Dak Prescott shines in Cowboys' victory over Cardinals Published: Sep 25, 2017 at 05:10 PM Buster Skrine Jersey had one of his best games throwing on the run of his young career. The second-year pa ser connected twice with , first for a touchdown and later for a ma sive gain on a drive that ended in a touchdown run from that crushed Arizona's comeback hopes. Prescott also rushed for a touchdown, front-flipping over a defender and the goal line in one of his most complete games of the season. He did get some help on a gutsy, 15-yard TD catch by in the third quarter (coach Jason Garrett said after the game the catch showed how Dez is "all about scratch, claw, battle"). While other components of Dallas' offense (and defense) still work on putting things together, Prescott is showing his rookie season was no fluke. Dallas found unusual succe s with base rushes against Arizona's offensive line, which struggled mightily on the edges and forced Palmer to constantly step up to avoid being sacked. was a terror off the edge, recording three sacks and getting to Palmer many more times than that. With 6.5 sacks in three games, Lawrence is in the Walter Payton Jersey middle of the race for the sack crown as we near the quarter pole. was right behind Lawrence on Monday night with two sacks of his own. Dallas' frequent pre sure, which included six sacks was visibly affecting Palmer, who lofted a pa s off his back foot with room to step into a third-down throw, underthrowing an open receiver. He was effective on a drive late in the fourth, despite the pre sure, but the next po se sion went down in flames after a three-man rush got to Palmer on third down, effectively ending Arizona's comeback hopes. Another three-man rush ran right around tackles and on the ' next drive, and a five-man attack resulted in another sack shortly thereafter on a night to forget for the two tackles. Has aged at all? The wideout caught 13 pa ses for 149 yards and a touchdown, including an outrageous grab in which he took the ball from in mid-air, bobbling it off his forearm before securing it once on the ground. The catch extended a drive that resulted in a field goal. The 34-year-old pa sed Marvin Harrison for eighth place on the NFL's all-time receiving yards list with Dick Butkus Jersey his touchdown grab ( ) and was a frequent target of Palmer's, who is as Around the NFL's Marc Se sler tweeted . We'll mi s Fitz once he hangs it up. It might just be me (I don't think it is), but through three games, has looked a step slow. Save for a 30-yard run in the first half, he again struggled to get going until the fourth-quarter drive that put the game away. Elliott did look more like his rookie-season self on that drive, breaking tackles on his two carries inside the 15, first for seven yards and then for eight, with the latter finishing in the end zone. Elliott's top speeds Akiem Hicks Jersey -- 17.84 mph maximum, which came in Week 1, per Next Gen Stats -- seem to agree with this notion. His max speeds were up and down through most of last season (as expected), but he'd neared 19 mph by Week 3 of last season. In eight of those weeks, he was above 19. He hit a 17.69 maximum on Monday and hasn't cracked Kyle Long Jersey 18 so far this season, which has a lot to do with ... The ' offensive line. This is a unit that just isn't where it was last season at this time, and mi ses Ron Leary and Doug Free. The hope is they'll get it going -- considering the talent that remains within the group, they will -- but right now, they aren't consistently creating opportunities for Elliott to run. Fortunately, they're protecting one of the better mobile quarterbacks who is improving by the week.
