With Dallas struggling in nearly every facet of football in Week 6, the Cowboys suffered a <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/cowboys-news-jerry-jones-firm-stance-coaching-change-week-6-loss">humiliating 47-9 loss to the Lions</a>.</p><p>Such a loss usually gets pinned on the stars of the losing side, and it was no different for the Cowboys this time, with quarterback Dak Prescott getting called out left and right by fans for his forgettable performance under center. Of course, Cowboys fan Skip Bayless <a href="https://x.com/RealSkipBayless/status/1845602848333025395" rel="noopener">had things to get off his chest</a> after seeing his beloved Dallas embarrassed at home.</p><p>“I never thought I’d rather have Jared Goff than Dak Prescott … but I do now,” Bayless posted on X (formerly Twitter). “It has come to this.”</p><p>Bayless <a href="https://x.com/RealSkipBayless/status/1845605768810070381" rel="noopener">did not stop there</a>.</p><p>“The Highest Paid Player in Football has been the starting quarterback for four straight home games in which the Cowboys were blown out by halftime,” Bayless added in a separate post on X.</p><h2><b>Cowboys QB Dak Prescott’s play not matching his massive extension deal</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/Cowboys-1.jpg"><figcaption>Mandatory Credit: Andrew Dieb-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>It can be recalled that Prescott got the massive extension deal he wanted just before the start of the 2024 NFL regular season, as he inked a four-year deal worth $240 million with the Cowboys.</p><p>The expectation that comes with that kind of expensive contract is huge, to say the least. However, it doesn’t seem like Prescott’s play is living up to the amount he inked prior to the season.</p><p>That was very much on display in the Lions game where the former Mississippi State Bulldogs star connected on just 17 of his 33 throws for 178 passing yards and zero touchdowns. Prescott got intercepted twice and sacked four times for a loss of 26 yards. Dallas’ offense looked disjointed with Prescott running the show. While the Cowboys got their chances in the red zone, they failed to succeed on any of their three tries inside the Lions’ 20-yard territory. Moreover, Dallas was just 3-for-13 on third-down situations.</p><p>As a whole, the Cowboys generated just 251 total yards from scrimmage, which painfully pales in comparison to the 492 total yards that the Lions slapped Dallas’ defense with. Jared Goff easily was the better quarterback in the game, having thrown for 315 passing yards and three touchdowns with zero interceptions on 18-of-25 pass completions.</p><p>Prescott, who now has three multi-interception games through six weeks in the 2024 season, has no place to go but up after such a poor showing on the field. He and the Cowboys will have a long break to address their issues, with Dallas having a bye in Week 7. They will emerge from their lengthy rest in Week 8 for another tough test against the San Francisco 49ers in Santa Clara on Oct. 27.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott <a href="https://x.com/WerderEdNFL/status/1845629232560443799" rel="noopener">told reporters</a> that practice is the key to the team’s success.</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Interesting that how hard players are practicing continues to be an issue.

Now, his streak of three seasons with 12 wins is in jeopardy as the Cowboys already have three losses. His players speaking out about how practice needs to be better is probably not great for his future as Dallas’ head coach.</p><p>This was the biggest game of the Cowboys’ season thus far as they hosted the NFC title-hopeful Detroit Lions. Last year, Ceedee Lamb had an iconic game as Dallas beat the Lions on a controversial call. This year, Dan Campbell’s squad came to Texas and smoked the Cowboys.</p><h2><b>Can the Cowboys turn this season around?</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/Dak-Prescott-with-Dallas-Cowboys-2.jpg"><figcaption>Kevin Jairaj-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>The good news for the Cowboys is that the Washington Commanders lost to the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday. Jayden Daniels has resuscitated that franchise and has them in first place in the NFC East one-third of the way through the season. Their defense, however, has not been spectacular, and that could catch up to them down the stretch.</p><p>The New York Giants and Philadelphia Eagles both have their issues but remain in contention for the division crown. The Cowboys have played one division game so far, which means they have plenty of time to fix their practice problems. They also have plenty of time to get healthy, which is a big issue for their defense.</p><p><a href="https://clutchpoints.com/cowboys-news-demarcus-lawrence-ir-prompts-sign-former-bengals-pass-rusher">Micah Parsons and DeMarcus Lawrence both missed</a> the game against the Lions after they suffered injuries in Week 4. The Cowboys were able to hold on to that game against the Giants and beat the Steelers last week. The Lions took advantage of the absences and gashed Mike Zimmer’s defense for 40 points.</p><p>The Cowboys can certainly turn this season around, and it starts with a well-timed bye week in Week 7. They come back with a massive road game against the San Francisco 49ers, and their problems have to be fixed by then.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

They have to find stars in the third, fourth, fifth rounds. Not good players, they’ve got to find stars. Do what Pete Carroll did when he got to Seattle, find Richard Sherman in later rounds or Kam Chancellor,” Cowherd boldly declared.</p><p>“Because Dak, unlike Patrick Mahomes or Lamar Jackson, there’s no proof he can elevate solid players; that’s not what he is.

