Lamb & Dak Draw Irvin & Aikman Comparison

Because of the Jimmy Johnson Ring of Honor induction, Irvin was at AT&T Stadium to watch Lamb work. For the same reason, Troy Aikman was also in the house to watch the Lamb and Dak Prescott combo.

Oh, and Jones was present, too, with the lofty comparison.

"(Lamb) is really dynamic with Dak as his quarterback,'' Jones said. "The Aikman-Irvin thing, shades of that, as far as I'm concerned. They're really hooking up."

Wow. But let's go back a bit micro here. Where does Lamb see himself in the receiver hierarchy?

“I’m not answering that question, I’ll let everybody else answer that, I’m going to continue to keep working that’s for sure and well keep stringing games together,” Lamb said.

Looking at Lamb's stats for the season, he is now second in yards (1,651), first in receptions (122), third in receiving touchdowns (10), third in yards after the catch (630), and second in yards per game (103.2).

While looking at that in a nutshell, it is impressive, but if we delve a little deeper into one in particular, it's even better.

Some had Miami Dolphins star Tyreek Hill in the MVP conversation as he was on track for 2,000 yards at one stage, but this is where it gets interesting. Now, CeeDee is just 66 yards behind Hill, who leads the league in receiving yards (1,717) with one game to go.

Lamb stated after the New York Giants' win in Week 10 where he had 11 receptions for 151 yards and a touchdown "I'm a top receiver in the game.'' He was right.

Dak, by the way, has long said the same thing, with more proof to back it up.

Said Prescott: "Remarkable, that's what CeeDee Lamb is. ... He's really just getting going and I can tell you as long as I'm here, he'll probably stack these records each and every year, to be honest with you. This is only the beginning."

Best in the game? Lamb and Dak get to be in that conversation. Best combo in Cowboys history? They're on a track worth watching.
