Dak Prescott and the Dallas Cowboys won't be taking any momentum into their first playoff opener on the road in 16 years.
Instead, they'll spend all week answering questions about whether they've just set themselves up for more postseason disappointment — 27 years after they last made it as far as the NFC championship game. wasn't what Dallas had in mind going into a"Monday Night Football" wild-card game next week at Tampa Bay .
Prescott considers himself above such concerns, but the reality is a career-worst seven-game interception streak that's the longest for a Dallas quarterback in 18 years. He threw pick-6s in three of the last four regular-season games. Prescott's accuracy was perhaps the worst in his seven seasons, and the numbers showed it: a career-low 37.8% completion percentage and a season-worst passer rating of 45.8.
"Something that as much as you want to burn the tape and move forward, there's a lot we can learn from and get better and use this tape."The Cowboys blew out Philadelphia 51-26 going into the playoffs even though the outcome didn't matter. Then the offense went back to sputtering in a 23-17 wild-card loss to San Francisco at home.
