“Obviously, I was pissed,” Dak Prescott said. “But they got back on their feet and realized that this person was close to us and left us. But we were all responsible. We looked at ourselves in the mirror and individually, we couldn't do anything more.” If we all think about this together, we will continue to improve and overcome this problem. There's no doubt about it. ”
For Prescott in particular, he couldn't find any momentum until the final offensive drive, and the curse of the offense in the second and third quarters fell on his shoulders, as did the rest of the offense. His momentum gave him the lead for a time, but it turned out he wasn't enough in the end.
“Most of the time we had to go back and spell out each play. There were times, even good plays, where we felt we could have done more,” Prescott said. “For me, quarterbacks are judged on wins and losses, so even if we lost, we could have done more in that way, trying to make a play here or there, getting out of trouble here or there, whatever that is. Well, I'm going to continue to critique my game that way.”
With a game against the Detroit Lions coming up on Saturday night, a shortened week at The Star has brought a lot of reflection, but now they have another chance to beat a quality opponent. There are two games in the Cowboys' favor, but they still have a chance to find the consistency they've lacked over the past two weeks.
“We are evaluating the schedule here, but in the same sense, we have to do more,” he said. “It's about looking at yourself in the mirror and taking responsibility. We know where we want to go and now we have two more weeks of commitments. After that we have to make sacrifices. So we… You have to be willing to make sacrifices.''I understand that I have to play with a back-to-the-wall mentality to be ready now. ”
