The Dallas Cowboys, having missed the playoffs for the second straight season and the fifth time in Dak Prescott’s 10 years, have not reached the NFC Championship Game since 1995, marking the longest drought in the conference. Despite a current record of 6-8-1, Prescott has guaranteed improvement for 2026, emphasizing his desire to influence the team positively. He has thrown for 4,175 yards, 28 touchdowns, and earned a fourth Pro Bowl selection, but remains focused on team success over personal accolades. Prescott plans to play in the final two games, aiming to avoid back-to-back losing seasons.
