Also.. 32 teams passed on Prescott 3 times and some a 4th time...

Once again... an awesome O-Line he went to.

Maybe that is why Coughlin didn't want to pull the trigger on QB... maybe he doesn't believe our O-Line is where it needs to be.

-shrug-

But the other 31 teams didn't have the opportunity to coach them and have them in meetings all week. We had the opportunity to see how they could learn a playbook and interact with other players behind closed doors.

Carr was a big risk that paid off, purely based on the offense he came from.  Somewhere, he learned to have composure under pressure, because he didn't have it in college.  If he went to a team with a worse offensive line, I think he's have been awful.

I still don't buy Prescott as a legit QB.  Dallas as a team is built perfectly for a rookie QB.  He made a ton of high percentage throws.  They never asked him to do much.  The line and Zeke hid a ton of his flaws in my opinion, and without Zeke I think he'll struggle.  If not, I'll eat my crow.
