Not even football experts can say they expected the results of Sunday's Super Wild Card Round Playoff Game between the Dallas Cowboys and the Green Bay Packers. Green Bay blew out Dallas 48-32 in a game that was not as close as the score indicated. It was another exciting season that was punctuated with an early playoff exit for Dallas. 

While there is much handwringing to be done and changes to be made, there is no question that Dak Prescott played at a high level for most of the season. Even better, he brought the heat every week with an impressive rotation of Air Jordan cleats. Below is the FanNation Kicks list of Prescott's top ten cleats worn during the 2023 NFL season.
