Jerry Jones launches his MVP campaign for Dak Prescott

The Dallas Cowboys’ dominant win over the Washington Commanders didn’t just leave a lopsided scoreboard—it came with a bold statement from Jerry Jones. The team’s owner and general manager didn’t flinch when naming Dak Prescott as a serious contender for MVP. “He’s mine and should be the fans’ too. He gives us a great chance,” Jones said in comments captured by 103.5 The Fan and cited by Firstsportz.

Dak Prescott, now 32, threw three touchdown passes and led scoring drives in every quarter. Even without CeeDee Lamb and several starting linemen, the quarterback kept the ball safe and maximized every offensive opportunity. The addition of George Pickens has been a game-changer, and Prescott knows exactly how to make it count.

A reinforced offense

According to Firstsportz, Jerry Jones put in serious work during the offseason to fix last year’s mistakes. The result is a more balanced and explosive offense, one that has allowed Dak Prescott to climb into the MVP conversation. While the Cowboys have dropped a few games, most of those losses stem from defensive breakdowns—not from a lack of firepower on offense.

Weapons reloaded

Dak Prescott also doubled down on his belief in the team. In a postgame interview with Tom Brady for FOX Sports, the signal-caller said he’s never had more confidence in a Cowboys roster. “When we play to our potential, we’re going to be a very, very tough team to beat,” Prescott said. With Pickens and Lamb stretching the field, Jerry Jones’ Dallas offense looks stacked with weapons.

“When we play to what we’re capable of doing, we’re going to be a very, very tough team to beat.”

Meanwhile, contract extension talks for George Pickens are gaining momentum. Though he shares an agent with Micah Parsons—whose previous negotiations stirred tension—Jerry Jones made it clear he’s not worried. “I don’t care who represents him,” Jones told Jon Machota. He believes Pickens will be rewarded if he keeps delivering week after week.

For those worried about George Pickens’ Cowboys future because he shares the same agent as Micah Parsons, Jerry Jones: “Don’t pay any attention to that.”

With the Cowboys trying to climb back in the NFC and Dak Prescott playing at a high level, Jerry Jones isn’t just defending his quarterback—he’s pushing him as the face of a new chapter. And if the team keeps its rhythm, the MVP trophy might not be out of reach.
