7.8 adjusted yards per attempt

6.9 yards per attempt
7.1 adjusted yards per attempt

Wentz deserves some benefit of doubt, with a depleted set of wide receivers last year while Prescott operated with a full complement of weapons.

Diving a little deeper, with 2019 as an easy comparison since Prescott and Wentz both played all 16 games. Going further, Pro Football Focus had the Eagles ranked No. 1 and the Cowboys No. 4 in their offensive line rankings at the end of the 2019 regular season.

Prescott sack rate: 3.7 percent (596 pass attempts)
Wentz sack rate: 5.7 percent (607 pass attempts)
