6. Dak Prescott, QB, Dallas Cowboys (Last Week: Unranked)
With six touchdowns and one interception through two games, Dak Prescott and the Dallas Cowboys were able to rebound on both sides of the ball in Week 2, beating Washington. While Prescott and the Cowboys typically get a ton of hate in the media, this team might be for real, especially if that defense can find a way to be average.
Prescott and the offense ranked 7th in points scored per game last year, and the veteran has always been able to be a high-volume, MVP-caliber player at the positin. He simply knows how to play the game better than most and is marvelous pre-snap and in the pocket.
While people want to point and laugh at the Cowboys lack of recent playoff success, you can't deny how excellent Prescott is. For the time being, he lands firmly inside the top-10 in our MVP power rankings.
5. Kenneth Walker III, RB, Kansas City Chiefs (Last Week: 5)
Kenneth Walker's production to this point is out of this world, and it simply can't keep up this frequently. Walker already has 56 touches through two games. Twenty-eight touches per game is simply unsustainable, so in the coming weeks, the Chiefs will need to simply not give him the football as many times.
Walker is on pace for 476 touches, which would go down as the second-highest single-season total in the history of the league. He's never seen more than 255 touches in a season, but as of now, he's led the charge on offense for Kansas City.
He's averaging 145 yards per game through two games and is also averaging a very healthy 6.2 yards per attempt. If the Chiefs continue to play well on offense, and Walker is still able to produce despite what will surely be a decline in touches, he could get some MVP love and might even be able to end the year as a legitimate candidate. His injury history is slightly concerning, so this could be a player who falls in these rankings as 2026 rolls on.
