After the Cowboys lost last week, an absurd storyline called for the benching of rookie Dak Prescott in favor of Tony Romo.
After Dallas' win Sunday over surging Tampa Bay, those calls should be put to rest, according to Dez Bryant.
"Half of these people that run they damn mouths they just stat players, they don't understand football, the philosophy of football," Bryant said after the game. "I'm talking to the fake Cowboys fans, I'm talking to the bandwagon (fans), I'm talking to everybody. First off, just jump off. We lost one game, we're 11-2. Like, come on man this guy put us in this position."

Prescott played well in the 26-20 win over Tampa Bay, completing 32 of 36 passes for 279 yards with no turnovers and a touchdown on the ground. Bryant says performances like this are why the rookie deserves to stay under center.
"You can't name too many rookies that went 12-2. Name them. I'll wait. You can't," Bryant said. "Fake fans, back up. Get back."
