STACKED’s take
Prescott's 96.2 rating and pressure struggles underscore offensive inconsistency.
Cowboys QB struggled under pressure with concerning efficiency metrics. Against Arizona, Prescott completed 19 of 29 passes for 195 yards, one touchdown and no interceptions, finishing with a 96.2 passer rating and four sacks for 27 yards. The source notes: 'Prescott cannot escape criticism simply because Schottenheimer's play-calling was questionable. The quarterback has to be better, particularly when opposing defenses bring pressure.' Dallas managed only 168 net passing yards, and the offense went backward in overtime. The blitz has become a troubling issue for Prescott, with Arizona keeping life difficult for him throughout the afternoon. The larger problem is that Dallas has not found a consistent answer when defenses disrupt its protection. The source emphasizes: 'Prescott needs to recognize pressure, get the ball out and make better decisions, while Schottenheimer needs to help him with formations, personnel and play-calling. Neither has consistently done enough.' In overtime, after Arizona went three-and-out, Dallas had a chance to win with a field goal but managed three plays and lost five yards before Josh Sweat sacked Prescott on third down.
