It is clear at this point that the biggest overreaction of the season came in Week 1, when many of us went ahead and wrote off the Dallas Cowboys after Dak Prescott injured his thumb in a season-opening loss to the Buccaneers.
Put aside for the moment what's happened to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers since then, the Cowboys right now are one of the top four or five teams in the whole league.
They went 4-1 without Dak. They've gone 2-0 since he returned. They dropped 49 points on the Chicago Bears on Sunday to roll into their bye week at 6-2, a game and a half behind the unbeaten, first-place Philadelphia Eagles, whom they actually played pretty tough in the last game before Prescott came back.
