SI: Prescott in a groove under MM's "Texas Coast" offense

Just remember Parcell once said, you want to play your best ball after T'giving. We will know a lot about this team over the three games ( Seahawks, Eagles and Bills )

Prescott in a groove under McCarthy’s “Texas Coast” offense​

It’s a bit strange that the Cowboys’ productive offense has gone under the radar when it comes to popular NFL storylines. But not many can take them seriously because of the mistake-filled loss against the Eagles and the lopsided defeat to the 49ers earlier this season. Dallas has a reputation of brief postseason appearances and struggling against the top teams in the league. But we can at least acknowledge how well the Cowboys have played offensively this season with coach Mike McCarthy calling the plays.

After McCarthy started featuring CeeDee Lamb more in his “Texas Coast” offense (which began in Week 6 vs. the Chargers), Dallas hasn’t looked back, with Prescott playing like an MVP candidate. Prescott torched the Commanders on Thanksgiving with 331 passing yards and four touchdowns to improve the Cowboys’ record to 8–3.

Perhaps this version of Prescott with a dynamic offensive weapon in Lamb and a stellar defense might be enough to finally get the Cowboys past the divisional round of the postseason for the first time since the ’90s. I’m sure many football fans will roll their eyes at that suggestion, but Prescott & Co. can turn more doubters into believers by beating the Seahawks, Eagles, Bills and Dolphins for their brutal upcoming four-game stretch

Crappy opponents helps more than some will admit....

Dak has been playing lights out, no question about that.

However, we are about to see what him and this team are truly made of this year. Every team we play until week 18 (Commanders) is capable of hanging with us/beating us.

The narrative of beating up on bad teams will either completely disappear or grow even worse at the end of this stretch.

Of course it does but isn't a good thing or would you rather have it the other way around?

You're so negative just let us be happy for once you're never happy

I think so

can you point out the teams we've played that no one else in the league gets to?

Is Philly crappy? Because they had over 400 yards of offense despite the OL playing poorly.

Dallas lost if I remember correctly

Most predictable answer ever.

And also totally immaterial to the point.

It’s all about winning games and performing well against that upcoming schedule.

I have never seen QBs this scrutinized and held to a bar (that keeps changing) compared to the rest of the league as it has been for Romo and Dak.

It's amazing how the narrative keeps changing on what is considered a good QB when it came to these 2, yet other high draft picks get the benefit if the doubt and goal post gets moved closer to help them maintain their supposed elite status.
