Who Should I Start? Dak Prescott or Trevor Lawrence

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott gave some clarification on the "spitting incident" that happened during Thursday's season opener against the Philadelphia Eagles. Both Prescott and Jalen Carter got into an altercation due to one of them spitting on the other. After the dust settled, Carter was ejected from the game in the first quarter. After the game, Prescott said he didn't intend to bait Carter or spit in his direction. It sounds like a misunderstanding, but one that certainly hurt the Eagles defense. It's unclear at the moment if Carter will face any other displicine from the league.

Jackonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence had an encouraging first-half showing in the Week 1 win over the Carolina Panthers, going 14-for-19 for 128 yards and a touchdown, but the Jags had a 20-3 lead at halftime and chose to go conservative in the second half. Lawrence finished 19-for-31 passing on the day for 178 yards, a touchdown and an interception, so overall, his day didn't look all that great against a team that had the worst defense in the league in 2024. This game also included a lengthy weather delay that could have interrupted the 25-year-old's rhythm in head coach Liam Coen's first game. While Lawrence' final stat line didn't jump off the page, he could be primed for a much better performance in a Week 2 date against a Cincinnati Bengals defense that was quite porous last year.
