Dallas Cowboys QB Dak Prescott stays efficient, poised in primetime victory

ARLINGTON, Texas — Sure, the Bears were missing several key defensive players, but was Dak Prescott really going to have another turnover-free game, especially in the national spotlight?

All the rookie did under the bright lights at AT&T Stadium was light up the Bears’ defense, completing 79 percent of his passes and throwing his first NFL touchdown in a dominant 31-17 win.

“I thought he executed well, threw the ball well from the pocket, made a lot of big-time throws, threw the ball well when he was moving around, made some plays with his feet, just made a lot of good decisions, handled the game well,” said head coach Jason Garrett.
