Cowboys say Prescott is out 8 games, but knowing Jerry Jones it's probably going to be more like 12 games or the whole season. I don't see them trotting him back out there if they're like 2-9 and he's "ready" and they're like 5 games out of first place in the division. This year isn't like 2015 or 2020 where the season was sort-of worth fighting for anyway because the rest of the division was so awful (hint: they're not this year) & if you win the division and get the #4 seed literally anything can happen in the playoffs, but if you're literally just playing for pride and a worse draft pick, just shut down your stars, give the young guns a chance, and live to fight another season.
