After a devastating loss against the Aaron Rodgers-led clan, the Dallas Cowboys surely wallowed in sadness. Not only was it a heartbreaking game, but Stephen A. Smith grilled the leading QB, Dak Prescott, for his sub-par performance.
The Cowboys were in a great state when they faced the Packers. They were 6-2 and had won an impressive game against the Chicago Bears. They also had a bye week, which afforded the players to rest and relax. On the other hand, were the Packers, who were glum because of their five-game losing streak.

Fans expected the Cowboys to win. But they didn’t. They started off poorly on the offense. Prescott led the Cowboys to two consecutive three-and-outs and started the game 0 for 4. He threw two interceptions which resulted in TDs for Green Bay.

The Packers ended their bad luck and defeated the Dallas Cowboys in the ugliest fashion. Although losing in a game where one had a 14-point lead deserved criticism, it was a little different this time.
Smith started out calmly. He did not poke fun at the play-calling ability of the team, nor did he talk about the penalties. In fact, he admired Micah Parsons because, according to him, he was the best on the roster. What bothered him was the two-time Pro Bowl QB, Dak Prescott.

After Smith criticized the team for not getting their money’s worth, the billionaire owner, Jerry Jones, stepped in to save his prayer. The ESPN’s First Take commentator called the 29-year-old the team’s “weak link.” Jones said, ““I can say that’s not correct,” Jones said on 105.3 The Fan. “The reason that I – not the reason, that’s unfair to Dak and all the players on the team – but the strength that I look at our chance to win a championship … is Dak. I don’t think that’s accurate.”
