Dak Prescott leads Dallas Cowboys past Philadelphia Eagles - ESPN

ARLINGTON, Texas — As Dak Prescott stepped to the podium after the Dallas Cowboys' 33-13 win against the Philadelphia Eagles Sunday, a clattering of fans chanted, «MVP! MVP! MVP!» through the glass from one of the club areas at AT&T Stadium.

Those questions will continue until Prescott wins big in the playoffs. He has a 2-4 mark in the postseason and the Cowboys have not gotten past the divisional around of the playoffs.

But Prescott is in the best stretch of his career with 23 touchdown passes and just two interceptions in his last eight games. He has thrown at least two touchdown passes in each of the last seven games, tying a team single-season mark held by Tony Romo.

In the last six weeks, Prescott's odds of winning the Most Valuable Player have gone from 60-to-1 (12th best) to a league-best +175, according to ESPN BET.
