No one expected the match to result in a difference of 32 points. Considering both teams have a reputation for being formidable, the 42-10 defeat was quite surprising. This unsatisfactory team performance, especially Dak Prescott’s, risks the QB’s job security.
There have been speculations regarding the matter, and some even think that Prescott would get replaced by another quarterback. This topic was on trend sometime before the match, but now the defeat against the 49ers made it resurface.

Will Dak Prescott get replaced?
The match between the Cowboys and the 49ers was so miserable that the 49ers fans were chanting for the backup quarterback Trey Lance. The speculations about Prescott’s replacement with the backup QB resurfaced. It started back in August 2023. As per some reports, the Cowboys had considered trading for Lance.
However, the rumors did not bother Prescott; he said he had no “room to get sensitive.” After the underwhelming match, even the commentators commented that this defeat could give Lance the opportunity to take the spot as the starting quarterback. Do you think that Dak Prescott’s job security is at stake?
