Dak Prescott just etched his name deeper into Cowboys history, throwing his 249th career touchdown pass Sunday against the Commanders and claiming the franchise record all for himself. That’s a huge moment for any quarterback, and for Prescott, it means passing a legend like Tony Romo in the record books.
History Made in a Win
The record-breaking toss was a 24-yard dart to CeeDee Lamb late in the fourth quarter, putting the exclamation point on a dominant 37-20 Cowboys victory. It was the cherry on top for a guy who already owned most of the career quarterbacking records for Dallas. After the game, Prescott was rocking a Roger Staubach jersey, showing respect to the greats who came before him. He kept it real, telling reporters he was “blessed, honored,” and that “records are meant to be broken.” What’s even wilder? He broke this record against the very team he threw his first career touchdown against, “ten years ago or so.” Talk about coming full circle!
“Just the Beginning” for Dak
Prescott didn’t just break the record; he talked about what it means and what’s next. He said it was “definitely humbling, something I don’t take for granted,” especially with the “great history of this organization” and the quarterbacks before him. He was “Super, super honored. Super thankful. God’s great. Not taking it lightly.” But here’s the kicker, the part that should have Cowboys fans hyped: he wants to “double” it. He was clear, saying, “it’s just the beginning.” That’s the kind of fire you want to see from your QB.
Prescott isn’t just celebrating a past achievement; he’s looking straight ahead, hungry for more. You know he’s going to keep slinging it, trying to add a ton more touchdowns to that ledger.
