The skills learned this summer are helping the Cowboys' quarterback execute an MVP-caliber performance.
Furthermore, Dorian Thompson-Robinson's concussion treatment, Rashee Rice's breakout, Mac Jones' benching, and Aaron Rodgers' return are all addressed.
Dak Prescott made a several of interceptions at training camp earlier this summer.
During my visit to Cowboys camp in Southern California, I had something to discuss with coach Mike McCarthy during our two-hour meeting in his suite at the team's hotel/makeshift facility.
McCarthy, as expected, backed Prescott by emphasising that there was a strategy behind what was going on in late July and August.
After losing Kellen Moore to the Chargers and McCarthy taking over as offensive coordinator, the Cowboys sought to improve off the field.
McCarthy told me that they wanted to practise scramble situations so that Prescott and everyone else could perform better when things didn't go as expected.
After the Cowboys' 38-35 shootout win over the Seahawks on Thursday night, a Cowboys staffer spoke highly of Prescott's pocket understanding and comfort in running the offence off-rhythm and off-schedule.
Mike [McCarthy] and Schotty [coordinator Brian Schottenheimer] emphasise those things in quarterback training on a daily basis, and he and the receivers agree on those plays."
