2023 NFL quarterback analysis: Dallas Cowboys
Current starter: Dak Prescott | Current backups: Cooper Rush, Will Grier
State of the position: Prescott looked good in the wild-card round game Monday night against Tampa Bay, really good. At one point, he had 11 straight completions, the most in franchise history in the playoffs.
Prescott played so well that it was easy to forget he tied Houston’s middling Davis Mills for the league lead with 15 interceptions. In his seven-year career, Prescott has thrown for 166 TDs and 24,943 yards. But he also has 65 interceptions and 52 fumbles. Factor in his 2-3 playoff record and you can see why Jerry Jones was so smitten with backup Cooper Rush during Prescott’s injury.
