Here's a correction. With receipts, as they say.
heck of a coincidence.
Cowboys' first 10 opponents' pass defense
vs rest of NFL
2444 of 3823 26,763 yd 195 td 87 int 92.0
vs Dak
247 of 365 3,221 yd 21 td 9 int 104.1
difference of +11.6%
Cowboys' last 3 opponents' pass defense
vs rest of NFL
711 of 1170 6,403 yd 28 td 34 int 71.4
vs Dak
78 of 131 901 yd 3 td 2 int 81.6
difference of +12.5%
The league average passer rating (91.1) is about what the rest of the league's QB averaged against Dallas' first 10 opponents. Basically, the Cowboys went 6-4 against an average schedule of pass defenses, and Dak had a 104.1 passer rating.
The last three opposing defenses are 20 points better than that 91.1 league average, and Dak's performance in the last three games basically splits that 20-point difference.
