dynamic, play-action heavy passing offense with elite pre-snap motion
multiple-front defense built around speed and disguise

Mike McCarthy
Starting QB
Dak Prescott
balanced, spread-formation attack that leverages Prescott's arm and CeeDee Lamb's talent
aggressive, Micah Parsons-anchored defense that creates havoc in opposing backfields
Key Players
The reigning standard-bearer at the position. Mahomes' combination of arm talent, mobility, and football IQ makes him nearly impossible to game-plan against consistently. Look for him to exploit single coverage and generate explosive plays in the second half.
Prescott's arm talent and ability to operate in a spread formation make him one of the NFC's most productive passers. He's at his best when the Cowboys can establish early success and build rhythm.
Kelce remains the most reliable tight end in football in critical moments. His route running in the middle of the field and red-zone presence gives Mahomes a safety valve that defenses cannot fully eliminate.
Lamb is one of the best receivers in football. His combination of route running, yards after catch, and contested-catch ability makes him nearly impossible to match up against with a single cornerback.
