Carson Wentz knew the Dak Prescott question was coming. He quickly noted that the Eagles are playing the Cowboys – so it’s not exactly Wentz vs. Prescott.
Consider it good practice,womens Richie Incognito Jersey, because he’s going to get the question often in his career. It will usually come twice a year, maybe three times, and it could extend into the next decade. This is just Round 2 of a meeting between two of the most promising young quarterbacks in the NFL.
“We’re playing the Cowboys, but at the end of the day,” Wentz said. “That’s plenty significant enough. Dak’s a great player. It’s exciting for this [division],Authentic Jake Matthews Jersey, this league. A lot of respect for him and what he’s done,Authentic Brooks Reed Jersey, this rivalry,Authentic Andy Levitre Jersey, we have enough with it just being the rivalry week that it already is.”
but the Wentz-Prescott dynamic adds a new element. Both quarterbacks are in their second NFL seasons. Prescott had the better rookie season.

evidence of the leap he has made in Year 2.,Wentz might be in that position this year because he’s having the superior second season. The Eagles visit Dallas on Sunday holding the NFL’s best record and a three-game lead over the Cowboys in the division. Wentz is even the frontrunner to win the MVP
” Prescott said by phone on Wednesday. “But it’s hard when Carson’s playing as well as he’s playing and the Eagles are as hot as they are to not see and not pay attention to his stats and what he’s doing. He’s a great player. It’s obvious. I noticed that through the draft process. …Looking forward to this Sunday and many years to come.”,womens Ricardo Allen Jersey,“I don’t pay attention to comparisons
Both coaching staffs know both quarterbacks well from the 2016 draft. The Cowboys staff coached Wentz in the Senior Bowl and scouted him heavily for the No. 4 overall pick.

They coveted Wentz, jumping ahead of the Cowboys to the No. 2 overall pick for Wentz. The Cowboys took star running back Ezekiel Elliott and didn’t add Prescott until the fourth round.
Both quarterbacks became unexpected Day 1 starters last year – Wentz because of the Sam Bradford trade,Authentic Tyrod Taylor Jersey,” and is “really playing at a high level.” Eagles defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz said, Prescott because of Tony Romo’s injury – and have developed quickly into franchise players.

“There is that little bit inside you that you know they’re linked together,womens Matt Bosher Jersey,” Eagles offensive coordinator Frank Reich said. “So that’s natural,womens Matt Bryant Jersey that’s human nature.

It’s good for the NFC East that they will play each other for years to come. Wentz has become well-versed on the Eagles-Cowboys rivalry since coming to Philadelphia. But he’s spent most of time this week watching the Cowboys defense and figuring out how to stay hot against the NFL’s 14th-ranked pass defense – one that he says includes a “dynamic front four.” He’ll let Schwartz and the defense worry about Prescott.Authentic Matt Bosher Jersey,
“I’m not playing Dak Prescott,” Wentz said. “I’m playing the Cowboys defense. And as a team,Authentic Richie Incognito Jersey, we’re playing the Cowboys. I don’t really look into it too much. I just focus in on what we can do to beat this defense.”
