Dak Prescott Is The ‘Manager’ Of The Cowboys’ Rock Band

October 8, 2026

Colin Cowherd likened Dak Prescott to the manager of a wildly popular rock group, saying he keeps the Dallas Cowboys together while the rest of the roster runs wild. The team sits second in the league for total points but trails every other club in offensive snaps, averaging just over 30 points per game as Prescott has thrown for 1,065 yards, eight touchdowns and one interception through four contests.

Dallas secured a 34-30 victory over the Houston Texans in Week 4, with Prescott engineering the decisive drive and connecting with CeeDee Lamb for the final‑minute winning score. Cowherd noted that Prescott has navigated personalities such as Dez Bryant, Ezekiel Elliott, George Pickens and Micah Parsons, as well as the franchise’s tumultuous ownership under Jerry Jones.

He also criticized the coaching staff, suggesting they fall short of the elite standards set by peers like Sean McVay. Since Prescott took over in 2016, the Cowboys have posted the league’s highest‑scoring offense despite the off‑field drama.
