. Dak's been a bit loose with the ball - 3 INT, 3 lost fumbles - but that happens when you're playing from behind constantly.

    I don't know what's more bizarre about this image: the team with a 1-2-1 record in first place or the presence of "Football Team" on the list. nfc east standings.png

    That tie might end up being what wins the Eagles the division.

    So I looked up Dak's splits because I was curious about how he's been playing in the stretches when games are close vs. when Dallas is way behind and pushing to come back.

    I came across this insane set of stats.

    These are Prescott's passing splits when ahead, tied and behind:

    ATT COMP PCT YDS AVG LNG TD INT 1st 1st% 20+ SCK SCKY RATE
    Ahead 2 1 50 11 5.5 11 0 0 1 50 0 1 8 66.7
    Tied 23 13 56.5 133 5.8 28 1 0 7 30.4 2 3 20 87.8
    Behind 176 123 69.9 1546 8.8 58 8 3 75 42.6 20 5 31 105

    In four games, he's thrown a grand total of two (2) passes when the Cowboys are ahead, and 176 when they're behind.

    The moral is, you can't tell how well he's playing when they're ahead BECAUSE THEY'RE NEVER AHEAD.

    BTW, his best stats are when Dallas is trailing by 9-16 points, though the behind by 1-8 points numbers aren't bad.

    Ahead by 1-8 Points 2 1 50 11 5.5 11 0 0 1 50 0 1 8 66.7
    Behind by 1-8 Points 80 55 68.8 704 8.8 43 4 2 33 41.3 11 4 25 102.3
    Behind by 9-16 Points 0 56 38 67.9 511 9.1 58 3 1 23 41.1 6 0 0 107.1
