ABOUT THE COWBOYS (3-0): Prescott is second to Kansas City's Patrick Mahomes with a passer rating of 128.0 after throwing for a pair of scores and rushing for another versus Miami to overcome his second interception of the season. "They're playing awfully well right now," Saints coach Sean Payton said. "... You can't help but notice the quarterback and the success he's having. That's nothing new for him. He's been successful." Ezekiel Elliott has registered back-to-back 100-yard games while Amari Cooper, a limited participant in Thursday's practice, has four touchdown catches through three games. Dallas' pass rush finally showed a pulse with three sacks against the Dolphins.
ABOUT THE SAINTS (2-1): With Brees sidelined following thumb surgery, New Orleans put the ball in the hands of its best offensive player and Alvin Kamara responded by rushing for 69 yards and a touchdown and catching nine passes for 92 yards a score. "He's like a human joystick," said Bridgewater, who put up modest numbers with 177 yards passing but threw for a pair of touchdowns and did not commit a turnover. "You give him the ball, he's spinning, he's juking, he's bouncing off of guys." Michael Thomas has 25 receptions and scored his first touchdown last week while the defense yielded at least 27 points for the third straight week -- although 20 came in the fourth quarter.
