This is a no-brainer, and that is exactly what both Paylor and Person pointed out. This basically translates into getting the ball out fast to receivers in space, and that will allow them to stack up much-needed yards after the catch and create more explosive plays. According to Pro Football Focus last year Cowboys ranked 12th, at 7.1 percent with RPO’s. More RPO’s means a better fit for Prescott who fits perfectly with more intermediate throws that utilize his feet as a passer and a runner. Plus side is Elliott who is feared by each and every defense, and the fact is that they would have to react on every run fake.
