Dak Prescott believes the Cowboys are close to competing with the Eagles
Dak Prescott praised the Philadelphia Eagles for earning their championship but emphasized that the Dallas Cowboys are close to matching their level. He acknowledged the Eagles' success while expressing confidence that Dallas can compete with them.
"I feel like we compete with the Eagles and beat them for the most part when we play them. I don't want to say check the record when they're the guys holding the trophy right now, so credit to them, they've earned it and they deserve it by all means. But yeah, very close," said Prescott.
In the 2024 season, the Cowboys were beaten badly by the Eagles in both games, with losses of 34-6 at home and 41-7 away, totaling a 75-13 point difference. Prescott was injured and missed both matchups, so the Cowboys played without their star quarterback. However, in 2023, with Prescott healthy, the two teams split their season series, each winning one game, showing how much closer the competition is when Prescott is on the field.
Despite the Cowboys' recent playoff struggles, with a 2-5 record and no progress beyond the divisional round, Dak Prescott remains optimistic about their future. He believes in the team's potential, especially with the hiring of Brian Schottenheimer as the new head coach. Schottenheimer, who previously worked as the Cowboys' offensive coordinator, is seen as a key factor in the team’s development moving forward.
