Dallas Cowboys. 2. team. 123. If the Cowboys’ victory over the Buccaneers last week put to rest any questions about quarterback Dak Prescott’s effectiveness, Dallas’ decisive Week 16 win over the Lions only ensured it was reality. Prescott is for real, and the Cowboys have all the momentum they need heading into the playoffs.
