Dak Prescott, the quarterback for the Dallas Cowboys, has been inconsistent most weeks, but he has significantly reduced his interceptions. As one NFL journalist puts it, “Don’t expect him to throw one tomorrow.”
The excitement is building as Dak Prescott and the Cowboys, fresh off a narrow win in Week 4, gear up to face the formidable defense of the Pittsburgh Steelers on prime time television.
Looking at the Dak Prescott odds, the journalist believes that the best bet is for him to avoid throwing any interceptions on Sunday, October 6. In the journalist’s analysis, he highlights the fact that Prescott has been taking care of the ball this season, only throwing one interception in four games compared to 10 pick-less games last year.
Although the Steelers have already racked up four interceptions this season, it is noted that those were mostly against lesser quarterbacks like Kirk Cousins and Bo Nix. In contrast, more skilled quarterbacks like Joe Flacco and Justin Herbert were able to avoid throwing picks against the Steelers.
The journalist emphasizes that Prescott is a higher caliber passer than those who have struggled against the Steelers in the past. Furthermore, with Micah Parsons missing from the Cowboys defense, the Steelers rookie quarterback, Justin Fields, may have more opportunities to exploit Dallas’s weaknesses, especially in the rushing game.
In terms of offensive support for Prescott, emerging receiver Jalen Tolbert has been gaining momentum, while the absence of Brandin Cooks is expected to open up more opportunities for him. Tolbert’s improved Open Score and Average Separation Score highlight his progress as a reliable target for Prescott.
With all these factors in consideration, the journalist is confident in Prescott’s ability to continue his trend of protecting the ball and making smart decisions on the field. It will be interesting to see if Prescott can live up to these expectations in the upcoming game against a tough Steelers defense.
