Say whatever you want, and continue to complain, but if you Cowboys fans have actually watched the first week of training camp, you’ll know what I am talking about.
The offense cooked the defense in Tuesday’s “Mojo Moment” period.
Going a PERFECT 5-for-5 in those situational football moments.
CeeDee Lamb, Brandin Cooks, and Jake Furguson x2 all caught passes during those moments.
Look at the beautiful pass and catch from Dak Prescott to Cooks in the back corner of the endzone below.

Dak also hit Cooks deep for a touchdown to conclude the opening first-team 11-on-11 drive in pads on Monday; the video is below.

Yet, all the media wanted to show was Prescott Interpection he had; it is funny, though, Aaron Rodgers threw one shortly after that, and it was all crickets.
It’s okay, though; we know you fans that hate Prescott want the team to fail simply because you don’t like him.
I want to win just as much as the next person, but you’ll never see me wishing for my FAVORITE team to lose a game because I don’t like a player.
2023 outlook
This offense averaged 30 points a game last season with Noah Brown and Dennis Houston.
This offense is light years ahead of where they were at this time last year.
Don’t kid yourselves.
Cooks has already shown more in camp in two days than they did all season.
Michael Gallup also has returned to his old self, it seems. High-pointing the football with ease, not worrying about his ACL injury anymore.
After watching camp this week, Cooks is always open! Just imagine what he and Lamb will do to the defense while on the same side.

Prescott will be just fine; after one year of throwing a career-high in interceptions, people act like that is who he has always been. Stop it.
I agree that he needs to get this team to the NFC title game to have everyone stop wanting him gone. I am not that blind.
I will also be out on him after 2023 if he doesn’t.
Absolutely no reason this team should not get there.
A long way to go, but I need to understand how folks think this team won’t win games.
I even saw one fan say that Prescott wouldn’t be the starting quarterback at the end of the year.
He might not play week 18, fair point, because by then, they will already have a playoff spot locked up.
Winning has never been a problem in the regular season, but do it in the playoffs.
I am at that point but get real. This team is loaded.
If this team won 12 games with no Gallup for half the year and Brown and Houston as their next-best receivers behind Lamb, they are fine.
The team got better in the offseason, finally. Now let’s get it done when it matters.

Ronald Jones got suspended for PEDs. He said it had something to do with the medication he has taken for years.
The No. 2 running back spot is still wide open behind Tony Pollard.
Brandon Aubrey looks to have the early lead in the kicking completion, while Jalen Tolbert and KaVontae Turpin are making early noise for the wideout No. 4 spot.
I love that football is back, now we have so much to talk about.
