On Sunday night, the Dallas Cowboys were handed a crushing defeat by the San Francisco 49ers with a final score of 42-10. While the loss undoubtedly sent shockwaves through the Cowboys’ fan base, Dak Prescott, the star quarterback of “America’s Team,” bore the brunt of criticism for his lacklustre performance.

Right after the defeat, criticism came in handy for Prescott as the former NFL tight end showed no mercy and pointed him out as a straightaway denominator. Shannon Sharpe, known for his outspokenness, expressed himself with full blow after the Cowboys’ loss on Sunday night.

Shannon Sharpe, a former NFL tight end turned sports analyst, was quick to weigh in on Prescott’s performance. Sharpe didn’t mince words when he criticized Prescott, suggesting that turnovers seem to be a recurring issue for the quarterback. He went on to say, “What happens to Cowboys’ offence when their defence doesn’t give them the scoop to score.” Sharpe’s comments point to a troubling pattern that has emerged in Prescott’s career.

Sharpe’s criticism, while harsh, raises a valid question: Is Dak Prescott the common denominator in the Cowboys’ losses? Adding to this Chad Johnson said, “Do you know what I also saw tonight? We have one of the most prolific NFL receivers in, CeeDee Lamb.” “The 49ers would be able to dictate that,” Chad added.

Dak Prescott has been in the spotlight after the defeat row, especially against the 49ers, as the Cowboys took a heavy hit with a score of 42-10. Prescott’s performance was far from his best, with him throwing three interceptions. This game has been described as arguably the worst of his career. It’s like he had butterfingers that day or something.

Now, this has led to some chatter about Prescott’s future with the Cowboys. His four-year, $160 million contract runs through the 2024 season, and there are whispers of a possible extension. Despite all the speculation, Prescott is staying put. He’s committed to the team and trusts his agent and the Cowboys’ management to handle contract negotiations.
