What happened: Dak Prescott clarified his postgame criticism regarding late-game execution, stating he plans to be more vocal with Brian Schottenheimer during games when adjustments are needed. Prescott previously called for greater late-game aggressiveness after Dallas failed to push downfield on its final overtime drive.

Why it matters: The Cowboys hold a 3-5 record and sit 13th in the NFC standings, putting mounting pressure on the offense to execute in high-leverage moments. Establishing sharper sideline communication between the franchise quarterback and play-caller remains vital for Dallas to keep its postseason hopes alive.

By the numbers: In 2026 through 8 games, Prescott has completed 197 of 302 passes for 2,046 yards with 14 touchdowns and 5 interceptions.

What to watch: Dallas looks to rebound and correct its late-game offensive execution in Week 10.
