Dak Prescott brushes off ‘MVP’ chants after Cowboys’ dominant win

There's something about playing in MetLife Stadium that Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott must enjoy. After all, he's lost just one time there since his rookie season, and that came against the New York Jets in 2019. While Prescott is unbeaten against the Giants since his sophomore campaign, he entered Sunday with a 1-1 record against the Jets.

To make things even more complicated for the Cowboys, they were without four of five starting offensive linemen and star wide receiver CeeDee Lamb.

None of it mattered.

Cowboys' Dak Prescott had an amazing performance vs. Jets

Prescott's encore performance, following a stellar 319-yard passing game with three scores the week prior against the Green Bay Packers, was even more impressive in the Cowboys' 37-22 win. The 32-year-old signal-caller threw for 237 yards and four touchdowns, pushing the game nearly out of reach around halftime, when the Cowboys led 23-3.

However, one noteworthy question directed at Prescott was about a chant coming from the MetLife crowd—and it was something he certainly never hears when Dallas faces the Giants. Prescott received a loud "M-V-P" chant during the victory, but as The Athletic's Jon Machota revealed, he was quick to brush that aside.

When asked if Prescott heard the chant, he responded:

“My ears work, so I did hear it. But I didn’t hear it. It’s Week 5," Prescott responded. "I didn’t play near as well of a game as I wanted to.”
