Cowboys fans already know this, but Dak Prescott has been balling out lately. After three straight games with 300+ passing yards, the quarterback has put this offense on his back and led them to two huge wins and one incredibly close loss to the team with the best record in the NFL. Most quarterbacks with the kind of production Prescott is putting up right now would find themselves squarely in the MVP discussion.
Prescott is not like other quarterbacks, though. For whatever reason, national narratives around him have always been odd, to say the least. Take, for example, the histrionics around his interceptions a year ago.
