Ex-Giants Star Doesn’t Hold Back on Criticism of Cowboys QB Dak Prescott

The former New York receiver had some strong claims about Dallas quarterback Dak Prescott.

Former Giants standout wide receiver Plaxico Burress is not a believer in Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott. Not only that, but he believes Dallas fans are in store for a stretch of overall disappointment when it comes to their franchise quarterback.

Burress, who joined The Carton Show, discussed Prescott’s upside and the great debate of whether the signal-caller can win a Super Bowl. In short, Burress is selling all of his stock in Prescott taking steps forward in any major category.

“I believe [Dak Prescott] reached his ceiling as a quarterback with the Dallas Cowboys … they can win, but they won’t win a championship,” Burress stated.

"Dak Prescott has reached his ceiling as a QB with the Dallas Cowboys. The Cowboys won't win a championship with him."

It's a strong statement from Burress, and the debate over whether Prescott can bring a Super Bowl to the Cowboys remains a hot-button topic.

While Prescott has posted a 61–36 record in 97 games dating back to the 2016 season, he’s also completed 66.6% of his passes for 24,943 yards, 166 touchdowns and 65 interceptions. The dark cloud over the Cowboys and their quarterback is a 2–4 playoff record and his numbers have dropped a bit across the board in the postseason.

In six playoff games, Prescott has completed 63.4% of his passes for 1,559 yards, 11 touchdowns (an average of less than two per game) and five interceptions.
