Cowboys QB Dak Prescott and Saints QB Derek Carr face each other Sunday, with both teams off to solid starts in yet another pursuit of postseason vindication.
Dak Prescott can't get the Cowboys deep enough in the playoffs. Derek Carr can't get his teams into the tournament, as it is affectionally known, enough in the first place.
The 33-year-old Carr has made the playoffs just twice and appeared in one game, with a late-season injury ruining his best chance in nine seasons with the Raiders in Oakland and Las Vegas. Prescott will play his first game since officially signing a $240 million, four-year contract with a record $231 million guaranteed. The 31-year-old agreed to the first deal to average $60 million per year a few hours before beating the Browns.
“The Saints did a really good job of really just communicating with us,” safety Tyrann Mathieu said, adding that it was good to have Wednesday night off “to get home and get settled” before Francine hit.The home winning streak for Dallas doesn't mean quite as much after the shocking 48-32 wild-card loss to Green Bay last season.
Both led strong showings in Week 1, with the Saints setting franchise records for points in an opener and consecutive scoring drives to start the season with nine.
