Getty Dak Prescott is creating Dallas Cowboys news by admitting the team should have scored 50 points against the Philadelphia Eagles.
Dak Prescott is not satisfied with the Dallas Cowboys’ 20-point victory over the Philadelphia Eagles. After the win, Prescott noted that the Cowboys should have had 50 points against the Eagles. Dallas scored 33 points but had four field goals in the victory.
“As I talked about my performance tonight, as I said, yeah, I was good enough to win, but I hold myself to super high standards,” Prescott told reporters on December 10, 2023. “And yeah, if I play my best game we’re putting up 50 out there. And so, that’s not going to change, and I’m going to keep pushing for that. That’s the work that I put into this thing. That’s the preparation that I do.”
Prescott was not trying to provide the Eagles with added motivation, but the star clearly has confidence against Philly. The Cowboys quarterback appeared to catch himself a bit by going on to credit the Philadelphia defense for prompting Dallas to kick four field goals.
“They did a great job on defense,” Prescott added. “Don’t get me wrong, that’s a good team over there and they did a great job. They had a good plan of trying to make us go the long way. Make me take it underneath. Had jumpers early in the game, tipped ball. A couple of passes were a little off.
“Yeah, just here and there. So, credit to those guys. But as I said, yeah, I did enough to win. But because my expectations are on that common goal for this team, I always want to play to my best.”
