From the article

After six weeks of seeing Dak Prescott's ADOT rank near the bottom of the league, the Cowboys generated explosive plays at an extremely high clip against a defense that had not given up many explosive passing plays to start the season. With so many defenses sitting on the stop-routes that have been in heavy rotation to start the year, the Cowboys were able to hit multiple big plays using sluggos on the outside, which should be there for them yet again against a Cardinals secondary that has struggled to slow down opposing passing games in 2026 (31st in dropback epa/play and 20th in dropback success rate).

STACKED’s take

Positive signalUsage

Prescott's ADOT increased sharply; deep passing should work vs. Cardinals.

The source reports that after six weeks of Dak Prescott's average depth of target (ADOT) ranking near the bottom of the league, the Cowboys generated explosive plays at an extremely high clip against Denver by pushing the ball downfield; the offense used sluggos on the outside to hit multiple big plays, a strategy that should remain available against Arizona's secondary, which ranks 31st in dropback EPA/play and 20th in dropback success rate.
