To see Dak Prescott and Tad Prescott smiling from a hospital bed after the year they've had personally tells you everything you need to know about those two men and how they think about life.
Dirty business. Brett Maher went to the hospital visits today spent time with some sick kids. Got on the bus with some teammates and after arriving at The Star he was cut.
Dak Prescott apologized. Emotional loss, caught up in the moment, we get it. But in 2022 Cowboys need to focus less on the refs. The head coach needs to set the tone on that.
Dallas thought it would be playing this weekend and it’s not. Blame is everywhere but Dak Prescott is the right guy for this franchise. Does it guarantee a title, no, but QB1 isn’t the major problem. Can he play better? Sure. But he’s not alone in that.
Zeke Elliott: "We the Cowboys man, we used to the disrespect. People always got something to say about us but I mean, fuck 'em. All we care about is what’s in this locker room and what's in our building. We don't really care about the outside noise."
Stephon Gilmore on when AJ Brown called him old: "I was mad. I was going to show him. That's the only thing I could do. I'm still here and I think I did that today."
Micah Parsons is the 2021 NFL Rookie of the Year and the Defensive Rookie of the Year, chosen in voting conducted by the Professional Football Writers of America (PFWA).

Micah Parsons on his health: "I'm good enough to play my game and people can't tell the difference, you know. I think me at 60% is better than most peoples 100s. I don’t care where I'm at. I just want to play."
Cowboys 6th round pick, DT Quinton Bohanna when asked about the noise in the background during his conference call with reporters: "Those my aunties and cousins they country. They country as hell."
For the first time since the 1976 season, the Cowboys will wear a red stripe on their helmets to honor our country’s armed forces and Medal of Honor recipients at the Salute to Service in Sunday’s game against the Broncos.
So Randy Gregory has been suspended almost every year he’s been a professional and gotten paid by the team. So now all of a sudden the Cowboys don’t want to pay him if he’s suspended or fined. Ok.
KaVontae Turpin on the TDs: "This is for my boy Jeff (Gladney). He died before I came to the Cowboys and the Cowboys were his favorite team. Once I got comfortable, it was him looking down on me. I'm just blessed to do this for my boy."

@SportsDayDFW
"I am a lifelong Cowboy fan and I raised the kid a Cowboy fan. At five years old he told me he will be a quarterback for the Cowboys. I don’t think God gives you those types of gifts to make them incomplete."

Flu bug has swept the Cowboys this week. Joe Thomas and Ben Bloom have it. Justin March has a respiratory infection, Jordan Lewis and Xavier Woods just recovered from it. Cowboys gave Dak Prescott some medicine as a precaution for any issues.
Dak Prescott was selected as an alternate for the Pro Bowl but decided against playing a source said. Prescott wanted to rest his body after being in rehab since October 2020.
We’re not supposed to get personal with players, cheering for them etc., but we have some good guys that we do cover. Amari Cooper is one of those guys. For Rex Ryan to call him a turd is unprofessional and just doesn’t jive with the Cooper a lot of us have dealt with.
Dak Prescott was asked how throwing went today: "Solid. Ask the receivers." Told they said he had some pop on his throws; "I always got some pop on my balls. I'm not going to throw if I ain't got pop on my balls."
Former Cowboys LB Anthony Hitchens has a desire to return after spending 4 years in KC. Cowboys seek a LB in FA or draft. Can Hitchens and Parsons work together?
Dak Prescott completed this unbelievable sideline pass to Michael Gallup for about 40 plus yards. It was one of the best passes I’ve seen Prescott throw in my last three years on the beat.
With Mike McCarthy saying the Cowboys have interest in Shaq Leonard, a source close to the situation says Leonard will visit the Cowboys this week. A specific date hasn't been finalized.

I thought Dak Prescott was alright yesterday. His coordinator didn’t help him much and the receivers had an uneven day. I would like to see Dallas take more deep shots but Prescott did what was needed to win that game.
