Quarterback Battle: Who has the edge? Dak Prescott vs. Lamar Jackson
There are constant comparisons in the NFL between players within the same position group. But one battle that may be closer than some realize is between Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott and Baltimore Ravens dual-threat quarterback Lamar Jackson.
Winning Percentage: Edge Lamar Jackson
Prescott has played 28 more games than Jackson has, but that hasn’t hindered these stats. While both quarterbacks have a positive winning record throughout their professional careers, Jackson has the best winning percentage.

Jackson Win %: 73.4%
Prescott Win %: 66%
Passing Yards: Edge Dak Prescott
Prescott has some of the best ball placement among all starting quarterbacks in the league. Jackson has shown the capability to use his arm but the pocket passer from Dallas has him beat up to this point in their careers.

Prescott: 29,931 passing yards (7.6 yards per attempt, 98.7 passer rating)

Jackson: 16,407 passing yards (7.5 yards per attempt, 97.6 passer rating)
Rushing Yards: Edge Lamar Jackson
Jackson can air the ball out on offense, but his biggest superpower throughout his NFL Career has been his ability to use his legs. While both quarterbacks are mobile, the Ravens star may be one of the best rushing quarterbacks we have ever seen.

Jackson: 5,425 rushing yards (896 attempts, 6.1 yards per carry)

Prescott: 1,899 rushing yards (410 attempts, 4.6 yards per carry)
Passing Touchdowns: Edge Dak Prescott
The Mississippi State product has more years under his belt, but even then, his ability to find his receivers in the end zone is impressive.

Prescott: 204 passing touchdowns

Jackson: 127 passing touchdowns
Interceptions: Edge Lamar Jackson
Up to this point in their careers, Jackson has done a far better job taking care of the ball. Although Prescott is more of a passing quarterback than he is a dual-threat QB, the Mississippi State alum has had more than his fair share of interceptions:

Jackson: 46 interceptions
Prescott: 76 interceptions
Most Valuable Player Awards: Edge Lamar Jackson
Jackson has been an absolute star since taking over as the starting quarterback in Baltimore. The Louisville product has consistently taken his team to the postseason and atop the AFC North on multiple occasions. Despite the Ravens' lack of receiving options, Jackson always seems to somehow make what he has work. In turn, he’s been named the NFL MVP more than once.

Jackson: 2 MVP Awards
Prescott: 0 MVP Awards
