Dak Prescott received significant criticism heading into the 2023 NFL Season.
Some analysts believed he wasn’t the right quarterback to lead the Dallas Cowboys moving forward, and that he couldn’t win in big games.
He seems to have heard their criticisms and has played significantly better as of late.
In a recent quote shared via Cowboys reporter Jon Machota, Jerry Jones said Prescott is “playing as good as I’ve ever seen him play.”
Cowboys owner Jerry Jones on QB Dak Prescott: “He’s playing as good as I’ve ever seen him play. He’s playing with confidence, but knowledge of the offense. He’s playing in sync with his coaching. As good as I’ve seen him play.”

It seems that the consensus around the Cowboys is positive, especially in the Dallas area.
If Jones is happy, that is a likely indication that things are going well.
What remains to be seen is if Prescott’s dominant play continues into the playoffs, something that has not been the case as of late.
This has been his biggest criticism throughout his career, and what his doubters mentioned in the offseason.
Regular season stats and records do not matter if teams cannot make a substantial playoff run, which has been the Cowboys’ kryptonite.
The NFC has been dominated by the Philadelphia Eagles and San Francisco 49ers lately.
This trend has continued this season, making the Cowboys’ path to a Super Bowl more difficult.
Jones has surrounded Prescott with great skill-position players, and the Cowboys’ defense continues to be one of the NFL’s best.
With this in mind, the positive attitudes surrounding the Cowboys might sour if Prescott fails to deliver when it matters most.
It is a long season, and there are still several weeks to see how everything plays out with this team.
