Dak Prescott’s injury probably means 18 years of this weird NFC East tradition

The Dallas Cowboys had a worse opening weekend to the 2022 NFL season than anyone. They were held out of the end zone in a 19-3 prime time loss, at home, to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Worse yet, they lost Jayron Kearse, Connor McGovern and most importantly Dak Prescott to injury.

That’s knocked the Cowboys from a -110 favorite to win their division to a +474 underdog — only slightly better odds than a Washington Commanders squad that went 7-10 the previous year. If that holds true, we’ll have a new champion in the NFC East.
