Ezekiel Elliott called Dak Prescott a “grown-*** man” after the quarterback rallied the Cowboys for a wild-card victory over the Seahawks on Saturday night.

“I feel like I’m a grown-*** man just in general, playing like it or not,” Prescott said. “I’ll take the compliment. Obviously, it felt good. Everybody worked well together and when we can do that, it makes my job easier.”
 
Pay attention to the final paragraph of the article.........damn
That stat is a little misleading, because it goes back to 1994, when the average passer rating was 14.5 points lower. So it's not a fair comparison between players who are no longer playing, players who have been around for a while, and young players like Dak whose career ratings don't suffer from having been in the league when the average rating was lower.

That said, if you just look at the last three years using the parameters from the article, Dak is #1 in passer rating. And this ranking doesn't depend on era at all.

(min 100 att)
Prescott 110.5
Rthlsbrgr 110.2
Brees 109.2
Luck 109.1
Wilson 103.7

This is not "Late & Close," because it leaves out attempts when the QB has a one-score lead or less (which doesn't make sense to leave out), but Dak ranks 4th in that one.

Dude is as clutch as they are created. People forget that this is only his third year and he was supposed to be a project quarterback. I don’t even think he’s entered his prime just yet. I’m sure he’ll continue to work on his accuracy and throwing motion in general every off season. The dude is going to be special for a long time, in my opinion.