Simple: he just isn’t good enough to elevate a team <a href="https://Twitter.com/TheHerd/status/1844814346133848106" rel="noopener">due to his on-field play and contract</a>.</p><p>“For what they’re paying Dak moving forward, the Dallas Cowboys, with an eighty-one-year-old general manager, have got to nail draft picks. They have to find stars in the third, fourth, fifth rounds. Not good players, they’ve got to find stars. Do what Pete Carroll did when he got to Seattle, find Richard Sherman in later rounds or Kam Chancellor,” Cowherd boldly declared. “Because Dak, unlike Patrick Mahomes or Lamar Jackson, there’s no proof he can elevate solid players; that’s not what he is. He needed Amari Cooper in his Prime, he needed Zeke in his prime. Or Zack Martin and Tyron Smith in his prime. Or CeeDee Lamb and somebody else in his prime, that’s what he needs.”</p><p>Harsh? Maybe so, but do you know what? It’s not like Prescott really has a ton of tape to dispute Cowherd’s claim either, as he really has had quality depth around him as a pro. If the Cowboys do fall apart moving forward, it will largely fall on his shoulders.</p><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/Dak-Prescott-being-sacked-by-the-Packers.jpg"></figure><h2><b>Colin Cowherd believes the Cowboys have one intriguing option in 2024</b></h2><p>So, if the Cowboys can’t win without Prescott having a deep depth chart, what can the team do to fix things? Well, considering they lost out on Derrick Henry in 2023, Cowherd is intrigued by one option that could be on the table.</p><p>“Again, did I mention the Owner is going to be 81, maybe 82 pretty soon right? Or is around that age? And that general manager/owner holds weekly press conferences to enflame situations and force the head coach and quarterbacks to answer to stuff that’s silly,” Cowherd noted.</p><p>“Now, I have suggested that Derrick Henry was the solution, but they ran out of money and couldn’t make $8 million be possible last season, so they had the worst running back room in the league. There are those who are saying, what about Davante Adams? Very interesting.”</p><p>Are the Cowboys an Adams trade away from being good? Eh, that beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but if the Cowboys do start to slide and need a serious infusion of talent to get things back on track, throwing a call the Las Vegas Raiders’ way isn’t the worst idea imaginable.</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">"I think this slow regression will officially begin."<a href="https://twitter.com/colincowherd?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@ColinCowherd</a> sends a warning ahead of Cowboys vs. Lions <a href="https://t.co/IseyruwEBY">pic.twitter.com/IseyruwEBY</a></p><p>— Herd w/Colin Cowherd (@TheHerd) <a href="https://twitter.com/TheHerd/status/1844814346133848106?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">October 11, 2024</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></figure><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

But Prescott made sure it <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/cowboys-news-skip-bayless-shocked-reaction-dak-prescott-steelers">didn’t matter in the win-loss department</a> by engineering a late game-winning drive. However, the duo tried to clarify the viral exchange in the Dallas Cowboys’ Week 5 contest.</p><p>Lamb said he wanted a <a href="https://x.com/jonmachota/status/1844467584365953177" rel="noopener">different type of pass</a> in that situation, according to a post on X by John Machota of The Athletic.</p><p>“CeeDee Lamb confirmed that in the sideline video from Sunday night, he was telling Dak Prescott: “Jump balls, Four. Jump balls and I got you.”</p><p>And Prescott <a href="https://x.com/JonahJavad/status/1844467660538708425" rel="noopener">verified the situation</a>, according to Jonah Javad.</p><p>Cowboys QB Dak Prescott on what CeeDee Lamb said to him Sunday night after throwing his 2nd INT: “[CeeDee] literally said, ‘Jump ball, 4. Jump ball.’Y’all can read lips to save y’all’s lives.”</p><h2><b>Cowboys WR CeeDee Lamb had a tough night</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/Dallas-Cowboys-WR-CeeDee-Lamb.jpg"><figcaption>Charles LeClaire-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>When Lamb catches only five of nine targets, it’s typically not a good night for the superstar receiver. And when he finishes a game with 62 yards and no touchdowns, that’s more evidence things didn’t go his way.</p><p>But to think there’s a problem between Lamb and Prescott is quite silly. Lamb is one of the most targeted receivers in the NFL. Prescott is feeding him constantly. There seems to be no reason for the Cowboys’ Lamb to ever be unhappy with Prescott.</p><p>Of course, the exchange might have been misinterpreted because of a previous sideline tiff between the receiver and quarterback. This one came during a Cowboys’ loss to the Ravens. After the game, Lamb tried to <a href="https://x.com/NickHarrisFWST/status/1838731399987405304" rel="noopener">clear the air</a>, according to a post on X by Nick Harris of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram.</p><p>“CeeDee Lamb on his relationship with Dak Prescott after the two were seen exchanging passionate words on the sideline on (Sept. 22): “Our relationship, if anything, has gotten stronger. Don’t let what’s out there fool you. We’re brothers to the end. We know that we’re all we got, and I tip my hat off to him. I got the utmost respect for him. I look at him as a brother.”</p><p>Lamb got a late start in 2024 as he held out for a new contract. But he suited up in Week 1 for the Cowboys, and has produced 25 catches for 378 yards and two touchdowns on the season. That tracks out to 1,285 yards, which is well off his pace of 1,749 yards last year. But it’s still a good total and would be the third-highest of his five-year NFL career. One down note so far for Lamb is touchdowns. He has only two, which puts him on a pace for only seven. That would be the lowest since year No. 2 in the league.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>
