Dak Prescott was back on the field this past Sunday, but he did not look as sharp as we remember him from last season. Even still, he did just enough to will his team to victory.
On social media, he received a ton of criticism for his play, and even had some people calling for Cooper Rush to be put back in.
Ben DiNucci hates everything about that. The former Cowboys quarterback took to Twitter and lashed out at Prescott’s many critics expecting him to play out of his mind soon after his thumb injury.
“It amazes me the disrespect Dak gets on here. Completes 80% of his passes with no turnovers and people act like he’s supposed to go 47/51 for 537 yards and 6 Tds his first game back after breaking his thumb,” DiNucci tweeted.
