People are sleeping on the Dallas Cowboys. Despite their impressive record and some major wins over the past couple of weeks, no one seems to be talking about them as legit NFL contenders.
Truthbe told, itās hard to blame the doubters. Itās been a long while since Americaās Team dominated and looked the part, so it seems like people are just waiting for them to crumble and fall apart when it matters the most.
Thatās why star QB Dak Prescott wanted to make the most of yesterdayās win over the New York Giants to send a message, letting everybody know that theyāre not taking their feet off the gas this time.
NFL News: Dak Prescott Says Cowboys Are For Real This Time
āI am as confident as I can be and always have been, in this team,ā Prescott told the Fort Worth Star-Telegram. āAs I told yaāll earlier in the week, it doesnāt matter who says anything about what they believe in, I know what this team is capable of, especially with this defense that we have. We just got to continue to keep our heads down and take it one day at a time, one game at a time. As I said, we control everything we have right in front of us.ā
Theyāre Keeping Tabs On OBJ
Notably, the Cowboys are also reportedly keeping tabs on Odell Beckham Jr., whoās set to sign with a new team any time now. Heās back to full strength and is reportedly eyeing a contender as his next team:
āHe knows how much I want him here,ā Prescott said. āAnd a lot of the guys in this locker room have reached out on their own in different ways ā to make sure he understands this is a team he can help. And we want him to come help.ā
āMutual. Honestly, itās mutual,ā the QB continued. āThatās the reason I said itās business. Itās more than just somebodyās feelings of wanting to be somewhere. I understand that will come into play, but Iām feeling like itās mutual.ā
Needless to say, adding one of the best wideouts in the league would make the Cowboys more of a threat out of the NFC East. But then again, they still need to prove that theyāre contenders and not pretenders.
