According to The Athletic’s Jon Machota:

How much better can the Cowboys offense be this Sunday?

Dak Prescott: “Tons. Usually that’s when teams make that jump from Week 1 to Week 2. And just understanding that we left a lot of meat out there on the bone.”

Prescott became the highest-paid player in NFC history shortly before the team bus left for Huntington Bank Field at 12:45 p.m. this past Sunday.

Prescott signed a four-year contract extension worth $240 million in Jerry Jones’ office at the Star on Monday. Charlotte Jones and Stephen Jones, executive vice presidents, were present with the owner and general manager.

To say the pressure is on this year for Dallas as a team is an understatement.  The Giants had an abysmal week one performance against the Minnesota Vikings.  Analysts are picking Dallas to tromp the Saints at home.
