“For seven years Dak Prescott has been inconsistent” – Shannon Sharpe dismisses Cowboys’ playoff hopes after embarrassing loss to Jaguars

Most agree that the Dallas Cowboys were one of the hottest teams in football after their resounding victory over the Indianapolis Colts. However, after their implosion against the Jacksonville Jaguars, one NFL analyst is writing off 2022 being their year. Speaking on Undisputed, show co-host Shannon Sharpe equated their ability to make the playoffs to being as good as their defense.

After their loss to the Jaguars, the show host claimed they weren’t going to go much further. Here’s how he put it:

“I was told that this team is going to go as far as Micah and the Mauraders take them… Yeah, we got a large sample size on Dak Prescott. He is inconsistent. For seven years Dak Prescott [has been] inconsistent… That’s been established. But I was told this defense was going to be historic because all I heard was ‘2000 Ravens’, these great, great defenses.”

He continued, claiming the Cowboys’ defense had been patting themselves on the back too much:

“Bruh, y’all need to start worrying about being historic and worried about playing the game. You had a 17-point lead. You had a 14-point lead left about a month ago and you gave that up. Not a historic defense to me.”

Dak Prescott-led Dallas Cowboys hit a wall against Trevor Lawrence’s Jacksonville Jaguars

At the half, the Dallas Cowboys had a comfortable lead of 21-7. However, the second half flipped the script for the team. The team slowed down on offense and their defense opened up. The result was the Jaguars storming back, scoring 27 points in the second half. Meanwhile, Dallas scored only 13.

The game went into overtime tied at 34 points and the Jaguars scored the game-winning touchdown. Prescott completed 23 of 30 passes for 256 yards, three touchdowns, and two interceptions. Trevor Lawrence completed 27 of 42 passes for 318 yards, four touchdowns, and one interception.
