'I'm A Realist!' Dallas Cowboys QB Dak Prescott Predicted To Have Worse Season in 2024 - By His Brother

Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott had one of the best seasons on record by a Dallas signal caller last season, but can he repeat?

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott had a phenomenal season last year, leading his team to a playoff berth on the heels of a third-straight 12-5 mark.

But there are some who don't think that pace is sustainable for another year.

One of the so-called "doubters" is Prescott's own brother, Tad, who told the I Am Athlete podcast that people shouldn't have those same expectations in 2024.

"I'm a realist. The only reason I say worse is because, in order for him to be better, he's an MVP. He's a first-team All-Pro, and he’s a Super Bowl champion," Tad said. "I mean, Dak’s second-team All-Pro, second in MVP voting, and leader in touchdown passes [last season]. So the only way you can get better than that is to do what I just said."

One I Am Athlete host, Brandon Marshall, disagreed, saying he thinks Prescott will have a season similar to the beginning of his 2020 campaign before he broke his ankle and was lost for the season. Over five games that year, Prescott threw for 1,856 yards and nine touchdowns to four interceptions.

Last season, Prescott set career marks with a 69.5 completion percentage, a 105.9 quarterback rating and added 36 touchdown tosses, just one off his career best. So expectations for him to have a repeat performance are high, especially considering he's in a contract year along with head coach Mike McCarthy.

While Prescott and the Cowboys have found regular season success recently, deep playoff runs have escaped them. Last year, Prescott threw two interceptions in a 48-32 Wild Card loss to the seven-seed Green Bay Packers.

There's also the statistic that all four quarterbacks in the conference championship games last season were younger than Prescott. So the Super Bowl window may be closing ... for Prescott and the Cowboys.
