Stop calling Dak Prescott the new Russell Wilson. It’s simply wrong.

There have been a lot of comparisons between Russell Wilson and Dak Prescott ever since Prescott roared onto the field in 2015. It’s ramped up even more with them facing each other in the playoffs tonight. Those comparisons underestimate Wilson and are unfair to Prescott.

As I said, Prescott had a terrific rookie season. He threw for over 3600 yards, had 23 touchdown passes and a ridiculously low four interceptions. That all turned into a passer rating of 104.9. He also ran for 282 yards and six more touchdowns. It was a phenomenal rookie season.
