It looks like it’s going to be one of those seasons for the Dallas Cowboys. One moment, it’s a total disaster. The next, everything’s wonderful again. That’s the way it felt Sunday night throughout their dramatic, nail-biting, 20-17 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Prescott can do a lot, but he’s going to be in positions where he knows that if he doesn’t make something happen, it’s probably not going to happen. And when he starts forcing…
