Dak Prescott is playing at an elite level and making an early case to be one of the front-runners for NFL MVP, and he's hearing the chatter from the fans.

“I mean, my ears work, so I heard it, but I didn’t hear it. It’s Week 5, so I don’t care. I don’t care if it was Week 17,” Prescott said. “I’ve told y’all what I want to win — the team goals. …. To me, I didn’t play near as well as a game that I wanted to…. So yeah, those were just happy fans.”

Cowboys running back Javonte Williams is playing with a newfound confidence, and his secret to success in the Cowboys offense has been a new understanding of the team's offense and scheme.

“I feel like I’m understanding the plays and things a lot better. I’m not just out there running. I actually understand what’s going on," Williams said, via Nick Harris of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram.
