Dak Prescott Could Match Cowboys Legend With Sunday Win
Listen to the story
Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott has a chance to make history this Sunday. A win would tie him with Roger Staubach for second place on the Cowboys' all-time win list, a ranking of quarterbacks with the most career victories for the team.
The Cowboys will take on the Baltimore Ravens in a special game held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Games played outside the United States have become more common in the NFL in recent years, but this matchup is being called historic due to its stakes and location.
Former Super Bowl-winning quarterback Russell Wilson has shared his thoughts about the game. Wilson said he believes Prescott is ready to explode, meaning he expects Prescott to have an outstanding performance. Wilson went further, saying he thinks Prescott will 'go crazy' during this important match.
Roger Staubach remains one of the most respected figures in Cowboys history. He led the team to multiple championships, and being mentioned alongside him shows how much Prescott has achieved during his time as Dallas's starting quarterback.
Fans and analysts will be watching closely to see whether Prescott can secure the win needed to reach this milestone. A victory would not only tie him with Staubach but also add another meaningful chapter to his career with the Cowboys.
