Carson Wentz vs. Dak Prescott used to be a thing, but one player is miles ahead of the other at this point in their respective careers. That would be Wentz, who has developed into the superstar quarterback and league MVP candidate while Prescott appears to struggle on a weekly basis.

Through four games this season, Wentz has completed 68.4 percent of his passes for 1,192 yards, eight touchdowns and one interception for a 104.7 passer rating. Keep in mind Wentz literally returned to the Eagles three weeks ago after nine months of rehab from ACL and LCL surgery.

So how's Prescott doing in five games? He has completed 61.8 percent of his passes for 961 yards, five touchdowns, four interceptions and an 81.4 passer rating.

In Prescott's last 15 games, he has completed 62.5 percent of his passes for 2,859 yards, 13 touchdowns, 13 interceptions for a 79.4 rating. In Wentz's last 15 games, he has completed 62.7 percent of his passes for 3,848 yards, 37 touchdowns and six interceptions for a 104.8 rating.

Both Wentz and Prescott have demonstrated their ability to become masters at their position through hard work. Prescott had to swallow some pride to improve at his position, as the Cowboys quarterback is seen watching film of Wentz (highlighted from the Cowboys coaching staff) over the summer. Here's the video from Reddit Eagles, which comes from the Cowboys "All or Nothing" series on Amazon.

The Cowboys have Ezekiel Elliott sans suspension this year, but also lack any receiver depth and need someone to step up and replace the retired Jason Witten. Prescott's game has suffered as a result. Dallas relies on its players to stay healthy for 16 games, while Wentz has worked on what he's had at his disposal.

"Just watching him rehab, watching him work, watching him out on the field and his determination to get back on the football field," said Eagles head coach Doug Pederson. "There's a lot of strength in his lower body. Noticed it obviously -- you kind of noticed the lower body through the upper body by the way he's throwing the football, and so I felt like his lower body strength was solid.

"Being able to be a little more pinpoint accurate, being able to stick the ball in some tight spots, into maybe a contested throw where he can get the ball in there. That throw he made for the first touchdown to Alshon [Jeffery] is an example of throwing back across your body, making a heck of a throw. So those are all things that are showing up."

The debate is pretty much over at this point in both players' career. That doesn't mean it won't be revisited, but Wentz and Prescott are just on a different pace right now.
