But the nature in which they tied is what offers so much optimism for the Cowboys, at least on one side of the ball. It’s no real surprise, given that his first year as the Cowboys’ offensive coordinator saw Prescott finish second in MVP voting. Not only does Dallas rank fifth in EPA/rush, they’re second in yards after contact per carry, behind only Derrick Henry and the Ravens. To put it in further perspective, in just Week 4, the Cowboys were third in EPA/play and second in success rate. Prescott is off to a hot start, the run game is actually strong and reliable, and reinforcements are on the way.
