Maybe DeAngelo Williams was on to something.
As a quick refresher: he basically said the other day that the Cowboys and their fans get big heads during the regular season then tend to crumble in the playoffs (if they make it there).
Welp, Dak Prescott was asked on the ESPYs red carpet for his take on the NFC East this coming season and didn't disappoint.
"We’re the Cowboys. We’re gonna win the NFC East," Prescott said.
I don't have a real problem with Prescott response though. He's the leader of a team that won its division last season. Is he not supposed to be confident again this season?
Let's compare that to what Carson Wentz said this morning on 94 WIP.
"Our goal is to win the NFC East and we believe we have the guys to do it," Wentz said.

Pretty similar!
As PFT pointed out, Prescott was chosen as "Best Breakthrough Athlete" at the ESPYs, which must not have seen Joel Embiid play basketball for 31 games last season.
OddShark.com currently has the Cowboys as a pretty strong favorite to take the East at +110, followed by the Giants at +180, Eagles at +300 and Redskins at +450.
