Dallas Cowboys’ Dak Prescott Confident in Lamb, Pickens, and Eyes Chiefs Clash asโค Season Pivotal
Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott โexpressed unwavering confidence in โwide receivers CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens, andโข running back Javonte Williams, as the team โขpreparesโค for a critical Thursday night matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs. The Cowboys currently hold a 5-5-1 record, and Prescott emphasized the urgency โof winning every remaining game.
Prescott addressed โconcerns surrounding Lamb’s recent performance โฃagainstโข the philadelphia Eagles, whereโค the โขreceiver struggled with dropped passes. “Huge game,” Prescott said of hisโ expectations forโฃ Lamb onโ Thursday. “Just go back and look at the career, right? โขAny game that maybe he’s not done to his standard or hadโ a โdrop here or been โa frustratingโ game, the โขway he’s responded has been unquestionable. I know early in thisโฃ year, it wasโ the same way from the first time we played them to โhis next game, โขIโ don’t expect thisโค to be any different.” He pointed to Lamb’s response after โคkey drops in Week 1 against the Eagles,when he followed up with nine catchesโ for 112 โyards โagainstโข the Giants.Lamb also rebounded from โan injury sustained โคin Week 3, recording five catches for 110 yards against the Commanders upon his return.
prescott’s confidence extends to Pickens, praising his ability to win contested catches.”If he’s one on one, he’s not covered. Not in my mind anyways,” Prescott stated. โ”I think โwith the proper ball, any DB outโค there, just his size, โhis ability to go up and make a play.It’s not for just him, it’s for CeeDee as well. You get a guy one-on-one with those guys, I have so much confidenceโ in our โคguys going to make theโฃ play.”
Looking ahead to potential roster โคmoves, Prescott also voiced โstrongโ support โfor retaining running back Javonte Williams, who will โฃbe a โfree agent this offseason. “A thousand percentโฆ” prescott said when askedโ about Williams’ โขfuture with the team. “hell yea. โคHow crucial he’s been inโ this offense, โฃhow great of a dude he is, โhow great of a โteammate heโข is.Aโ quiet guy, but when heโข speaks it’s โขdefinately heard.Anything he does is felt. He’s an โขvital piece to โwhat we’reโฃ doing โrightโ now.”
Despite discussing future possibilities, Prescott stressed the team’s immediate focus. “We got to win every game at this โpoint,” he said. “The Philly game doesn’tโฃ meanโ anything right now. Nothing that’sโ happened up to this point realy means anything other thanโ just putโ us in a position to be must-win games.”
