FRISCO, Texas -- With a 5-1 record, there are many reasons for the Dallas Cowboys' success.
Quarterback Dak Prescott's return from injury and MVP-level play
Offensive coordinator Kellen Moore’s stellar game plans
Defensive coordinator Dan Quinn’s ability to reshape a unit that was battered and bruised in 2020
Running back Ezekiel Elliott’s return to form as one of the NFL’s best running backs
The offensive line’s play, behind Pro Bowlers Tyron Smith and Zack Martin
Cornerback Trevon Diggs’ otherworldly start with seven interceptions
Rookie linebacker/defensive end Micah Parsons’ fieldwide playmaking
The front office’s drafting and economical free-agent signings
It seems credit goes to just about everybody but the coach, Mike McCarthy.
